Pursuing Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 499

He didn't care who it was but he just would not stand anyone who tried to degrade Sophie.

“Boss, look at him. He's getting all mad,” one of Harold's lackeys teased.

Harold let out a derisive snort.

“Missy, it's not going to do you any good being together with him. Why don't you stick to me instead? I'll be sure to treat you well,” Harold said.

“What crazy nonsense are you spewing right now?” Sunny berated.

He regretted calling Sophie over.

It was only a matter of getting into a fight if it only involved men.

However, things were more complicated with Sophie being there.

She was a girl, and a pretty girl at that.

Thus, it was dangerous for her to come to a place like this.

Sophie smiled and shrugged as if she didn't care.

“It seems like you're quite spirited today. I guess you're not going back if I don't play with you for a bit, huh?” Sophie retorted.

“Ah, you have such a pleasing voice as well. You're exactly my type, girl. Well, you're right. I'm going to have fun with you today.”

“Oh, really? What do you have in mind?”

Sophie gauged him with a fearless look on her face.

Who the hell do you think you are? You're gonna play with me huh?

“How else can a woman and a man play? Get in bed and I'll teach you a thing or two,” Harold said with a lecherous smile.

The members of The Wheelers found his lewd smile off-putting.

They could put up with a myriad of things, but they could never tolerate any men looking at Sophie like that.

“It seems we're going to spill some blood today,” Sunny declared.

However, before he did anything, Sophie had already sent Harold flying with a kick.

“You should be honored.” Sophie would not let anyone bully The Wheelers, not especially when she was around.

Harold was infamous for being a huge bully.

Therefore, he did not expect to be sent flying by a girl's kick.

“Boss, are you all right?”

Harold's lackeys immediately helped him to his feet.

He was so furious that his veins popped.

The girl may seem harmless and weak, but the kick in his stomach really hurt.

It was so painful that Harold could not even stand straight.

Tension hung in the air after Harold was kicked. Both parties even had their guns out.

“Sophie. Come over here.” Is Mark worried that this Harold guy is going to take advantage of me? Meanwhile, Mark pointed his gun at Harold and gestured for Sophie to make her way over.

“Don't get all worked up. They have only a few people here. Are you worried that we can't deal with these small fries?” Sophie said bluntly.

She had faced far more formidable opponents.

They were just a few hooligans, nothing to be afraid of.

“You—”

If Harold had not taken Sophie seriously before, he was starting to see her as a threat following the kick in his stomach.

“Why? Are you thinking of having a match with me? If you don't fancy the idea, get the hell out of here,” Sophie warned.

“Boss, she's too much! I'm going to teach her a lesson right now!”

Harold's lackey could no longer put up with Sophie's attitude.

How could she bully our boss like this? We're going to lose our ground if word of this gets out on the streets.

When his lackey was about to fire, Mark grew even more anxious.

“Sophie, please. Come over here right now,” he pleaded.

It was a real gun, and a shot could really kill.

“Sophie, don't get all worked up because of them. Hurry up and come over here,” Sunny added. He was getting worried as well. These hooligans were not afraid of dying. Why is she giving a crap about them?

“I told you guys not to worry.” Sophie knew that the guys were worried about her. However, those hooligans were nothing to be afraid of.

“D*mn it! Boss, she's really too arrogant! How are we going to show our face in the future if we don't put her in her place?”

The lackey lunged right at Sophie after that.

He was not going to let this golden opportunity to showcase himself slip by.

As long as he avenged Harold, the latter would surely back him up in the future.

However, before he could even lay a finger on Sophie, she had already sent him flying with another kick. The kick was more powerful than the one she gave Harold.

The lackey couldn't even get up from the ground.

He widened his eyes in disbelief at the woman before him.

“Boss, it hurts so much!”

Harold didn't even dare to make a sound.

“Do you want to see who has better marksmanship now? We can begin now if that's what you want,” Sophie said as she snatched over a gun.

Her movement was so swift that they didn't even realize what happened when the gun was already in her hands.

Then, she fired a shot at the most vocal lackey.

She shot precisely where it would hurt the most. He wouldn't die, but he would live to suffer every moment of the excruciating pain.

The lackey convulsed in pain on the ground.

Everyone was rendered speechless at the shocking turn of events.

Is this really the Sophie we know?

Even the hooligans who were used to such violent exchanges were baffled.

She was truly a ruthless woman with few words.

They all thought she embodied the spirit of Emerald Gang perfectly.

Sophie eyed the others and asked, “Who wants to get a taste of this too?”

She was not a violent person, but she would not stand for anyone bullying her friends.

“I'm going to give you guys one minute to get the hell out of my face. Otherwise, don't blame me for not showing mercy.”

Then, she took out her phone and started a countdown timer.

The other lackeys dared not tempt their fate and scurried off, leaving their injured friends behind.

Their turf was important, but nothing was more important than their lives. What good was the turf if they'd all lost their lives?

“Boss, are you abandoning me?”

“Boss, I'm still here!”

The other two lackeys who were injured lay on the ground, immobilized from the pain. They still couldn't get themselves up and had to crawl their way out of there.

“Bring your trash with you. We're not going to clean up after you,” Sophie said. She didn't know the lengths she would have to go to get rid of those hooligans.

Harold sent four men to carry the two injured lackeys back.

With that, the problem was solved.

The four members of The Wheelers were dumbfounded at how things turned out in the end.

They really did not expect that the matter would be resolved so easily.

Sunny didn't even know why he called Sophie. Moreover, he didn't expect her to solve the problem all on her own.

Sophie approached Mark and said, “Mark, didn't I tell you that you're really not suited to be in a gang? One needs to be vicious and ruthless to lead a gang, and you're not carved out to be one of those. Not now, not ever.”

Mark was at a loss for words.

Of course, he knew that he was not suited to lead a gang.

However, there was no one else.

Emerald Gang was his father's legacy.

If he left it all behind, how would he protect the Wheeler family? Mark knew he had to hang in there to protect everyone, even if he was not suited for the role.

“Mark, I think that Sophie's right. You're really not suited to be in a gang.”
