Tristan slowly began feeling her up under the covers again. He had long since gotten familiar with
every single one of her sensitive spots.
Sophie melted helplessly at his every touch. She couldnt do anything except lie quivering beneath
him as he did whatever he pleased to her body.
He was completely entranced by every curve of her body. She almost seemed like his own personal
drug that he simply couldn't pull away from.
Nothing was more intriguing to him than mapping out every corner of her figure.
Sophie had never been a shy person, not even in the face of sexual acts. All of her reactions were
genuine and she didn't hold anything back.
The more she reacted, the further Tristan wanted to explore. He wanted to give her more and more
just to make her feel and react the same way.
The shower they had taken earlier proved useless after a few rounds of messing around.
Sophie looked at him coquettishly and said, âYou just wasted the shower we took just now.â
âYeah, that's right. I did. It's okay, though. I'll make up for it. How about I help you shower next?
Would that help?â
Despite having spent so much time in bed doing all sorts of things to her, he still had more than
enough energy to spare. He barely batted an eye as he picked her up bridal-style.
She felt safe and comfortable in his embrace, which was a feeling she particularly enjoyed.
She was lazy to act like she didn't want him to carry her, so she comfortably allowed him to serve
her.
He carried her to the bathroom and gently scrubbed at her skin and hair. He then dressed her in her
pajamas and carried her back out of the bathroom before drying her hair for her. His movements
were all so tender and loving that Sophie found herself closing her eyes. She was very relaxed.
âI'm really tired,â she said pitifully. If he didn't find a way to control his physical cravings, she might
actually pass away from exhaustion next time.
âI know. Donât worry. I'm not that much of a monster. You can rest now,â he said. He couldn't do
anything about the lust he felt for her almost constantly, but he decided to let her rest for today.
After all, they had spent a long time in bed. He didnât want to hurt her by accident,
He would never forgive himself if he hurt her.
Sophie finally relaxed at his assurance. She was completely drained and was no longer in the mood
for anything sexual.
Tristan tucked her in before he went for a shower. Sophie couldn't help but chuckle at the sight of
his retreating figure. No one could have imagined that Tristan Lombard, who had a reputation for
being aloof and arrogant, would have such a different approach to his marriage
Despite that, he still respected her. Whenever she said she was tired or didn't want to do anything
else, he never forced her otherwise. He never made her feel guilty for it, either. She was more than
content that
she had found such a good man.
She was already imagining the happy future they would have together. After all, she could tell that
Tristan really loved her.
He finished showering and finally lay down with her in his arms. He had found that he slept much
better when he could hug her to sleep.
She also slept much better in his embrace.
They never seemed to grow out of their honeymoon period. Another week passed in the blink of an
eye. They had been away for almost two weeks now.
Tristan felt reluctant to go back.
He enjoyed being in Miralaea. They were alone and no one came to bother them. They could do
whatever they wanted. The past two weeks had been full of good food, a good rest, and a good
time in general.
He didn't want to go back in the slightest.
However, he knew that Felix would probably go insane if he didn't return soon.
Lombard Group was a very big corporation. The fact that Northley Group was now added on to that
bui for the time being meant that they would have a lot on their plate.
Tristan was still full of longing even when they got on the plane.
âLet's go back. Why don't we spend a whole month here?â Tristan whined. He was really starting to
dread going home.
Sophie held his hand.
âWe can go anywhere as long as we're together, right? Even if we go back, things will still be the
same,â she said. The last two weeks had been great, but they had to go back eventually. Jipsdale
was their home, after, all.
She leaned against his shoulder.
âPromise me that you won't neglect me when we get back, okay?â He couldn't blame the fact that
Sophie was always needed by those around her. She was extremely talented.
âDonât worry. That will never happen. You're the most important person in my life. I would never
neglect you,â Sophie said. It was her first time realizing that guys needed to be coddled sometimes,
too.
After marrying Tristan, she found out that he had a childish side to him as well.
"Okay. I'll take your word for it.â
The two of them reached the Lombard residence after more than ten hours of traveling. Sophie felt
relaxed at the sight of those familiar surroundings.
No matter how glamorous or fun other places could be, home was still the best place for her. She
really did love her country.
William grinned widely at the sight of Sophie's return. All of his hope was riding on her shoulders
now. After spending such a long time together, he hoped that she was already bearing his
grandchild.
He couldn't wait for that day to come.
Sarah and Ysabelle were at home as well. They were ready to welcome Sophie and Tristan since they
heard the two of them would be coming home that day.
When they arrived at lunchtime, Sophie and Tristan joined the rest for lunch after washing their
hands.
âWas Miralaca fun, Sophie? I'll drag Felix there for our honeymoon once we get married if it lived up
to the hype,â Ysabelle said excitedly. She had never been to Miralaca
"Yeah, it's really fun! There are a lot of fun things to do. We bought a mansion there, so if you guys
decide to go, you have a place to stay,â Sophie replied.
Tristan shook his head. âNo. If she wants to go to Miralaea, then Felix should buy their own place
there. That mansion belongs to us. I don't want anyone else staying there.â
The mansion was full of Sophie and Tristanâs happy memories. He didn't want anyone else's
presence to spoil the special moments they had created there, and he didn't care even if it was just
Ysabelle and Felix.
"Why are you so stingy? Be a man! You're acting like a little girl. We'll only be staying there for a few
days. There's nothing wrong with that!â Ysabelle couldn't believe how petty he was being.
Tristan glanced at her. âI bought that mansion, so I have the right to decide whether I want you
there or not, right? Do you have something to say to that?â He didnât back down at all. He truly did
love Ysabelle, but he wasn't about to cater to her every demand. That was a promise he had made
to himself.
âGrandpa, Uncle Tristan is being unfair! Tell him to stop bullying me!â Ysabelle said. Tristan was
being way too petty. She simply couldn't stand it.
âDonât be so unreasonable, Ysabelle. Don't call Sophie by her name, okay? She's your aunt now.
Don't be so rude,â William said crossly. Sophie and Ysabelle may have been around the same age
and were rather close, but he didn't want Ysabelle to forget her place.
Ysabelle had always called Sophie by her name. Having to call her âauntâ was an extremely strange
experience.
