Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 151 Cheap

heart race.Nevertheless, Tristan was completely uninterested in talking to Sophie’s sister.Still, Willow persisted despite his obvious indifference and ran toward him. She had dressed up to her nines that day, and she was sure that no man would reject her.“Since you’re here, why aren’t you going in with Sophie?” Willow deliberately asked. “Right, Sophie’s always been like this. She’s very wary of others. Maybe you don’t matter to her, and that’s why she didn’t ask you to come in. I don’t know if you’re aware of this or not, but she brought Mason home less than a month after meeting him five years ago. Oh, I’m sorry. I think I’ve run my mouth.”Willow was spilling the beans on purpose.Upon hearing her, Tristan drew his brows together.Is she trying to drive a wedge between us? Isn’t that a cheap trick?“Sorry, but I don’t know who you are. Can you move aside now?”Whether or not he and Sophie were getting along was none of an outsider’s business.Tristan’s straightforward response made Willow grimace.After biting her lip, she decided to throw caution to the wind and uttered, “I’m just doing this for your sake. There are plenty of men around Sophie. I’m hoping that you won’t end up as one of her playthings.”At that, Tristan narrowed his eyes at her. That look from him sent chills down her spine.“I don’t want to hear you talk about Sophie from now on. If I hear this again, don’t blame me for making you pay.”Willow never expected that the man would not heed a single word from her despite how she had to muster her courage to tell him those things.“I know better than you who Sophie is. A girl like you is asking to be taught a lesson,” Tristan added.By then, all the colors had drained from Willow’s face.“This is just for your sake…” Willow tried to protest, but Tristan gave her no chance to do so as he went into his car.Overwhelmed with rage, she tightened her fists.What spell did Sophie cast on this man to make him so protective of her? Why?Jealousy was an emotion that could drive anyone mad.When Willow thought about the recent incidents that she had gone through, she felt the overwhelming urge to skin Sophie alive.After Tristan entered his car, he did not leave immediately; he intended to wait for Sophie in the car.When he saw Willow still standing rooted to her spot and fuming, he sneered.Disgusting.Tristan was no fool. The moment Willow walked over, he knew what she was about to do.When Charmaine saw Sophie return, she immediately paused her work and asked in concern, “You’re free today? Are you here to visit your grandpa?”Sophie did not even feel like responding to Charmaine’s feigned concern.“I’m going up to see Grandpa,” was all Sophie said before heading to the backyard.After all, she knew that Josiah was in the middle of tending to his garden at that moment.“This girl is so rude. Does she really think that she owns Tanner Group now?” Charmaine simply could not bring herself to like this daughter of hers.“Mrs. Tanner, Ms. Sophie is pushing her luck. Ms. Willow is still the more obedient and sensible one.”“That’s right. Willa’s more sensible and sweet. It’s genuinely a pity that Mason is in this state now. I wonder if he’ll ever recover.” Every time Charmaine thought about Mason’s leg, she would feel troubled.If Mason could no longer walk, Willow would have a hard life, and Charmaine could not bear to let her suffer.After all, Willow was the daughter she had doted on since young.“Mrs. Tanner, Ms. Willow is such an outstanding person, so there isn’t a need for her to stick to the Laird family. I heard from a relative that the best families in Jipsdale right now are the four major families.“The four major families.” Charmaine knew that those four families were the best choices, but unfortunately, the Tanners had nothing to do with them at all.“Mrs. Tanner, since Ms. Willow is such a wonderful person, if she can get a chance to meet anyone from the four major families, she would be able to…”Charmaine was starting to grow
