Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 51 Who Are You Really

the criminal hide anymore, all Sophie needed was a minute before she found him.A red dot appeared on the screen.“You’re amazing, Ms. Tanner!” Danny could not help but cry out.“You can go apprehend him now.”“Thank you. I’ll transfer you the monetary reward for this.”“Okay,” was all Sophie said.Eustace then hurried away to arrest the criminal. As the criminal had a bomb on him, he also brought men from the bomb squad.“Ms. Tanner, you’re fantastic! Can I ask you some questions?”“Sorry, but I have some matters to attend to.”With that, Sophie stood up to leave.“Danny, who is she? She looks young!”“Yeah, she’s only eighteen. Don’t feel jealous, though. Some are just born a prodigy.” Some people were gifted individuals who could do anything with ease. On the other hand, some could never become geniuses no matter how hard they tried. Nevertheless, all one needed to do was to do their best.Just as Sophie stepped out of the black car, Tristan called.“Where are you? I’m coming to pick you up.”She doesn’t listen to anyone at all. I told her to rest at home because she’s sick, but she’s running everywhere!“I’m at Monarch Mall,” Sophie replied.After the call ended, she stayed in her spot and waited for him.However, no one expected the criminal to jump off the building.Many people were entering and leaving Monarch Mall at that time, so when they saw a man falling to his death from the building, they screamed.Eustace immediately asked his men to seal off the place.“Hurry up! He still has a bomb on him that hasn’t been defused!”The men from the bomb squad rushed over. However, it was their first time seeing such a complicated bomb design, and for a moment, they had no idea what to do.“Evacuate the people,” Eustace promptly ordered.He then walked over to Sophie.“Ms. Tanner, please leave quickly. The bomb will go off at any time.”They haven’t dismantled the bomb even after such a long time?“Captain Sheppard, seems like your men aren’t efficient at all!”They can’t track down the guy, and they don’t even know how to defuse the bomb. The government’s wasting their money on them by giving them such high pay!“The other party’s a Ph.D. student of the prestigious Athene University. He’s very smart.”“I never thought that the famous Captain Sheppard would be scrambling for excuses.”At that, Sophie handed him the bag in her hands.“Hold this for me. This costs ten million, so don’t lose it.”That was all she said before walking toward the bomb, about to defuse it.Eustace grabbed her.“What are you doing? Don’t you know how dangerous this is?”Sophie pulled her hand away from his.“Don’t worry. I won’t haunt you if I die.”At that, Eustace handed the bag to his subordinate before entering the scene with Sophie.“Captain Sheppard, leave now! There’s only a minute left!”The men from the bomb squad had decided to retreat from the scene. After all, the people had all been evacuated, and what they prioritized most was the safety of the people.“Move aside.”“Young lady, this is too dangerous! You need to run, now!”Sophie did not want to waste any more breath on him, so she shoved him aside and crouched down to take a glance at the bomb. Then, she
