Chapter 905 Kicked To The Ground
“Mmm-hmm.”
Given that Sophie had made her decision, there was no way he would interrupt her.
Yet he wasn’t going to let anything untoward happen to her.
Satisfied with the trust Tristan had in her, Sophie wrapped her arms around his neck and delivered him a kiss.
“Don’t worry. Just trust me.” She was already skilled in hypnosis.
“I’ve always trusted you.” He wouldn’t have allowed such brazenness if he didn’t.
Sophie’s kiss intensified upon hearing his words.
Whatever my decision, he has always supported me and has never wavered before.
As Ysabelle had been busy with her dance recently, Sophie didn’t tell her about the matter.
Upon Felix’s return, he followed her everywhere she went as if he was a stalker.
Unable to endure it any further, Ysabelle confronted him. “Felix, what’s wrong with you? Why are you following me everywhere?”
“It’s been a long time since I saw you, Ysabelle, replied Felix smilingly. “What am I to do? I realized I couldn’t forget you. Can we not break up? I’m really sorry for what happened.”
“Felix, let’s just take a break from each other. Even though you would pacify me every time I’m angry, you have no idea what you’ve done wrong. Even if we reconcile this time, it’s just a matter of time
before we break up again.”
Ysabelle had given the matter a lot of thought.
She wanted both of them to have the time and space to properly consider what kind of person the other
wanted as a lover.
“Ysabelle, do you really want to break up?”
Felix inched closer and gave her a hug.
“I do.”
“In that case, I respect your decision. When I’m not around, please take care of yourself, all right?”
Even under those circumstances, Felix maintained his gentle demeanor.
A burning sensation stung Ysabelle’s nose. I can’t go soft on him. I have to stay strong no matter what.
“In that case, I’ll send you home. We might have broken up, but I’m sure we’re still friends.” It’s probably not a big deal at all.
“It’s fine. I still have work to do with Sunny.”
With that, Ysabelle turned and left without sparing him another glance.
Thereafter. Felix took out a cigarette from his pack. After lighting it up, he sat in his car alone, smoking
He knew that he shouldn’t have said what he said, but he just couldn’t control himself back then
Truth be told, it was more of him needing to learn how to love someone better than an issue with Ysabelle.
Meanwhile, when Richard brought Butterfly to Nicholas, Butterfly couldn’t help but sneer at the sight of him.
“Do you know what you’re doing, Nicholas? How can you do this to me? Do you really think Sophie will do your bidding just because you are holding me hostage!” Butterfly was feeling upset, as she had been Sophie’s right-hand man all this while.
Little did she expect to end up being the latter’s burden instead.
“You should just get some rest.” Nicholas didn’t want to waste any more time with her, for he couldn’t care less about what others thought about him.
All that mattered to him was results.
“Don’t act recklessly, Nicholas. I’m telling you this sincerely. Loving someone doesn’t mean that you must have her. You should know when to stop. As he had saved her before, she didn’t want him to walk down the path of doom.
Her words ignited an insidious glint in Nicholas’ eyes.
“Butterfly, don’t speak as if you know me. You don’t. You guys don’t even believe that I have feelings for Sophie, but I do. In fact, I’m willing to do anything to bring her to my side.”
“Nicholas, plenty of people in this world have their love unrequited. Time will heal all wounds.”
Butterfly didn’t give up on convincing him.
“Richard, take her away. I don’t want to hear another word from her.” He had no intention of turning back from the path he had embarked upon.
“Nicholas-”
Before Butterfly could say anything else, Richard had taken her to another room.
“Don’t do this, Richard. As Nicholas’ subordinate, I’m sure you care about him. It will all end badly if you proceed with this. Nicholas has saved my life before, Richard, so I’m not out to harm him. I really want the best for all of you.
“You had better rest here, Ms. Sekelsky. No one can stop Boss once he has set his mind on something. If he wants Ms. Tanner, he’ll get Ms. Tanner.”
Richard’s obedience toward Nicholas was absolute. Regardless of how dangerous the task was, he would carry it out unconditionally as long as Nicholas willed it.
Just as Butterfly wanted to follow him out, she noticed that the place was filled with mercenaries. It was clear to her that Nicholas was prepared to risk everything in one shot.
“Richard-
However, the mercenaries outside blocked Butterfly’s way, stopping her from leaving.
“What are you doing? Do you know who I am? I’m Nicholas’ guest, and I’ll go wherever I want to!” Butterfly fumed.
“I’m sorry, Ms. Sekelsky. We understand that you’re a guest of the boss, but he wants you to rest, so please do so here. Don’t make it difficult for us.”
Without any warning, Butterfly slammed a kick into the mercenary’s leg
Despite the rage he felt, he had no choice but to endure it, for his boss did order them not to hurt Butterfly.
After being forced back into her room, Butterfly had no way of speaking with Nicholas anymore.
It was then that Richard returned to Nicholas’ side.
“Boss, now that we have kidnapped the target, what do you plan on doing next?” Padma had already arrived by then.
“We’ll just wait for Sophie to come. She’ll definitely be here, as she cares for Butterfly a lot.”
The perfect opportunity will present itself then.
“Boss. Sophie is really strong, and this is Tristan’s turf. I’m worried that we would suffer tremendous losses if they barge in here aggressively.”
“I will not change my mind regardless of the sacrifice or consequences.
That was all Nicholas had to say.
Right then, someone came in from outside.
“Boss, Ms. Tanner is here. She is waiting outside alone.”
The corner of Nicholas’ lips curled into a smile. She’s here, just as expected. I know her like the back of my hand.
“Mmm-hmm. Bring her in. Richard, how does my suit look? Do I look good?”
He had wanted to show his best side to Sophie.
“Boss, it looks good on you. You look fantastic.”
“Good.” Nicholas was finally satisfied.
When Sophie entered and saw Nicholas, she kicked him to the ground without any hesitation.
As her rage didn’t come as a surprise, Nicholas didn’t fight back at all.
