Pursuing Her

Ysabelle called the driver and asked him to come in and bring Felix out.

Sophie and Cecelia returned to the couch and sat down.

“Are you really going to let her be?”

“It really depends on fate sometimes. No one can say for sure. Just let her be!”

It's not in our control if something really does happen.

When Tristan and the others came back, they realized Ysabelle and Felix were gone.

“Where's Ysabelle?”

Sophie summarized the situation for Tristan.

“It's okay. Let the two of them solve their own problem. Having them stay will just affect everyone's mood here.” Tristan was broad-minded.

He understood Felix and knew that the latter would not hurt Ysabelle.

Tristan and Sophie shared the same sentiment.

“Are you tired? If you're tired, I'll take you back now,” Tristan asked thoughtfully.

Sophie nodded. “I'm not tired, but I feel like leaving.”

“Okay. Let's go, then.” After that, Tristan said to the others, “Are you guys going to continue or go back now? We're leaving.”

“The main star is not here anymore. What's the point of staying? Let's leave together!” Sean was weary too.

Seeing that Sean was going to leave as well, Cecelia immediately asked, “Mr. Burton, could you give me a lift, please? I didn't drive here today.”

Sophie glanced at her.

“Why are you looking at me like that? I'm telling the truth. My assistant went abroad with me for a long time. Now that we're back, I gave her a few days off,” Cecilia explained. I'm really telling the truth. I don't have any ulterior motives to get close to the lawyer.

“I didn't say anything, did I? You were the one who's been talking. Are you feeling guilty?” Sophie teased in a hushed tone.

Cecelia pinched her. “What are you talking about? I can't stand the lawyer's coldness.”

Even if I'm looking for someone to date, I'll look for a passionate lover. Why would I find an iceberg like him to freeze myself?

Sophie shook her head, not planning to stick her nose into other people's business. “You don't have to explain anything to me. But as your friend, I have to remind you that the lawyer is really difficult to deal with.”

“How difficult can he be?” Cecelia shrugged nonchalantly. “Once I have the time, I'll go and hit on him.” As long as I want to, there's no man who won't fall for my charms.

Sophie disagreed, “Cecelia, that man is not one you want to mess with. You'd better not bother him, or you might not be able to bear the consequences.”

Sean was not one to be trifled with.

“All right, I get it. I know what I'm doing. You don't have to worry about me.” Cecilia wanted to hit on him, but she had to have the time to do it. “After this movie is over, I must take a good vacation.”

It'd been a long time since Cecilia had had a sweet relationship. She needed to destress.

“You'd better concentrate on your career!” Sophie advised. In her opinion, if Cecilia was not looking for a serious relationship, it'd be better for her to focus on filming instead of fooling around. Otherwise, she might end up hurting the man and herself.

Cecelia felt a little melancholy. “To be honest, I really like filming, but people have to know how to regulate themselves. As the saying goes, art is life, and life is art. If I don't even understand life myself, how can I get better at portraying a character in a movie?”

Just then, Tristan said, “Sean, you'll drive her back.” He was unwilling to bring Cecilia along with him and Sophie. Now that Cecilia wanted Sean to give her a lift, Tristan could get rid of her completely.

Cecelia looked at Tristan with a hurt expression. “Mr. Tristan, do you really hate me so much?”

Rendered speechless, Tristan decided to ignore her.

“Ms. Lance, where do you live?” Sean glanced at his watch. Since Cecilia was Sophie's friend, sending her back home would not be a problem.

“We probably won't be heading the same way. It's up to you now whether or not you want to send me back,” Cecelia joked. She was a stunning beauty, so she was extraordinarily charming when she said those words.

“Ms. Lance, it's my honor to send you back.” Sean rose to his feet.

Charles looked regretful. “Actually, I want to give her a ride too.”

Cecelia was considered a graceful and gorgeous lady even in the upper-class circle.

Cecelia merely smiled in response.

Having been in the entertainment industry for so long, she genuinely disdained Charles' behavior.

Even if she wanted to find someone to have a fling with, it wouldn't be Charles.

The irritation in Charles' heart grew.

Why does no one like me? My looks and body figure are as great as Sean's. Besides, I understand women more than he does.

“Thank you. I shall leave Cecelia to you, then,” Sophie said to Sean.

“Ms. Lance, let's go!”

Cecelia immediately went to Sean's side.

As the two stood side by side, they looked surprisingly compatible.

Cecelia got into Sean's car, then Sophie and Tristan left as well.

“Is your friend interested in Sean?” Tristan asked. In fact, there were quite a lot of people who found Sean attractive. Although Sean was a quiet person, he would make a great life partner. He and Charles were poles apart in terms of personality.

“Probably not.” Sophie was unsure as well.

Cecelia had always been like that. Sophie had never seen her in a serious relationship.

“She'd better not. If she's really interested in him, you should remind her not to make a move on Sean,” Tristan replied. “Sean's highly committed to relationships. Once he falls for someone, he'll love that person wholeheartedly.”
