Rise Above The Betrayal (Sophia and Tristan) novel Chapter 84

Chapter 84 

Chapter 84 

Sophia’s retreat made Tristan’s smile deepen even further, his low, lazy laughter like a hook. 

Progress had reached here. 

It was already considered a good improvement. 

He couldn’t rush it. 

So as not to scare his girl. 

Tristan chuckled as he moved his fingers away from the girl’s brow, slowly withdrawing his hand. 

Those slender fingers, with distinct joints, brushed past Sophia’s eyes. 

The burning heat disappeared. 

Sophia, however, felt a bit… uncomfortable. 

Especially when she saw his long hand, she inexplicably recalled the touch and warmth of that hand on her head and brows. Her long eyelashes fell, averting her gaze from that hand, and she pulled a chair to sit down in front of the hospital bed.” 

After Tristan left the hospital room 

Sophia finally felt… she could breathe. 

She took several deep breaths, but couldn’t stop her heart from racing for a long time. 

Tristan returned to the hospital room with a takeaway from the best restaurant in Virelia. 

As soon as he pushed the door open, he saw the girl sitting on the chair by the hospital bed, leaning back against the chair, her head slightly tilted, and her eyes tightly closed. 

It was clear that Sophia was indeed exhausted. 

Even with her eyes closed to rest, it was obvious that her porcelain–white, coldly beautiful face was filled with fatigue. 

Even him pushing the door open didn’t wake her. 

Tristan quietly closed the door, gently placed the takeout thermal container on the outer dining table, and slowly walked towards Sophia. 

His deep–set eyes were fixed on the girl’s peaceful sleeping face 

The girl, with her eyes closed, looked unlike her usual cold self, as her long lashes cast graceful fan–shaped shadows. 

Her crimson lips were full and beautiful, breathtaking in their allure. 

Tristan’s gaze fell on the girl’s enchanting red lips, his eyes growing darker, something rippling in the depths of them.

His slightly prominent Adam’s apple moved up and down. 

His heart pounded like thunder, making his blood searingly hot 

Tristan’s eyes became increasingly dark and obscure, fixed deeply on the girl’s face, tinted with intense restraint and 

emotions. 

As if he was bewitched. 

He slightly leaned down, approaching the girl in that moment. 

Only then did the surging tide in his eyes die down a little. 

He paused slightly. 

Tristan then realized… 

He was so, so close to Sophia. 

Close enough that their noses almost touched. 

Close enough that he could feel the girl’s fragrant breath gently exhaling onto his face. 

His heart pounded like a drum being beaten 

The unique fragrance of the girl, like a poppy, tangled with his rationality. 

He stared at the pair of glossy crimson lips 

Suddenly, the girl’s long, drooping lashes fluttered almost imperceptibly. 

Tristan’s eyes slightly narrowed, the corners lifting ever so slightly to form a low, enchanting arc of brilliance. 

In his eyes, a smile slowly spread. 

Sophia remained still with her eyes closed. 

Actually… 

The moment Tristan approached, Sophia had already keenly sensed it. 

She was about to open her eyes. 

But suddenly, she felt the man’s warm breath, carrying a rich cold woody fragrance, approach her nose. 

For some reason, she didn’t open her eyes. 

Her heart seemed to be scratched by something. 

What… is he doing?” 

-Because she couldn’t see, Sophia’s senses and hearing became even sharper. 

Even her skin… became more sensitive.

She could feel the man getting closer to her. 

It was a proximity different from before. 

That kind of breath, scorching and boiling, seemed to surge with some kind of exciting factor, burning her heart intensely. 

It made her whole body warm up. 

Until a warm touch reached her nose tip. 

That flamboyant and scorching breath intensified in an instant, entwining their breaths as it burst downward. 

Sophia instinctively held her breath, as her heart beat wildly, pounding like a drum. 

She realized what the man intended to do. 

She should open her eyes immediately to st 

Reason told her to do so. 

what was going to happen next. 

But those slightly trembling long eyelashes, however, showed no signs of opening for a long while. 

In her mind… 

The man’s aloof and handsome face, like a masterpiece of art, unexpectedly appeared, close to her face. 

The slender and glamorous scarlet lips shimmered like springs, Brushing against her face, murmuring her name in a husky voice, “Sofi… 

Her cheeks suddenly grew hot. 

During the entwined breaths, the man’s sexy Adam’s apple moved countless times as he gazed deeply into the girl’s eyes. 

He approached, not taking advantage of the situation. 

It was instead out of an irresistible impulse, 

But his remaining rationality restrained him. 

