Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 58 Fake Invitation

Sophie had formed three years prior. When she first established it, she had written the program herself to strengthen the firewall.Ever since then, countless top hackers worldwide had tried to breach Wings of Light’s firewall because they wanted to know the organization’s secrets.However, no matter how many times they tried, no one had succeeded in doing so yet.Therefore, Sophie was very confident in the programming sequence she had written.After being heavily involved for a while, Sophie found Butterfly to take over her place as the leader of Wings of Light. After that, she would only involve herself occasionally.“By the way, have you been close with Tristan recently?” Upon hearing that Sophie would go over, Butterfly breathed a sigh of relief and went on to gossip. “Phantom, I know you like the thrill, but Tristan isn’t someone to mess with. I’m worried about your safety.” Due to Sophie’s tender age, the other members were quite protective of her.“I know.” In fact, Sophie had heard all about Tristan. “Don’t worry. I can take care of myself. I’m not afraid of Tristan.”Throughout the eighteen years of her life, Sophie had never been scared of anyone.“Oh, right! When Tristan was in Horington, a dozen mercenaries tried to kill him. I need you to help me find out who those people were,” Sophie uttered.“But there are a lot of people who want Tristan dead, no?”Needless to say, a lot of people wanted Tristan dead because Lombard Group’s existence posed a lot of problems for the others financially.“Phantom… Don’t fall for Tristan’s good looks, okay? He’s not right for you,” Butterfly warned. Phantom can get whatever she wants in life. She doesn’t need to get involved with Tristan.“You’re overthinking it,” Sophie answered.“Am I? Am I really overthinking it? I do wish that’s the case, then.”“All right, that’s enough. Find out about the mercenaries and get back to me.”“Okay. I’ll be as quick as possible.”Nothing in the world could hide from Wings of Light.“If that’s all, I’m going to hang up now.”“Remember to come over to the headquarters,” Butterfly reminded before hanging up. What a tough life I’m living! Ever since I took over Wings of Light from Phantom, I’ve been busting my chops to run it. Am I the most pitiful person on earth or what?After Sophie hung up the call, she started gaming on her phone.Tristan walked in and saw what she was doing. He then approached her and sat next to her to watch her play.Sophie only exited the game after she was done.“It’s about time. Let’s go,” Tristan said.“Mr. Tristan, is it okay if I don’t stick together with you?” The people who were attending the party were from the upper-class social circle. If she were to show up with Tristan, they would garner too much attention, and she preferred to keep a low profile.“What’s wrong? Do you not like being with me?” Tristan’s mood suddenly dampened.“Well, I don’t like the attention, so—”“You’re a star. You’ll attract attention wherever you go.”Sophie was rendered speechless.“Fine. Since you don’t want to be with me, do as you please then,” Tristan added.Sophie didn’t say anything in response. Is Mr. Tristan throwing a tantrum?Indeed, Tristan wasn’t happy. He had already shown her so much, and yet, she didn’t even want to be seen together with him in public.Sophie wasn’t experienced in coaxing others. Hence, she kept silent as well when Tristan was giving her the cold shoulder.Ysabelle’s birthday party was held on Diamond Cruise.By six-thirty in the evening, a lot of the guests were already seen boarding the cruise ship with their invitation cards in their hands.There were a bunch of reporters at the dock, and they were all trying to board the cruise ship because the public was very curious about the Lombard family. However, the security on the cruise ship was strict, and there
