Pursuing Her

Tristan brought Sophie to Blossom Garden. By the time they reached their destination, Sean and the others had already arrived. Ysabelle was present too.

When Ysabelle saw Sophie, she immediately started rambling on about the recent events.

“Do you think I should join the variety show, Sophie? I don't have a lot of time right now, but I really want to join this show with Mark and the others.” Ysabelle was in a dilemma. The Wheelers were her idols, after all.

“If you want to join the show, then go ahead. There's no need for you to be torn about it. I don't think it'll take up much time, anyway. Besides, it'll be a chance for you to learn from Mark and the others.” In Sophie's opinion, it would be a shame if Ysabelle passed up on that great opportunity.

“All right, then! I'll tell Jonathan that I want to join.” Ysabelle made up her mind after listening to Sophie's sentiment regarding the variety show.

In reality, Felix did not want her to go.

The thought of her, a woman, attending a variety show with a few men made him worry.

Hence, he protested, “Actually, I think—”

Ysabelle promptly interrupted, “It wasn't easy for me to make this decision, Felix. So, please don't sway me, all right? All you need to do now is support me.” Whatever persuasion he was about to make would be pointless.

That rendered Felix speechless.

She knew me so well that she predicted what I wanted to say.

“Fine. Since you're putting it like that, I'll definitely support you. You don't need to worry about anything and just go,” he said in the end.

Only then did she smile. At the same time, Charles had returned from picking up Eric at the hotel.

When the group noticed Eric's arrival, they promptly rose to their feet to greet him. It was only polite to show a foreign guest some decorum.

Tristan personally introduced Eric to Sophie and Ysabelle. The moment Eric saw the two beautiful women, his eyes lit up brightly.

“Hello! I'm Eric,” he said as he extended his hand toward Sophie, finding her temperament remarkable. A beat later, he asked, “Do you have any interest in becoming our global spokesperson?”

His company had been searching for a suitable individual to occupy that position. However, despite the massive effort and money the company spent on scouting for such a candidate, they found none in the entertainment industry.

That was why he was surprised to find one during the dinner.

As for Sophie, she had already gotten used to scenarios like those. Still, she politely shook Eric's hand. “Nice to meet you, Mr. Eric. I'm Tristan's girlfriend. Thank you for your kind words. However, I'm not a celebrity.”

“It's fine! There's no rule saying only celebrities can be a spokesperson. Your appearance and temperament suit our brand perfectly. May I suggest you consider my offer seriously?” Eric requested emotionally.

He never thought he would find the perfect candidate in such a place after a long search.

“Let's have dinner first, Eric. It's time to eat.” Tristan interrupted their conversation. Anyone with a pair of eyes could tell that Eric admired Sophie.

However, it was time for dinner, which should take priority over any other matter.

Besides, no one could force Sophie to do anything she did not want to.

“All right, let's dine first!” After busying about for the whole afternoon, Eric was feeling pretty hungry. I always hear that the food in Chanaea is delicious. Finally, I have the chance to eat authentic Chanaean dishes today!

Truthfully, he was quite the glutton.

He very much enjoyed eating delicacies from different countries.

When he saw the delectable dishes on the table, he temporarily pushed his thoughts on various matters to the back of his mind and dug in.

Ysabelle sat next to Sophie and said, “I knew you're suited for the entertainment industry. You should've joined when I told you to! Look, you only needed to show up to receive a valuable endorsement!”

It's something that many people can't get, no matter how hard they try!

“Let's just eat,” Sophie urged.

Jobs like those truly did not interest her, especially when she very much enjoyed her current life.

She did not want to become a public figure and expose herself to everyone.

“Okay, then!” Ysabelle was aware that no one could change Sophie's mind once the latter had made a decision.

A moment later, Tristan put some food on Sophie's plate.

“You should eat more. You've gotten even thinner lately,” he said gently. Sophie already loses weight easily, yet, for some reason, she has become thinner, which pains me to see.

“I know. You should eat too,” Sophie exhorted. He always tries to take care of me whenever we're together.

The corners of Eric's lips curved even higher when he witnessed the couple's interaction. He was also a profoundly affectionate man, and he still loved his wife dearly, even after twenty years of marriage.

“You love your girlfriend deeply, huh, Tristan?” he remarked.

Lifting his head, Tristan replied, “That's right. I love my girlfriend deeply. She's the only woman I'll ever have in my life and my one true love. There's a phrase in Chanaea that describes our relationship, which is 'a couple for life.'“

Eric bobbed his head repeatedly as he listened on.

Tristan's words further strengthened his resolve to work with him.

He liked Tristan a lot.

At that moment, Eric lifted his glass. “I think our collaboration this time will surely be very successful!”

It was apparent the collaboration would be fruitful because all four men present at the dinner were the cream of the crop, not to mention that they worked together.
