Anything For Her

Chapter 134 Going To A Hotel With Another Man

Arius and Sophie went to the most popular barbecue restaurant in Jipsdale.

Arius had missed everything about Jipsdale since he had been away for quite a long period of time.

The barbecue shop was extremely famous. It was frequently visited by the rich and famous.

If it was not for a contact of Arius, he would not be able to get a private room to dine in.

While he was reading the menu, Sophie was playing games on her phone nonchalantly.

“We haven’t seen each other for ages. Is that the right attitude for welcoming me home? By ignoring

me completely?” he grumbled. Even when we were far apart, I have always been missing her in Anglandur. Look at her! I bet she has totally forgotten about my existence. How heartless!

“What do you mean? Am I not having a meal with you the moment I know that you’re back? Do you

know how many people in Jipsdale could only dream about having this honor?” Sophie disagreed.

Instinctively, Arius twitched the corner of his lip and snapped, “Don’t you think that I don’t know the only

reason you’re being nice to me is because Old Mr. Tanner is unwell.” He came back from abroad

several times and went all the way to Horington to see her, but she gave him the cold shoulder.

“Is everything okay with you, Sophie?” No matter what happened between them, he was most worried

about her health.

“Absolutely! I couldn’t be any better. Can’t you tell? The world still needs to tolerate a troublemaker like

me for at least a thousand years,” she replied casually.

“Sophie, I disliked the way you described yourself. How could you say that you’re a troublemaker?

You’re the rare gem of Chanaea, do you know that? There’s hardly a handful of people like you in this

world!”

A few foreign universities had been inquiring about her and contacted her multiple times, but Sophie

remained unfazed.

Moments later, the waiter served the dishes. Sophie had only a few mouthfuls before focusing on her

phone again. Ysabelle sent her a couple of voice messages, and she switched them all to texts for

convenience’s sake.

“I see that you don’t have a good appetite. Why don’t you come over to the hospital tomorrow and get

yourself a thorough check-up?” Arius stared at her with concern.

During those years she spent in Horington, she had acquired many skills and attained a lot of things. At

the same time, her health was also compromised.

“I’m fine, so I don’t need a check-up. I know my condition very well.” The priority now is Grandpa. Everything else doesn’t really matter.

Arius looked at her disapprovingly.

“Why don’t you listen to me, Sophie? I know you’re in the pink of health, but your appetite is bad. Isn’t

this a recurring issue?” He did not come back often. This time, he was not planning on giving up

persuading her.

Sophie furrowed her brows and repeated, “I said I’m fine.”

I can single-handedly defeat more than ten mercenaries at any one time. What problem can my body have?

“Listen to me, won’t you? Or else, don’t blame me for taking you home forcefully.” Arius regretted his

decision to bring her to the training camp back then.

“Dream on! Do you think that I will follow you home so easily? No one can make me do anything I

refuse to do,” she declared confidently.

Well, well, well… What should I do with you, Sophie?

“I know there’s no way I can change your mind. Anyhow, that’s your body. You ought to love yourself

more.” I can’t imagine what would happen to her next if she continues to live like this.

“All right, I got it. I know that you care. Come on, dig in! Didn’t you say that you’ve missed this barbecue

terribly?”

Arius knew that she would turn a deaf ear to him. As such, he could only let her be.

Is there no one else on earth who could control this young lady?

He truly hoped that there was someone else whom she feared, even if it involved another man.

After the meal, Sophie walked Arius back to Cloud Nine Hotel where she ran into Winter.

Seeing that Sophie was entering the hotel with another man, Winter smiled scornfully.

She is going into the hotel with a man when the sun is still out? What a slut!

The two ladies’ met each other’s eyes. Sophie chuckled when she saw the expression on Winter’s

face.

Why does this woman keep showing up everywhere?

Arius saw Winter too. Why does she keep staring at Sophie like that?

“Who’s that?” Arius was dying to find out about the woman’s identity because she kept scrutinizing

them.

“A nobody.” Sophie could not be bothered.

“Really? From the way she looks at you, I don’t think she’s someone irrelevant. Perhaps… your love

enemy?”

Darn it, Arius! ”Love enemy? Are you kidding me? She doesn’t stand a chance to be one.” Although

Winter kept showing up in front of her, Sophie had never taken her seriously.

“Let’s go. Aren’t you tired after a long plane ride? Why are you so interested in that lady? Are you

infatuated with her? Shall I introduce her to you then?” Sophie seldom showed her cheeky and chatty

side, unless she was with a close friend.

“What makes you think that she’s up to my standards?” Arius withdrew his gaze from Winter.

When the latter saw Sophie walking into the elevator with a man, she smiled delightfully.

Why would Mr. Tristan fall for such a promiscuous girl? This is going to be interesting.

“Who’s that, Ms. Quigley?” the girl standing next to Winter asked, upon noticing her eyes were fixated

on Sophie. “She’s not as pretty as you.”

Hearing that, Winter’s smile grew wider.

“Who is she to be my match?” The arrogant Winter always thought that she was a class above the rest,

especially when it concerned Sophie.

“Exactly! Is there anyone in Jipsdale who can be mentioned on equal terms with you? Only Mr. Tristan

is worthy of you.”

Then, Winter quickly gave Charles a call.

“Charles, where are you guys now? I need to see you urgently.” Winter could not wait for another

second to reveal the juicy news to Tristan.

Coincidentally, Charles was with Tristan when his sister called.

There were three of them accompanying Tristan that night. However, none of them knew why the latter

remained silent throughout.

“If it’s not something important, let’s talk about it tomorrow.” With Mr. Tristan being in a terrible mood, the night isn’t going to end well if someone accidentally steps on his toe. What if Winter raised a ruckus and offended him unknowingly? I’d definitely not know how to pick up the mess, especially when she likes him so much.

“Charles, I swear it’s something super important!” Winter insisted.

“Fine. We’re at Nocturnal. You can come over now.”

Charles’ plan was to meet Winter outside of the bar, to be safe.

Unfortunately, things turned out the opposite of what he had anticipated. When Winter arrived at

Nocturnal, she headed directly to the private room.

Charles nearly jumped out of his skin when he saw her sister.

“You’re here for me, right? Let’s talk outside.” He grabbed her hand and started dragging her outside

with trepidation.

“What’s the matter with you, Charles?” Winter refused to leave the room. She strode forward and took

a seat on the couch. Why is Mr. Tristan acting weird? Has he already found out about it?
