Chapter 365


    Chapter 365


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


    around his arm.


    Alex, seated by Nichs'' right side, was already used to his boss'' vagaries.


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


    Sophie, Nichs hated Tristan to the bone.


    Tristan ising to Anndur? At that moment, the indifferent Nichs finally spoke. “Alex, if Tristan


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


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


    wanted to make my move in Chanaeast 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 Nichs 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.”


    Nichs wanted Tristan to pay for stealing Sophie from him.


    “Yes, Boss.”


    Even though Tristan was strong, Nichs was no pushover either. Content is property of N?velDrama.Org.


    It was hard to tell which of the two woulde out on top, especially in Anndur. Nichs looked


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


    It had been a while since Nichsst saw Sophie, so he missed her. “Do you think Sophie wille


    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''sing to Anndur, I''m afraid things will get difficult for


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


    “Nonsense! Not even he is allowed to hurt Sophie!” insisted Nichs, 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 eximed, “What? You''re going to Anndur tomorrow?”


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


    about to forgive Tristan after what happened to him in Chanaeast 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 Anndur alone.


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


    Anndur, Nichs'' 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 d 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 rx for two days.


    Besides that, he was d 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 Anndur.” 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 Anndur. Besides, nobody would darey a finger on him because we have our


    forces there too.


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


    talking about Anndur.


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


    anything.”


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


    ownne.


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


    “I just hope you won''t be 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 hadplete confidence in himself.
