All this while, Tristan wasn’t even bothered to say such words. A single look in his eyes was enough to communicate his intentions.

However, it was Jennifer who persisted in barging into his life.

“Old Mr. Lombard, calm down. I’m taking my leave first.” Regardless of how thick-skinned Jennifer was, she was incapable of staying any longer.

“Mmm-hmm. Go on ahead. Ignore whatever he said. He has gone mad.” William didn’t know what else to say.

Upon Jennifer’s departure, William got to his feet.

“Tristan, you have disappointed me today.”

“I, too, am disappointed in you. I have told you loud and clear not to cause Sophie any trouble, and yet, you refused to listen!”

“So what if I went to see her? It’s not like I harmed her!” William didn’t feel that he had done anything wrong.

“How can you even let that cross your mind?” William meeting Sophie had already crossed Tristan’s threshold, let alone if the former had other plans.

“Hmph, is she really that fragile?” Even Ysabelle isn’t pampered to that extent!

“That’s right. I don’t want her to experience even the slightest bit of suffering!”

Have I made myself clear?

“Do whatever you want! I can’t be bothered with you anymore.”

When Sarah came home to the hostility between father and son, she pulled Tristan aside upon learning what happened.

“What’s wrong with you?” Sophie remarked disapprovingly, “Doing so will only make Father dislike Sophie even more.”

“So what if it does? It’s not like I need him to approve of her. At most, I won’t bring her back home.”

“You—” Sarah shook her head in resignation.
