Chapter 365

In Anglandur, Nicholas sat on a couch with authentic leather while a scary-looking snake wrapped itself

around his arm.

Alex, seated by Nicholas’ right side, was already used to his boss’ vagaries.

“Boss, Tristan will be in Anglandur tomorrow.” Since he learned of the relationship between Tristan and

Sophie, Nicholas hated Tristan to the bone.

Tristan is coming to Anglandur? At that moment, the indifferent Nicholas finally spoke. “Alex, if Tristan

no longer exists, Sophie will be less resistant to me, won’t she?”

The snake in Nicholas’ hand then flicked out its tongue, which he swiftly pinched before revealing, “I

wanted to make my move in Chanaea last time. Unfortunately, I was interrupted.”

Alex broke out in a cold sweat when he heard the man. That was Tristan’s territory. Who knows what

would’ve happened had Nicholas made his move back then?

“Make the necessary arrangements. I’m not greedy; I only want his hand now that he’s in our territory.”

Nicholas wanted Tristan to pay for stealing Sophie from him.

“Yes, Boss.”

Even though Tristan was strong, Nicholas was no pushover either.

It was hard to tell which of the two would come out on top, especially in Anglandur. Nicholas looked

forward to the next day and wondered if Sophie would come with Tristan.

It had been a while since Nicholas last saw Sophie, so he missed her. “Do you think Sophie will come

too? If she’s with him, you have to be careful not to hurt her. Do you understand?”

Unsure of what to say, Alex could not help but be convinced that women were nothing but trouble. Why

can’t Boss just focus on his business? Why must he put so much effort into pursuing a young woman?

To make things worse, she doesn’t even like him.

“Boss, if Old Mr. Sable knows that Sophie’s coming to Anglandur, I’m afraid things will get difficult for

us!” Alex worried that Nicholas and Javier would have a fallout.

“Nonsense! Not even he is allowed to hurt Sophie!” insisted Nicholas, which got Alex even more

concerned.

At that moment, Alex realized why Javier disliked Sophie so much. As expected, that young woman is

nothing but trouble.

Meanwhile, in Chanaea, Sophie exclaimed, “What? You’re going to Anglandur tomorrow?”

She had a bad feeling when she heard where Tristan was going. That’s Nicholas’ territory. He’s not

about to forgive Tristan after what happened to him in Chanaea last time.

“Yes. There are some matters at the branch office that requires my attention. Don’t worry! I’m only

going to be there for two days. Be good while I’m away, okay?”

“I’ve always been good!”

Sophie then wondered if it was safe for Tristan to go to Anglandur alone.

Even though she knew Tristan could hold his own against Nicholas, the fact that Tristan would be in

Anglandur, Nicholas’ territory, still worried her.

After all, the man would have the upper hand in his own territory.

“Who will you be going with?”

“Maybe Felix. Why? You don’t want me to go?” Tristan was somewhat glad to see the concerned look

on Sophie’s face.

“Yes. I don’t want you to go!” replied Sophie while looking into the man’s eyes. She did not want Tristan

to take the risk even if the odds of him being in danger were a thousand to one.

In response, Tristan wrapped his arms around her.

“I didn’t expect to see this side of you, but I like it very much! How I wish I could just take you with me!”

Tristan could not bear to leave Sophie behind.

“I’ll go with you then!” uttered Sophie in all seriousness.

“Really? Are you sure?” Tristan knew the university entrance exam was just a week away, and he did

not want to disturb Sophie’s studies.

“Do I look like I’m joking?” Since Sophie did not want Tristan to go alone, she decided to tag along. To

her, that was better than missing the man while he was gone.

“Okay, we’ll go together!” Tristan was sure Sophie did not need the exam to prove anything, so he

thought it would be a good idea for her to relax for two days.

Besides that, he was glad Sophie wanted to go with him. It’s nice to know that there are times when

she just doesn’t want to be separated from me.

Felix sighed helplessly when he heard that Tristan was bringing Sophie along. “I don’t think I’ll get used

to this. You’re just going away for two days, Mr. Tristan. What’s there to worry about?”

“Well, you don’t have to get used to it! Just remember to be careful when you reach Anglandur.” Sean

could not help feeling that something was off. Sophie isn’t one to be clingy; she should be focusing on

her studies since the university entrance exam is near. Besides, Tristan will only be away for two days.

“You don’t have to worry, Sean. It’s not as if you don’t know how capable Mr. Tristan is. I doubt there’s

anyone in this world who can hurt him easily. Heck, Sophie is probably the only one who can.” To Felix,

love was something capable of hurting people. However, seeing how close Tristan and Sophie were,

he did not think Sophie would harm his employer.

“Just do what I say and be careful, okay?” Sean had always been cautious. Even though he could not

tell exactly what was wrong then, he was convinced that something smelled fishy.

“Okay, I got it.” answered Felix helplessly.

He was always tasked to handle different situations with Tristan, so naturally, he knew how heavy his

responsibility was.

“Stop worrying, Sean. Mr. Tristan should be fine,” assured Felix. It’s not as though this is Mr. Tristan’s

first time going to Anglandur. Besides, nobody would dare lay a finger on him because we have our

forces there too.

“Nicholas is not to be underestimated,” reminded Sean, for it was only natural to think of Nicholas when

talking about Anglandur.

“He’s indeed powerful in Anglandur, but we’ve always minded our own business. I don’t think he’ll try

anything.”

Even though Tristan and Nicholas had had conflicts of interest over the years, the two remained in their

own lane.

“You don’t have to fret because I won’t let anything happen to Mr. Tristan,” promised Felix.

“I just hope you won’t become a burden to Mr. Tristan at critical moments.” The group did not expect

Felix to be of much help.

After being rendered speechless for a while, Felix questioned, “What is that supposed to mean? I’m not

that useless, am I? I mean, I think I’m pretty capable.”

It was true that Felix was the weakest among the four, but he always did his best whenever the

situation called for it.

“Of course not. In fact, you’re the most useful one,” replied Charles sarcastically, which made Felix

jump to his feet from the couch.

“Forget it. I’m done talking with you lot. All you do is make fun of me.” Felix did not appreciate getting

picked on like that.

“Just be careful, okay? Wouldn’t want you to get hurt.” The four had always been close, so they did not

wish to see any of them harmed.

Waving his hand, Felix responded indifferently, “Don’t lose sleep over it because nobody in this world

can hurt me.”

The man had complete confidence in himself.
