Pursuing Her

Chapter 193 Instigator

“Hello, Old Mr. Tanner. I’m Sophie’s classmate and best friend,” Ysabelle said cheerfully.

“Your good looks tell me you’re quite blessed, young lady,” Josiah praised. “Soph must really like you! She doesn’t have a lot of friends, so I hope you’ll get along well with her.”

“Don’t worry, Old Mr. Tanner! I’ll always stay by Soph’s side and be her strongest support!” Ysabelle’s eyes were sparkling. When she spoke, her long eyelashes would flutter, which made her look gorgeous.

Josiah could tell she had no ulterior motive for being Sophie’s friend, which made him like her even more.

“That’s right! Even though Sophie doesn’t have a lot of friends, the ones she does have all treat her sincerely, Old Mr. Tanner,” Arius added. He must be joking about her not having many friends, right? Any one of her friends is enough to terrify you all!

“Mhm, that’s good. With you two by her side, I know she won’t feel lonely after I’m gone.” While Josiah’s operation was successful, he was pretty old already. It was hard to say how much time he had left.

Sophie wasn’t happy when she heard him say something like that.

“Why are you saying that, Grandpa? Didn’t I tell you already that the operation was successful? You’ll definitely stay by my side,” she uttered. Old people sure do like to overthink things.

“I know the operation is successful. All right, let’s change the topic.” He was happy to see her having so many friends by her side.

Then he chuckled. “Tanny, have you brought them out for a meal yet? It’s about time to eat. Have you all eaten yet?”

Ysabelle almost laughed when she heard how Josiah addressed her uncle, but she managed to hold it back. I guess it’s natural that Sophie’s grandfather gives Uncle Tristan a nickname like that. Although, this relationship seems a bit messy!
