Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 421

“Would you care to repeat that? What do you mean by an ambiguous relationship? I agreed to Sophie and Tanny's relationship!” How can she talk about Sophie like that?

“Who do you think you are, Grandpa? Do you think everything will work out with your approval? Does the Lombard family agree? They've been together for so long but have you met with any one of the Lombard family members?”

Anger was rolling though Josiah in waves at Willow's ignorance.

“Are you done talking, Willow?” Sophie said, unable to continue listening to her. “Whatever happens between Tristan and I is our problem. What does it have anything to do with you?”

“Exactly! Your problems with Tristan are your issues, so my engagement with Clayton is our problem. What right do any of you have to intervene in my problems?” They're being such hypocrites!

“Sophie, can you talk to your grandpa? I don't think there's an issue with Willow's engagement with Mr. Zales.” Yale truly thought Willow and Clayton's union was perfect.

“Grandpa, just leave her be and let her do whatever she wants.” Every choice she makes is on her. Regardless of the consequences, she'll have to bear them. After all, Willow is already an adult.

Josiah merely shook his head at Willow's stubbornness.

“All right. Pretend I never said anything today. I only hope you don't regret the choices you made today. Clayton is not a good man.” Since she's unwilling to listen, there's no point trying to persuade her anymore.

“Naturally, everyone I meet is bad. You already branded me as being wrong in your mind, so every move I make is wrong.” Willow let out a bitter laugh before running out of the house.

Charmaine immediately chased after her.

Why did things have to turn out this way? No matter what, the engagement is supposed to be good news.

“See what you've done, Dad! Why do you have to make everyone unhappy?” Yale truly didn't understand what was going on in Josiah's mind.

“Get out! I don't want to see you.” Look at the child he raised.

Yale nibbed his nose.

“Willow is right, Dad. You're too biased.” Yale whirled around and left after that. I need to get some fresh air. Being in this house is suffocating me.
