“Besides, do you think anyone’s going to abandon someone as amazing as me?” Tristan asked.

Speculations ran through Felix’s mind when he heard that. That’s hard to say! If it’s someone else, they may hold onto you tightly. However, when it comes to Sophie, nothing is certain. She’s a difficult person to grasp.

“I’m not wasting my time talking to you anymore. I’m heading over to pick them up,” Tristan informed after checking the time and realizing that Sophie’s and Ysabelle’s class at half past two was about to start soon.

Hah. He acts as though he isn’t worried, yet he’s in such a rush. Felix said, “I’ll go with you, Mr. Tristan. It’s been more than a week since I last saw Ysabelle, too.”

He really did quite miss her.

“No, you’re not. You need to check this case first!” Tristan proceeded to hand him a folder before leaving.

Once again, Felix was left in the wind. Mr. Tristan’s so mean! Not only did he force me to do his job so that he could meet his girlfriend, but he also forbade me from seeing the person I like!

“Mr. Tristan—” Before he could get any more words out, he received a reply in the form of the door slamming shut.

It was already two in the afternoon, so Sophie had to leave. Otherwise, she would be late. Therefore, after she talked about a few more things with The Wheelers, she stepped out of the studio.

“I’ll send you two back.” Mark followed her out. While his band needed to rush the album’s progress, he knew it wasn’t easy for someone to hail a taxi in that area. As such, he was worried about the girls’ safety.

“No need. We can ride a taxi back to school. You should return to the recording.”

“Then I’ll walk you both out. I’ll return after seeing the two of you leave in a taxi,” Mark insisted.

Sunny couldn’t help but sigh when he saw that. He still can’t let it go, huh? What a shame. Mark and Sophie would make for a good couple if not for Tristan’s existence. This Tristan is… Ugh… Even I have no idea how to make of this situation.

When the girls and Mark walked out of the studio, they saw Tristan’s car parked at the side of the road.

Mark didn’t say anything when he saw Tristan.

“Since someone’s already here to pick you up, I’ll be heading back upstairs now.” Mark left before Sophie could say anything.
