Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 529

Tristan looked dapper in a black custom suit, and his hair was styled neatly.

Jennifer was captivated the instant she saw her crush.

For a moment there, she did not know how to react. She had been passionately in love with Tristan for ten years.

It's been ten years! How many ten years can a woman have?

Just as she was about to step forward to greet him, she saw him gently helping a girl out of the car.

The tall and slender girl had braided hair and was exceptionally beautiful.

Not only that, but she was also wearing a dress that matched the color of Tristan's tie.

What exactly is their relationship?

Jennifer's expression turned sour.

Isn't Mr. Tristan here for our blind date? Why did he bring such a beautiful girl with him?

Naturally, other young ladies from wealthy families also attended the charity dinner that evening. However, instead of entering, they lingered at the entrance to take another glance at Tristan.

Upon witnessing the scene, those young ladies, who had been very jealous of Jennifer, started to mock her. “I know you've been in love with Mr. Tristan all this time, Jennifer, but you should know he has high standards. Look how beautiful the girl next to him is!”

Jennifer clenched her fists.

“What do you mean by that?” Are they saying that I'm not attractive enough?

“Nothing. I just wanted to say that you shouldn't be upset even if Mr. Tristan doesn't like you. It's certainly not your fault! His standards are just too high!”

Even though they were words of consolation, the one who spoke made them seem harsh and cynical.

“You—”

By then, Tristan had already brought Sophie over.


Since they stepped out of the car, those wealthy young ladies had been fixing their eyes on Sophie. Jennifer, especially, had murderous intent written all over her face.

Sophie stood before Jennifer right then and gave her a nod. “Hello, Ms. Whitley. I'm Sophie Tanner, Mr. Tristan's girlfriend.”

She did not like others questioning her identity, so she was upfront about it to stop them from fantasizing about him.

Jennifer felt as if she had been slapped hard in the face.

Mr. Tristan's girlfriend! I've never seen him admit to having a girlfriend even though I know there's no way he would be without a woman at his side, given the number of admirers he has. Could this young girl be his lover for real?

“Mr. Tristan, is what she said true?” Jennifer ignored Sophie. Who does she think she is? What right does she have to tell me all that?

Tristan was utterly displeased with Jennifer's attitude toward Sophie.

“Yes. Sophie is my girlfriend!”

His direct acknowledgment of Sophie's identity was not what Jennifer or the other ladies had anticipated.

“Are there any more questions?”

“No.”

Jennifer was dumbfounded. Yet, at that point, she knew she could not stir up any trouble. She could only let the guests in first, lest she embarrass herself further.

Tristan put his arm around Sophie's slender waist and led her in. Sarah and Ysabelle immediately followed.

“Are you two planning to announce it to everyone?” The latter two had never seen the couple display their affection so openly.

“Yes!” Sophie responded.

If this is the only way to prevent other women from hitting on Tristan, I'll gladly make it known to the entire world that Tristan is mine. No one is allowed to have any fantasies about him.

Ysabelle was incredibly delighted with Sophie's response.

“That's the way to do it, Sophie! You must let everyone know. Otherwise, they'll still believe that anyone can be Uncle Tristan's girlfriend!”

The charity dinner began.

Although the Whitley family had prepared a lavish dinner, the daughters and wives of wealthy families were not there to eat but to help their families expand their networks.

They barely touched their food.

Ysabelle, on the other hand, did not care about any of that.

She had not had dinner and was very hungry at that moment, so she ate with relish.

“Have some, Sophie. It's quite tasty!” she remarked. As expected of a five-star chef. The food is pretty good.

“I'm not hungry,” was Sophie's reply.

She and Tristan had already eaten before heading there.

You can't possibly expect me to eat on such an occasion, right?

Tristan gave her a glass of milk.

“Have some.”

“Okay.”
