Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 205 Punishment
“Why are you crying like you’re a pig being slaughtered? It’s just attempted murder. You’re getting bolder and bolder, Willow!” Sophie uttered nonchalantly.
“Do you really think you’re my opponent? Why is your memory so bad? You should know there’s no way you can win against me, yet you keep trying. What do you think I should do with you right now, hmm? Should I hand you over to the police?” A troubled look appeared on Sophie’s face.
Willow shook her head desperately. No! Don’t hand me over to the police! I don’t want to go to the police station!
“Forget it! It’s getting pretty late. I can’t let the whole family suffer with you.” Then, Sophie grabbed a rope and tied her up before throwing her into the bathroom.
“Reflect on your actions here, and we’ll have a nice chat tomorrow. Otherwise, don’t blame me for what I’ll do!” When she finished speaking, she even yawned.
Since there wasn’t any heater in the bathroom, the temperature inside was really low, so much so that it made Willow tremble from the cold.
Sophie didn’t give a crap about her and went back to sleep.
Thus, Willow was forced to spend a night in a cold, wet bathroom.
The next morning, Charmaine went to her room to invite her to breakfast. When she didn’t see her there, she immediately went looking for her.
“What’s going on? Wasn’t she in the house last night? Why did she disappear?” Yale had given up all hope on Willow.
With Tristan’s support, he had no reason to choose anyone but Sophie.
“I also don’t know. She’s been feeling pretty unwell recently. You know her hand was injured because of Sophie, and women like to look beautiful, so…” Charmaine replied.
“All right, that’s enough. She should be in the house. Quickly, Dad’s about to wake up, but the breakfast is not ready yet!” He needed to head to the company soon because things were getting busy as year-end was coming.
“Breakfast is ready long ago! Just eat.” She was still worried about her daughter.

Even after everyone came to eat breakfast, Willow was still nowhere to be found.
When she saw Sophie, she couldn’t help but ask, “Did you see Willow, Soph? It’s like she disappeared into thin air!”
“Ah, Willow, is it? She’s in my bathroom!” Sophie didn’t feel like she should hide that.
After all, it was only a matter of time before she needed to deal with it.
“What? What’s going on?” Josiah was shocked upon hearing that. “Why is she in your room?”
He was aware that the sisters weren’t close enough to sleep in the same bed.
“Last night, she tried to use a fruit knife to ruin my face. Thankfully, I caught her in time. I was afraid of affecting everyone’s sleep, so I tied her up and threw her into the bathroom first.” She thought she was doing a favor for everyone since there was no reason to create so much noise during the night.
“What?” Charmaine couldn’t believe her ears. Without delay, she asked a few housekeepers to follow her into Sophie’s room. When she opened the door, she saw Willow lying there, with her limbs tied up and her mouth stuffed with a towel.
The moment Willow saw Charmaine, tears streamed down her cheeks.
As Charmaine pulled the towel out of her mouth, she spoke. “What’s gotten into you, Willa? Why are you doing this instead of listening to me? Didn’t I ask you to stay as far away from Sophie as possible? Why are you so stubborn?”
Willow immediately cried when her mouth was free.
She tried to cry very loudly to show everyone how aggrieved she was.
However, she couldn’t make a sound after staying inside the bathroom for a whole night.
“Quickly, take her away and give her a hot shower! Help her change into a new set of clothes!” Charmaine was extremely worried. Sophie is too merciless! No matter what happens, Willow is still her sister!
After the housekeepers did as she asked, she brought Willow downstairs.
The second Willow’s line of sight landed on Sophie, she wanted to tear the latter into pieces.
However, Sophie only shot a glance at her sister for her to behave.
“What’s going on with you, Willow? Your recent performance has been extremely disappointing! Sophie is still your sister. How could you hurt her?” Yale roared.
Hearing that made Willow feel really aggrieved.
In the past, her father had always been standing by her side.
Yet, at that moment, he was on Sophie’s side.
Willow wanted to explain, but she still couldn’t speak. The cold she had gotten due to what happened last night was too serious.
“Apologize to Soph right away, Willow! Don’t you know this is a criminal offense?” Josiah gazed at her disapprovingly. Why is she acting like this at such a young age? “I think she should be sent to the countryside for a period of time!” His idea was to let the people there reform her.
“Dad, Willow is still young!” Charmaine argued.
“Not anymore. It’s because you’ve been spoiling her that such a thing happened! You must take responsibility for what has become of Willow!”
