Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 378

“Nicholas sustained an injury last night. It's all because of you. Am I right?” Javier questioned. Sure enough, his sole purpose in calling Sophie was to interrogate her about that matter.

“Is it though? He can't blame anyone but himself for getting injured. What does it have to do with me? Judging from the kind of person he is, I reckon many people are interested in taking his life,” Sophie snapped, not showing any courtesy.

It was unnecessary for her to have any respect for an elderly like Javier, who had made several attempts to kill her.

“Then why did you still come to Anglandur? I've already warned you not to approach Nicholas, haven't I? Why can't you just listen to me?”

Every remark he made is to threaten me. Sophie could not help but sneer.

“Why can't I visit Anglandur? Do you own the entire country? Old Mr. Sable, I'm warning you, don't show up before me. Or else, I'm not even sure what I'm going to do by then,” she retorted impertinently.

“Is that so? You're thinking of killing me, right? Hmph! We'll see if you're capable of such a feat!” Javier had always been exceptionally haughty his whole life, and he never really treated anyone with respect.

“Try me then! We'll see who is the ultimate loser!”

Sophie couldn't be bothered entertaining the old man. She disconnected the call right after she finished her sentence.

Furious after being hung up on, Javier tossed his phone aside and snapped, “What a lofty young lady!”

Javier had long since known that he would not be able to keep Sophie under control. That was the reason why he had always wanted to end her life.

The present Sophie had become even haughtier than she was a few years ago.

Thus, there was no way the old man would allow someone like Sophie to live on.

“Calm down, Boss. We're at Anglandur. There are plenty of ways to make an expendable young lady disappear.”

“Good. Go ahead and make the necessary arrangements. Don't ever let her leave this place alive,” instructed Javier, going to extreme lengths.

“Understood, Boss.”

Concurrently, Tristan took note of Sophie's demeanor when she was on the phone just then and frowned.

“Who was that?” he asked.

“An annoying old man!”
