Chapter 221
It Is Good To Be My Girlfriend “All right. I’ll meet you at Lombard Group later in the afternoon. Remember to come down and get me, okay?” Ysabelle had not forgotten how she was not allowed to go up to the office. Her status as Tristan’s niece was not as good as being Tristan’s girlfriend. “Okay. I’m going to hang up if there’s nothing else. Your uncle is waiting for me to have lunch.” Ysabelle was speechless. Okay, then. I don’t feel too bad if she’s eating with Uncle Tristan. “Was that Ysabelle?” “Yep.

She says she’s coming over in the afternoon to keep me company. Since we haven’t met for a couple of days, I said yes. You don’t mind it, do you?” “I don’t…” “Really?” Sophia asked quizzically. Why does he look like he’s bothered about it? Tristan placed his arm around her shoulders and brought her over to get their food. After that, they found a table by the window and sat down. “I really don’t mind it. It must be boring being around me, right? Am I a boring person?” Sophie had totally forgotten all about the conversation from earlier. What’s Mr. Tristan talking about? Is he a boring person? Does he have some wrong understanding of himself? “Nope. You’re not a boring person at all. In fact, you’re very interesting!” she answered. How can an outstanding man like Tristan have such a major misunderstanding about himself? “That’s great. I was worried you’d be bored being around me,” Tristan said.

The food served in Lombard Group’s cafeteria was the best, unlike most companies. In those companies, employees would order takeaway or head out during lunchtime. To solve the employees’ meal problem, Lombard Group had specially hired a few five-star chefs who were well adept at cooking all kinds of cuisines. Thus, Sophie was quite satisfied with the dishes she was served. They looked good and smelled amazing. “It must be nice working for you,” Sophie said as she took a bite of her food. As expected, it was on par with the food sold in restaurants out there. “It’s always good to be my girlfriend,” Tristan said with a smile. His words left Sophie stumped. Fine. It must be nice to be

associated with Mr. Tristan, no matter what the relationship is. Before Tristan and Sophie finished their food, Felix, who heard the news about Tristan eating at the cafeteria, immediately hurried over.

The moment Felix spotted Sophie, he could not help but say, “Mr. Tristan, this isn’t nice of you. It’s Ms. Tanner’s first visit to our company, and you’re letting her eat in our cafeteria?” “What’s the problem? Is the food in our cafeteria inedible?” Tristan did not welcome Felix, for the latter was intruding on his alone time with Sophie. Why on earth did he come here for? “I’m a man. What I eat doesn’t matter.” Of course, Felix was relatively satisfied with the food served in Lombard Group’s cafeteria. In fact, he had gotten himself some food too. “Sophie, it must be nice having your holidays now, right?” he asked. She can go anywhere and do whatever she wants the entire day. Gosh, I miss those days. It’s so sad that I can’t return to those days anymore. “I suppose so.” Though it was the holidays, she had been keeping herself busy. “It’s nicer if someone gets lost. Why don’t you just get lost?” Tristan snapped coldly. Felix’s feelings were rather hurt by those words. “Mr. Tristan, you hurt my feelings. You never treated me like this in the past. Didn’t you always like me?

Things are really different now that you have Sophie.” Felix pretended to wipe his tears with his handkerchief. Sophie was rendered speechless by his act. “Get lost! You’re not important to me, so you can get lost now,” Tristan said impolitely. “No. I haven’t met Sophie for many days. You might not miss me, but I bet Sophie does. Don’t you, Sophie?” Felix asked. Surely girls won’t be that savage? “Sorry to disappoint you, but I don’t,” replied Sophie. She did not bother sparing his dignity. Felix glared at the duo. “Can you two not be so heartless?” he reprimanded. This is too much. I came over to eat with them because I find it boring to eat alone. Do they really have to dislike me so much? Alas, Sophie ignored him and lowered her head to continue eating. At the same time, Tristan realized she was already too full to eat. However, she was still forcing herself to finish the food because she did not want to waste it. “You don’t have to force yourself if you can’t eat anymore.”

Though he hoped Sophie could eat more, she was already at the limit of her appetite. She would feel unwell if he forced her to finish her food. “Okay.” Sophie did not force herself to eat either. There was
