Chapter 185
Changing only for her (Sophie and Tristan)
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.
âYsabelle, what do you think of Charles?â
Ysabelle blinked.
âCharles? Isnât 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.
âThank 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.
âThatâs insane. Are fans that scary nowadays?â
âHow is that insane? Every single member in The Wheelers is amazing. Theyâre worth going crazy for!â
Ysabelle instantly defended.
âOkay, you guys head back first. Iâll wait here for Sophie.â
Tristan did not have the patience to keep hearing them talk nonsense.
âLetâs go. It looks like weâre 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.
âItâs late, and the concert was four and a half hours long. Do you think that Sophie still has the energy
to talk to you?â
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, youâre right. Iâll go back first then. Uncle Tristan, you have to take good care of Sophie.â
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.
Ysabelleâs face turned bright red at his gesture.
âFelix, I can walk by myself.â
However, Felix still did not let go of her.
âThere are too many people here, and the fans are truly fanatics. Iâll let go of you once we get outside.â
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.
âWhy arenât you at the hospital?â
Didnât 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?
âItâs 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. Iâll take him to the hospital tomorrow.â Most doctors are done with their shifts by
now. Even if we are popular, we canât possibly drag the doctors out of their beds, right?
âHow can you leave this matter until the next day? Donât 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. Iâll 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.
âItâs okay, Sophie. It doesnât hurt that much. If I go tomorrow, Iâll be able to see a specialist instead.â
âWeâre going right now! The rest of you should go back. Iâll take Sunny there.â
âSophie!â Sunny cried out, tears welled up in his eyes as he was really touched.
âThatâs enough. Stop looking at me in that way. Letâs 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.
âIâll 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.
âItâs fine. My friend is waiting for me outside. Iâll go with him. Sunny, come on!â
âMark, Iâll 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.â
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.
âForget it, Mark. You know how Sophie is. No one can change her mind about the decisions she has
made. Itâs good that she didnât let you go. Youâre the representative of The Wheelers, and many people
know you. If fans recognize you at the hospital, itâll be a big problem.â
Mark knew that the members were right, but he just could not be at ease.
After Tristan received Sophieâs 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.
âThis is SunnyâThe Wheelersâ drummer. His hand is injured, so weâre 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, youâre calling me so late at night. Are you feeling lonely? Do you want me to go and warm
your bed?â teased Arius.
âArius, do you still want to go home?â came Tristanâs icy voice.
Immediately, Arius hugged himself.
This man is so boring! Itâs not as if Iâve said anything!
âMr. Tristan, what are you doing? I dare you to lay a finger on me. Letâs see if Sophieâs going to let you
off. Sophie and I are really close. Sheâll definitely decimate anyone who dares to hurt me!â
Thereâs no way you can threaten me!
âIs that so? Then you should ask her whoâs 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? Theyâre really getting
on my nerves.
âSophie, look, heâs bullying me again! Say, whoâs 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.
âThatâs 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.
âWhatâs wrong? Are you hurt, or is it that arrogant Mr. Tristan? I really hope heâs the one whoâs hurt.â
Heâs always trying to steal her away from me! I hope heâs injured in a way that he canât be treated!
