Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 735 Buddies Forever

“Exactly! Be happy, Sophie,” said Sunny. He knew what Mark was feeling, but what was more important at that moment was to be happy for Sophie.

She was once an insecure person.

As time passed, she grew more capable to the point where she could give herself a sense of security.

Nevertheless, she was a lady; she needed someone to be by her side.

“All right. I will. Don't worry, you guys.” In fact, she felt blissful at that moment.

“Okay.”

With that, Tristan arranged for the five of them to sit down. There was about three tables' worth of people who came to the Tanner residence that day. Thankfully, the Tanner family's mansion was relatively big.

It could accommodate so many people for a meal.

Soon, dishes that had been carefully prepared were served, while Yale bustled around. It was a joyous day for him.

After all, how could he not be happy when he could become in-laws with the Lombard family?

When all the dishes were served, Yale rose to his feet and said, “I'm glad that everyone made it to Sophie's engagement ceremony today. We should be eating out on a day like this, but we decided it was more sincere to have the meal at our own home. I hope you guys don't mind.”

All the attendees that day were Sophie's close friends. Naturally, they did not mind it.

In fact, they understood why Sophie had chosen to have the meal there. It was for Josiah's sake.

“Actually, I'm not an eloquent person, but I'm really happy today. I hope these two can live happily in the future,” added Yale.

“Of course they will. Please sit down and join us. You've been busy helping around the whole day.” William gestured for Yale to sit down.

Seeing that, Yale sat beside William.

Never in his wildest imagination did he think he would have the chance to sit beside such an influential person.

It was all thanks to Sophie.

Everyone began digging in. After some time, Tristan and Sophie got up. As they stood side by side, their handsome and beautiful appearance made them look like a match made in heaven.

“Many things have happened throughout this period. With this toast, we'd like to thank everyone for always taking care of us.”

Tristan appreciated everything everyone did for them.

“If something happens to any of you in the future, both of us will not hesitate to help you out.”

That day, Tristan finally said the words he had never got to say.

Sophie nodded in agreement. “That's right. Thank you, everyone.”

Seeing how the couple complemented each other well, William felt as if no other woman, apart from Sophie, was worthy of his son.

The two formed a beautiful scenery as they stood together.

That was something no one could deny.

Right then, Ysabelle grabbed Felix's hand. “Felix, I still find all this unbelievable. I can't believe Uncle Tristan is finally settling down.”

In the past, she had thought Tristan was going to be alone for the rest of his life because he was not interested in any women.

Ever since Sophie appeared, however, everything changed. The way Tristan treated her was so great that it made others envious of her.

“Let's get married, too.” When Felix saw Tristan looking so happy, he wanted to get married as well. They were almost the same age. Now that Tristan was married, Felix naturally had the urge to do so.

Ysabelle shook her head.

“No. My career has just started. How can I get married at this time?” Ysabelle was not a genius like Sophie. The latter had skipped a grade while Ysabelle was still in her first year of university. It would take at least three years before she graduated.

She wanted to wait until she graduated before getting married.

Felix hugged her arm.

“All right. All that matters is that you're happy. I have no objections.” Envy was written all over his face.

Ysabelle, too, felt an urge to get married when she saw the way he reacted.

However, she was a singer, and most of her fans were males. If she were to get married now, her fans might stop supporting her.

Ysabelle could not accept an outcome like that.

Tristan brought Sophie to every table to have a toast. When they arrived at William's table, William smiled.

“Sophie, this was left by Tristan's mother. She wanted to give it to her future daughters-in-law. Lincoln's wife had already received hers. This is yours.”

As he said that, he took out a jewelry box he treasured a lot.

The box was extremely exquisite. It was left by his wife before she died.

“I know young people nowadays don't like things like that, but this is for you. Take it.”

Sophie accepted the box with both hands and said, “I'll take good care of it.” To her, anything left by Tristan's mother was something precious.

“Thank you for giving us your blessing, Dad,” said Tristan. To be able to receive blessings from one's own family was a great thing.
