Tristan shook his head as he stared at Felix in the wheelchair. “You're like a brother to me. How could I
bear to see you die?”
“Mr. Tristan, you—” Felix was moved. “Am I really that important to you?”
Rendered speechless, Tristan decided to ignore him. You're really pushing your luck there.
“Stop it, you two! We're so glad that the both of you are okay.” Charles and Sean let out sighs of relief.
They were incredibly shocked to see Tristan and Felix drenched in blood previously.
“So, who was the culprit that harmed the two of you so badly? I won't forgive them!” Charles declared
vehemently, vowing to crush the person who did that.
“Keep this incident under wraps for now. We'll talk more after I'm discharged from the hospital.”
Their opponent was not someone to be underestimated. They would likely suffer a loss if they made a
rash move.
“Rest well, Mr. Tristan. Lie down, rest, and don't worry about anything else. Leave Lombard Group to
me! Felix, you too. I will also take good care of your company.” Sean declared.
Currently, two of them should only focus on recuperating and not worry about anything else.
“I knew I could count on you!”
This was the first time Tristan had taken a leave ever since he first took over Lombard Group.
While one would assume that the people on top like him enjoyed a carefree life, little did they know how
much hard work went on behind the scenes.
“All right. Felix, you're an injured person too. Go rest!” Since the man was also injured, he should not
remain here.
Upon hearing Arius' words, Ysabelle immediately went over and pushed Felix's wheelchair.
“Uncle Tristan, take good care of yourself. I'll send Felix back now.”
Tristan was utterly speechless. This little girl. Is Ysabelle even aware of how much she likes Felix?
As Sean and Charles had other matters to attend to, they also departed. Soon, only Tristan, Sophie,
and Arius were left.
“Arius, you may leave.” Why is this man so obtuse? Everyone else had already left. I want some alone
time with Sophie!
Arius harrumphed at Tristan's suggestion and said indignantly, “Mr. Tristan, I was worried that Sophie
would be sad if you kicked the bucket! Otherwise, I won't even be here. What a joke! How dare he
attempt to chase me out!
Once again, Tristan was rendered speechless. What a fearless man.
“Arius, I don't like that phrase.” Even if Tristan was no longer in great danger, Sophie disliked hearing
that particular phrase.
Arius cleared his throat. “Okay, okay. I'll stop and take my leave now.”
Finally, Tristan and Sophie were the only ones left in the room.
“Come here.”
Sophie went over and held Tristan's hand. “What's wrong? Are you thirsty? You mustn't drink water
now. If you're thirsty, I can use some cotton swabs—”
Shaking his head, Tristan laced his fingers through hers. “Don't worry. I'm not thirsty. I apologize for
worrying you.” I'm so sorry for causing you so much worry.
“Tristan, you haven't recovered. Don't think about anything for now and just focus on getting better,”
Sophie said. We will solve the other problems somehow.
“Okay. You should get some rest too.”
Tristan realized that the past two days had been an ordeal for Sophie when he saw the dark circles
under her eyes.
His world was one that was filled with unknown dangers. He loved her, and therefore, he did not want
her to shoulder such a burden.
Alas, there were some things that were out of his control.
“I'm okay. I want to stay here with you!” Sophie insisted.
Tristan's life was no longer in danger, but he really scared her this time. This was not the first time she
had performed surgery on him. Previously, he had been an unimportant person, so she did not care if
he lived or died.
However, that was not the case this time. Tristan had become the person most important to her. Sophie
had been terrified while she was performing the operation.
“I'm really fine. Look, I'm all good. So, don't worry.” Tristan could only imagine how terrified she had
been of him.
Sophie lay down on the side of his bed.
“Tristan, I'm not as naive as you think. There are many things that I can help you with,” Sophie said. In
any case, she no longer wanted to experience that ever again.
Tristan felt his heart clench.
“I will stand by you when things are smooth sailing, and I will be with you when you're facing
hardships!” Sophie was capable of that. Hence, they could fight alongside each other.
Tristan was undoubtedly moved when he heard those words.
My beloved Sophie. You do not retreat in the face of danger and even want to fight alongside me. I
must have done countless good deeds in my previous life to meet my soulmate. “Okay. Let's work hard
together!” he said.
Satisfied with his answer, Sophie beamed.
“By the way, Soph. Can you hire a caregiver?” It was too burdensome for her to do everything all by
herself.
“No! I refuse to hand you over to someone else!” Sophie put her foot down when it came to this matter.
“But—”
“Is it because I didn't take care of you well enough? Tell me if there's anything you need.” Did I not do a
good job?
“No, I only wanted to wipe my body.”
Tristan was slightly germophobic. It had been three days since he last showered, and he could no
longer endure the feeling.
“Oh...” Sophie said in surprise. That was careless of me. “Let me help you!”
Even if the caregiver was an older woman, she still refused to let another woman lay eyes on Tristan's
body. Not even a male caregiver was allowed to look at him.
“All right,” Tristan agreed.
Sophie immediately went to prepare some hot water. She wrung the hot water from the towel and
wiped his hands. After that, she proceeded to undo the buttons on his hospital gown and carefully
wiped his upper body.
Tristan could see the seriousness and care in her eyes.
Sophie was truly a remarkable girl. He had known that he wanted to hold her in his heart from the
moment he had met her.
Nevertheless, she was the person who was currently taking care of him.
Occasionally, Sophie's cool fingers would come into contact with his body, and the sensation made
Tristan feel like a beast. He was already in such a condition, and yet, thoughts of pouncing on her filled
his mind.
It must be because her expression is too alluring. That must be it!
Sophie wanted to concentrate on her task, but Tristan's gaze was so passionate that she could not
ignore him even if she wanted to. She lifted her head and met with a pair of scorching eyes.
It made her flush red.
“Tristan, get ahold of yourself!” You're only making it harder for yourself.
“Help me.”
