Pursuing Her

Chapter 107 What Is Her Relationship To Him

“That’s right. Who else could it be, aside from her?” Tristan was totally unabashed about his favoritism toward Sophie.

Hearing him say that gave Winter a feeling of tightness in her chest. It was as though she was suffocating from being throttled.

“It’s been a while, Mr. Tristan.”

Winter finally regained her own voice. No matter. It’s not too late so long as they are yet to marry.

Tristan merely acknowledge her with a nod.

“Let’s go and get this document signed then. A good thing that I got here in time too, as I wouldn’t know where else I’d be able to find you otherwise.”

“Stick around for a bit. I’ll drive you over later.” Tristan reiterated as he did not want her to leave on her own.

Only after he saw Sophie signal her agreement did Tristan take Charles upstairs. His personal seal had still been left on the ninetieth floor.

That left Winter and Sophie inside the lobby.

Not the chatty sort, to begin with, Sophie was not that fond of Winter either. Hence, she had no inclination to interact with the latter and simply sat there in silence while she waited.

That made Winter feel indignant.

A real snobbish one, aren’t you? You’re only getting to remain by Mr. Tristan’s side temporarily, and that’s it. What’s there for you to be so stuck up about?

“I heard that Transfix Cosmetics are making real progress under your stewardship, so congrats!” said Winter while she absentmindedly tousled her own hair.

Sophie merely grunted and made no attempt to build on the conversation.

“You’ve seen for yourself, Sophie. Mr. Tristan and you aren’t in the same league, no matter how much effort you put in. We ought to be aware of our own limitations so as not to make life any more difficult for ourselves than it needs to be.”
