    Chapter 1805


    “Marcus, it’s gettingte. You guys need to call it a night. You’re flying solo with Tristan the day after


    tomorrow, and you probably won’t sleep well. You have to rest up.”


    Marcus nced at Sophia. “Hmm, all packed?”


    Sophia nodded. “All set! I’ve put everything you and Tristan brought in your suitcases. I’ve arranged for


    dad’s driver to take you guys. Once you get to M State, our people will pick


    you up.”


    Marcus’s expression remained unchanged, and he slightly nodded.


    He knew that Sophia would never let him travel alone with Tristan. She would certainly have someone


    watch over him to restrict his freedom.

    “Tristan, let’s go! Time for bed!” Marcus gently tapped Tristan, who was still engrossed in his game of


    chess.


    Tristan was still trying to figure out how to turn the tables on his dad when Sophia interrupted him,


    leaving him quite disgruntled. He red at Sophia before following his dad back to their room.


    Of course, Sophia noticed Tristan’s re, but she didn’t care. Now wasn’t the time to worry about the


    kid’s mood.


    Her current concern was that the internal investigation here wouldn’t be resolved anytime soon, leaving


    her stuck in this predicament for who knew how long.


    After watching Marcus and Tristan return to their room, Sophia headed to her father’s room to inquire


    about the progress of the investigation.


    In their room, Tristan watched Sophia leave through the crack in his door before pouting and turning to


    his dad.


    “Dad, are we really going back to M State? Can wee back afterwards? If we can’t, does that mean


    I won’t see Ellinor again?”


    Marcus patted his son’s head, saying cryptically, “We’ll see her again.”


    After knocking on the door of her father’s room, Sophia walked in.


    Thaddeus was back and was eating dinner alone.


    Sophia was saddened to see her father eat alone. “Dad, you’re just now having dinner? If I’d known


    you were back, I would have called you when I finished cooking.”


    Thaddeus nced at his daughter. “Save your cooking for your beloved man and child.”


    Sophia sighed and sat down. “Dad, stop it! I wish you would be kinder to Marcus.”


    Thaddeus grumbled, not wanting to discuss that man. “Did you need something?” He asked.


    Sophia nodded and asked, “Dad, has there been any progress with thepany investigation? When


    can we expect the restrictions to be lifted?”


    “Hard to say.”


    Sophia was anxious. “What do you mean ‘hard to say’? We can’t be stuck here indefinitely, right?”


    “Your fretting won’t help. I want the investigation over as soon as possible too.”


    Sophia frowned. “I’m sending Marcus and Tristan back to M State the day after tomorrow, and I’ll stay


    here to deal with the investigation. Dad, I need you to arrange for someone to apany them to


    avoid anyplications.”


    Thaddeus scoffed. “Escort? Are they royalty? Do they need a royal guard for an escort?”


    Sophia knew her father didn’t like Marcus, but even though she was frustrated, she didn’t lose her


    temper. “Dad, stop saying things like that! I need a few of your guys. Surely you won’t deny me that?”


    Thaddeus cut into his steak as his brow began furrowing deeply. “Sophia, it seems you didn’t consider


    what I told youst time.”


    Sophia paused, realizing what her father was referring to. “Dad, don’t bring that up again! It was hard


    enough to keep Marcus by my side. I’m not letting him go!”


    Thaddeus sighed. “Fine! If there’s nothing else, go back to your room. Don’t ruin my appetite!”
