Pursuing Her

Chapter 655

I have devoted many years of service working for the Tanner Group. How can she be so merciless?

“Is that so? How dare you bring up my grandpa! If you're truly grateful to my grandpa, you should know it was because of his benevolence that a not-very-brilliant person like you can take on the role of a financial manager. Yet what did you do in return?”

James snorted coldly. “You weren't even born when I was making a living along with Old Mr. Tanner. Do you really believe you're doing the right thing by mistreating us who have made great contributions after Old Mr. Tanner passed away? You ungrateful brat!”

Why do I have to beg her desperately since she isn't going to let me go? Isn't that completely unnecessary?

“How dare you call her ungrateful? All right, there's no need to say so much to him, Sophie. Leave it for the police to deal with him.”

There are always people who feel that the whole world is against them.

Tristan reckoned it was meaningless to continue the conversation since they did not see eye to eye.

“Mr. Tristan, I—”

James was filled with nothing but regret now. However, there was nothing he could do. It was impossible for him to escape since others had dirt on him.

“Take him away,” Tristan said to the people behind him.

“Ms. Sophie, I was wrong. Please let me off for my old times' sake with Old Mr. Tanner.”

“Ha!”

Sophie could not even bother sparing him a glance. How dare he mention my grandpa at this point!

Some distance away, James was still shouting.

However, no one paid any attention to him.

“All right, you don't have to let such a person spoil your mood.” The law would surely punish James since he had violated it.

“Don't worry. I'm fine. He's just someone insignificant.”

When they were about to leave, Jennifer was led outside in handcuffs. She seemed to be getting transferred to another place to be locked up.


Jennifer gritted her teeth when she saw them.

Yet, she did not dare to look at Tristan, whom she liked, in her disheveled state.

Tristan was indifferent when seeing her. It was as though he was looking at a stranger.

Jennifer understood at that point that Tristan had never liked her.

Moreover, he did not have an ounce of sympathy for the current state she was in.

Perhaps he might even think that it served her right.

“Do you really not have any feelings for me, Mr. Tristan?” Jennifer could not help but ask even though she reckoned she had given up on him.

Tristan finally looked at her.

“Didn't I tell you before, Jennifer? I've never liked you,” Tristan answered coldly and straightforwardly.

Jennifer's lips curled into a smile. However, it was a very bitter one.

“Do you think my current situation serves me right? Why? Why can't you feel how much I like you? What's so great about Sophie?” Jennifer asked indignantly.

She refused to accept the reality no matter what.

She had sacrificed so much, yet he had never spared her a glance.

“Everything about her is great. Even if she has any flaws, she will always be adorable in my eyes because I love her.”

That was the difference between someone he loved and someone he did not love.

Tristan could accept everything about Sophie because of love.

For someone Tristan did not love, it had nothing to do with him no matter how perfect she was. He would be unconcerned and would not even bother to look at her.

Jennifer had completely given up on him.

“I truly wish you would lie to me once. Maybe I wouldn't feel so pathetic now if you said you had liked me a little bit.”

All Jennifer could feel was despair.

She felt as if her entire heart had shattered.

Yet, there was nothing she could do.

“You've won, Sophie!” Finally, Jennifer's gaze fell on her. She's really amazing to be able to get Tristan to fall for her like this. No other woman can walk into Tristan's heart.

“Jennifer, haven't I warned you already? You asked for it. You can't blame anyone.”

Jennifer deserved to end up like this for trying to set Sophie up.

Moreover, she did those things herself, which made her a bigger sinner.

“Ms. Whitley, it's almost time. You have to leave now,” the law enforcer beside her reminded.

Jennifer gradually walked forward and did not turn her head back again.

She knew Tristan would not spare an ounce of sympathy for her. After all, he was truly heartless to other women.

Sophie leaned against a chair after coming out of the Department of Justice. It's all over. Jennifer has gotten her punishment, and she will undoubtedly spend some time in jail. But why am I not happy?

“What's wrong?”
