Pursuing Her

Chapter 638

Meanwhile, Sandra and Simon were picking some vegetables. Although the dining cost here was not expensive, the restaurant offered various kinds of vegetables to its customers, many of which were wild herbs.

The two soon filled their plates with all sorts of vegetables.

“Simon, are you okay? Actually, you don't have to be so sad. Sophie's boyfriend is so powerful. It's not shameful that you lost to him, right?”

All men would feel shame and inferiority in front of Tristan. A man like him was simply outstanding.

“I'm fine. Indeed, I'm not ashamed to lose to Mr. Tristan.” Besides, only a powerful man like Tristan is worthy of a woman like Sophie.

Other men were merely small fries.

Although he did feel a little upset, he wasn't ashamed at all.

His love had ended before it could even begin. He could only bow out of the competition when he learned that his opponent was Tristan.

The duo carried the plates of vegetables over. Meanwhile, Sophie had already placed the fish on the grill.

“Let's eat. It's getting late, and I need to take a nap later,” Sophie said, but she wondered if she would be able to fall asleep with a full stomach.

Tristan got some grilled fish for Sophie and said attentively, “You should eat more.”

Sophie had a small appetite, and Tristan thought that she should eat more.

Sandra was super envious when she saw how caring Tristan was toward Sophie.

Not only was Sophie's boyfriend handsome, but he was also very gentle and considerate. This made Sophie an object of jealousy for others.

“Simon, I'm tortured by their lovey-dovey acts.”

Simon didn't want to make any comments. He reckoned he shouldn't have gone there to have a meal with them.

“All right. You two help yourselves. I thought you said you wanted to eat BBQ? Why aren't you eating?”

“Relax. Since you are Sophie's friends, you are also my friends too.” Indeed, Tristan had a formidable aura, but they were just having a meal and shouldn't act as if they were walking on eggshells.

Sandra immediately served Simon a piece of grilled fish.

“Enjoy the food.” She hoped that food could lighten up his mood.

Simon nodded.

Tristan was at ease throughout the meal, although he looked quite out of place in the current setting. That was just how he was.

As long as he was willing to do so, he could easily adapt to the environment around him.

After the meal, Sandra and Simon went back to the dorm. Tristan commented while looking at their leaving figures. “Does Simon have a crush on you?”

Sophie's lips quirked into a grin.

“Maybe. Why? Are you jealous?”

“No. I'm not surprised that he likes you. I will have an exhausted life if I feel jealous of everyone who has a crush on you.”

Sophie held his arm, and the duo walked toward the car together.

The tweed, wool coats wrapped around their slender figures. Both of them had outstanding features and looked like perfect matches for each other. Their presence instantly commanded everyone's attention and envy.

When they reached the car, Tristan pulled the door open for Sophie and let her get in the car first. Then, he closed the door and walked to the other side, and got in the car.

“It's getting late. Do you still want to go back to rest?” There wasn't much time left for her to nap, even if she went back now.

“Yes. I don't have any classes in the evening. I'm going back to my condominium to write my thesis.” Her last thesis had been published and seemed to have won an award. She wasn't paying much attention to that, anyway.

It was now a norm for her to win awards from time to time.

Moreover, she didn't write those papers to win a prize but purely to share some of her thoughts and ideas.

“I see! Then let's head back together!” Tristan didn't seem to have anything to do in the evening, so he decided to hang out at Sophie's place.

“Aren't you quite busy lately? You should get to your business. I don't want to keep you any longer.” He really shouldn't spend more time accompanying her.

She was an adult and knew how to manage her time.

“I'm not that busy, just earning money. I realize now that money doesn't look as fascinating to me as before.”

“Do you know that your words would piss off those who are jealous of you?” Others were all working like a mule to make money, yet, a wealthy man like him was saying that earning money wasn't fascinating.

There was truly a vast difference between one human and the other.

“I'm merely telling the truth. Money is nothing but a number to me now.” Tristan spoke his mind.

Sophie nodded in agreement.

She was indifferent to the pursuit of money and felt content as long as she had enough to spend, despite her sometimes being a big spender.

To her, it was good enough that she was able to pay her bills from the money she had earned herself.

The two chatted while making their way back to the condominium. The slippers in the condominium had been replaced with plush ones, keeping their feet warm.

When Tristan bought that condominium, he had it renovated and redecorated. The whole place was installed with floor heating.

As the floor heating was turned on, the air in the room became warmer.

Tristan and Sophie proceeded to take off their tweed coats. Tristan was wearing a thin shirt without a tie. The first few buttons of the shirt were unbuttoned, revealing his sexy collarbone.

Sophie looked at him in a daze.

Truth be told, she had known him for quite some time, but she still felt the heavens were biased toward Tristan every time she looked at his perfect face.

A perfect man like Tristan was truly a masterpiece.

Not a single fault could be found on him.

As a result, he was the target of everyone's envy.

“What's the matter?” Tristan asked when he noticed Sophie kept staring at him. He wondered if there was something on his face.

Sophie stretched her hand out, and Tristan immediately grabbed it.

“What's wrong? I'll feel embarrassed if you keep looking at me like this.”

Sophie pulled him toward her.

“It's nothing. I was just thinking about why such a good-looking man would exist in this world. Furthermore, this man is my boyfriend too. He will even become my husband one day and the father of my child. It makes me feel so lucky whenever I think about this.”

It was the first time Tristan heard her saying words like that. He felt like he was floating on cloud nine just listening to her.

“I'm sure we will have a happily ever after. I will live in a future with you and our children by my side.” He was very excited about the future.

Sophie pulled him over before planting a kiss on his Adam's apple.

Tristan's Adam's apple was one of his most sensitive body parts. Yet, Sophie stuck her tongue out and ran it over the area. Tristan could no longer control himself and pressed her against the couch.

“Sophie, do you know what you're doing? Do you know that you are driving me crazy?” Tristan's voice was hoarse and full of lust. He could barely contain his desires any further. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

At the same time, Sophie could clearly feel the warmth and excitement of his towering body pressing against hers.
