Chapter 734 Be Happy
Sophie stared at Charmaine. She's really kind to Willow, and she only shows her maternal love to Willow.
Ysabelle, who came looking for Sophie, was heartbroken when she heard Charmaine's words. How terrible! How dare she utter such nonsense to Sophie on such a wonderful day!
Ysabelle rushed forward and shielded Sophie.
“You care about Willow because she's your daughter. But isn't Sophie your daughter, too? Willow hired a hitman! How is it that Sophie's the one at fault now?”
Ysabelle was livid.
“This is a family matter. It has nothing to do with you. Right now, I just want to talk to Sophie. Can you scoot?” Of course, Charmaine knew who Ysabelle was. She just could not be bothered to think about it at that moment.
“Family matter? Sophie's going to be a member of the Lombard family in the future. Naturally, her matters are our family's matters. There's no reason for me not to get involved. Sophie, go to Uncle Tristan. I'll stay here and listen to what she has to say.”
Sophie patted Ysabelle on the shoulder. “I'm fine. Let's go. It's time to eat.” That day, Yale had invited a few chefs to prepare a meal at home.
The meal should be ready soon.
Since it was her engagement day, she naturally had to have a meal at home.
“All right! Let's go out together. I don't want to see anyone bully you.” Ysabelle would not let anyone bully Sophie, not even the latter's mother.
“Okay!”
Ysabelle's words brought a smile to Sophie's face.
Thanks to Tristan, she had come to know his family, who treated her well.
Charmaine watched them leave while sulking.
Alas, no one cared about her feelings.
Moments later, Cecelia arrived. She had come directly from the set. When she heard Sophie was getting engaged, she applied for a day's leave to rush back for the meal and witness Sophie's beautiful moment.
Cecelia immediately pulled Sophie into her arms.
“Sophie, I never expected you'd be the first to get married.” The two often talked about it before Sophie went to Horington.
At that time, they had wondered who their prince charming would be.
However, many things happened after that.
Thankfully, Sophie still found her partner. That was all that mattered to Cecelia.
The thought of it made her teary.
“I'm fine, Cecelia. Perhaps everything that happened in the past was preparing me for this.”
It's preparing me to meet Tristan with a better version of myself.
“You're right. Anyway, the fact that you're happy is all that matters. Truth is, I really admire you. Tristan looks like a cold person. Then again, it doesn't matter. What matters most is that he treats you well.”
To Cecelia, a man who treated everyone warmly was a jerk. She was relieved that Tristan was someone who only treated Sophie warmly.
The Wheelers, too, hurried over when they finished their work. On the way there, Sunny could not help but worry about Mark.
The person Mark liked was getting married, but he was not the groom. Sunny was afraid Mark would be upset.
“Mark, why don't you skip the event today? You're tired, anyway. You should get some rest at home.”
Mark shook his head.
“Sunny, how can I miss such an important day?” Even if Sophie was not getting married to him, he still needed to go over and give her his blessing.
He was not someone who would evade situations.
Moreover, he would regret it if he did not go.
“Are you sure you're all right?” Sunny was the closest to Mark. Naturally, he was the one most worried about him.
“Yeah, I'm all right. All that matters is that she's happy. I'll never forgive Tristan if he hurts her.”
Sophie was the woman he cherished a lot.
Unfortunately, she chose Tristan, so he could only remain as her friend.
When Ysabelle heard Mark and the others had arrived, she quickly went out to welcome them. Of course, Felix followed behind her.
The moment Ysabelle saw Mark and his members, she ran up to them excitedly.
“Mark! You guys made it! I thought you wouldn't be able to come today,” said Ysabelle. Mark and the others had not been back to the country because they had an event abroad.
“It's Sophie's big day today. Of course, we have to come back.” They even prepared gifts for Sophie and wanted to give them to her in person.
“Let's head in. The meal's starting.” Although Mark and the others had missed the engagement ceremony, they made it for the meal.
“Okay!”
Sunny stayed with Mark the entire time for fear the latter would be sad.
However, Mark was calm the entire time.
There was even a smile on his face.
Sadly, only he knew how heartbroken he felt.
“Sophie, this is my engagement gift for you. I hope you'll be happy in the future. Make sure you treat her well, Tristan. I won't forgive you if you don't.”
No matter how powerful Tristan was, Mark would never forgive him if he mistreated Sophie.
Hearing that, Tristan accepted the gift on Sophie's behalf.
“Don't worry. I won't give you the chance to do so. She's the woman I cherish the most. I'll never hurt her.”
“Thank you, Mark.”
That was all Sophie could say now that things had come to this. She did not know what else she could say.
“Can I give you a hug?” asked Mark. At that moment, he felt as if something had collapsed in his heart.
“Sure.”
Mark extended his arms, and Sophie went over to hug him.
“Mark, you'll definitely find someone who'll love you,” said Sophie. Mark is a great person. He'll definitely meet the right girl. It's just a matter of time, or maybe their fate hasn't arrived yet.
Mark smiled.
Really? I've given all my love to Sophie. Will I ever meet another person I like in this lifetime? I bet it's going to be difficult.
Mark hugged her for one whole minute before reluctantly letting her go. “There, there. Don't worry about me. The Wheelers is currently the hottest rock band. I'll pour all my focus on my career.”
Since he could not get the girl he liked, he might as well focus on work instead.
After all, she had sacrificed a lot for his career.
“Hey, don't be like this. Sure, you have to focus on work, but relationships need time to build,” said Sophie. He can't possibly grow old alone.
“Sophie, you have to be happy.”
As soon as Mark said that, his eyes reddened. He did not want that to happen, but sometimes feelings are hard to control. It was something he could do nothing about.
Seeing that, Sunny and the other three members walked over and hugged Mark and Sophie.
