Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 448

Sophie didn't really seem to mind as she had long since gotten used to Charmaine's nasty attitude.

“You need proof before making such accusations, Mrs. Tanner. I had nothing to do with Willow fainting. If anything, you should be thanking me for sending her to the hospital!”

Not wanting to waste any more of her time and energy arguing with Charmaine, Sophie turned around and began dragging Tristan out of there.

Willow had fainted due to a low blood sugar level, so it wasn't anything serious.

“Hah...” Charmaine let out a cold chuckle in response.

I used to regret treating Sophie poorly before, but now, I just wish I could strangle her to death! How dare she take that tone with me? I'm her mother, for crying out loud! Such insolence is unacceptable!

Although she was infuriated, she didn't dare lash out at Sophie because Tristan was standing right next to her.

Even if Tristan wasn't there, the dangerous aura emanating from Sophie was terrifying enough to deter her.

Given the circumstances, all Charmaine could do was pin her hopes on Willow.

If Clayton can make a comeback, we'll become members of the upper class. I sure hope he'll be all right...

After leaving the hospital, Tristan opened the car door for Sophie and said, “Wait in the car. I'll be right back!”

Unsure of what he was going to do, Sophie replied, “All right.”

Tristan then closed the car door and walked away.

Ten minutes later, he returned with two scoops of ice cream.

“Here you go.”

Tristan didn't like eating ice cream, but he remembered how Ysabelle would eat it whenever she was in a bad mood, and it would make her feel much better afterward.

He figured Sophie must've felt upset after hearing those nasty remarks from her mother.

Sophie froze in shock and confusion when she saw the ice cream cones in his hands.
