Anything For Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 425

Chapter 425

“What did you think of?” Tristan asked curiously.

Sophie leaned on his shoulder and continued, “We'll probably be very blissful.”

“You can be bolder and remove the word 'probably' in the sentence. As long as I'm here, you'll have a blissful future,” he said, confident in himself. “All right. It has been a tiring day, so take a bath and go to bed.”

“Okay!”

It was eight in the morning when Ysabelle woke up the next day. Darn it; I forgot to set my alarm last night! There's no way I'll be able to reach TS Entertainment in half an hour's time. Mr. Tannen's a strict teacher. He hates tardy people! I'm so doomed.

Anxious, she scrambled out of bed and quickly washed up. In fact, she did not even have the time to put on any makeup, rushing out of the room immediately afterward.

At the sight of her hasty demeanor, Sophie said, “Slow down. I've already helped you take a leave of absence for today, so there's no need to rush.”

It was only then Ysabelle let out a sigh of relief. My goodness, that had been a frightening moment.

“Sophie, you're the best. You're the savior of my life. How am I going to live without you?” she then voiced.

Sophie did not show a big reaction to her words.

“We have to go to school after checking our scores, so I applied for a leave for you.”

It dawned on Ysabelle then. “Oh, I see. Right, we still need to go to school for our university application.” I thought we wouldn't need to go to school anymore.

“By the way, have you checked your score? Sorry. I was too tired last night, so I fell asleep,” Ysabelle added sheepishly. She was the one who insisted on checking their scores together, yet she ended up falling asleep. There was no doubt that she felt embarrassed.

Sophie was nonchalant about it. “It's fine. It'll be the same even if we check now.” It was not as if their scores would change overnight, after all.

“Okay.” Ysabelle then took out her phone to log into the website.

“How did you do?” Sophie asked. If she can't get into Jipsdale University, her dad might give her a hard time.

“Hold on. The website lagged out,” Ysabelle said, holding her breath. Truth be told, she felt that she had done well in the exam.

Still, there was no telling what score she would get.

Finally, the page loaded.

“D*mn!” Never in her wildest dreams did she imagine she would be able to get a score such as that.

“How is it?” Sophie asked worriedly. After all, Ysabelle was not academically talented to the point that her score would remain stable regardless of the papers' difficulty.

“It's six hundred eighty-nine!” Even Ysabelle herself was in disbelief. Her scores in the first few mock examinations had only been around six hundred fifty, so getting six hundred eighty-nine was beyond her expectations.

“Mm, not bad!” Tristan was quite pleased after hearing her result. Ysabelle's efforts had not gone to waste.

“Sophie, you really are my savior! I've only encountered good things ever since I met you!” Ysabelle exclaimed in excitement.

I'm sure my dad has nothing to say now!

“This is all thanks to your hard work; it doesn't have much to do with me,” Sophie replied. She did work very hard right before the exams too.

“Of course it does! In the last few days, you taught me how to solve all the questions I didn't know how to answer.”

At the same time, Ysabelle thought that Sophie would make a good teacher.

For the concepts she failed to understand even after their teacher taught them, she understood right away when Sophie explained them to her.

It was like a miracle.

Ysabelle chirped, “What about you? You must have scored above seven hundred!” There's no way Sophie is going to have any issues with the university entrance exam. Even if she's not one of the high achievers, she'll still get an impressive score.

“I'm not sure. I haven't checked it yet,” Sophie responded.

“Aren't you curious about your score? Hurry up and check it! I'm sure Old Mr. Tanner wants to know it as well!”

Sure enough, right after those words fell from Ysabelle's lips, Josiah called.

“Soph, have you checked your score yet? What did you get?” Josiah blurted out.

He seemed even more excited than his granddaughter.

“I haven't checked it yet. I'll tell you once I do,” Sophie promised.

Josiah urged, “Why aren't you eager to see your score? Hurry up and check it! I've already invited your teacher to our house to consult about the universities you should apply to!”

“What? You invited our teacher to our house?” There's no need for that!

“Of course. In any case, this is an important matter! How can I not invite your teacher for a consultation?” Josiah stubbornly said.

He fretted much over all matters pertaining to Sophie.

“Even if you don't need the consultation, Willow would need it. All right, I'm not going to chat with you for long. Come home once you've checked your score,” he said at the end.

“Your teacher is waiting for you at home!” went unsaid.

“What's going on?” Tristan asked in concern upon noticing Sophie's expression. “Did something happen to Old Mr. Tanner?”

Sophie shook her head and answered, “He's totally fine.”

“Then what's with that look on your face?”

“He invited our teacher to our place, saying that he wants to consult the teacher about my university application.” Why did he have to do that? I can decide by myself which university I want to study at...

“All right, don't look so somber. Old Mr. Tanner's doing this for your sake,” Tristan comforted her. To an old man, a teacher would seem more experienced in making major life decisions like this.

“I know,” Sophie replied. She would never get mad at her grandfather.

“Sophie, you should check your score first,” Ysabelle entreated, eager to know how much her best friend had scored.

“Okay.”

Since they all seemed very enthusiastic about her score, Sophie decided to check it right away.

After keying in her registration number and password, she stared at her phone screen in stunned silence.

“What score did you get?” Ysabelle queried, wondering why Sophie had a look like that on her face.

“There isn't any score on the screen.”

“What? What's going on?” Ysabelle was baffled. How is that possible? Sophie should have a score above seven hundred!

Tristan then took Sophie's phone to look at its screen and discovered she was right—there was no score on the page.

“You're right. It didn't display any score!” Ysabelle exclaimed.

She was still in disbelief but was forced to accept reality after checking the screen of Sophie's phone. “How can this be? You should have filled in the correct registration number, right?”

“It must have been hidden,” Tristan commented.

As it turned out, he was familiar with that scene.

Back then, Tristan and Sean could not check their scores for the university entrance exam too. Then, when it was finally released, the former was revealed to be the top scorer, while Sean was right behind him.

“Wow! Only the high achievers will have their scores hidden. I knew it. Sophie never disappoints,” Ysabelle praised in amazement.

Sophie was at a loss for words. That might not be the case.

“All right. In that case, I'll have to take a trip home,” she voiced. Her grandfather had invited their teacher to the Tanner residence, after all. She had to make an appearance there.

“I'll come with you,” Tristan offered.

“It's fine. You should do what you need to do instead.” Sophie rejected his offer as she knew he had been quite busy recently. There was no need for him to keep her company at all times.

“It's okay. I'll send you there, greet Old Mr. Tanner, and leave.” No matter how busy he was, he would always have time to drive her around.

“Well, I'll head to TS Entertainment, then. I haven't mastered the dance I learned,” Ysabelle chimed in.

“Dance? You dance?” Tristan blurted, bewildered to hear that his niece was learning to dance.

“What's wrong? Is it that surprising?” Ysabelle retorted. As she knew some basics of dancing, all that was left for her to do was practice diligently.

“I am. You gave up the last time because of how hard it was.” Tristan never thought that Ysabelle could persevere through it then.
