Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 108 Is Someone On Her Tail

doing experiments together quite often,” said Sophie in a casual manner as she did not think too much of that call from Bailey.“Is he interested in you?” Tristan had not realized how much his words reeked of envy.Sophie’s brows perked up.“I wouldn’t know that.” Sophie was never one to place too much attention on people who were not important to her.That yielded no response from the flabbergasted Tristan, who thought he might be contending with one rival too many.The car arrived at Wisteria Apartments, but Tristan did not see her upstairs as he had other matters that needed his attention.After getting in, Sophie changed out of her uniform into a black hoodie and a pair of light blue jeans before grabbing a ride down to Wings of Light.Wings of Light was situated along the most bustling street in Jipsdale. Real estate was at a premium here, but Wings of Light itself occupied a standalone building consisting of eight floors. Though shabby on the exterior, stepping inside would reveal that there was more to it than meets the eye.Having not been around for some time, she was refused entry by the elderly gentleman guarding the entrance because he did not recognize her.“Have you lost your way, lass? Go on and turn around. This place is for employees only!”“Actually, I’m looking for Neveah, sir.” Wings of Light did not have as many staff on board in its infancy, and it was only after Butterfly took the reins that they started to hire more support personnel. That woman was never one to mistreat herself. The people she often brought on board, though, tend to be much more advanced in age, giving the place an appearance of a shelter for elderly folk from the outside. In spite of that, none of them were ordinary in any regard.“Ms. Sekelsky, eh? Hang on. Let me make a call.” The gentleman then phoned Butterfly.From his description, Butterfly was able to infer that it was Sophie because very few could boast of the latter’s bewitching looks.Butterfly came down personally to receive her. With the other members kept occupied these past few days, only she remained stationed in Wings of Light.“Finally. Hadn’t you promised me before? Took you a really long time to get here, it did,” Butterfly could not help but gripe. “Come on then, let’s head on up!”An eight-story building would not usually come with an elevator, so Butterfly had one specially retrofitted when she first bought the place. She took Sophie up to the eighth floor where the interiors were rather impressively done.“I’ve reserved an office for you! Would you like to go check it out and see whether it is to your liking?” Butterfly then ushered her toward the furthermost office.That got Sophie’s eyebrow raised. She had been pretty much hands-off since handing the keys to Wings of Light over to Butterfly, and had not expected the latter to have an office renovated for her.Pushing past the door, Butterfly led Sophie inside a space with a rather indie vibe before she turned to the latter in anticipation.“So, how do you find it? Do you like it? If you do, would you mind dropping in more often whenever you are free? It could get a little lonely being here by myself sometimes!”“It’s all right, I guess!” It was not hard to tell that Butterfly had invested quite a bit into fixing up the place, but she still preferred to answer to the beckoning of freedom. “Isn’t Wings of Light doing very well at the moment? I think you’re well suited to run things here, so why don’t you just continue
