Chapter 102 No Match For You

“Tanny?" Felix could not believe that he had just heard Tristan call himself that.Ysabelle thought, It

seems like Uncle Tristan is quite serious about his relationship with Sophie. It's my first time seeing

Uncle Tristan being so polite with someone. He's not even like that when talking to his own

grandpa!“Tanny, come and visit me with Soph when you're free.” Josiah truly liked Tristan, and he

felt that Tristan would be able to protect Sophie well.”Okay, Old Mr. Tanner. I'll definitely visit you

with Sophie when I get the chance to.”“Okay. Do take care of Soph."Josiah talked to Tristan for a

dozen minutes before asking the latter to return the phone to Sophie.”Soph, I think Tanny’s not a

bad choice. He's a hundred times better than Mason.”“Grandpa, he’s more than a hundred times

better than Mason,” Sophie replied. In fact, Mr. Tristan and Mason aren't even on the same level.

There's no need to even use the same standards to compare them."That's right. You're right!” Josiah

was at ease to hear Sophie say that.Regardless of how things were between Mason and Willow,

Mason was no longer associated with Sophie.Moreover, Josiah could see that Tristan was treating

Sophie sincerely, and that was enough for him.”"Remember to come and visit me when you're

free.”"Okay, I'll come and visit you in a few days.” Arius had not returned from Anglandur yet. Once

Arius was back, Sophie planned to find a chance to get her grandfather to go for a full-body

checkup.He still had to undergo the surgery, and Sophie was confident in Arius.Once the call ended,

Sophie sat down beside Ysabelle.”Does it still hurt?"Ysabelle chuckled. “Soph, I'm fine. It doesn't hurt

anymore."Although Ysabelle tended to act like a spoiled princess, the pain she felt was overcome by

her desire to protect Sophie from harm."Tsk. I wonder who was the one shedding tears when their

wounds were getting treated earlier,” Felix pointed out mercilessly.Ysabelle kicked his waist."D*mn it,

Felix. Are you trying to embarrass me?"“Look at how lively she is. She's fine. You don't need to worry

about her,” Tristan said nonchalantly.Ysabelle was speechless.Fine. I no longer exist in Uncle Tristan’s

heart as long as Sophie's around, then I guess I shouldn't embarrass myself further.”Okay. I'll go to

sleep if there's nothing else.”Sophie then stood up to return to her room.”Mr. Tristan, I've never seen

you being so humble and polite with anyone else. It seems like you're really planning to get

Sophie. Tristan ignored him.At that, Felix scratched his nose awkwardly.”To be honest, Sophie isn't a

match for you in terms of background.”It was highly likely that William would disapprove of them if

the two of them were to get together.However, Ysabelle was the first to voice her

disagreement.”Felix, what are you trying to say? Which part of Soph isn't a match for Uncle Tristan?

Even if one of them isn’t a match for the other, it would be Uncle Tristan not being a good match for

Soph. He's ten years older than her!” Ysabelle cried out agitatedly.Then, she belatedly realized that

her uncle was staring at her, looking as if he was about to murder her.Instantly, Ysabelle hid behind

Felix."Uncle Tristan, that isn't what I mean. It's just that...” she explained to her uncle.This is all Felix's

fault! Uncle Tristan looks so scary right now! What am I going to do? Sophie's already back in her

room, so no one can save me!“Felix, don't say something like this again. I'm the one with the final

say, and if I think she’s a match for me, then she’s a match for me.” No one else's words were going

to change Tristan’s mind."Okay, I got it."Felix had been working for Tristan for over a decade. How

could he possibly not know Tristan’s character?Unlike most people, the angrier Tristan was, the

calmer he appeared to be.At that moment, Tristan was livid, and it was because Felix said that

Sophie was not a match for him.”Go to bed.""Okay."Upon receiving Tristan's order, Ysabelle leaped

from the couch and rushed to her room.Oh, thank god! Thank god Uncle Tristan didn’t seem to

mind what I said. When the two men were the only ones left, Tristan asked in a nonchalant tone,

“Felix, am I old?"“Holy sh*t!” Felix was stumped. What's the matter with Mr. Tristan? Can he stop

scaring me? “Mr. Tristan, you're only twenty-eight! You're at the peak of your youth; you're at the

prime years of a man’s life!"“Peak of my youth?"“That isn’t important; what's important is that, Mr.

Tristan, do you know how many women are after you? I can't believe you just said that you're old.

Please stop scaring me!"“What's the point of having many women after me? I just want one."Felix

fell silent.If Jipsdale's female socialites hear what he just said, I wonder how many would choose to

jump off buildings. It's only now that I know Mr. Tristan is such a faithful and devoted man despite

the fact that I've worked for him for so many years.”Mr. Tristan, don't you think that you've fallen for

her too quickly? Could it be that you're only feeling this way because she saved you?"Am I you?

Am I someone who doesn’t even know whether or not I love someone?“Felix widened his eyes. Did I

offend him in any way? All I did was fall for Ysabelle! Forget it. I don't dare to retort him.The next

morning, Sophie woke up and went to get a glass of water. Just as she stepped out of the room, she

encountered Tristan.Sophie had just woken up, so she had a relaxed look on her face. As the collar

of her nightgown was too loose, the gown was slanted to one side, revealing her smooth shoulder

to all. Her pretty collarbones were a deadly attraction to Tristan.Upon seeing the man in front of her,

Sophie was abruptly reminded of how her house had two men staying in it.Just as she was about to

return to her room to change her clothes, Tristan pinned her against the wall behind her When she

was locked in place, Sophie lifted her beautiful eyes to look at the man, who clearly just woke up as

well.“Mr. Tristan...” Sophie voiced, and she was surprised to hear her own voice. It was not that she

was doing it deliberately.However, there was already a fire burning in Tristan’s eyes. Sophie's

morning voice sounded soothing and soft.Hearing that made the lower part of his abdomen tighten

as another part of his body awakened.”Ahem.” Sophie averted her eyes, not daring to meet his eyes

anymore.Tristan then lowered his head and planted a kiss on her forehead.Sophie bit her bottom lip,

wondering, Is he trying to add fuel to the fire?When the man saw the young woman bit on her pink

lower lip, he felt as if he had been electrified. Then, as he supported himself with one hand against

the wall, he used his other hand to pull her nightgown's collar together.Sophie’s heart was beating

quicker and quicker as he adjusted the collar for her.”Put on your clothes properly. I'm not as much

as a gentleman you think 1 am.” The truth was that Tristan had been holding himself back with great

difficulty.After a moment of silence, she replied, “Sorry. I've slept my mind away and forgotten that

you and Felix are here.”Sophie had been staying in that house alone recently, and since she had had

a good night's sleep the night before, she had completely forgotten that there were two men

staying in her house. Tristan then pressed a kiss on her lips as punishment.”Am I someone you'll

forget that easily?"Sophie was rendered speechless. Fine! Mr. Tristan’s quite petty. I did say I'm still

groggy.Right then, Ysabelle came out of her room and happened to see her uncle kissing Sophie as

he pinned her against the wall. Instantly, she panicked.What am I going to do now? Do I get back

into my room, or should I greet them as if nothing has happened?Nevertheless, before she could

come to a decision, Sophie spotted her.
