Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 128 Green With Envy

us? Spit it out. Where did you and my uncle go?”Hearing that, Winter likewise perked up her ears to catch their answer.“Nowhere.”Truth be told, Sophie was puzzled herself. Tristan’s driving skills were superb, but he drove exceptionally slow that day.Unbeknownst to them, the man did it on purpose. He simply wanted to spend more time with her.Glasses abounded on the table in the karaoke bar. Many of them were filled with wine.“Let’s drink to our heart’s content today!” Felix declared domineeringly. Everyone is happy today, so it doesn’t matter even if we imbibe a bit more.Ysabelle wasn’t interested in drinking. She went over to the screen and selected a few songs.Then, she asked Sophie, “Is there any song you’d like to sing, Soph? We can sing together.”However, Sophie shook her head in demurral. “You go ahead. I’ll just listen as you sing.”“No way, Soph! You’ve got to sing when you’re at the karaoke bar! Besides, I noticed that you were truly in sync with Mark back then. As such, your singing must be really melodious!”“Hear, hear! Sophie’s voice is sweet in the first place, so her singing must be music to the ears!” Felix couldn’t help echoing. No matter what Ysabelle said, he agreed with it all.“I really am sorry, Mr. Tristan.” Holding a glass of wine in hand, Winter downed it in a single go before Tristan.Tristan picked up a glass of whiskey and took a sip without saying anything.Winter didn’t dare speak further, so she could only shrink back and sit down beside Charles.“All right, don’t harbor any more inappropriate thoughts. Mr. Tristan isn’t someone you can dream about.”All Charles could do was comfort her. She isn’t malicious in nature. She merely loves him too much.Nevertheless, Winter’s gaze remained fixated on Tristan.He’s too good to Sophie, meticulous to a fault. I’ve never imagined that he would treat someone this tenderly.“Let’s sing together, Soph!” Ysabelle handed the microphone to Sophie.Sophie took the microphone, but she placed it on the table in front of her.“You go ahead. I don’t like to sing.”“Okay, then. In that case, I’ll be singing! Just tell Felix if you need anything.”Ysabelle’s singing was really incredible. Her voice was sweet, so it was perfect for her to sing such gentle love songs.She was exceedingly focused when she sang, rendering her very much attractive. Felix sat in the corner and gazed at her. She was all he saw.After finishing one song, Ysabelle continued singing another song. This time, it was an extremely popular Ustranasion song recently. Still, it suited her perfectly.Winter got up and went over to the screen. Selecting a song, she shifted it to the top.When Ysabelle was done singing, it would be that song of hers.She stood there leaning against the wall. From that angle, she could perceive all of Tristan’s reactions.It was a song about a confession of love, of which the lyrics spoke of the girl’s feelings and her love for the man. The astringent feeling from it would make one feel anguished.It was clear as day that she was directing that song to Tristan. Regretfully, she was the only one who felt touched after the entire song.In the meantime, Tristan had already sat down beside Sophie. The two of them merely sat there without exchanging a word. However, they looked incredibly harmonious.Sophie lifted her hand and picked up a glass of whiskey.Seeing that, Tristan promptly grabbed her hand. He brought it before him and drank the whiskey in her glass as he maneuvered her hand.“Drink at home if you want to drink. Don’t drink in front of them.” He wasn’t willing to allow Charles and the others to see her sloshed.Sophie arched a brow. Well, well, well… He’s really possessive.By then, Winter had finished singing. Alas, Tristan never once paid her any mind.She felt devastated, but she couldn’t do anything about it.All she could do was sit in the corner as though she didn’t exist.Just then, Tristan selected a song.It was an Ustranasion duet song. It wasn’t a very popular song, but he really liked it a lot.Upon seeing that her uncle was truly going to sing, Ysabelle quickly handed him two microphones.“Here, Uncle Tristan.” She wore a docile expression and acted cute.Taking the two microphones, Tristan handed one of them to Sophie.Sophie quirked a brow.“Let’s sing together.” His voice was remarkably deep, very much seductive as it drifted into her ears.In response, Sophie nodded in agreement. All right! Since he’s willing to accompany me here, singing a song with him is perfectly within reason.Charles, Sean, and Felix grew up with Tristan, but even they had never heard the man sing.Of course, Winter went green with envy.Argh! The difference is too vast. I sang to him, confessing my love, but he
