Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 321

“You're so calm, Uncle Tristan! That being said, you're so cool like this!” said Ysabelle earnestly.

However, was it not normal to want the person you liked to remain with you at all times?

“Mr. Tristan, I know you must be suffering deep down. You needn't put on a brave front for our sake, really. Why not take a look?” No matter how magnanimous one wanted to appear, a man could not be this calm knowing that a rival wanted to confess their feelings for the person they fancied.

“There's no need. Plus, they are not to be disturbed,” said Tristan, shooting them a warning glare.

Charles and Sean shared a look.

Tristan's current behavior was foreign to them. After all, if Tristan liked something in the past, the rest of them could barely sneak a second glance.

The fact that Tristan even allowed this to happen was beyond their expectations.

In the meantime, Sophie had gone to see Sunny.

When Sunny saw Sophie, he anxiously confessed, “Sophie, I'm not the one who needs to see you. It's actually Mark. He's got something to tell you.”

Sunny knew he could not hide it anymore, thus he decided to come clean.

Sophie knitted her brows in response.

“Sunny, enough is enough! You've been messing around all night!” Sophie could be quite terrifying when she became serious.

Immediately, Sunny began to try and appease her.

“Sophie, I'm not messing around! Is what I'm saying so hard to believe?” Sunny was, in fact, being truthful the whole time. Why did Sophie think he was messing around?

“I don't know what's so great about Mr. Tristan! Are you getting mad at me because of him?”

Upon hearing this, Sophie could not help but let out an exasperated sigh.

If she had to be honest, Sunny was no longer a child.

Why is he behaving so childishly?
