Changing only for her (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 528

“What charity dinner is that? Why haven't I heard you mention it?”

“I didn't want to participate in the event previously, but my father requested my presence, so I have no choice but to go.”

His father was most likely trying to arrange a blind date for him.

Tristan had had enough of William's behavior. The latter was aware that his son had a girlfriend, yet he was still arranging blind dates for him. Tristan wasn't planning on going along with his father's scheme.

“In that case, I'll certainly accompany you to attend the event.” Sophie was unfazed about joining a charity dinner.

“I knew you would keep me company. I've already prepared your outfit, so you just need to get some makeup done later. But let's go and have a light meal first.” Although food would usually be served at a charity dinner, one could never eat peacefully on such occasions. “Also, no matter what happens at the charity dinner, you mustn't get angry, okay?”

“Do you already know what will happen?” Sophie found his statement baffling because he was implying he had already foreseen what would happen even before they departed to the event venue.

“My dad may not be pleased with you, but the problem lies with him, not you.”

“So what? How is this matter related to him or the charity dinner tonight?”

“He arranged a blind date for me at the charity dinner tonight.”

“A blind date?”

Truth be told, Sophie was slightly taken aback when she heard Tristan mention he would be going on a blind date.

“It seems that your dad really doesn't like me.” Otherwise, why would he ask his son to go on blind dates even after knowing Tristan has a girlfriend?

“Are you mad? Didn't I tell you his opinion is of little significance? What matters is my stance. You are the only woman who can be my wife in this life. No one else can take the spot.”

Tristan honestly didn't wish for her to face those situations, but his father was committed to doing things others could never accept.

This time, Tristan wanted to let everyone in Jipsdale know that Sophie was his girlfriend.

He would only dedicate his love to Sophie and no one else, so the others should give up on trying to win his affection.

“Is it appropriate for you to bring me along to your blind date? Doing this may cause your dad to dislike me even more.”

“Didn't I tell you his opinion is of little significance? What matters is I love you.” Have I not repeated this many times? We shouldn't care about others' opinions. “Are you angry right now?” Tristan asked carefully, fearing Sophie might genuinely be furious.

Taking in his cautious demeanor, Sophie couldn't help but feel her heart ache.

“Actually, you don't have to mind me. I'm fine. Don't worry. Regardless of why your dad is not fond of me, I'll work hard to turn the situation around because I don't want to see you getting caught in a tight spot.”

She had never been one to care about others' views, but because William was Tristan's father, she decided to try to change the current circumstances.

He shook his head. She doesn't need to change a thing.

“This is something I want to do.”

After finding out her grandfather had arranged for Tristan to go on a blind date, Ysabelle was dissatisfied.

“Aunt Sarah, my grandpa is really getting old, isn't he? How can he do something as despicable as this?”

Ysabelle had never known William to be so stubborn in the past.

“Stop talking nonsense. Your grandpa will be sad if he hears you.”

Sarah felt extremely helpless as well.

“Aunt Sarah, will you attend the charity dinner too? Why don't we go together so that we can support Sophie?” How can we allow Sophie to participate in such a grand occasion on her own? What if someone bullies her?

“Why are you going? Don't worry. Sophie can handle this. You must have faith in her. If you go now, I'm afraid your grandpa won't be happy.”

William had made the arrangements.

If they went there to support Sophie, he wouldn't be pleased and would instead place the blame on Sophie. Their effort would result in a worse loss.

“We're just going there to take a look, not to stir a commotion. I'm just afraid someone will bully Sophie. You're also aware of how troublesome Uncle Tristan's blind date partner, the lady from the Whitley family, can be!”

That woman was not to be taken lightly.

“Frankly speaking, my grandpa is really getting old. I can't believe he wants her to date my uncle!”

The Whitley family's daughter was undoubtedly competent as she successfully managed her family's company with excellence.

However, Ysabelle figured Tristan needed to be with a woman he was genuinely fond of instead of a career lady since he was more than capable of handling a company well on his own.

“Aunt Sarah, let's go together. You also don't want to see others bully Sophie, right?”

Ysabelle acted coy.

She was adamant about tagging along.

“Fine. If you don't want to bring me with you, I'll ask Felix. I'm going by hook or by crook.”

Sarah could do nothing about Ysabelle.

“Okay. I'll bring you with me.”

That night's charity dinner took place at the Whitley family's hotel, and all the attendees were either affluent or influential. After the banquet, a charity auction would be held.

That was the typical behavior of wealthy people. After they amassed a certain level of riches, they would wish to garner a good image.

Under normal circumstances, men were tasked with earning money while women busied themselves with hosting charity dinners and similar events.

This time, the organizer was the Whitley family's daughter, Jennifer Whitley.

Jennifer was filled with anticipation after knowing her father had arranged a blind date for her with Tristan. She was the family's only daughter.

In recent years, she had been helping her father to manage the family's business and had done a splendid job, earning her the reputation of an iron lady.

She had fancied Tristan since she was in high school. She even argued with Winter after knowing the latter was also interested in Tristan.

Jennifer was thrilled when she learned that Winter had been banished to Alendor by Tristan afterward.

Winter has always thought too highly of herself, but she was still exiled to Alendor in the end. Jennifer reckoned Winter deserved that outcome because of her incompetence.

After she waited for so long, Williams finally contacted her father and arranged for her to go on a blind date with Tristan.

She stood by at the entrance, hoping to meet Tristan sooner, even before the charity dinner began.

Sarah and Ysabelle saw Jennifer standing at the door right after they got out of the vehicle. The latter was dressed in a party dress, enhancing her feminine side and dampening her usual career-woman vibe.

Jennifer assumed every man would yearn to be with gentle, sweet-tempered women.

Since she liked Tristan and was finally getting to meet with him that day, she needed to put in more effort to preen herself.

“Look at how eager she seems. Don't tell me she genuinely believes Uncle Tristan is interested in her,” Ysabelle uttered straightforwardly.

In her opinion, Tristan belonged only to Sophie, and anyone who dared to meddle in their relationship would be her enemy.

“Hush!”

Sarah felt Ysabelle's behavior was inappropriate because the Whitley family was the host of that night's charity dinner.

Ysabelle stuck out her tongue in response. At that moment, Tristan's car arrived. After his car door was opened, he got out of the vehicle.
