Pursuing Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 53

Chapter 53 In His Arms

Tristan instantly furrowed his brows, evidently upset.

“Excuse me.”

“Yes, mister? What can I do for you?”

“Bring a new plate for me.”

Everyone was rendered speechless. So, he’s still a germaphobe; he’s just fine with Sophie.

Winter’s face turned purple with rage. Does he hate me that much? Besides, I was using a new fork!

“Ms. Tanner, I heard that you have good grades. Did you rank second in grades?” Sean abruptly mentioned.

“It’s just average.”

“Ha,” Winter sneered. That’s nothing to be proud of. She’s just a nerd.

“Ms. Tanner, you’re quite good with your words. Maybe you can think about studying law. If you actually do that, you can come and work at Burtons’ Law Firm.”

The best lawyer from the best law firm in the country was offering her a place in his company.

Winter frowned. When did Sean become such a bootlicker? Isn’t Burtons’ Law Firm the hardest place to get into? It’s a hundred times more challenging than the examination for civil servant job applications.

“Thank you for the offer, but I’m not interested in becoming a lawyer,” came Sophia’s reply.

“It’s still a while before the start of the university entrance exam. You can take your time to consider this.”

It was the first time the others had heard so many words from Sean.

“Okay.”

“Ms. Tanner, there’s a revolution going on in your company. I wonder what thoughts you have about that?” There were many women who looked pretty, but there were few who had a brain. Winter felt that she was the latter, for she handled her perfumery business well, and that was why she looked down on Sophie.

“Nothing much.”

“Ha,” Winter gleefully chuckled. I knew it. She’s nothing but a bimbo!

“Winter, I’m the main character of the day. Why are you so focused on Soph?” Ysabelle was well aware that Winter was targeting Sophie. If it wasn’t for Charles, she would have flipped the table in fury.

“Sorry. I’ll down a glass to right my wrong,” Winter said as she picked up a glass, feeling much better.

With that ongoing mess in the Tanner family, I’m sure Sophie isn’t living her best life right now. As long as she’s unhappy, I’m happy.

“Finish your milk.” Tristan handed Sophie the glass of milk.

Sophie sighed in exasperation, but she still took the glass from him.

After all, he was doing that for her sake, and she figured she could not embarrass him like that.

Winter scoffed in disdain at the sight of Sophie’s meek demeanor. She’s just Tristan’s pet. He’ll get sick of her eventually. If she’s not cunning enough, she won’t survive in our social circle.

After the meal, they went to the most famous bar in Jipsdale called Nocturnal.

Ysabelle was not of age back then, so they never brought her to places like Nocturnal. However, now that she was finally of age, she insisted on going to the bar.

Sean and Charles walked in the front while Felix and Ysabelle were behind them. After those four were Tristan and Sophie, with Winter walking last.

She could not help but clench her fists at the sight of the two in front of her.

If it wasn’t for Sophie, I would have been the one beside Tristan.

Once they were inside Nocturnal, Felix and Ysabelle went and sit on a two-seater couch while Sean sat in an armchair.

The couch Sophie and Tristan sat on was the middle three-seater couch. When Winter saw that there was space left on the couch, she tried to take a seat beside Tristan. However, Charles pulled her away to sit beside him.

“Charles, what are you doing?” I didn’t even do anything yet!

“Don’t make Mr. Tristan mad. You won’t be able to bear the consequences.”

In fact, I don’t think anyone in Jipsdale is able to bear the consequences of angering him.

Winter did not want to admit defeat, but she was afraid of actually infuriating Tristan.

Naturally, Nocturnal’s manager knew who these people were. Thus, he arranged the best seats for them.

Then, he hired the best bartender to serve them.

“Mister, please make me the best cocktail.”

This bartender is so handsome!

“Of course, my lady.”
