Pursuing Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 891

Wendy sobbed even louder when she heard that. “Please don’t do anything like that ever again, Ms. Lineker! We’re all going to keep you company as you go through this!”

She still has us by her side, so she shouldn’t have to resort to suicide!

Wilma’s face was incredibly pale, and she felt as though someone had dug a huge chunk out of her heart.

She couldn’t bring herself to accept the fact that she had lost everything.

“I’m sorry I disappointed you, Ms. Sophie,” Wilma said as she closed her eyes and tried to disperse the sadness in them.

I didn’t want things to end like this, but I didn’t have a choice! Just thinking about that child is enough to keep me up at night…

Sophie shook her head. “You still have us, Ms. Lineker. You can always talk to us if you ever feel depressed. I’ll do my best to help you out with your problems, so please don’t do anything like this ever again, okay?”

As Wilma would require treatment from a psychiatrist, Sophie had taken the liberty of finding her the best psychiatrist available.

Even so, she would still need Wilma to cooperate with the psychiatrist in order for the treatment to be effective.

“I would like to resign, Ms. Sophie. Right now, I don’t feel like doing anything at all. Leaving this place might be the only way for me to recover from all this.”

The heartache was so intense that every second she spent in that city felt suffocating.

“What are you saying, Ms. Lineker? Transfix Cosmetics is your life’s work! How could you just leave like that?” Wendy exclaimed while staring at Wilma in shock and disbelief.

Wilma founded Transfix Cosmetics and developed it herself. It held an incredibly important place in her heart.

They could not believe that she was going to abandon Transfix Cosmetics.

“Don’t worry about this for the time being. Ms. Lineker. You have all the time in the world to reconsider this decision after you fully recover. If you still wish to resign then, I will grant your request.”

Nothing could possibly be more important than a person’s health, and Sophie did not want to agitate her any further at the moment.

However, if Wilma still wished to resign after recovering fully, she would approve of her resignation.

“All right, then. Thank you.”

Wilma was still weak after waking up. She got tired after having that brief conversation.

Sophie stopped disturbing her from resting, but she and Wendy were too worried about Wilma to leave her alone, so they decided to stay and look after her instead.

Wendy spent the entire night crying in the corridor.

I knew nothing when I first started working at Transfix Cosmetics. It was Ms. Lineker who took me under her wing and guided me one step at a time. Ms. Lineker would always help me out whenever I got bullied, but now, she’s going to leave the company….

“Ms. Sophie, what should we do about Ms. Lineker?” she asked with tears in her eyes.

Sophie gently patted her on the cheek and said, “You let me worry about that. For now, just take some time off work and look after Ms. Lineker here.”

As if everything that had happened to Wilma wasn’t bad enough, she was all alone in that city with no relatives to count on.

“Okay. Maybe you should head on back, Ms. Sophie. I’ll stay here and take good care of Ms. Lineker!”

“It’s fine. I’ll stick around for a little while longer.”

“In that case, you keep watch while I go use the restroom. We’ll switch after I get back so you can use the restroom too,” Wendy said and walked away.

Tristan wrapped an arm around Sophie’s shoulder and let her lean on his.

“Wilma is fine now. You should try and get some rest too.”

Sophie nodded and rested her head on his shoulder.
