Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 18 Transfer Of Shares

saw Sophie outside the house too.“Who was that man just now?”Sophie could not be bothered with Willow. The moment the housekeeper heard the voices, she opened the door. Sophie walked in immediately.Seeing that Sophie was giving her cold shoulders, Willow was furious.“Sophie, what kind of attitude is that? I’m your older sister, and I don’t want you to get cheated on by others. Nowadays, there are many men who rent luxurious cars in an attempt to fool young girls. Don’t fall for it.”“Thank you for your concern, but I can take care of myself.” If that advice had come from someone else, Sophie might have believed them.Since it came from Willow, it meant nothing but a joke to her.Willow was the only person in the whole world who wished her ill.As the two sisters entered the house, they saw that Josiah was already downstairs.

It isn’t good for your health.”“Dad, I know you have spoiled her since she was young. But, this time, she has really made a mistake.”“So what? Yale, have you never ever done anything wrong before in your life?”Yale was dumbfounded.“Dad, don’t be upset. Grandpa loves Soph very much. That’s all,” said Willow thoughtfully.“Fine. Let’s eat.” There was nothing Yale could do when it came to his father.“Soph, come and sit next to me.” With that, Josiah immediately pulled Sophie to the seat next to him.Yale, Willow, and Charmaine also sat down.The family began to have their dinner in silence.Everyone was unhappy about something.
