Slow Down
“No, that’s not what I mean,” Ysabelle quickly explained. “You’re our savior. If not for you, Felix would
have…
The very thought of that still made Ysabelle’s heart skip a beat.
“Sophie, from this point onward, we’ll do anything you ask of us,” Ysabelle uttered firmly.
“That’s enough. I don’t want to be in the way of your intimate moment. I’m going for a walk as I’ve
eaten too much earlier,” Sophie said.
The last time she had been at Fandar, it had been a hasty trip. She had not gotten the opportunity to
shop.
Since Tristan had something to work on, she was going to shop alone. At the same time, she was
going to check if Arthur and the others were done.
“Sophie, I’m serious. It’s really dangerous here, so you shouldn’t be running everywhere.” What if she
encounters robbers here? This place is unsafe!
“It’s fine. You don’t need to worry about me. I’m familiar with the area.”
“All right. Be careful, then,” Ysabelle relented. She knew that Sophie was stubborn, and no one could
convince her otherwise if she had already made up her mind.
“By the way, Felix still isn’t up for any vigorous activity, so do remember your limits,” was what Sophie
said before turning to leave.
Ysabelle’s face turned bright red at that.
“Felix, what does Sophie mean? Am I such an animal? You’re already in this state, so how can I
possibly…”
Wait a second, why does he look like he wants me to go wild?
“I don’t mind. Don’t listen to her. I’m fine and can totally go for three hundred rounds,” he earnestly said,
eager to see her go unrestrained.
Ysabelle’s face turned even redder.
“Stop joking, Felix. You’re still hurt.”
“Does that mean that we can do it once I’m recovered?”
What? How am I supposed to answer that? This man… There are some things that should remain
unspoken! It’s so embarrassing to hear it out loud.
Just as Sophie was about to head out, the guard stopped her.
“Ms. Tanner, where are you going? It’s dangerous outside, so you should stay put.”
Although they had already dealt with Kaarle, there were other forces around.
Even someone as capable as Felix had been captured. It’s best that a beautiful woman like Ms. Tanner
stays here.
Otherwise, she’ll be in trouble
“I’m going out for a walk. You don’t need to worry about me.”
“Ms. Tanner, it really is dangerous outside. Why don’t you stay in here?” the guard persuaded, worried
that Tristan would be angry.
Sophie frowned.
“Am I a prisoner?”
The guard shook his head immediately.
“I didn’t mean that, Ms. Tanner. I’m just worried about your safety. If you have to go out, please let me
send a few men to come with you.”
Everyone knew that Sophie was Tristan’s girlfriend, so they would never dare to offend her. Moreover,
he was only a guard; he had never seen how well Sophie could defend herself, so naturally, he was
worried.
“No need. I don’t like others following me.” Sophie did not wish to make things difficult for Tristan’s
subordinates either; all she wanted was a trip out.
However, the guard became even more anxious to watch Sophie leave.
“What do I do? How are we going to break the news to Mr. Tristan if anything happens to Ms. Tanner?”
“She should be fine, right? Maybe we should get someone to inform Mr. Tristan about this right away.
It’s not as if we can stop Ms. Tanner from leaving if she insists,” another guard said. They were just
guards, after all.
“Okay, stay here. I’ll go and inform him about the situation.”
They had done everything they could, and if something did happen later on, it would not be their fault.
Meanwhile, after Sophie went out, she took the keys to the SUV. After starting the engine, she drove
off.
She went to the village where Arthur and the others were at. Arthur and the rest had just executed
Kaarle so the villagers were excited to see the man who had been doing countless evil deeds dead.
He had slaughtered many of their family, and finally, they had killed their enemy. In their delight, they
were dancing and singing outside.
They thought, now that Kaarle is dead, no one will dare to lord over this place anymore.
Right then, car engine noises sounded out. Everyone tensed up. They were impoverished and did not
own cars, so they knew that the incoming person was not from the village.
Who is it?
Tensed, some even picked up weapons by their side.
Nevertheless, when they saw the young woman in the SUV, they put the weapons down again. Sophie
was a familiar face to them.
If not for her, they would have died a few years ago.
“Mr. Camidge, it’s Ms. Tanner.”
The villagers were thrilled to see their benefactor.
Although they were poor, they were individuals who understood gratitude.
Sophie parked the car outside before getting out of it and walking over to the rest of them.
“Ms. Tanner, it’s been a long time! I heard that you were the one who caught Kaarle too! You’re
amazing!”
“He’s right! Ms. Tanner, you’re our savior. Without you, I can’t imagine how our life would bel”
“Ms. Tanner! Ms. Tanner! Ms. Tanner!”
As soon as one person began chanting Sophie’s name, the rest joined in unison. Their gazes were
filled with gratitude toward Sophie, as they believed she was the catalyst for their survival and well-
being.
Arthur then walked over to Sophie.
“Ms. Tanner, we’ve executed Kaarle. He has killed many of our kins, and his death today is vengeance
for the lost souls.”
It was difficult to survive on this land.
Sophie nodded in acknowledgement.
“Be at ease, folks. Things will get better soon.” Those villagers were simple and kind people, and yet,
cruelty never spared them.
“Yes, you’re right. Things will get better. That was what the villagers believed in. Life was already tough,
and if they did not have any faith in the future, then they would not know how to keep living.
Soon, Sophie was drinking with the others.
The alcohol was the only thing they had left, but it did not matter.
That day was a day of celebration.
Arthur and Sophie sat next to each other.
Turning to Arthur, Sophie said, “Mr. Camidge, please ask the others to be at ease. Order will be
established here soon. By then, as long as everyone works hard, making a living here will not be an
issue.”
The people in the village did not ask for much in life.
All they wanted was a peaceful life.
Arthur filled a glass for Sophie.
“Ms. Tanner, I have complete faith in everything you say, and I truly believe that life will gradually
improve for us,” Arthur expressed. Despite the challenges they faced, they remained hopeful and
eagerly anticipated a brighter future.
Taking the glass from Arthur, she then toasted with him.
“Ms. Tanner, Mr. Tristan is your boyfriend, right?” Arthur abruptly asked.
