Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 172 Are You Jealous Of Me

give Willow special treatment?Charmaine’s doubt struck a nerve with Willow.“Mom, what’s that supposed to mean? Am I not worthy of someone’s love?” How can she think that of me?Charmaine held Willow’s hand gently and comforted her, “Willa, that’s not what I meant. I’m just worried about you due to Clayton’s bad reputation.”I don’t doubt the influence of the Zales family in Jipsdale, but Clayton is an infamous playboy who is surrounded by girls everywhere he goes. Thus, are his feelings for Willow true?“I know everyone has a bad impression of him, but it doesn’t matter, for I’ll be the one whom he settles down with.” Willow knew she had no control over the past. All that mattered was that he would change for the better once both of them were together.“All right now, you should go. If you have time, get yourself some new clothes. You don’t want to be outshone by the girls who are throwing themselves at Clayton.” Charmaine had barely spoken when she handed Willow a card.“There’s five hundred thousand in here. Buy whatever you fancy. If there’s a need, get Clayton a present too.”Willow took the card gleefully.When she was together with Mason, her mother didn’t pay much attention to her.In contrast to then, Charmaine had now given her a card with five hundred thousand inside.“That’s all, run along now.

Deep down, she prayed that her daughter would succeed this time.Given what happened to Mason, she no longer has any chance with him.In fact, Constance had even given Charmaine a call. It was just that the latter didn’t dare pick up.Now that Willow had a new target, Charmaine stopped planning for her and Mason to get back together even if his leg recovered.Upon returning to the ward, Charmaine saw Sophie chatting with Josiah, who looked to have recovered a lot.“Dad, Willa came to see you just now. Since you were sleeping, I took the liberty to tell her to leave.”Worried that Josiah’s resentment for Willow would grow, Charmaine quickly made an excuse on the latter’s behalf.“As the university entrance exam is approaching, you had better remind her to focus on her studies and not go gallivanting around.” Even though he wasn’t at home, Josiah was kept informed of Willow’s affairs by Morgan.“Dad, how can you say that about Willa? She has always been a good girl. You shouldn’t accuse her of gallivanting outside.” That’s not an appropriate statement to make.“It’s true that she’s a good girl but unfortunate that both of you have spoilt her.” Ever since she was young, all she cared about was fawning upon the powerful instead of learning a proper skill. Moreover, it will only get worse when she grows up.Even though Charmaine was upset with Josiah’s comment, there was nothing
