Chapter 665
Changing Only For Her
Hearing that, Felix was the first to state his disagreement. âThat wonât do. If you girls insist on heading out to have fun, youâll have to bring me along!â he insisted.
As Ysabelleâs boyfriend, Felix was so smitten with her that being apart from her was simply unbearable.
Thus, he wanted to be by her side at all times.
Ysabelle jumped at the idea and responded, âWhy not? I could use a little bit of time away, too. So when are you planning on going? Iâd love to join you, Cecelia!â It sounded like a great idea to her.
No matter what issues or difficulties they encountered, they were confident that a vacation would be the answer to their problems.
âMr. Tristan, can you stand the idea of being apart from Sophie? Should we tag along? We can do all the hard labor,â Felix suggested. He knew that Tristan wouldnât want to be separated from Sophie.
âItâs time for a much-needed vacation. Youâve been tired recently, so it would be nice to take a break,â
Tristan replied. He was always busy at work, so he wanted her to be able to get away from it all and enjoy a holiday abroad.
âMr. Northley, you should learn from Mr. Tristan. Your girlfriend wonât run away, so why would you need to stick to her at all times?â Cecelia complained.
I canât believe Sean didnât fall for my charms. Heâs weird. Forget it, then. Since he doesnât like me, Iâll just give up. Heâs not worth my time, anyway.
Cecelia was not in a rush to find her ultimate companion. After all, there were countless potential suitors in the world. She believed that one day she would eventually find âThe Oneâ and that the wait would be worth it.
âSays who? What if she escapes? Whoâll take responsibility if that were to happen?â Felix retorted like the coward he was.
Hearing that, Ysabelle gave his thigh a forceful pinch.
âFelix, donât you trust me? What was that? Donât worry. Iâll let you know in advance if I want to break up with you,â she snapped.
Felix was speechless.
Why would she tell me in advance? What use is that? I donât want to break up with her!
âYsabelle, how can you disregard me after hurting me? Thatâs too much! I canât comprehend why youâd want to break up with me when I love you so deeply.â
Seeing their interaction, Sophie felt her frustration fading away.
Indeed, her friends were the ones who provided her with the most love and support.
âYou should travel with your friends,â Arius told her. âA little bit of rest can go a long way. You donât want to exhaust yourself, do you?â
âMm. I know,â Sophie agreed.
Tristan remained steadfastly beside Sophie that night, assuring that she had no opportunity to ruminate and become overwhelmed by her thoughts.
Sophie flung her arms around his neck and pressed a kiss to his sexy lips.
âArenât you busy? I donât need you to stay with me. Iâm fine!â she assured him.
âIâm not busy. Have you decided where you want to travel?â Tristan asked. He was reluctant to be apart from her, but he knew it would be beneficial for her to spend some time with people who could make her feel better.
Cecelia and Ysabelle were pretty famous locally, so they were unable to go on vacation within the country and instead had to go abroad for their break.
âDonât worry, Iâll help you get a leave of absence from the University of Medicine, so donât worry and have fun. Iâve arranged for someone to keep watch on your mother, so sheâll be in good hands,â he added.
âMm!â
The following morning, Tristan received a call from the psychiatric nursing home telling him that Willow had escaped.
Seeing his reaction, Sophie asked, âWhatâs wrong? Did something happen?â
Tristan replied, âItâs nothing. Let me give you a ride to the airport!â
After making up their minds to take a vacation, the girls decided to depart that day.
âIf youâre busy, you donât have to drop me off at the airport. Felix is heading there later too, so I can take his car,â Sophie said.
Tristan shook his head. âItâs fine. Iâll take you to the airport myself. Nothing is more important to me than you.â
Sophie couldnât stop him.
After he dropped her off at the airport, she met with Cecelia, Ysabelle, Butterfly, and Sarah.
When Sarah discovered that they were planning a fun-filled getaway, she quickly decided to jump on board and join them. Butterfly heard about their vacation from Arius, so she also decided to tag along.
At first, Butterfly wasnât close to the other girls, but her outgoing nature allowed her to quickly become more comfortable and acquainted with them.
When Tristan and Sophie showed up, the four girls stood up and welcomed Sophie warmly.
Naturally, Felix was still worried.
âBe careful, okay? You girls are so gorgeous, so Iâm worried that scoundrels will take advantage of you,â he said worriedly.
I wish I can join them.
He suggested, âWhy donât I tag along? That way, I can protect you girls.â
âThatâs enough, Felix. There are five of us! Besides, no one will dare to bully us with Sophie around!â
Felix knew that Sophie was more experienced in combat than he was, so he gave up trying to convince them to change their mind.
Ysabelle said eagerly, âItâs almost time, so you should leave now. Weâre going to board the plane soon.â
Reluctance flashed across Felixâs eyes as he dragged Ysabelle aside.
âWhatâs wrong? Weâre leaving soon. What are you doing?â Ysabelle rolled her eyes at him.
âDo you resent me? Iâm just worried about you. If anything happens, let me know immediately.
Remember to video call me every day, too!â he reminded her urgently.
Once Ysabelleâs wild side took over, he would be chucked at the back of her mind. It was inevitable that she would get carried away when she was having a good time.
That could explain why Felix was worried about her.
Seeing that, Ysabelle felt her heart soften.
Does he feel insecure in this relationship?
âFelix, there is no need for you to worry. I want you to know that I love you, and I am not planning on ending our relationship. Iâll remember to video call you every day!â she promised.
Felix felt aggrieved as they werenât planning on letting him tag along on their trip.
He cupped her cheeks and gave her a firm kiss. âRemember your promise,â he urged.
Ysabelle gave him a reassuring nod.
Sophie and Tristan stood some distance away from the couple. Tristan knew she was capable of protecting herself and the other girls.
âIt is important to take care of yourself when you travel, so make sure you do not overexert yourself.
Make sure you eat regularly and eat enough,â he reminded.
âGot it.â
Knowing he would worry about her, she consented to each and every one of his requests.
âRemember to call me.â
âOkay.â
Tristan asked her hesitantly, âDonât you have anything to say to me?â He couldnât help but wonder if she had nothing to say after all this time.
Sophie nodded and said, âDonât tire yourself out. Remember to miss me, too.â
There was no need to voice the rest of her thoughts.
Tristan placed his arm around her waist.
âMm. Have fun! Iâll be waiting for you back home.â
