Pursuing Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 1002

However, just as those mighty men reached Sophie, Sophie made her move. She was swift, and in less than five minutes, she had downed them all.

Howard’s expression darkened. Those men he brought that day were all capable fighters because he was always stirring up trouble.

Yet, they could not hold their ground against Sophic.

Even his female companion was frightened. She could not wrap her head around why things had turned out this way. Moreover, she had uttered many humiliating insults earlier, and she was afraid that the other woman would punch her in retaliation.

Howard gulped.

Carl was equally dumbfounded.

Is Ms. Sophie that impressive? So I’m the one making a fool of myself. I can’t believe I was thinking of protecting Ms. Sophie earlier too! What in the world was I thinking about?

Howard’s female companion no longer dared to stick around at that point.

“Mr. Lynder, I suddenly remembered I have something to do, so I’m going to take my leave first.” The woman then scurried away.

Howard wanted to escape, too, but right as he was about to discreetly move backward, Sophie stepped over to his front.

Howard turned red in the face.

“Ms. Tanner, what are you doing? We bear no grudges against each other. There must be a misunderstanding!”

“A misunderstanding? Howard, I’m giving you one last chance. Why did you kidnap Victor White?”

Howard was quiet for a moment.

So she’s here because of Victor.

“What are you talking about? I have no idea what you’re saying! I really don’t! Did something happen to Victor?”

So what if I don’t like Victor? What’s the big deal about him? He doesn’t have anyone powerful to back him up, but he really thought he could lord over me.

But, of course, those were words that Howard would not say out loud.

“Is that so? It seems like you won’t give up until the very last second,” Sophie icily said.

Howard’s eyes flitted toward the men who were still on the ground. He turned paler.

“Ms. Tanner, didn’t you want to collaborate with us? Let’s do that, but you have to fire Victor. What happened between Victor and I is personal,” was all Howard could say

Regardless of everything, he wanted the man he disliked gone.

“So, you really were the one who kidnapped him,” Sophie said, satisfied. She had received her answer. “Let’s go.”

“Where to?” Howard trembled in fear. The woman looked like a goddess, but she was the devil incarnate the second she started fighting.

“To get on your knees and apologize.”

Sophie was walking ahead, so Howard tried to take the opportunity to run. However, Carl stopped him.

“Mr. Lynder, I’d advise you against pointless struggling. You should know how impressive Ms. Tanner is in fighting.”

At that, Howard had no choice but to slink behind them.

Once Sophie entered the car, Howard tried to climb in after her.

“Do you think you’re worthy of sitting next to Ms. Sophie?” Carl asked coldly.

Howard arched a brow and wondered where he was supposed to sit.

In the next second, Carl opened the trunk.

Howard was about to fly into a rage. There was no one in Jipsdale who had ever treated him in this way, and yet, Sophie and Victor’s secretary were trying to make themselves the exception.

“This way, please, Mr. Lynder. An animal like you only deserves a spot in the trunk,” Carl gleefully uttered. Howard had always been mean to them all, and Carl was finally getting the chance to get back at Howard.

It felt amazing.

“You…” Howard snarled, but Carl was not at all intimidated.
