Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 117 His Childishness

her seethe that she tackled him to the ground.“I told you not to tell me about your disgusting love affairs with Willow. I’m not interested. You can deal with whatever happens between you guys on your own. Why bother coming to me?”Just like Mason, Tristan naturally hadn’t left since last night either.Seeing what was happening, the latter broke into a genuine smile while inside his car.That’s just like her. She’s always so full of energy.Mason got back on his feet.“Are you still mad at me, Soph? I admit I was wrong for not taking your side five years ago.”“Mad at you? I have no need to feel that way. Don’t assume everyone has as much free time on their hands as you do! I have plenty of other things to worry about, so leave me alone.”Seeing there was no way to get through to her, Mason figured he would make better progress with his actions.But at that moment, Sophie noticed Tristan standing behind Mason and called out, “Are you done watching? Let’s go get breakfast.”Tristan stopped smiling.“Sure.” He was clearly in a good mood today and wouldn’t get upset no matter what Sophie said. Seeing her torment his rival in love like this made him feel as if he was on cloud nine.Mason quickly went after them.“Who is he, Sophie? Do you know who this guy is?” he asked, not wanting to give up.“Who he is has nothing to do with you,” Sophie retorted. “Just watch yourself and make sure Willow doesn’t cause me any trouble.”She then took Tristan to her favorite place to get breakfast pies.The woman ordered two pies and gave one to him.“Here. It’s really good.” She had discovered this dish by chance.Costing only five each, it was filling and tasted unbelievable.Tristan took the pie from her and sat on a chair placed on the sidewalk.He then picked up the disposable cutlery and began to eat next to her.Both of them were especially good-looking that despite only sitting there and enjoying some breakfast pies, they slowly attracted the gazes of many passersby.“Isn’t that Sophie Tanner? How did she land herself such a hot guy?”“I wonder too. He’s so handsome. He looks like a prince who walked out of a TV screen. Everything about him seems so noble.”“Knock it off. What kind of prince would eat a breakfast pie at the side of a road like that?”“You’re right, but I love how he looks.”“Oh, please. Anyone who hangs around with Sophie has to be just as trashy as she is.”A man who had been listening in all the while couldn’t help but chime in, “You’re all clearly jealous. Every guy Sophie hangs out with always looks exceptional.” Sophie didn’t have much of a good reputation, but there was no denying how stunning she looked.Tristan could naturally hear the conversation too.Having finished his breakfast pie, he threw the disposable box and cutlery into the trash can nearby.Then, seeing him stare at her the whole time, Sophie gave him the rest of her pie.“Was it not enough for you? I’ll buy you a bigger one next time.”Tristan didn’t know how to respond.He was actually full, but nevertheless, he took her remaining food and finished it.“Now that we’ve had breakfast, I think it’s time you head back.” She still had a lot to deal with at school. Today is not a good day for me.“Okay. Remember, you can call me if there’s anything you can’t handle on your own. I’ll be right there no matter what it is.”Since she didn’t want him to interfere with her affairs, he decided to let her have her freedom. But if the end result wasn’t something he wanted, he would step in without fail.“Okay,” Sophie answered frostily.Tristan didn’t know what to do with her.He felt slightly better after caressing her hair and leaving it in a mess.Sophie stared at the man in frustration. It was her first time seeing such a childish side of him.“Go on. I’ll leave after watching you enter.”The young woman walked past him.Ultimately, he couldn’t resist grabbing onto her arm and pulling her into a hug.He then kissed her on the forehead.Sophie was furious, but seeing her in that state made Tristan happy.She was always so cold toward everyone, like a robot. That was why the man always wanted to aggravate her. Watching her grow infuriated made him feel as if he was different from everyone else.Mason had been following them the whole time, and he found himself unable to breathe at the sight of the way they interacted with one another.She actually let him kiss her?He was so envious that he nearly went mad.When Sophie arrived at the classroom, all the students stared at her gloatingly.However, the young woman paid no attention to those jealous eyes.Not long after, the principal’s secretary dropped by. “Sophie Tanner, Mr. Langston wants to see you,” he announced, sounding much more amicable than before.The girls who heard that began
