Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 117 His Childishness

all night and finally alighted his vehicle after seeing Sophie appear at the entrance to the building early the next morning.“Soph, why didn’t you pick up? Can’t we stay in contact as regular friends?”Having to see him first thing in the morning put Sophie in a bad mood.“I don’t think we can even be friends at this point, so drop it. You have no right to talk to me in that accusing tone.”Just as the woman was about to leave, Mason hastily grabbed her by the wrist.“I’ve already broken up with Willow. Let’s stop harping over what happened five years ago, okay? Can we just start over?” Mason asked pleadingly.He was so helpless before her and just couldn’t forget her even after five years had passed.Sophie was usually grumpy in the morning, and hearing this man’s nonsense really made 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!

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
