Changing only for her (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 437

Chapter 437

Charmaine belatedly realized what she said, but it was too late to retract her words.

“Sophie, no matter what, we're still a family. I hope this matter isn't related to you,” Charmaine said in the end.

“Ha!” Sophie couldn't help but snort out loud. “I don't have a family like you.”

After all, Charmaine had never sided with her. Not even once.

How dare she suspect I did something to Willow?

With that said, Sophie cut the line instantly, not bothering to entertain the woman any longer.

No matter what she said, Charmaine still wouldn't trust her. Thus, it was pointless for her to try and change Charmaine's mind.

Seeing that, Tristan took her hand and pulled her into his arms. “What's the matter?”

“I'm fine,” came Sophie's answer. She wasn't about to let unimportant people affect her mood. That was absolutely unnecessary.

“You don't look like you're fine,” Tristan replied. She seems to be in a bad mood.

“Willow is missing, and my mom thinks I did it,” Sophie revealed nonchalantly. “Tell me. Am I that free?”

“Oh, I see.” Tristan snorted. Charmaine is indeed a loathsome woman.

“Since she's not important, don't be angry at her. It's not worth it. Go take a shower. I'll give you a massage later,” he urged.

She had rehearsed for a long time and should be exhausted.

Sophie snuggled into the couch and didn't feel like moving. “I don't feel like taking a shower!”

Tristan's heart skipped a beat when he saw how adorable she looked.

“Be good. Take a shower and go to bed. Just ignore those nobodies,” he comforted her.

Meeting his affectionate gaze, Sophie couldn't bring herself to say no. She climbed up from her spot on the couch and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

Meanwhile, Yale was gazing at Charmaine fervently. “What did she say? Has she seen Willow?” he demanded.

No matter what, Willow was now Clayton's fiancee, so nothing could happen to her.

Charmaine shook her head.

“Why did I give birth to such a daughter? She's so rude! Did you know she hung up on me?” she complained.

Charmaine was filled with regret. I shouldn't have given birth to her in the first place.

“I told you not to give birth to her, but you insisted. It's useless to regret now,” Yale snapped. All she does is make life difficult for us.

Charmaine was frustrated. “What should we do now?” she asked worriedly.

Willow went missing all of a sudden, so they couldn't just act as if nothing had happened.

Something might happen to her out there.

“Should we call Clayton? After all, Willow is his fiancee, so he wouldn't ignore our plight,” Yale declared. Subsequently, he whipped his phone out to give Clayton a call.

However, the call did not get through.

“This is impossible. Why can't the call get through?” Yale blurted out in disbelief. “What's going on?”

He was utterly confused.

Hearing that, Charmaine demanded, “What? What happened?”

“I can't get through. Okay, that's enough. Stop worrying. It has been less than twenty-four hours since she went missing, so the police won't help even if we were to make a police report. Go to bed, and we'll see what happens tomorrow.”

He could head to Zales Corporation and ask for Clayton's help if nothing else worked.

The next day, Willow still didn't show up.

He couldn't help but ask, “Do you even like Willow?” He's acting so strangely. Why doesn't he seem to care?

“That's enough. I don't have time to entertain you,” Clayton declared. If Willow is of no use to me, she's better off missing.

With that said, Clayton left with his subordinates.

Yale tried to go after him but was stopped by the security guards.

“Hear that? Mr. Zales didn't even bother sparing your dignity. You should leave instead of making things difficult for us,” the security guard told Yale.

Yale stood underneath the scorching sun, not understanding what was going on.

Back in Tristan's office, Felix was helping Tristan deal with some matters.

“How is Willow doing there?” Tristan asked.

“Oh, how rare of you to show concern for someone else,” Felix joked. Weren't you the one who sent her there?

“I need you to head there today. Ask her to call her family and tell them she is traveling alone,” Tristan ordered. He hated it when outsiders disturbed Sophie.

“I don't think that's an easy feat. She never wanted to enter the psychiatric hospital in the first place. If I allow her to make the phone call, she will definitely rat us out,” Felix replied hesitantly.

Tristan was unbothered. “This is no big deal. Can't you handle it?”

“Okay, fine. I got it. I will handle it,” Felix promised. I'm fated to work my as* off. I have no other choice.

“Does Sophie know about this?” he asked.

“As of now, no. There's no need to tell her about it. She doesn't have to know that I'm teaching Willow a lesson,” came Tristan's answer.

“Okay. I know what to do.” Felix nodded. He doesn't want anyone to know, so I'll wipe off all traces of our doing.
