Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 391

Sophie halted in her tracks and turned to look at Mark.

"Thanks.”

Mark had offered all the warmth and concern he could muster to her, but alas, she really could not reciprocate it.

“Why don't you guys head home? There's no need to keep waiting here.”

The test that morning was two and a half hours long.

Sophie reckoned the whole thing would probably come to at least three hours, give or take.

As such, she thought The Wheelers being there was just a waste of time. They could very well just go home early.

“You're the star of the show today, so you don't need to worry about us. Go on, now,” said Mark with a smile.

After all, they showed up to cheer her on. The last thing they wanted was to make her worry.

"Okay.”

Sophie had her arm hooked around Tristan's as they both huddled under an umbrella. Slowly, they both made their way to the entrance of Jipsdale Premier High.

“All right, since you can't enter, I think you should go home too.” When they reached the security checkpoint, Sophie stopped walking.

Tristan held up the umbrella to shield them both before lowering his head and kissing her on the lips.

“I believe in you.”

To him, Sophie had always been someone who did not make others worry.

Sophie could not help but laugh.

“All right, I got it! But there's only one umbrella. How will you go back?” It's raining cats and dogs now.

“I'll be fine. Just go on inside. It's been a long time since I've been caught in the rain.” Immediately after saying that, Tristan stepped out into the pouring rain.

“I'll be waiting for you!”

Sophie's heart was filled with warmth as she took in Tristan's touching gesture.

He had always been like this, waiting for her.

Sophie nodded.
