Pursuing Her Chapter 56

Chapter 56 Feeling Under The Weather

Sophie was running out of breath. Will I be the first person to die from kissing due to suffocation?

Will the media report my death tomorrow?Winter clenched her fists. D*mn it! How could this

happen when I thought everything was within my control?“You see that, Winter? No matter how

hard you push, some things just won't go your way, so please stop testing Mr. Tristan’s patience.”"l

want to go home now, Charles. I'm feeling a little under the weather.” Winter could not take it

anymore. She stood up and left without even bidding Ysabelle farewell.Ysabelle was just as

stunned. Oh, my God. Uncle Tristan is taking advantage of Soph now. What should I do?If the

person were someone else, Ysabelle would have walked up and fought him to the death. B-but it's

Uncle Tristan!She did not have the courage to go against Tristan.She could only pinch Felix's arm

with all her might to vent her frustration.Felix exclaimed in pain, “Hey! What's wrong with you? Why

did you pinch me?“Felix had no idea what he did to deserve that. I didn't even do anything! And

that's what Mr. Tristan does best anyway. He has his way with women, and I'll never be half as good

as him.“It's all your fault. If you didn't insist on celebrating my birthday early, Uncle Tristan wouldn't

have a chance to take advantage of Soph. Who else can I blame?” Ysabelle vented her anger on

Felix.Since she could not express her frustration in front of Tristan, she could only release her anger

on Felix."Belle, think of it this way. You like Soph very much, right? Wouldn't it be great if she

became your sister-in-law? You two will be able to stay together forever!” Felix was proud of the

idea.Meanwhile, Tristan finally released Sophie when she thought she was about to die from

suffocation.She wanted to get up, but the lack of oxygen in her brain due to the prolonged kiss

caused her to stagger and fall back into a sitting position.However, this time, she fell on a particular

part of a man's anatomy.Sophie, who had always been a calm person, could not remain so when she

realized what she was sitting on. She snapped her head up and met Tristan’'s burning gaze. “I'm

sorry. I didn't do it on purpose.”It's all right.” Tristan tried to tame the raging monster in his lower

torso.But no matter how hard he tried, he could not suppress the desire in his voice His reaction

made Sophie even more embarrassed. However, the more embarrassed she was, the calmer she

would be. It's just a kiss, isn't it? It shouldnt bother me. It's a game anyway, and we all agreed not to

get mad no matter what the outcome was.Yet somehow, her heart was pounding furiously. It was as

if her heart was about to leap out of her chest.Sophie began to wonder why she allowed Tristan to

get to her. I've never felt like this before!”It's getting late. I should go home now. How about you

guys?” said Sean, who was a man who led a disciplined lifestyle.”Well then. Let's call it a day. Felix,

could you send Ysabelle home for me?"They could not drive because they had been drinking all

night, but their drivers had arrived to send them home.”Sure, don't worry. I'll send her home safely,”

Felix replied. I want to spend more time with her too.”Let's go. I'll send you home,” Tristan said to

Sophie in a gentle voice.Sophie still felt a little dizzy when they got into the car.She could not

believe that was how she had lost her first kiss.“"What's wrong? Do you think I took advantage of

you? Why don't you kiss me back, and we'll call it quits?" Tristan’s suggestion rendered the young

woman speechless.”No, thank you. I'm all right.” Sophie gritted her teeth. There's nothing I can do. I

can only suck it up and move on.Even when she woke up the next day, she could not resist touching

her lips after recalling last night's incident. Oh, come on, Sophie! It's just a kiss! Grow up!When

Sophie was about to go out for breakfast after freshening up, the doorbell rang.She opened the

door and saw Tristan standing outside with breakfast in his hands.”You could have opened the door

yourself, couldn't you?” Sophie did not understand why he had to ring the doorbell since he was the

house owner.”I told you this is your private space now, and I can't simply trespass on your premises

unless there's an emergency.” Tristan wanted to respect her privacy.”Let's have breakfast. We'll get

you an evening gown after this.” She has to wear an evening gown for Ysabelle's birthday party

tonight."Don’t get me wrong. I realized you didn't have an evening gown in your wardrobe the

other day, so I decided to take you out and get you one.”"You don't have to explain further. I'll do as

you say.”Sophie was not someone who would put on a hypocritical front. I'll get an evening gown if

the party requires me to wear it.Sophie was still in her sleepwear as she had just woken up.Her

sleepwear was a mauve pink short dress that exposed her slender and fair legs. She looked

exceptionally seductive in that attire.The two of them had breakfast together. Today's breakfast

suited Sophie's tastes, so she ate quite a lot. After that, Sophie went to change while Tristan waited

for her in the living room.Sophie wore a simple long-sleeve white t-shirt with a pair of jeans and a

cap. “Come on. Let's go!"Tristan could not help but question himself after seeing Sophie’s youthful

look. Am I too old for her?While they were on the way to the store, Tristan asked, “Sophie, does age

matter to you in a relationship?“Upon hearing that question, Sophie, who was enjoying the pleasant

weather and the view of passersby on the road while resting her right arm on the windowsill, turned

around to look at the man.Tristan cleared his throat to hide his awkwardness when he realized

Sophie was staring at him.“It's just a random question I had in mind,” Tristan said. While some

young girls like boys their age, some prefer older men. I wonder what's her preference."Me? I like

young men—good-looking ones,” Sophia answered and giggled.Tristan blanched at her words.He

then brought her to a store that specialized in custom-made evening gowns.Sophie wondered why

he brought her here as she knew the evening gowns were all custom-made. The designers would

have to take the customer's measurements and design a dress according to the customer's

demeanor. Tonight is the party, and we don't have time to make a new one!Meanwhile, the designer

from the store came out to greet Tristan."Bring me Ms. Tanner's evening gown."“The gown is ready,

Mr. Tristan." The designer instructed his subordinate to bring out the evening wear.”You made a

gown for me? But how? I don't think I've come here before!” Sophie wondered.The designer

responded with a grin. “Mr. Tristan gave me your photo a week ago and asked me to make an

evening gown for you.” “You looked amazing in the photo, but you look even more fabulous in

person! You're what our brand is about. Would you like to become our model?”
