Changing rooms were available. However, they changed right there and then in order to save time.
Sophie nodded before taking Sunny’s clothes in with her.
Once she was done and came out, she found that the rest of them were gone.
Tristan, on the other hand, had snuck backstage quietly.
“What are you-”
Before Sophie could finish her question, Tristan pulled her into his arms.
“I don’t like the smell of other men on your body.”
He was aware that she was wearing another man’s clothes at that moment.
Sophie did not attempt to struggle. She allowed him to embrace her as he wished.
“Mr. Tristan, it’s about time I get on to the stage.”
Mark’s solo only lasted for around five minutes. Sophie had spent too much time backstage and could not afford to delay anymore.
“Ms. Tanner, I’m jealous.”
If that’s the case, shouldn’t she comfort me a little?Sophie felt helpless.
“Mr. Tristan…”
What kind of comfort does he need?There was no way she would abandon The Wheelers.
After all, they were there for her during her darkest days.
“Just one kiss will do.”
Sophie was speechless.
He isn’t jealous. He’s just trying to be cheeky.
Knowing that she was running out of time, she gave him a light peck on his lips and nothing more.
“Will this do?”
asked Sophie.
Tristan held on tightly to her waist, pulled her into his arms again, and gave her a completely different kind of kiss.
“Remember something. This is how a real kiss should be. Go on! I’ll let you off for now.”
Sophie was dumbfounded.
She suspected that he might have eaten up all of her lipstick in that one passionate kiss.
When Sophie went out, the makeup artist was already waiting for her. She immediately touched up her lipstick the moment she saw it was gone.
“Where’s Uncle Tristan?”
Ysabelle had been focusing all her attention on Mark’s performance just now that she had forgotten that her Uncle Tristan had disappeared.
“He must have gone backstage!”
There was no way Felix would believe that Tristan had gone to the washroom.
Just then, Tristan returned to his seat, looking nonchalant.
Felix teased him,
“Mr. Tristan, you can’t bear to let Sophie go for a few minutes? Come on!”
Charles chimed in,
“Mr. Tristan, since when did you become so pathetic? I guess you didn’t get what you want! Shall I arrange for a few ladies to serve you tonight?”
“Even if you kidnap a fairy from Heaven right now and give her to him, she will never be as good as Ms. Tanner,”
teased Sean.
Tristan was absolutely enamored with Sophie. He certainly had no time for other women.
“Am I just like all of you? Even in the past, I was nothing like any of you.”
Tristan was a clean freak. Therefore, he never had the habit of sleeping around even before he met Sophie.
Charles was at a loss for words.
“All right.”
Charles had nothing else to say, for it seemed like he was really the only one who was wasting his life fooling around.
“Ysabelle, what do you think of Charles?”
Ysabelle blinked.
“Charles? Isn’t he a little too old?”
Has he forgotten Charles’ age, or has he forgotten my age?
“Okay, Sophie has started performing now, so quiet down.”
Why are they being so loud instead of watching the wonderful performance!Charles, Felix, and Sean all fell silent at that.
The three of them could only rub their noses awkwardly while looking at Tristan’s solemn expression.
The concert began at eight and ended at half-past eleven. Even after the last song, the fans were still glued to their seats, not wanting to leave.
“Thank you, everyone,”
said Mark, who had always been someone cool and aloof.
The Wheelers then bowed and thanked the audience.
By then, the fans below the stage had started crying.
“That’s insane. Are fans that scary nowadays?”
“How is that insane? Every single member in The Wheelers is amazing. They’re worth going crazy for!”
Ysabelle instantly defended.
“Okay, you guys head back first. I’ll wait here for Sophie.”
Tristan did not have the patience to keep hearing them talk nonsense.
“Let’s go. It looks like we’re doing nothing but wasting time here,”
Sean blinked at the others.
Huh, someone doesn’t want us here.
“Uncle Tristan, can I wait with you for Sophie?”
Ysabelle was still reeling in from the thrill of the concert. She had tons of things to talk to Sophie about, and she really did not want to head back before meeting her.
“It’s late, and the concert was four and a half hours long. Do you think that Sophie still has the energy to talk to you?”
Being involved in the concert was a tiring job. Moreover, she had not even had the chance to practice the songs before going on stage. There was no way she would not be exhausted by then.
“Oh, you’re right. I’ll go back first then. Uncle Tristan, you have to take good care of Sophie.”
Ysabelle could only force the words down her throat and leave with Felix.
When Felix saw how reluctant Ysabelle was, he grabbed her hand and pulled her into his arms so that no one could crash into her.
Ysabelle’s face turned bright red at his gesture.
“Felix, I can walk by myself.”
However, Felix still did not let go of her.
“There are too many people here, and the fans are truly fanatics. I’ll let go of you once we get outside.”
Since he had said that, she did not insist. If she did, things would become awkward.
