Pursuing Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 126

Chapter 126 The Distinction Between Men And Women

“First love? I’ve never dated, so I don’t know whether it’s unforgettable or otherwise,” Sophie countered bluntly.

“Oh, really?” How pretentious! Does she think others are entirely ignorant about her past? Yet, she has the audacity to say that she has never dated! Winter seethed internally.

Contrarily, Tristan was over the moon to hear that.

He was the kind of person who kept his feelings under wraps, but right then, everyone present could sense the change in his mood.

At that, Winter grew all the more upset.

What’s so great about that? She’s just feigning innocence! How could people nowadays not have dated a few times when they reach her age?

“Considering your looks, Ms. Tanner, you must have many suitors. How could you possibly not have dated?” she riposted sourly. Indeed, it was a fact that Sophie had a stunningly beautiful countenance.

That was also a sore spot of hers. In fact, she wondered whether Tristan fell in love with Sophie’s looks. Otherwise, she really couldn’t see anything special about her.

“Don’t tell me I must like the person in return just because he likes me?”

It’s true that plenty of people like me since young because my looks are indeed very much attractive. However, it’s not obligatory for me to respond to all of them, is it?

Winter was left without a retort.

Tristan, on the other hand, was even happier after hearing that.

Exactly! Not everyone is worthy of her. I’m the only one who’s worthy of her!

“Keep your focus on eating, Winter. Why are you running your mouth?” Charles was worried that Tristan would fly into a rage, so he stopped Winter from speaking further.

“There are also tons of people who like you, Winter. You must have dated plenty, yes?” Ysabelle definitely sided with Sophie, so she couldn’t help reposting Winter when the latter kept targeting and setting Sophie up.

Winter glanced at Tristan, her gaze speaking volumes. I’ve only loved Tristan since young. How could I possibly take an interest in other men?

Tristan took a piece of barbecue rib for Sophie.

“Don’t just talk. Here, eat this.”

Unbidden, goosebumps rose over everyone else there. Never had they seen him so gentle.

He didn’t even have to do anything that constituted a public display of affection, for he had been keeping an eye on everything about Sophie.

All of a sudden, Winter lost her appetite.

“You guys continue eating. I’m going out for a while.”

Charles breathed a sigh of relief at her departure.

Verily, I don’t know what will happen if she continues staying here. She can never conceal her feelings in front of Tristan. Because of her love for him, she always can’t help hurting others. Never mind if it’s some other girl, but this is Sophie, the girl Tristan likes. Therefore, no one is allowed to offend her.

“I’m really sorry, Sophie. If Winter said anything that upset you, I apologize on her behalf. I hope you don’t take it to heart.” He raised his glass. No matter what, Winter was his sister, so he had to do something about it.

Sophie flashed him a smile.

“I’m not a petty person, so I’m not that easily offended, Mr. Quigley. Don’t worry.”

When Charles heard that, relief suffused him.

“No matter what, I still need to toast you.”

Sophie raised her wine glass and took a tiny sip.

Throughout the entire meal, Tristan kept feeding Sophie.

When they were almost done eating, he snagged two pieces of tissue for her.
