Chapter 200 How Terrifying
“Soph!” Sophie’s words had touched Sunny. “You’ll always be a member of The Wheelers. But we want to celebrate our achievements with you, not drag you into trouble.”
People often took offense to Mark’s words and behavior. But isn’t this the characteristic of a rock band’s members?
All rock band members had strong personalities, and they would not do anything against their will.
Mark shook his head. “Soph, I know you’re doing this for us, but I hope you can stay away from this mess.”
He was worried something bad might happen to Sophie.
Sophie was unhappy to hear that. What do they take me for? On the one hand, they said I’ll always be a member of The Wheelers, but on the other hand, they want me to stay out of their affairs!
Tristan, who had been observing them, finally voiced his thought. “Why should we be afraid of Clayton?” Does he think I, Tristan Lombard, am scared of an insignificant man like Clayton? What a joke!
“You—” Mark was surprised that the man, who had all this while been quiet, made that remark.
“Since you can’t work with Clayton anymore, why don’t you terminate your contract with him? There’s no point continuing this partnership.”
More importantly, Clayton’s company would be in deep waters soon anyway. Tristan thought they should get off the sinking ship.
“What? Terminate our contract with Clayton?” I don’t think he’ll let us off so easily! Based on the contract, they would still need to work with Clayton for another year. There’s no way he will release us!
“I’ll take care of it.”
Tristan would not turn a blind eye to Sophie’s problem. To Tristan, getting Clayton to agree to the contract termination was not a difficult task.
“You’ll take care of it?” Mark could not believe what he heard. This man does look capable, but can he take Clayton on?
“Yes, you should leave this to Mr. Tristan since he’s willing to help!” Sophie would have been able to solve the problem, but since Tristan had offered his help, she thought she might as well reveal his identity.
“Mr. Tristan?”
Sunny could not believe his ears. The man whom we treated with hostility is Mr. Tristan from Lombard Group in Jipsdale?
“Yes. Lombard Group can take care of your contract, so don’t worry!” Sophie said bitterly. She was still upset that the band members had no confidence in her, even though she could tackle this problem without Tristan’s help.
“Why do you want to help us?” Mark asked. Why would Lombard Group help us? Does he not know it’s a tough row to hoe? I guess he’s doing this for Sophie.
“I just want to help. That’s all.”
Mark did not know what else to say. He still could not believe Sophie had befriended an influential figure like Tristan.
“All right, Soph. Let’s go home. I’ll get Eustace to handle this man,” Tristan said. Eustace has nothing to do anyway. This will keep him busy for a while.
“All right!”
Tristan gave Felix a call. “Ask Eustace to come over right now.”
When Eustace arrived, he noticed how disheveled Clifford was.
Eustace was aware of what Clifford had done in the past, but he would typically ask his subordinates to deal with him. After all, he would not want to waste his time and energy dealing with such an insignificant person.
“Take him away!” Eustace ordered his subordinates.
“Captain Sheppard, why does the SWAT team have to handle that small fry?” What a waste of resources!
“Zip it. Just do your job, and stop questioning the boss.”
Meanwhile, Danny had just arrived.
