Chapter 923 Pair Up
Ysabelle immediately suggested, “Let’s go to Blossom Garden, then. The food there tastes better.”
Georgina was truly blessed.
Despite how unreliable Arius seemed, he was unexpectedly dependable in a relationship.
When Arius arrived, Georgina naturally got into his car while Ysabelle entered Tristan’s car. Sophie sat with Ysabelle in the backseat.
Everyone had been cautious around her lately, but she was actually doing fine.
After a while, Tristan’s phone rang. He answered the call and put it on loudspeaker.
“Mr. Tristan, I heard that you guys went to try on the wedding outfits today. I wanted to join you for the wedding photoshoot, but it seems like I can’t make it now.”
“That’s all right. It’s just a photoshoot, but you must come back for the wedding.”
“Of course! We’re best buddies, so I’ll do everything I can to go back to attend your wedding ceremony!”
“Felix, I’m being serious here. Fandar is quite dangerous, so be more careful. Many armed forces had gathered at Fandar at that moment, and a war was imminent.
“Don’t worry. I’ll survive! By the way, how’s Ysabelle? I heard she’s sick.”
He actually made the phone call because he was concerned about Ysabelle, as there was no one around to care for her now that he was abroad.
At the mention of her name, Ysabelle subconsciously clenched her fists. I can’t believe this man…. Is it really dangerous there? He went to Fandar because of me, right?
“She’s a pampered young lady, so what could possibly happen to her? You don’t need to worry about her; just take care of yourself. Make sure you come back safely, got it?”
“Mr. Tristan, don’t say that Ysabelle is and always has been a kind and nice person. She’s not spoiled at all.”
“I can’t believe you’re still defending her at this point. Do you really love her that much?”
“I do. I really love her. I love her to the core.” He didn’t know who he was uttering that last sentence to.
Tears instantly welled up in Ysabelle’s eyes. Felix is such a terrific man, but I’m not good enough for him. I don’t deserve the kindness he’s showing me.
“All right, I got to go now. Bertram and I have some matters to attend to. After we finish dealing with everything here, I’ll go back.”
An armed conflict broke out there, so Felix and Bertram had to go and check out the situation.
Ysabelle panicked after hearing the gunshots. It’s genuinely hazardous there. Before Felix ended the call, I clearly heard gunshots. “Uncle Tristan, is it perilous at Fandar? Why did you let Felix go if you know it’s dangerous there? Can you ask him to come back, please?” Uncle Tristan has so many subordinates, so why can’t somebody

else go! Why does it have to be Felix?
“Ysabelle, you’ve already broken up with him. It’s not your place to worry about him anymore.” Tristan ignored her request. Felix is already at Fandar. What’s the point of her regretting now!
Ysabelle turned to look at Sophie. “Sophie, Fandar is so dangerous. Can Felix make it?”
Ysabelle knew Felix must be capable since he had served Tristan for so long. Otherwise, Tristan would’ve dismissed him early on.
Nevertheless, after learning how fraught with danger Fandar was, she couldn’t help but feel worried.
Sophie put her arm around Ysabelle’s shoulder, gently embracing her. “Calm down, Ysabelle. Felix is highly competent. He’ll be able to take care of everything there.”
Felix was naturally formidable. Tristan would never have agreed to let him go to Fandar if he wasn’t capable enough to survive.
“Besides, he volunteered to go there. This matter has nothing to do with your uncle Tristan.” Sophie didn’t want Ysabelle to misunderstand Tristan.
“How could he volunteer to go there? What if something bad really happens to him?” Ysabelle didn’t dare to imagine the consequences.
She bit her lower lip, stopping herself from saying anything else.
“You should remember this lesson. Felix is genuinely fond of you, but you can’t treat him poorly and take him for granted just because he likes you. Do you understand?” Tristan couldn’t stop himself from
lecturing her.
In his opinion, a man should indeed pamper a woman, but a woman shouldn’t go too far as to be inconsiderate of that man’s feelings.
“That’s enough. She’s already upset, so quit chiding her.” What’s the point of saying all these now?
Tristan fell silent since Sophie had spoken up. When they reached Blossom Garden, Mark and Sunny were already there. The other three band members had something to do that day, so they didn’t come.
When Sunny noticed Ysabelle’s reddened eyes, he immediately walked over and sat down beside her. “What’s the matter, Ysabelle? Did someone bully you? Let me know if someone did. I’ll help you teach that person a lesson!”
Ysabelle merely shook her head.
“Are you really fine? But you look like you’re on the verge of tears. Are you sure no one picked on you?”
“There is. Uncle Tristan picked on me!”
“Oh, so the culprit is Mr. Tristan. In that case, there’s really nothing I can do to help you. You know how scary your uncle is. I’m no match for him.”
If the culprit had been somebody else, Sunny might’ve been able to stand up for her.
Unfortunately, since that person was Tristan, Sunny could only mourn for her in silence.

Ysabelle glared at him. “Sunny, you’re such a lousy senior. Is my uncle truly that fearsome?”
“Of course. He’s terrifying.” He would glower at me whenever my eyes linger a few moments longer on Sophie. He’s the incarnation of a devil! Sophie doesn’t belong to him alone, so why can’t others look at her?
Everyone chatted with one another after ordering some food. Tristan poured Sophie a glass of warm water. “Here. Have some warm water. It’s been a long day.”
Trying on wedding dresses was a tiring feat.
It was still rather exhausting although they had others helping them out.
Sophie held the glass and asked, “Can Felix resolve the problems on his own? If he can’t, let’s go over and help him.”
If something really happened to Felix, Ysabelle would be heartbroken. I don’t want her to be sad.
“Nothing should go wrong since Bertram is there to assist him. Nevertheless, if he still hasn’t sorted out the situation there after we finish taking the wedding photos, I’ll go and take a look.”
Felix had been with him for so long, so Tristan figured Felix must be capable of taking care of those problems.
“All right, then. You should stop criticizing Ysabelle. She’s already in distress.” Sophie fathomed a breakup wasn’t necessarily one person’s fault.
Both parties must’ve made mistakes.
“Okay. I’ll stop. Tristan heeded Sophie’s words.
“By the way, now that Felix is not around and Ysabelle is one of the bridesmaids, we’re still short of a best man.” Although it wasn’t the official wedding, the best men and bridesmaids were required to be present for the wedding photoshoot-after all, the more, the merrier.
“Why don’t we ask Charles to pair up with Ysabelle?”
“No!” Ysabelle immediately refused.
“What should we do, then? Felix can’t return to the country for now.” Tristan glanced at her. “Alternatively, you’ll have to drop out of the photoshoot.”
“Fine. Who wants to be paired up with Charles anyway?” Ysabelle was against the idea of being paired with someone else, even if it was only temporary.
