If Tristan continued to stay single, William would start wondering if there was something wrong with his
son.
Tristan was rendered speechless.
“No matter what, you must meet them tonight. I've already promised them.” At William's age, nothing
else mattered as much as his children's health and happiness.
“I can't go tonight as I have something to do.”
“You always do. Why are you always so busy? You can never earn enough money.” William strongly
disagreed with his son's point of view.
“Dad, I'll say this once more. You don't have to stick your nose into my business. I can handle it myself.
Instead of causing someone else trouble, I'd rather stay unmarried for the rest of my life if I can't meet
someone I like.”
“What are you talking about? What do you mean you'd rather stay unmarried for the rest of your life?
How can you do that?” William was furious. “Tell me. Do you have a girlfriend already?” If not, you
wouldn't be so hesitant like this. It's just a regular meeting. Isn't it a trivial matter?
“I know what to do.”
“What do you mean you know what to do? I'm telling you, you must bring your girlfriend to meet me if
you already have one.” Why do you never take me seriously? I'm the head of the family here.
“That's enough. You should go travel with some friends if you have nothing to do.”
“Do you think I'm being nosy now?”
When Sophie arrived at the ninetieth floor, she was stopped by the secretary.
“Is Tristan still in a meeting?”
Sophie had just ended her sentence when the door to the CEO's office swung open. William exited the
office, and Tristan was right behind him.
With how sharp William's eyes were and the fact that Sophie was never a lady whose presence could
be easily ignored, the former stopped in his tracks upon seeing her.
He proceeded to say, “Hello, young lady. What's your name, and why are you here?”
Sophie was stunned. Great. I can't believe I just bumped into Old Mr. Lombard. If I had known earlier
that he was here, I wouldn't have come.
Suddenly, an idea occurred to Sophie, and she held up the coffee she was holding. “I'm here to deliver
coffee.”
William glanced at Tristan. A coffee delivery? Is there no coffee available in Lombard Group? Is buying
coffee from a shop outside necessary?
Sophie quickly passed the coffee to the secretary. “Sorry for the late delivery.”
The secretary accepted the coffee that was being handed to her and didn't know how to react.
After saying her piece, Sophie turned around and walked away.
“It's a pity for a young lady with such a pretty face to be delivering coffee,” William said after letting out
a sigh.
Hearing that, Tristan was at a loss for words.
It was Sophie's first time meeting William.
After getting downstairs, she went to have a seat at the cafe opposite the company building and
ordered a cup of coffee for herself.
She sat there until Tristan called her.
“Where are you? My dad has gone home. I'll come and meet up with you.”
“I'm at a cafe opposite your company. It's called Peninsula Cafe.”
“All right. Stay there. I'll come look for you now.”
Sophie waited for Tristan there.
Ten minutes later, Tristan appeared at Peninsula Cafe.
“I'm sorry. I shouldn't have come looking for you without calling you first.” He has always refused to let
me meet Old Mr. Lombard. This time, it's indeed my fault for being so careless.
“What are you talking about? Were you startled? I didn't introduce you to Dad yet because I'm afraid
he'll make things difficult for you. Don't overthink it.”
“Okay. What would you like to drink?” Sophie handed him the tablet.
Tristan ordered a cup of black coffee and accompanied Sophie to sit at the cafe.
“Do you have anything else to do later in the afternoon? You can go on with your work if you're busy. I
just wanted to visit you. There's nothing important.” Sophie simply felt a sudden urge to visit him at
work. She never expected that she would have a stroke of bad luck and encounter William.
“Don't worry. It's fine that you've bumped into him. I just don't want you to get upset. I can even
introduce you to him right now.” Tristan was determined to stay together with her for the rest of his life.
He just didn't want her to bear so many matters when she was still young.
“Did meeting him startle you?”
“Do you think I'm a coward? Besides, your dad isn't some kind of monster.”
“That's good to know.”
“Did he come to find you because something had happened? I can tell you were both in a bad mood
when you came out of the CEO's office earlier.”
“It's nothing. He's just here to rush me into marriage.” Since William had nothing else to do nowadays,
he would spend his days worrying about when Tristan and Sarah would find a partner and get married.
“Oh, I see.” Sophie didn't express any opinion on this matter. After all, she had no plans of getting
married at the moment.
She then asked, “Tristan, am I troubling you?”
“What are you thinking about? What is there to be troubled about? I will get married whenever I want
to.” Tristan held Sophie's hand. I must listen to my own thoughts on this matter.
“But I feel you must be extremely stressed out.”
“Well, just make it up to me properly then. I rejected my dad's request for me to go on a blind date.”
“Actually, it's fine even if you go,” Sophie said graciously.
Tristan didn't know how to respond to that.
“What's wrong? Are you angry? I really think you can go take a look so as to not make your dad
unhappy.”
“Why should I suffer just to make him happy? Besides, I already have a girlfriend. Isn't it wrong for me
to go on blind dates? Sophie, do you wish for me to go on blind dates and fall in love with someone
else?” This is ridiculous. It really makes me angry when she does this.
Sophie immediately shook her head. She cupped his face and replied in all seriousness, “Don't say
that. You're mine. Why will I wish for you to fall in love with someone else?”
Her words made him feel better.
That's right. I'm yours, and I will never belong to someone else other than you.
Since Tristan had another meeting to attend in the afternoon, he brought Sophie back to Lombard
Group and let her play video games there while waiting for him.
While Tristan was working, Sophie was busy playing games to relieve her boredom.
Just then, she received a video call from Arius.
“Why are you calling me at this hour instead of sleeping?” It's currently nighttime at Anglandur, right?
“I'm trying to match your time zone, okay? You really caused significant damage to Nicholas this time.”
Arius chuckled.
“I merely taught him a small lesson. Let's see if he still dares to do that to me again next time.” It feels
fantastic to prank someone without letting them know who did it.
“He's quite busy now, so he doesn't even have time to cause trouble for me.” It's only a while ago that
he kept insisting on capturing me.
“Well, isn't that nice? By the way, didn't you say you want to come back last time? Have you considered
it?” Sophie placed the phone on the stand to free her hands.
“I really wish to go back. But I'm sure you know this isn't as simple as it sounds. There's a lack of
manpower here currently, so I can't walk away so soon.” Barney was Arius' mentor. Now that there was
a lack of manpower there, Arius couldn't leave so easily.
“It's up to you then. Just make sure you've thought this through.”
There were people who couldn't do anything willfully, and Arius was one of them.