Yet, when he saw the girl’s trembling lashes and her rosy cheeks, glowing with radiant colors. 

All his restraint and endurance collapsed at that moment. 

The storm surged in his eyes like a beast long held captive, breaking out of its cage… 

The lips finally pressed against each other 

With a tinge of obsession and madness, he kissed deeply. 

It was enough to make both of them melt. 

Sophia’s breath completely stalled, until she was almost suffocating. Her long lashes fluttering violently, she darted her eyes. wide and bright, filled with shock and disbelief.

Did he… actually kiss her? 

She thought… it was just her speculation. 

Perhaps Tristan’s approach was only because something was on her face? In her hair? 

But… 

He actually, really kissed her! 

Why? 

Why would he kiss her? 

In Sophia’s wide open bright eyes the man’s exquisitely handsome face was reflected. He was slightly squinting at the moment, yet from this distance, she could still see the intense emotions surging in the depths of his eyes. 

It was like a ferocious beast breaking out of its cage, baring its fangs and claws, and swallowing her whole. Due to such close proximity, the man’s fair skin was even tinged with a few shades of gorgeous peach. It made his whole being exude a cold yet seductive allure. 

An allure that was… utterly captivating, 

The girl’s face turned increasingly red, and her bright eyes opened wider and wider. 

Tristan, who was entwining with the girl’s lips, wanted to laugh wearing a helpless face. 

He released her, his hoarse voice tense, teeming with hormonal tension, “Breathe.” 

Even though their lips no longer touched. 

Tristan’s nose remained against hers, their foreheads also touching. 

Sophia’s lashes, like hummingbird heartbeats, trembled even more, and the man’s voice in her ear seemed to come from a distant place. 

She felt a bit dizzy. 

“Sofi, if you don’t breathe, I’ll have to give you artificial respiration,” he said, looking at the girl’s nearly suffocated, flushed peach complexion. 

Tristan looked even more helpless then, but he still chuckled in low voice, breathing heavily. His smiling eyes made him even more seductive. 

Sophia’s mind suddenly buzzed and exploded. 

As if suddenly coming back to her senses, she opened her mouth gasping for air. 

They were too close. 

Every breath she took was filled with the man’s cold scent.

As if she was inhaling all of his breath into her own body. 

“You… 

Gasping for air, Sophia finally felt like she’d survived, her long lashes and lips trembling. 

But, just as she uttered a single word. 

Sophia vaguely sensed that something was not quite right. 

Her eyes flickered slightly, then she suddenly turned her head around to look towards the hospital bed. 

Sure enough…. 

She met a pair of somewhat cloudy eyes, yet filled with a smile. 

It was… Andrew Yeats who had been in a coma all this time. 

Their eyes met. 

Sophia’s eyes slowly widened. 

The elder’s hazy eyes gradually became clearer, and his smile grew brighter… 

Sophia’s face turned beet instantly. 

Barely a second of being stunned, 

She suddenly raised her hand and pressed the shoulder of the man whose forehead was still against hers. 

She had no idea how she managed it. 

With a seeming backhand move, she was already on her feet, while Tristan was pushed into the chair she had just vacated. 

The girl’s slender, fair fingers clenched the fabric of Tristan’s shirt front. 

Her five fingers tightened as if she were giving him a severe punishment. 

Of course, her beet red earlobes showed that wasn’t the truth. 

“Since, since Grandpa is awake, I’ll be leaving now! Next time… next time I have time, I’ll come again to do acupuncture for Grandpat 

Sophia no longer dared to look at Tristan’s eyes that still held a tender smile. 

Leaving behind these words. 

She released his shirt, grabbed her backpack, and dashed out of the ward. 

Crazy! 

Truly crazy! 

She was crazy.

Tristan was crazy too! 

She had thought she definitely wouldn’t be swayed by a handsome face. 

How did she just let Tristan kiss her?! 

She was even… even caught by Tristan’s grandfather. 

It was utterly embarrassing. 

Sophia couldn’t imagining meeting Andrew Yeats again. 

She covered her face, feeling the heat on her cheeks rising. 

She rubbed her face vigorously. 

‘Calm down, calm down! 

Inside the ward. 

Tristan leaned against the backrest, his hazel eyes fixed on the closed ward door, a lingering smile on his lips. 

The white shirt on his chest was already messed up by the girl’s grab, revealing his fair skin. 

He chuckled in a low voice, sounding satisfied. 

The way she panicked like a bristling cat and her blushing face were truly adorable. 

Little bristling cat…
