Chapter 367

“Don’t flirt with me, Sophie. I can’t handle it.” He was completely powerless in front of Sophie.

Even though all she had done was bite his finger, he had nearly lost control.

Sophie didn’t know what to say.

Fine, then. I’ll be more careful. It’s not like I was trying to provoke him on purpose.

Seeing the pitiful state he was in, Sophie picked up a grape as well and handed it to him. “You should

eat some, too.”

She couldn’t let him keep taking care of her. He had to take care of himself as well.

“Okay.” Naturally, he was overjoyed to see that Sophie was responding to him. He immediately opened

his mouth and nibbled her finger.

Sophie’s breath got caught in her throat.

After that, her face went red almost instantly. She finally realized what it felt like to have one’s finger

bitten. The inside of his mouth was moist and warm, which made all kinds of thoughts run through her

head.

“Let go,” she told him.

Tristan was clearly refusing to pull away. He wanted to let her know what it felt like for him earlier.

Right then, Felix came over to talk to Tristan about something and happened to stumble upon that

flirtatious situation.

Once again, he let out a sigh. Indeed, everyone has a different fate.

He was basically digging his own grave by going on the trip with them. It was just pathetic.

There was nothing else he could have done, though.

Both Sean and Charles were busy. Since he was the only one with some free time, he always went

with them. In addition, he was constantly confronted by reality.

When Sophie noticed that Felix was there, she instantly pulled her hand away with a blush. She then

acted as if nothing had happened at all.

Tristan was also speechless when faced with Felix, the third wheel.

Regardless, they were there to do business, so it wasn’t like he could disregard Felix completely. “What

is it?”

“I have something to ask you! Let’s talk about it over there,” Felix explained. He felt like he would vomit

and pass away if he had to witness them flirting with each other any longer.

Felix was still young, and he didn’t want to die just yet.

Tristan glanced at Sophie.

She cleared her throat. In a serious manner, she said, “Go ahead. I’m going to sleep for a while. I’m

quite tired.”

“Okay. Have a good sleep, then. Don’t worry. I’ll wake you up when we get there,” Tristan replied. The

flight to Anglandur was a few hours long, so they wouldn’t arrive there so quickly.

She nodded in response.

After that, Tristan took Felix further away and sat down.

“Aren’t you being a little too aggressive, Mr. Tristan?” Felix blurted. It was supposed to be an innocent

romance, and he couldn’t figure out when it had become so passionate.

“Aggressive? I don’t think so. Isn’t that how men and women typically interact?” Tristan questioned. In

fact, he had already restrained himself a lot.

Felix was rendered speechless.

All he wanted to do was sigh.

He wondered when he would get a girl of his own.

“Oh, right. When we get to Anglandur, we have to go to Norham first. The main issue is at the Norham

branch,” Felix informed.

He decided to brush matters regarding relationships off. Since he couldn’t get into one of his own, he

had better focus on work.

There was a long way to go, anyway. He was certain that his time would come.

One of the flight attendants served them some red wine. After pouring them each a glass, she was

about to leave when Tristan stopped her.

“Yes, Mr. Tristan?” she asked.

“Could you get my girlfriend a blanket? She might get cold sleeping on the plane.” Even when Tristan

was talking business, he never forgot about the sleeping Sophie.

“Understood, Mr. Tristan.” The flight attendant was incredibly envious of Sophie. The all-powerful

Tristan treated her like a princess and doted on her so much.

Thus, she proceeded to get a blanket for Sophie.

“Mr. Tristan told me to give this to you, Ms. Tanner. If there’s anything you need, please let me know,”

she stated in a professional manner.

“There’s nothing else. Thank you.”

Tristan sure was an outstanding man. He made her heart flutter all the time.

With him by her side, there was truly nothing she had to worry about because he would take every

single factor into consideration.

Sophie couldn’t help but look in his direction.

Meanwhile, Tristan seemed to have sensed it and shifted his gaze over as well.

Their eyes met.

For a moment, she felt as if she was in a trance and couldn’t snap back to reality for a moment.

In the meantime, Felix kept prattling before realizing that Tristan wasn’t listening at all.

He followed his gaze and once again felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head.

Are they serious? Mr. Tristan and I are all the way over here, yet they’re still able to flirt telepathically.

“I see that my presence is unnecessary, Mr. Tristan.” He really shouldn’t have gone with them. They

should have just gone alone. Then, I wouldn’t have to suffer like this.

“What nonsense are you spouting? Don’t worry. I heard everything you said,” Tristan uttered.

“Okay, then.”

Indeed, Tristan was skilled at multitasking.

“Is there anything else you want to say?” Tristan felt like he was wasting too much time over there.

Felix was at a loss for words. “Mr. Tristan, are you here on business or to date your girlfriend?”

“Why can’t I do both? Am I not allowed to date and do business at the same time? Do I have to choose

one of the two? Only useless people would have to make that decision. Someone like me can strike a

balance between those two,” Tristan declared.

Only immature kids would need to make a choice like that. I want both.

Felix was rendered speechless once again. All right. I guess I was just making a fool of myself.

After getting an understanding of the situation, Tristan already had a plan in mind.

“You should go rest for a while, too. There are still three hours to go.” After he said that, he got up to

return to Sophie’s side.

He had always been effective when it came to work.

The moment Felix told him what was going on, he already had a clear picture in mind.

Seeing how much of a rush Tristan was in, Felix couldn’t help but grin.

“Seems like love turns everyone into a fool,” he mumbled to himself. Felix was already at peace with it,

so he decided to let it be. When he managed to win Ysabelle’s heart, he would show off in front of

them, too.

What am I going to do? We’ve only been gone for half the day, and I already miss her. I wonder what

she’s doing?

She’d been getting close to the members of The Wheelers lately.

That was something that made him rather worried.

To be honest, Mark was quite a dangerous person.

Putting his handsome looks aside, he was also exceptionally talented at singing. On top of that, he was

Ysabelle’s idol. Felix was worried that she would end up liking Mark.

I can’t let that happen. I’ve to finish up my work as soon as possible so that I can watch over Ysabelle.

Sophie wasn’t in a very deep sleep. She woke up when Tristan walked over.

He sat down next to her and let her rest her head on his shoulder.

“It’s still early. You can sleep a while longer,” he stated.

It was quite a comfortable position. Sophie hummed in agreement. Knowing that he was beside her,

she shut her eyes and went to sleep.

Meanwhile, Alex presented some information in Anglandur.

“Boss, Tristan is already on a flight to Norham! Sophie is on the plane as well. She came along with

him,” he revealed.

Since he was working for Nicholas, he had to do whatever Nicholas told him to.

Nicholas, on the other hand, was smoking a cigarette. When he heard Alex’s words, he inhaled sharply.

“Let’s make a move. We’ll wait for them at Norham,” he instructed.
