Chapter 812


    Chapter 812 She Is Busy


    “Why are you here?” Nichs snapped.


    This was between him and Tristan, and he had an opportunity to kill Tristan today.


    It would be no fun if Richard suddenly showed up and spoiled his fun.


    “Boss, we were worried about you and decided toe here. Do you want us to take action now?”


    Richard asked carefully. This could be the ideal chance to get rid of Tristan.


    Nichs rolled his eyes. “No need. Find someone to give him a ride back to his hotel. We should leave


    now!”


    It was only right for him to respect his opponent.


    Spinning on his heel, he gave Tristan a serious look and said in a solemn tone, “I''m showing mercy


    today, Tristan. The next time we meet, we will still be rivals, and I won''t go easy on you.”


    Sophie was his first crush, and no one could make him give up on her.


    “It doesn''t matter whether or not you give up. Sophie doesn''t care about you at all. She loves me,”


    Tristan announced smugly.


    Nichs said nothing.


    The scathing arrogance of Tristan''s words stung him deeply, and his anger began to re. He felt


    helpless as he realized he was unable to do anything in the face of such an affront.


    “Take him away. I don''t want to see him now. He''s annoying me,” Nichs snapped impatiently.


    I can''t meet Sophie in this state, so I''ll have to recuperate for a few days at home before attempting


    another visit.


    Back at the hotel, Tristan bumped into Sophie unexpectedly. He had not anticipated that she would


    return so soon, and he was embarrassed to be seen in such a wretched state.


    Never in Sophie''s wildest dreams did she expect to see Tristan badly wounded one day.


    Worried, she inquired, “Where did you go? How did you get hurt? Who did this to you?” She was


    perplexed, as Tristan was skilled at defending himself.


    Tristan felt incredibly ufortable, not wanting to expose this side of himself to her. “Why are you


    back all of a sudden? I had no idea that you wereing back today,” he said, his voice betraying his


    unease.


    “Are you saying that you can go wild since I''m noting back?” Sophie demanded. She felt terrible


    for him, as his injuries were clearly quite serious.


    She had only returned to collect something and was utterly shocked to find him badly hurt.


    Sophie made a call to the front desk to request a medical kit. She then urged, “Come, sit down.”


    Tristan felt a bit awkward as Sophie had seen him in this miserable situation.


    “I''m fine. You must be busy, so you should get back to work. I can handle it myself,” he told her. His


    injuries, though they appeared to be severe, were only superficial.


    Sophie replied sternly, “Tristan, you''d bettere over while I''m still being nice.”


    Does he think he''s still young? He''s already in his thirties but still acts impulsively and gets himself into


    trouble,


    Knowing she would fly into a fit of rage if he refused toply, Tristan let out a sigh and went over to


    sit down in front of her obediently, allowing her to dress his wounds.


    Sophie was gentle, so he didn''t feel any pain at all. When she had finished, she shifted him so that he


    could rest his head on her abdomen.


    “Did Nichs do this to you?”


    Tristan was speechless. Why did she say that out loud?


    He meekly replied, “He''s faring worse than me. Don''t worry. I didn''t suffer any losses.”


    Sophie chided, “Nichs is crazy. Why would you y along with him? You should''ve ignored him!”


    Even though Nichs might be faring worse than Tristan, she still felt her heart ache for Tristan.


    Tristan told her, “He challenged me. I would look like a coward if I refused to ept his challenge!”


    As Sophie remained silent, he attempted to console her. “I''m really fine. These are just superficial


    wounds, so don''t worry.” He then pulled her and sat her on hisp. “What about you? It must be chaotic


    back at the International Medical Association, right? No matter how busy you are, remember to get


    some rest, okay?”


    It was essential for her to take breaks when it was necessary. After all, she was unable to resolve the


    issue by herself.


    Sophie twirled around, positioning herself so that she was straddling him. She wrapped her arms


    around his neck and gave him a kiss.


    “I''ll take good care of myself, so please don''t worry. Remember to be careful since you''re alone. If


    Nichs shows up again, ignore him,” she reminded him.


    “Yes. Don''t worry!” Tristan agreed.


    He didn''t take Nichs to heart as he merely agreed to the challenge as he was in a good mood.


    Tristan hugged her, reluctant to let her go.


    “You need to go now, right?”


    “Mm. I only came back to retrieve something. Everyone is racing against time to stop more deaths from


    happening,” Sophie revealed.


    She couldn''t afford to be selfish right now.


    “Okay. I''ll give you a ride, then,” Tristan offered.


    Sophie shook her head. “No need for that. Your image will suffer if you head out looking like this.” She


    made a reserved reminder.


    “Do I look like I care about my image? It doesn''t matter. Let''s go. I''ll drive you there,” Tristan said firmly.


    Still, Sophie shook her head. “Stay here. Someone is waiting for me downstairs.”


    She pressed a kiss to his forehead, reluctant to part with him. “Goodbye. I''ll call you when I''m free.”


    “Mm.”


    No matter how reluctant they were to part, Sophie still had to leave.


    Sophie went downstairs and arrived at the lobby to see Caleb. She assumed he was there to meet her.


    “Sophie!” Caleb called out.


    Sophie was taken aback to see him here.


    After meeting her, Caleb said sternly, “I can''t believe it''s you. What are you doing here? You must be


    aware this country is in danger. If there isn''t anything crucial that brought you here, then you should go


    back home immediately.”


    Sophie was his sister and had never done anything wrong, so he didn''t want her to risk her life.


    Sophie told him hastily, “I can''t head back now. I need to hurry to the International Medical Association


    and can''t talk to you right now. I''ll contact you when I''m avable, and then we can talk.”


    Caleb was aware of the International Medical Association and the fact that Sophie majored in medicine.


    Despite this, he didn''t think that she would be of much assistance, considering her status as a


    freshman student.


    “I really need to go,” Sophie added quickly.


    Caleb watched as Sophie hurried away and only regained hisposure momentster.

    Anndur had been thrown into a state of disarray and pandemonium. Many people were desperate to


    return to the safety of Chanaea, but that wasn''t easy to aplish as of now.


    Caleb had a strong desire to return to Chanaea, but he found himself without the means to make the


    journey.


    Hence, he came in search of Sophie after learning that she was here, hoping she had a way of sending


    him back home.


    Right then, Charmaine''s call arrived. “Caleb, did you get a chance to speak to Sophie? Did she


    manage to make the necessary arrangements? If she has made the arrangements, you should return


    here as soon as you can,” she said anxiously.


    After learning about Anndur''s situation, she kept calling Caleb, hoping he''de back home soon.


    s, despite having exhausted every resource avable to them, they had been unable to find a


    solution to their problem. In that moment of despair, they remembered Sophie.


    Sophie might not be able to provide a solution, but they knew someone who could—Tristan.


    “I met her, but she was too busy. I didn''t have the chance to tell her about it,” Caleb said curtly
