Changing only for her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 1010 The Night Before the Wedding 

Cecelia was a tad flustered to see Sean again. But being an award-winning actress, she could conceal all her emotions perfectly.

She acted all nonchalant instead.

“Make sure that the three of you send them back safely,” Sophie said, singling Sean and Cecelia out in particular.

Since she likes him so much, I’ll create an opportunity for her so she won’t have any regrets even if things still end up not working out between them at the end of the day.

Even after getting into the car, she remained concerned about Cecelia. Cecelia worried her the most.

With Sean being the person she likes, she’s destined to face unsurmountable hardships!

“What are you thinking about?” While maneuvering the steering wheel with one hand, Tristan grasped Sophie’s hand with the other.

“Nothing much. I’m just worried about Cecelia.” She’s in an abysmal state, and it also shows during her filming recently.

“Because of Sean?”

Something or other must have happened between them.

“Yeah.” Sophie kept no secrets with Tristan.

“All right, you’ll be my bride tomorrow, so think about all that later. Sean is a rational person. and he knows what he’s doing.”

“Okay.”

Tristan drove Sophie to her mansion as she elected to have him pick her up from there the next day instead of the Tanner residence.

It was late then, and he still had to make some preparations for the wedding reception tomorrow.

At the door, he gathered her into his arms.

“It’s late, so I won’t be going in. Rest earlier after you go into the house. The makeup artists will be here at a little over five o’clock tomorrow, but there’s no need to accommodate them. Make sure you have enough sleep.”

The Night Before the Wedding

I’ve waited for such a long time anyway that a little longer won’t make any difference.

“Okay. You, too. Rest earlier when you get home. Having a wedding is awfully tiring.” Although they had already simplified the procedures, it was ultimately a marriage ceremony, so it was still very much exhausting.

Cecelia and Butterfly would be coming over that night to keep Sophie company. The mansion was enormous, so there was naturally room for them. In the end, even Ysabelle came.

When Tristan saw that Felix had driven over, he shot the latter a look.

“Mr. Tristan, she’s a bridesmaid too. Let her stay here as she wishes,” Felix said helplessly.

“Fine, then. But don’t talk deep into the night, okay?” Tristan instructed.

“Don’t worry, Uncle Tristan!”

After Tristan and the others left, Sophie led the girls into the mansion. Morgan had been cleaning the place all this time. There was not a speck of dust to be found.

As soon as Morgan heard movements, he sprang to his feet. He was exceedingly excited since he had watched Sophie grow up.

Old Mr. Tanner loved Ms. Sophie most in the past. Now that she’s getting married, he would definitely be over the moon if he were to learn about it in heaven!

“You’re back, Ms. Sophie! I’ve already straightened all the rooms. Meanwhile, your wedding gown and accessories are in your room.” Verily, he was ecstatic that he could personally witness Sophie getting married.

The smile had never left his face in the past few days.

Mr. Tristan is really a good man. Ms. Sophie will undoubtedly enjoy happiness all her days by marrying him!

“Why didn’t you go to bed earlier when it’s already this hour, Morgan? There are still a lot of things to do tomorrow. Go and rest. There’s no need to bother about us.”

“Okay. Don’t stay up too late talking either when you’ve got to be a beautiful bride tomorrow, Ms. Sophie.”

“I know.”

It was already late at night, but Ysabelle was not the least bit sleepy. She was thrilled to the core that Sophie was getting married.

The Night Before the Wedding

“Gosh, what should I do? I’m not sleepy at all. Sophie, I-”

“Stop. Okay, let’s all turn in. We have to wake up early tomorrow to get our makeup done.”

As they would be having a traditional wedding, the makeup would take a long time. However, Tristan had hired a skilled styling team, so they probably would not disappoint.

“All right, then. You rest earlier, too.” Ysabelle and Butterfly retired for the night.

Cecelia, on the other hand, had yet to arrive. No one knew how things were presently going between her and Sean.

When Sophie returned to her room and took in the things there, she still felt surreal.

Am I truly getting married? Oh yes, I’m really marrying the man I love at twenty-one years old. Beyond a shadow of a doubt, we’ll live happily ever after for the rest of our days!

Meanwhile, Cecelia sat in the passenger seat, feeling pretty exasperated with the man who seemed to have something to say to her yet was hesitant to speak.

“Rest assured that I won’t pester you endlessly, Mr. Burton! I’m not such a kind of woman. It was merely a one-night stand. I’m not that conservative.”

Argh! Why must he act as though he has suffered a great injustice? Despite being in the entertainment industry, I’ve always been chaste. I was also a virgin before I spent the night with him!

“That’s not what I meant, Cecelia. If you want, we can get married.”

As a man, Sean felt that he should take responsibility for his actions.

“Never mind that! Isn’t it better to find a man who truly loves me? Why should I marry one who doesn’t?”

Cecelia swung open the car door, no longer willing to listen to him, not even for a second further.

Only when she entered the mansion and stepped into the living room did she see that Sophie was still waiting for her there.

Sophie was the person who understood her best in the entire world, and she had nothing to hide before her.

“I’m fine.”

Sophie hugged her tightly.

At such a time, any words of comfort would appear superfluous. For that reason, she said nothing at all.

“Okay, go to sleep. You have to wake up early tomorrow to get your makeup done.” It’ll be a tiring day tomorrow.

A glance at the time showed that it was already half past eleven. Sophie needed to wake around five o’clock the following morning, so she went to bed after leading Cecelia to her room.

She had no idea how others felt when they were going to get married, but she had always been looking forward to that day.

As she was getting married tomorrow, she was so excited at that moment that sleep eluded her.

She had always been calm and unruffled, especially after so many things had happened. No matter what she faced, she remained generally composed.

Right then, however, she was really psyched.

Likewise, Tristan remained wide awake at the Lombard residence.

His dream was going to come true tomorrow, and he still found it too good to be true.

Felix did not go home either that day. He was one of the groomsmen, so he decided to stay at the Lombard residence.

At the sight of Tristan on pins and needles, he could not help bursting into laughter. He walked over and plopped down across from the man.

“Why are you not sleeping at this hour, Mr. Tristan? Even now, there are only a few hours left. Can you be in tip-top shape tomorrow?”

“It’s not that I don’t want to sleep, but I can’t. Truthfully, things have been smooth sailing for me in my entire life. No matter what I want, I can always obtain it effortlessly. But then, Sophie is the person I care about most.” Honest to God, she’s the only thing I’m most concerned about. Everything else doesn’t matter.

“Yeah, we can all see that.” How could we possibly fail to perceive that? She’s utterly precious to him, and no one is allowed to touch or offend her!
