Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 8 I Am Here For You

Rhett murmured helplessly.“Mr. Quillen, neither of them committed any major mistakes. How could you expel them just like this?” Derrick felt that it was too hasty a decision. He held himself responsible for every single student in the class, so he didn’t harbor any prejudice against Sophie despite knowing that her grades were atrocious.“This matter is decided, Mr. Hayes. Mrs. Zales, I heard that your company are recently—”“Mr. Quillen is really unreasonable!” Even Ysabelle, who was as timid as a mouse, couldn’t help getting mad by then. She then continued, “Don’t worry, Sophie. I’ve already given my uncle a call. He’s very powerful!”At that, Sophie arched a brow. Did I say that I’m afraid? It’s merely Jipsdale Premier High. A single phone call from me determines who’s expelled or dismissed.“Who do you want to expel? Mr. Quillen, I think there’s no need for you to be at this school anymore.” When Felix heard at the door that Rhett wanted to expel Ysabelle, his temper spiked.Right after saying that, he pushed open the door and allowed Tristan to enter before him.Tristan didn’t expect to see Sophie there though he knew that she was also a student at Jipsdale Premier High and was planning to go and visit her later.“Who are you both?” Rhett had never met Tristan and Felix. But from their auras, he knew that they weren’t easy prey.“What a coincidence!” Felix was likewise surprised to see Sophie there.Seeing the two of them, Sophie couldn’t help frowning. Why am I bumping into them everywhere?“That isn’t important.

What can you do when Mr. Quillen is determined to expel them?” Selena hadn’t had any opportunity to have contact with people from Tristan’s circle, so she didn’t recognize the man before her. “Just expel them both, Mr. Quillen! Zales Corporation will handle it if there’s any problem!”“Zales Corporation?” Tristan spoke at long last. “Is Zales Corporation very powerful, Felix?”“No idea. What kind of business is Zales Corporation involved in?” Felix really couldn’t recall any company known as Zales Corporation right then.“Did you see that, Mr. Quillen? They don’t even know of Zales Corporation, yet they’re putting on airs here!” Selena threw a contemptuous look at them.“Why, is Zales Corporation all that mighty?” Felix countered.“Do you believe I can make it so that you two are dead meat with a single phone call?” Selena grew all the smugger. They’re afraid now, huh?“Honestly speaking, I’m really a touch scared now. I’ve still got my entire family to support, so what am I to do if I don’t have a job?” Felix fretted sarcastically.Selena was too confident in Zales Corporation, and her sense of triumph soared after she heard that.“So, what’s your choice? If the two of you are willing to drop to your knees and apologize to me now, I can still spare you both.”“What?” Hah! She’s walking all over us! Just because I
