Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 44 Feel Sorry For Her

that Sophie girl? I can’t let my daughter study in the same class with a piece of trash.”“Ma’am, how can you make such an impudent remark? As far as I can see, you’re worse than a piece of trash.”Felix couldn’t stand it any longer. Is this what Sophie has had to endure since she started studying at Jipsdale Premier High?“You—” Lenora’s mother, Matilda, was pissed off. Since Lenora always badmouthed Sophie, Matilda certainly believed her daughter. “This is not just my personal opinion, right?”“Indeed! Mr. Hayes, she’s not wrong. What kind of a place is Horington? How could the school accept a student rejected by Horington High and destroy our children’s future?”“That’s right. My kid is aiming to attend one of the best universities in the country! We spent so much to send our kids to Jipsdale Premier High not because we want to see a delinquent student.”“Ladies and gentlemen, Sophie is a well-behaved student. No one can ascertain if the rumors are true. Nonetheless, the truth is Sophie has done well recently.”“Mr. Hayes, we know you’re a good teacher and wish to protect your students. However, the news about what Sophie went through in Jipsdale is true. Even her parents find her embarrassing because of that.”Meanwhile, Tristan couldn’t help but sneer when he realized that the adults in their thirties and forties were so hostile to an eighteen-year-old girl.Moreover, he felt sorry for Sophie once he imagined how she had to endure the mental torment alone.If she had been beside him at that moment, he would have hugged her without hesitation.How old was Sophie when others accused her of debauchery five years ago?A thirteen or fourteen-year-old kid was criticized and even abandoned by her family in Horington.As Tristan recalled the look of determination in her gaze and how she endured everything, he couldn’t help but get emotional.“Felix, check the backgrounds of those who insulted Sophie. Have the lawyer sue them for slander!”Leaning back in the chair, Tristan still maintained his composure.However, he was infuriated deep down.Under normal circumstances, Tristan wouldn’t get angry, for he would ensure those who irritated him suffered hell on earth.Hence, it was his first time experiencing anger because of Sophie.“You have some nerves! Are you Sophie’s parent? Don’t you feel ashamed of yourself for having such a kid? Moreover, since many of us share the same opinion, can you sue all of us?” Matilda mocked Tristan, still unaware of who he was.“Ladies and gentlemen, please look at the monthly test results. Sophie ranks second in the whole grade. How could she affect your children’s studies?
