Anything For Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 301

Chapter 301 Dance On Our Wedding Night

“Are you okay, Louisa? It’s not that we don’t want to help you, but you saw the earlier situation. They had us completely outnumbered. If we had stepped up—”

“That’s enough! Shut up, all of you!” Louisa was boiling with rage after getting humiliated like that.

“You lot were supposed to be my best friends. Only after what happened today did I discover how much I really mean to you.” The young woman was upset that no one stepped up to help her.

“There were too many of them, Louisa. Besides, it was you who wanted to bet with them,” protested one of Louisa’s friends. It wasn’t our fault that she thought she could win.

“By the way, who exactly was the guy who spoke just now?”

“I’m curious as well. Seeing how protective he was of Sophie, I bet he’s her boyfriend!”

“Louisa, do you really have no idea who he is? You and your family are doomed if he comes after you all.”

Louisa was even more troubled after listening to her friends, for the man who left last did not look like someone she would want to mess with.

“Do you think we, the Yarboroughs, are pushovers and that anyone can threaten us?” she snapped.

“I wouldn’t speak so arrogantly if I were you, young lady. There’s always someone more powerful out there; you never know who you’re dealing with.” The manager of Nocturnal came to see what the commotion was about and was surprised to learn that the young woman before him had the guts to offend Tristan.

“Who is he?” Louisa felt somewhat uneasy after hearing the manager’s words.

“The man who left last? That’s Mr. Northley. Have you heard of him?” Louisa said nothing in response.

Noticing that, the manager added, “You’d better think of a way to appease him. Otherwise, you and your family will be in big trouble.” Still, she remained silent.

At that point, Louisa was no longer in the mood to have fun and hurried home instead. When she reached home and saw her parents, she wanted to complain to them but changed her mind when she recalled the man’s identity.

“What’s wrong, Louisa? Did somebody bully you? If that’s true, you have to let me know,” voiced Louisa’s mother. It was only natural that she got worried since Louisa was her only child.

“Mom, is Mr. Northley powerful?” Louisa often heard her father talk about the four prominent families but had no idea exactly how influential Felix was.

“Mr. Northley? He’s not someone we can afford to offend. Why did you ask, though? Do you know him?”

“I don’t.” Louisa’s face immediately turned pale when she heard her mother’s answer. She dared not mention how she offended Felix at Nocturnal and how he threatened to take everything away from her.

“What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”

“I’m just tired, Mom. I’m going to bed now.” Louisa was so frightened that she decided to hurry into her room instead of telling her family the truth.

“What’s going on with her?” Louisa’s mother could not figure out why her daughter would suddenly mention Felix. That man is in a different class than we are! We definitely can’t trifle with him.

Meanwhile, Tristan took Sophie back to Wisteria Apartments. Even though the latter did not stay there for the past few days, Susan had regularly kept the place clean and ready for her to return to.
