Chapter 185 Lonely Nights
âAll right.â Charles had nothing else to say, for it seemed like he was really the only one who was
wasting his life fooling around."Ysabelle, what do you think of Charles?"Ysabelle blinked."Charles?
Isn't he a little too old?â Has he forgotten Charlesâ age, or has he forgotten my age?âOkay, Sophie
has started performing now, so quiet down.â Why are they being so loud instead of watching the
wonderful performance!Charles, Felix, and Sean all fell silent at that.The three of them could only
rub their noses awkwardly while looking at Tristanâs solemn expression.The concert began at eight
and ended at half-past eleven. Even after the last song, the fans were still glued to their seats, not
wanting to leave."Thank you, everyone,â said Mark, who had always been someone cool and
aloof. The Wheelers then bowed and thanked the audience.By then, the fans below the stage had
started crying.âThat's insane. Are fans that scary nowadays?"âHow is that insane? Every single
member in The Wheelers is amazing. They're worth going crazy for!â Ysabelle instantly
defended.âOkay, you guys head back first. I'll wait here for Sophie." Tristan did not have the patience
to keep hearing them talk nonsense.âLetâs go. It looks like we're doing nothing but wasting time
here,â Sean blinked at the others.Huh, someone doesnât want us here.âUncle Tristan, can I wait with
you for Sophie?â Ysabelle was still reeling in from the thrill of the concert. She had tons of things to
talk to Sophie about, and she really did not want to head back before meeting her.It's late, and the
concert was four and a half hours long. Do you think that Sophie still has the energy to talk to
you?"Being involved in the concert was a tiring job. Moreover, she had not even had the chance to
practice the songs before going on stage. There was no way she would not be exhausted by
then.âOh, you're right. I'll go back first then. Uncle Tristan, you have to take good care of
Sophie."Ysabelle could only force the words down her throat and leave with Felix. When Felix saw
how reluctant Ysabelle was, he grabbed her hand and pulled her into his arms so that no one could
crash into her.Ysabelle's face turned bright red at his gesture.âFelix, I can walk by myself."However,
Felix still did not let go of her."There are too many people here, and the fans are truly fanatics. I'll let
go of you once we get outside."Since he had said that, she did not insist. If she did, things would
become awkward.Thus, Ysabelle had no choice but to let Felix shield her in his arms and walk out of
the venue with difficulty amidst the crowd.Meanwhile, after Sophie changed out of her clothes and
removed her makeup before she went out, about to look for Tristan.To her surprise, Mark and the
others were waiting outside.Sunnyâs hands had yet to be treated.âSophie, your performance was
amazing today!â Sunny cried out. Indeed, no matter how much time had passed, Sophie was still the
same person as everâshe could perform wonderfully at any time and any place.However, Sophie
frowned when she looked at his swollen hand."Why aren't you at the hospital?âDidnât I ask him to
look for Arius at the hospital? Why is he so heedless about his condition? Is he planning to never
use his hand ever again?"It's fine. I can go to the hospital tomorrow to get it checked out.â Sunny
then scratched his head with his other hand.It had been too long since he caught a glimpse of her
performance, so he was reluctant to leave. He wanted to watch her for a little longer, but he ended
up watching until the concert ended.âDonât worry, Sophie. I'll take him to the hospital
tomorrow.â Most doctors are done with their shifts by now. Even if we are popular, we can't possibly
drag the doctors out of their beds, right?â"How can you leave this matter until the next day? Don't
you know how important his hand is?â Sophie uttered, her volume was getting louder without her
noticing it. Who did this? I have to find out who the culprit is. I'll never let this matter go.Sunny
could not help but feel touched by how she reacted.He had been around Sophie for a year, so,
naturally, he knew that underneath her cold exterior was a caring soul.âIt's okay, Sophie. It doesn't
hurt that much. If I go tomorrow, I'll be able to see a specialist instead.â"We're going right now! The
rest of you should go back. I'll take Sunny there.â"Sophie!â Sunny cried out, tears welled up in his
eyes as he was really touched."That's enough. Stop looking at me in that way. Let's go.â Sunny had
already removed his makeup, and once he put on a mask, she was sure that they would not attract
unnecessary attention even if they were to go to the hospital.âI'll come with you.â No matter what,
Sophie was still a girl, and it was unsafe for her to be out this late at night. The others were certain
that she would not be able to find a specialist at the hospital to give Sunny a checkup. However,
Sunny could only give in at her insistence. It's fine. My friend is waiting for me outside. I'll go with
him. Sunny, come on!"âMark, I'll be leaving now then. Head back and rest earlier. All of you must be
tired from the performance. Donât worry about me. My hand is really fine."With that said, Sunny
went out with Sophie through the back door.Mark was still worried, and he tried to go after them,
but his teammates stopped him."Forget it, Mark. You know how Sophie is. No one can change her
mind about the decisions she has made. It's good that she didnât let you go. You're the
representative of The Wheelers, and many people know you. If fans recognize you at the hospital,
it'll be a big problem.âMark knew that the members were right, but he just could not be at
ease.After Tristan received Sophie's call, he drove out. As Sophie and Sunny came out through the
VIP lane, not many fans were there to see them.Tristan did not say anything when he saw her exiting
with a young man."This is SunnyâThe Wheelersâ drummer. His hand is injured, so we're taking him
to the hospital,â Sophie explained to Tristan before calling Arius.Just as the call went through, Ariusâ
voice traveled out of the speakers.âSophie, you're calling me so late at night. Are you feeling lonely?
Do you want me to go and warm your bed?â teased Arius."Arius, do you still want to go home?â
came Tristan's icy voice.Immediately, Arius hugged himself.This man is so boring! It's not as if I've
said anything!âMr. Tristan, what are you doing? I dare you to lay a finger on me. Let's see if Sophie's
going to let you off. Sophie and I are really close. She'll definitely decimate anyone who dares to
hurt me!"Thereâs no way you can threaten me!âIs that so? Then you should ask her who's the more
important person to herâyou, or me.â Tristan was very upset. Does everyone I come across have to
make a comparison with me? They're really getting on my nerves.âSophie, look, heâs bullying me
again! Say, who's more important to youâme or him?â At that moment, Arius looked as if he was
going to end both Sophie and his own life if she were to tell him that he was not important to
her."That's enough. Can you stop with the nonsense? Where are you right now? Are you at the
hospital?â Sophie was done entertaining the two childish men.âWhat's wrong? Are you hurt, or is it
that arrogant Mr. Tristan? I really hope heâs the one who's hurt.â He's always trying to steal her away
from me! I hope he's injured in a way that he can't be treated!
