After coming out from the stadium, Tristan drove back to his condominium located near University of
Medicine.
It was already past one o'clock when he arrived at the condominium.
“Mr. Tristan, do you mind that I'm close to them?” Sophie asked. Everyone was aware that Mark liked
her, and she knew it too. However, she had no control over what others felt for her.
Tristan pulled her into his arms. “Do you want an honest answer?”
“Yes!” Since she inquired, she naturally wanted an honest answer, or else there was no need to ask in
the first place.
“No, I don't. I know you don't like him, and that's enough. You can't possibly have no friends,” Tristan
answered.
He was aware of The Wheelers' importance to her, so he naturally would not make an unreasonable
request of her.
Sophie was touched by his words. She leaned in and kissed his lips.
Tristan deserved it for being so considerate.
Tristan would never turn down her affection, so he deepened the kiss.
When their lips disengaged from the kiss, Sophie was already lifted to sit on the dining table, and
Tristan stood between her legs.
This position was very compromising without a doubt.
In addition, Tristan's eyes were filled with desire.
However, he managed to control himself at the very last second. He lowered his head to rest on her
chest as he panted lowly.
Meanwhile, Sophie hugged his head.
She should not have tempted him, knowing that he would not take the initiative to touch her, and right
now, she had to see him suffer. “Tristan—”
“I'm fine. Just let me hold you for a while longer,” he interrupted her. It was okay with him. He just had
to endure for a little while more.
Once she graduated, they would get married immediately.
After his breathing calmed down, he lifted her and went back to her bedroom so she could take a
shower.
Then, he also went back to his bedroom.
Even here, they did not sleep together and had separate rooms.
In the bathroom, Sophie's face was still red. When she thought of his passion, her heartbeat sped up
unconsciously.
She seemed to be looking forward to sleeping with him for the first time.
Sophie had only been in the shower for a short while as the electricity was cut off abruptly. At that
moment, her body was covered in soap bubbles.
The bathroom was dark, and she could not see anything. Sophie was at a loss.
Meanwhile, Tristan was done bathing and was reading a book on his bed. He did not expect the power
to go out at this hour.
When he remembered that Sophie was probably still showering, he immediately got out of bed. He took
his phone, turned on the flashlight, and then made haste to her bedroom.
As he expected, she was still in the bathroom.
“Are you done bathing?” Tristan asked while standing in front of the bathroom.
“No. I'm still lathered up!” Sophie felt helpless.
My luck is quite terrible lately. I just wanted to shower, and the electric supply stopped. This feels so
odd. Is this karma from bullying Felix too much today?
“Only the power stopped. I think there's still hot water. I'll pass you my phone. You should clean
yourself first.” He twisted open the bathroom door and passed his phone to her.
Sophie accepted the phone, and found a spot to put it on, then washed off all the suds on her body
quickly.
Thankfully, she had already finished washing her hair earlier. Otherwise, it would be more troublesome
right now.
During the whole process, Tristan stayed outside the door to accompany her. He did not make a noise
and only guarded her on the outside.
Tristan knew she was an independent girl. She probably would not be scared by situations like this, but
he still wanted to stay here and protect her.
After she was done, Sophie suddenly remembered that her clothes were on the bed.
Since it was so dark outside, it should be fine for her to walk out directly.
Therefore, she opened the door and walked out of the bathroom directly.
Naturally, she had already turned off the flashlight on the phone.
When he heard the noise, Tristan knew she was out of the bathroom. However, she was not using the
flashlight.
“Didn't I give you my phone? Did it run out of battery? It's too dark. You should be careful.” Tristan
reminded in concern. He would feel heartbroken if she got injured anywhere.
“I'm not wearing anything,” Sophie explained.
The air in the room turned thick with tension in an instant. He chided himself for forgetting that she
would always dress in the bedroom after showering.
The moment he thought of her bare body, Tristan felt aroused again.
He exclaimed, “Then, I'll go out first!”
Tristan stepped out of her bedroom amidst the darkness and also closed the door behind him in a
considerate manner. After he left, Sophie turned on the flashlight and wore the clothes she laid out on
the bed.
She burst out chuckling when she thought of Tristan's reaction earlier.
With the phone in her hand, she went to look for him. “Here's your phone.”
In the modern age, everyone would feel very insecure without their phone.
This was why she came to return his phone to him.
Tristan hummed. “Thanks. Come here. I'll dry your hair.”
She had just come out of the shower, so her hair was probably dripping wet. With the power supply cut
off, she would probably catch a cold if she went to sleep like this.
“Okay.” Sophie obediently sat there and allowed him to dry her hair. She seemed to be fond of him
drying her hair for her.
His movements were gentle, and the sensation of his fingers combing through her tresses was very
comfortable.
Tristan's expression was very serious as he dried her hair, and his actions were equally focused. He
made sure not to miss any part of her hair and only stopped once her hair was fully dry. “All right, you
can go to sleep now. You have something to do tomorrow, right?” Since it was already past two in the
morning, she would not have many hours left to sleep if she did not go now.
“Yes! You should sleep too. I'll go now.” After saying that, Sophie turned to walk away.
However, Tristan grabbed her hand and pulled her back. She fell into his arms.
He only let her go after hugging her for a while. “Okay. You can go now.”
At Central Hospital, Arius was almost fully recovered. The result of Sophie's research was amazing. It
completely negated all the side effects.
Arius believed he could be discharged from the hospital.
He felt as if he would be wasted if he stayed there any longer.
“Sophie, I'm fully recovered. Look at me! Aren't I doing well? Please discharge me,” Arius pleaded.
He felt pathetic.
In the past, Arius had the last say in everything, but now, he could not leave if he did not have Sophie's
approval. That made him very uncomfortable.
“Didn't I already say that you can't? That's enough. Stop struggling and stay in the hospital for a few
more days!” Sophie said.
The virus this time was not to be taken lightly, so they had to be very cautious.
“Dr. Smith, can't you discipline your mentee? She wouldn't listen when I forbade her from leaving the
hospital in the past. It's unfair that she's being so strict with me now!” Arius complained.
However, Barney would not even glance at him. “Listen to Sophie. Why do you talk so much
nonsense!”
“Huh? Dr. Smith, don't you love me anymore? Do you only care about Sophie now?” Arius retorted.
