Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 69 You Love A Crowd

before her voice trailed off. She was worried that Tristan might leave, but after seeing his expression, she decided to hold her tongue and walk to their private room.The next second, Tristan marched to Sophie and sat next to her. Like her, his long legs were just as alluring.Having detected movement behind her, Sophie turned around and immediately came face to face with Tristan.“Mr. Tristan, have you installed a tracking device on me?” she mused with a raised eyebrow.“Thanks for reminding me. I really should do that,” Tristan answered. It’s her fault for always playing with danger and making people worry.Instead of answering him, Sophie decided to change the topic.“Why are you here?”“It’s for Winter’s celebration party. We’re in the same private room as last time. Are you alone?”“Yes, I am,” Sophie replied before glancing at Letitia.From the looks of it, I guess she has chosen to sink into the depths of depravity. I’ll have to find some other time to negotiate with her. Letitia is the key to saving Transfix Cosmetics, but I know it won’t be easy to get the truth from her.“Join me then!”“It’s okay. I’m leaving in a bit. Besides, I’m not familiar with Ms. Quigley. I don’t think it’d be nice to crash the party,” Sophie explained. More importantly, I know Winter’s not going to like me.“It’s fine. We’ll only stay for a while, and I’ll send you home.”“All right, then!”As soon as Sophie got up, her long, slender legs stood out even more.Alas, the men with Letitia noticed that and quickly made their way toward her.After all, how could they let a perfect prey slip away?The lustful man from before whipped out a wad of cash from his bag and slammed it on the table. “Well? Is this enough?”Sophie instinctively glanced at Tristan, but before she could say anything else, the man shouted, “Why are you looking at him? I have all the money in the world, and if you don’t think this is enough, I’ll give you more!”With that, he tossed another thick wad of cash onto the table.“Hey, missy, I really like you. As long as you leave with me tonight, I’ll give you any amount of money that you desire.”Winter, who had overheard the conversation, couldn’t help snickering.Oh, my. I wonder how Mr. Tristan would feel after witnessing that. Sophie is such a fool! Doesn’t she know she’s digging her own grave? Once again, this proves I’m the only one worthy of being with Tristan!Sophie suddenly burst out laughing. What’s wrong with this guy? Doesn’t he know he’s playing with fire?“Is it still not enough? Fine. I have more!” the man thundered as he slapped another hundred thousand in cold, hard cash on the table.“Wait a minute. You are—”“Yes, I’m Trevor Gardner! You might not have heard of me, but I’m sure you know my father, Brayden Gardner!”“Brayden Gardner? Oh, so you’re his son,” Tristan said coldly with a glint in his eyes.“That’s right! Look, missy, even he knows who my father is! Why don’t you be my girlfriend? I’m serious about it!” Trevor exclaimed as he grinned from ear to ear.“You want me to be your girlfriend?”“Yes. What do you think? Leave with me tonight!”Alas, Trevor still had no idea who he had just offended.“Wait a minute,” Sophie muttered before taking her phone out to make a call.As soon as the call got through, she immediately rattled off the address of Nocturnal. “That’s the bar I’m in. Bring a few of your kind over here right now.”Then, she hung up the phone.“Wow, so you love a crowd! That’s no problem. I know many people who would be happy to join us!” Trevor said with a lewd smile. “I see we’re the same kind!”By then, Sophie could no longer be bothered to answer him.Tristan, though, couldn’t help but chime in, “You’re courting disaster.”How dare he perv on my love!“Why are you so angry? Calm down. If you like, we can rope you in too. You’re quite a looker yourself,” Trevor uttered as he looked Tristan up and down. Honestly, I wouldn’t mind trying it out with a man for once.Unable to hold it in any longer, Sophie burst out laughing.“Do you know who he is?” she asked amid guffaws. I got to hand it to him for even thinking about
