Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 804 She Is One Of Us

Even so, Simon knew hard work would only get him that far. He still needed connections to bridge the gap.

Now, Sophie was giving him that chance.

“Yeah, try it out! I'll be gone for a couple of days, but Dr. Bates will be here. If you have any questions, you may go to her.”

Sophie then introduced Georgina to the two.

“Hi, I'm Georgina Bates. Feel free to ask me any questions you might have. I'll try my best to help you out! My phone number is...”

Simon and Sandra immediately took out their phone and saved Georgina's number. After a few more exchanges, Georgina excused herself to return to work.

Meanwhile, Sophie took the two on a tour around Chanaean Medical Association.

Sandra and Simon looked around curiously. Everything seemed so novel to them.

“Can we really work here, Sophie?” Sandra still couldn't believe that was true.

She knew her abilities well and was aware it wasn't sufficient to land a job there.

Simon was even worse than her.

“Sure you can! You can start as a trainee. There'll be a test two years later. If you pass it, you'll be part of the medical association,” Sophie explained. “Are you willing to be a trainee?”

Simon nodded immediately as if afraid Sophia would rescind her offer.

Is she joking? Even if the job is part of a cleaning crew, I'll still eagerly take it, much less a trainee!

Sophie turned to Sandra.

“What about you?”

Sandra had been shadowing her at the University of Medicine for a year and had actually improved by leaps and bounds. However, she didn't realize it.

“Of course I'm willing. I'm still in a daze, Sophie. It feels like I'm in a dream.”

The dream she had always wished for had finally become a reality that day. How could she be unwilling to accept Sophie's offer?

I'm more than willing!

“This is reality, Sandra. This is not a dream. Don't worry. There's nothing impossible in this world as long as we have Sophie with us,” Simon concluded proudly.

They were grateful to have met and befriended Sophie.

Sandra nodded, agreeing with Simon's words.

He's right. There's nothing impossible with Sophie here.

“Since Georgina joined earlier than you both, you can look for her if you have any questions. Don't be shy. She's one of us.”

“Okay, Sophie. We know you're busy, so you can leave us to our own devices and return to work.”

They could wander around themselves.

“I'll be abroad for a few days, so let's talk once I return. Whatever questions you may have, I'll answer them then.” Sophie knew they had plenty of questions for her, but she really didn't have time to clear up their confusion.

“Where are you going? Is there something we can help with? Remember to tell us if it's something that we can help you with. Don't be courteous.” After all, Sophie had been helping them the whole time, and they hadn't been able to return the favor.

“All right. Thank you for your kind offer.” Sophia had no intention of divulging her issues since they couldn't help at all, so she didn't want to cause them more trouble.

“Aren't we useless, Sophie? We can't help you with anything.”

Disappointment filled Sandra as she couldn't give a helping hand to her dear friend.

There had been many occasions where she and Simon wanted to help, but their capabilities became their stumbling blocks.

“Don't overthink. I still have some work to finish. Feel free to take a look around.” Sophie still had other things to do, so she didn't have the time to accompany them.

Once Sophie left, Simon said excitedly, “Sandra, don't overthink. Haven't you always dreamed of being a part of the medical association? Now that we're finally here, we just have to do our best so that we don't embarrass Sophie!” They refused to be a source of chagrin to Sophie. Anything they did would reflect on her since she brought them there.

“Yeah. I'll work hard. Simon, you have to work hard too! We have to work even harder!” He's right. How can I embarrass Sophie? We might not be as talented as her, but we should be able to increase our chances of staying at the medical association if we work hard.

“I don't ever want to leave the medical association since I'm already here, Simon.” She might not be as obsessed if she hadn't been there. Yet, because she'd been there, she was more determined than ever to stay.

Simon nodded.

“It looks like we're on the same page.” You can only protect the one you want to protect when you stand at the very top.

Simon resolved to work hard, albeit slowly, to equip himself with abilities that could get him to the top. He didn't want others to determine his life and death.

Ysabelle knew Sophie was leaving for Anglandur soon, so she began packing. When Sophie arrived at the mansion, she saw Ysabelle lugging a packed suitcase toward her.

Sophie narrowed her eyes at Ysabelle, trying to get a read on her.

“What do you think you're doing? Don't you have any work recently?” It's already a new year, and I'm sure she has plenty of things to do, but isn't her work supposed to be local?

Ysabelle immediately shook her head.

“I heard you're leaving for Anglandur. I'm going with you,” Ysabelle said with a smile. “Please don't turn me down, Sophie! I want to go with you.”
