Pursuing Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 868

CHAPTER 868 RIGGED

Sophie took a rest after she was done with her work at TS Entertainment. By then, Ysabelle's album was ranked first in several music streaming applications. Well, one has to admit Ysabelle's album is nothing short of a hit! No matter what others say, excellent songs speak for themselves, so nothing can stop the album from getting the recognition it deserves. This album is going to propel Ysabelle to greater heights and make her a superstar!

“Let's go! You haven't eaten anything, right?” Tristan asked. Ever since the press conference, she hasn't had a proper rest.

“Yeah, let's go. We should check on Ysabelle and have dinner at the Lombard residence.” Sophie hadn't seen Ysabelle since the incident unfolded.

“Sure!”

The couple bumped into The Wheelers on their way out. Naturally, The Wheelers had also heard about the incident.

“Sophie, how is Ysabelle doing? Although what happened was common in this industry, she's still a young girl, so she must've been shaken!” Mark asked in a worried tone. The members of The Wheelers were fond of Ysabelle. However, they couldn't go and visit Ysabelle because their schedule was packed.

“She was frightened, but she's doing fine. She's not as frail as others think!” Despite looking delicate and adorable, Ysabelle was actually a tough girl.

“Good to know. Should we go see her?” Sunny suggested. After all, we're free now.

“Not now, perhaps. Felix is with her now,” Sophie answered.

“All right, then! I actually want to see her very badly.” Sunny pouted, for he was quite fond of Ysabelle.

“She'll be back at TS Entertainment tomorrow. We should just let her get enough rest at home today,” Sophie said. If The Wheelers were to go over, Ysabelle wouldn't get to rest at all.

“Okay!”

Tristan wrapped his arm around Sophie's waist, and the couple walked toward the exit of the building together. Mark and the others seem very concerned about Ysabelle.

With that in mind, Tristan uttered, “Actually, they can visit Ysabelle if they want to. It's not a big deal.”

“Forget it. Ysabelle is now at the Lombard residence. Considering your dad's age, a crowd will only tire him out,” Sophie replied. There are already so many people in the house.

By the time Tristan and Sophie arrived at the Lombard residence, the housekeepers were already done preparing dinner.

However, Ysabelle was still in her room, and Felix remained by her side the whole time.

“Someone get them to come downstairs! It's been so long, and they're still cooped up inside the room. This is outrageous!” William uttered in displeasure. That brat's getting bolder by the day! How dare he stay in Ysabelle's room for such a long time? Does he not know it's inappropriate?

“I'll go get them!” Sarah got up from the couch. I can't believe these two youngsters. They're totally out of line! They know how irritated Dad can get. Why would they stay in the room for so long?

The second Sarah arrived upstairs, Felix had already opened the door to the room. Apparently, William's voice was too loud to ignore, so he had no choice but to exit the room.

Sarah arched a brow when she saw Felix. “Felix, you've always behaved decently. What's the matter with you today?” she asked. Although they're in a relationship, they shouldn't behave so brazenly in the Lombard residence.

“Sarah, I'm just worried about leaving Ysabelle alone, so I stayed in her room to be with her. Please don't overthink. I know what I'm doing,” Felix answered. Even if I wanted to do anything with Ysabelle, I wouldn't do it here.

“What's the matter with you guys, Aunt Sarah?” Ysabelle grumbled. Felix didn't do anything else other than keep me company. They're embarrassing us!

“All right. It's getting late. Let's go down for dinner.” Sarah didn't want to comment further. Despite being slightly older than them, she wasn't a conservative person.

Still, Sarah added, “I don't care what you guys were doing in the room, but please respect your grandpa. Okay?”

Ysabelle was rendered speechless. What? We weren't even doing anything inappropriate!

Felix saw how adorable Ysabelle looked when she pouted grumpily, so he pinched her cheek and said, “It's okay. There's no need to argue, all right? No matter what happens, I'll face the consequences.”

“Okay!” Ysabelle responded. I don't care what everyone else says. I'm into Felix, and that's a fact no one can change.

Ysabelle saw Sophie and Tristan the moment she arrived downstairs, and she immediately dashed toward Sophie to sit next to her.

“Sophie, how's my new album doing? Did the sales get affected?” Ysabelle asked. I've been asleep all this while, and I haven't even had the time to deal with it!

“What's there to worry about with me handling the issue? Don't worry. Here! Have a look yourself.” Sophie handed her phone to Ysabelle.

Ysabelle felt relieved right away when she saw the rankings on several major music charts.

“I love you so much, Sophie! I knew it! You can do anything!” Ysabelle exclaimed. I thought my album would be ruined! Who would've thought the situation would turn out much better than I had expected?

“I told you, didn't I? As long as I'm around, all your problems will be solved,” Sophie replied confidently.

Those words rendered Felix speechless. Why do I feel so incompetent when Sophie is around? She's taking over my role!

“I love you, Sophie! You're the best!” Ysabelle was over the moon. At that instant, all her troubles seemed to have vanished.

“That's enough. Let's eat! It's already so late. Aren't you guys hungry at all?” William huffed.

Hearing that, Ysabelle said in a cute tone, “I know you were also worried about me, Grandpa! Don't worry, everyone! I'm all right.” As a matter of fact, Ysabelle knew that it wasn't a big deal and that she was merely shaken up.

“Good.” William didn't comment further. All that matters is her happiness. After all, she's the precious little princess of the Lombard family.

After dinner, Ysabelle kept staring at her phone to look at the ranking she got. “I have a question for you, Sophie. The ranking I got is legit, right? Did you pay the music charts to make this happen?”

Sophie was caught off guard by that question. “Ysabelle, you've always been confident in your album, no? The recognition you got shouldn't be that surprising.”

Ysabelle felt embarrassed. “I know, and I have full confidence in my album. However, I didn't expect it to do so well.” That was why Ysabelle was skeptical.

Ysabelle then hugged Sophie and said, “What would I do without you, Sophie?” I couldn't have gotten to where I am today without Sophie.

“Even without me, you would still be successful,” Sophie responded. I merely provided Ysabelle with the opportunity, and the rest is up to her. If she weren't capable, no amount of money could buy her success.

“Well, nothing can change the love I have for you!” Ysabelle was love-struck. Felix saw how she acted, and he wasn't pleased.
