Anything For Her

Chapter 558

However, Tristan quickly pulled her into his arms, and the only thing between them was the thin cloth of her pajamas and his clothes. "Tristan, what are you doing?" questioned Sophie, whose body was plastered to the

man.

Sophie would never purposely excite Tristan, who had promised he would not lay a finger on her until they got married, because she knew he would suffer for it.

After all, Tristan was a man of his word.

Seeing how aroused Tristan was, Sophie figured he would need another cold shower. I wonder if it's unhealthy for him to always take cold showers like that.

"I'm fine; just let me hold you for a while!" Hugging Sophie was all Tristan wanted, nothing more.

"Okay." Sophie then let Tristan hold her as if she was a gentle rabbit.

However, no matter how much self-control Tristan had, he was still just an ordinary man who could not help but be physically stimulated when embracing the woman he loved.

It was almost impossible for Tristan's excitement to go unnoticed since Sophie's body was pressed against his.

Since Sophie was well-versed in medicine, she knew just how much discomfort Tristan was in.

"Do you need my help?" Even though Sophie was shy to ask the question, she did not want Tristan to suffer because she loved him very much.

"Are you sure?" Tristan never wanted Sophie to do anything like that for him since she was nothing short of an angel to him.

However, he instantly lost the ability to say no after seeing Sophie nod in response.

The fact that he needed her hand to relieve himself did not help with the situation.

Fortunately, the process was so incredible that their relationship ascended to another level even though they did not go all the way.

Sophie went to the bathroom to wash her hands afterward, and when she came out, she saw Tristan lying motionless on the bed.

"Are you okay?" inquired Sophie, knitting her eyebrows and wondering what had happened to the man.

After Tristan beckoned to her, Sophie walked over and joined him on the bed.

"Are you really okay?" asked Sophie again.

"I'm fine!"

"Good," responded Sophie in a low voice, for she was somewhat embarrassed and unsure how to talk to Tristan after what she had done for him.

"Thank you for everything, Sophie." Tristan held the woman's hand.

"Thank you for everything, Sophie." Tristan held the woman's hand.

In response, Sophie buried her head in Tristan's chest and said nothing.

The news of the Lombard family handing the long-lost national treasure over to the country caused a great stir, so much so that national leaders visited the Lombards personally to thank William for his contribution.

The elderly man was even bestowed a special achievement award, which made him so happy that he could not stop smiling no matter who he met.

Because of that, William also stopped picking on Sophie.

Jennifer, on the other hand, was not only displeased to hear the entire Jipsdale singing Sophie's praises but also anxious to see how William's attitude toward the woman had changed. If Old Mr. Lombard doesn't side with me, it'll be even more difficult for me to get Tristan.

For the past few days, the executives of Whitley Group felt as though they were walking on eggshells because they were all afraid of making any mistakes that would invoke Jennifer's wrath.

One of them offended the woman in the morning meeting and was scolded so harshly that he almost broke down.

Afterward, the executives could not help gathering for a discussion.

"What happened to Ms. Whitley in these past two days? She can't be going through menopause early, can she? What's up with her temper?"

"I know, right? Everything seems to annoy her. She definitely held nothing back when she was scolding."

"I bet it's because she hasn't been with a man for a while now. Everybody knows that Mr. Tristan doesn't reciprocate her feelings for him."

Jennifer's face turned as grim as death when she walked out of the conference room and heard what the others had to say about her.

Just when she was about to teach the executives a lesson for talking behind her back, Timothy Whitley quickly stopped her.

"You're getting out of line. How do you expect to run a company when you can't even separate your personal life from your professional one?" questioned Timothy rhetorically with a frown. Although Jennifer had always been his pride and joy, he was disappointed to see how emotional his daughter was then. Is it worth throwing everything away for just a man?

"Dad, I..." Seeing the disappointment in Timothy's eyes, Jennifer was suddenly at a loss for words.

"There are a lot of things that I've never told you because I thought you, as a Whitley, would be sensible enough to refrain from doing anything that would embarrass our family." Timothy had always thought Jennifer was exceptional, but she had let him down that day.

"I'm sorry that I've disappointed you, Dad," apologized Jennifer, who had never felt more terrible because she really wanted to do everything right.

"Do you understand now? You are the pride of our family, so even Tristan isn't worth losing yourself over," reminded Timothy as he patted Jennifer's shoulder. Unrequited love is nothing to be proud of.

"Okay."

On the other hand, Sophie had found her past few days to be quite trouble-free.

Not only was she done with her dissertation, but TS Entertainment was also back on track after The Wheelers regained popularity.

Even though the band was invited to participate in various events, Sophie had Jonathan turn down the unnecessary ones. The Wheelers is a band that focuses on music, so that's what they'll do. They shouldn't have to worry about anything else.

As for Ysabelle, she was gaining popularity as well because of the sheer number of fans who loved her new album. Although she was not as well-known as The Wheelers, she had a promising future.

Ysabelle's main goal was to help Sophie crush Whitley Group because she intended to keep her promise to the woman.

That was also why Sophie went to the Tanner Group office much more frequently lately.

Whenever Victor saw Sophie, the usually cold and proud man would greet her with a big smile.

Since Victor never greeted anyone else like that, everyone at the office joked about how he was always happy to see Sophie because he had feelings for her.

"Ms. Sophie, your plan was very successful, so everything has returned to normal. You can rest assured that the company will run as smoothly as a flowing river in my hands."

"Of course, I trust you." Sophie would never have entrusted the company to Victor if she did not believe in him. "Do you remember the task I assigned you last time?"
