Pursuing Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 10

Chapter 10 An Unpleasant Encounter

“Eat your food. Are you going to be full just by staring at me?”

At that, Ysabelle promptly buried her head in the food. While Uncle Tristan is devastatingly handsome, I still can’t get full from staring at him.

Sophie didn’t turn to rebuff their kind intentions, and she ate everything the both of them presented before her.

Her appetite wasn’t ginormous in the first place, so she only ate half a bowl of pasta at most.

Pegasus Pavilion’s dishes were indeed pretty good, but she didn’t eat much.

“Is the food not to your liking?” She’s too thin. She’s almost one point seven meters, but she probably weighs only ninety pounds.

“No, it’s good. I just don’t eat much usually.”

“You eat even lesser than I do, Soph. We are still in the process of growing now, so you’ve got to eat more.” Ysabelle, who had been quiet for a while, started chattering nonstop once more.

“Okay.” Sophie didn’t refute that.

It was rather late after they finished lunch. Tristan personally sent them both to their nightly self-study session.

When the car was five minutes away from school, Felix pulled over.

“Study hard,” Tristan said to Ysabelle.

“Got it, Uncle Tristan! Do you still not know that I’m always a good girl?” Ysabelle was still all smiles.

When Sophie and Ysabelle returned to class, all the students in the class were talking about Yvonne transferring schools.

“Queenie, aren’t you good friends with Yvonne? Why did she suddenly transfer schools? Is it because of the incident this morning?”

“Exactly! Didn’t you say that Sophie will definitely be expelled? What exactly is going on here?”

“How would I know? I can’t even get in touch with her now.”

As soon as Queenie saw Sophie walking in, she immediately zipped her mouth.

Could it really be because of her? But the Zales family is quite reputable in Jipsdale, and the average person can’t possibly affect them.

Ysabelle went back to her seat. Shortly after, she rushed over in search of Sophie.

“This is for you, Sophie! She’s my favorite amateur singer. Although she’s an amateur singer, her music is really great. I love her a lot!” She handed Sophie a music player.

“We should start studying.”

“Ah, then I’ll be returning to my seat.”

Because of Yvonne’s incident, the self-study session that night appeared unusually quiet.

No one dared to pick trouble with Sophie and Ysabelle.

After the self-study session, Ysabelle waited for Sophie at the side.

“Why are you still here?” Her family has probably come to pick her up.

“I’ve been waiting for you! Let’s go! Everyone has left.”

Ysabelle took her bag out from the drawer and carried it before she went out with Sophie.

They had only walked for a little while when the car they rode in that afternoon came into sight.

“Your uncle is here to pick you up, so go home first.”

However, Ysabelle grabbed her hand and refused to let go.

“I’ll have him drop you off first.” While saying that, she resolutely dragged Sophie into the car.

This time, Tristan drove personally without Felix there. Finally, Ysabelle’s wish to sit with Sophie in the back seat came true.

Throughout the drive, she was still the one to chatter endlessly. Sophie, on the other hand, gave brief answers occasionally.

Tristan drove Ysabelle home first.

“You must help me send Sophie back, Uncle Tristan. You’re not allowed to bully her, okay? If you do so, I’ll… I’ll… Never mind. You probably won’t do that.” Ysabelle truly didn’t have the guts to threaten her uncle.

Only after watching her enter the Lombard manor did Tristan turn the car around.

“What exactly do you want from me, Mr. Tristan?”
