Pursuing Her

Chapter 72 Should I Follow The Car

Tristan calmly picked up the bowl. Bringing the porcelain bowl to his mouth, he took a huge gulp.

It’s astringent and spicy. Sure enough, it tastes strange.

Sophie continued gazing at him expectantly, hoping that he would finish it all.

Under her hopeful gaze, Tristan mustered his courage and downed the rest of the ginger tea.

“How was it?” Sophie even remembered to ask him for his opinion.

“It was good.”

When Sophie said nothing to that, Tristan reiterated, “Really, it was delicious!”

“All right, then! Since you like it, I’ll make it for you again next time.”

At that, Tristan went silent instead.

“Or do you not like it?”

“Of course not! I love it!”

Sophie washed the porcelain bowl and earthen pot before spinning on her heel and leaving the kitchen.

“Do you need my help with Letitia Gatrell?” Tristan had a thousand ways to have Letitia speak the truth.

He was naturally aware that the woman deliberately framed Transfix Cosmetics, but even if he wanted to help Sophie, it still depended on whether she wanted to accept his help.

“No, it’s okay. I can handle it by myself.”

All at once, Tristan’s expression darkened.

“What’s wrong?” Hmm, why does the atmosphere feel as though it’s somewhat chilly?

“Nothing’s wrong.”

Tristan hoped that Sophie would rely on him no matter the problems she encountered, but she wanted to resolve everything herself, the thought of asking for his help never once crossing her mind. That had him feeling very much defeated.

“I’m not as weak as you think, Mr. Tristan.” Truly, I can settle it by myself!

“Okay.”

Tristan was noncommittal.

Gah! This is not an issue of weak or otherwise! I merely want to help her.

“All right, sleep earlier. You’ve still got class tomorrow.”

Not only does she have to attend classes, but she also has to handle the affairs of Tanner Group, so she must be exceedingly busy!

“Okay.”
