Pursuing Her

“That’s because you’re truly impressive, Ms. Sophie!”

If Sophie was not all that capable, things would not have gone so smoothly.

“Can you two stop flattering each other already? Show some consideration for our feelings, will you?”

“How is this flattery? Victor is truly exceptional!” Sophie exclaimed, her tone brimming with sincerity and admiration. There was no denying that Victor was a capable man.

A tad embarrassed by the high praise, Victor uttered modestly, “I didn’t do much, Ms. Sophie. It was your leadership that made everything possible.”

Tristan, feeling a tinge of jealousy, chimed in, “You both did very well, all right? Let’s focus on the food now that it’s served. Dig in, everyone!”

As Sophie continued to heap praise on another man, Tristan couldn’t help but feel a twinge of unhappiness, despite it being the truth.

Casting a glance at Tristan, Victor discreetly raised his wine glass and took a sip. He truly hadn’t expected that even someone like Tristan could be so adorable when feeling jealous.

Sophie placed a serving of barbecue ribs on Tristan’s plate.

“You’re amazing, too. Thank you for supporting me no matter what I do,” she whispered in his ear.

“Of course! I’ll always have your back, supporting you no matter what decision you make,” the man declared with conviction.

However, Charles only felt tortured by their lovey-dovey interaction.

“Know your limits, you two! Both Victor and I are still single. You can’t be so cruel to us, you know?” he voiced in dismay.

I shouldn’t have come here tonight! Now, I have to sit here and endure their public display of affection. This is practically torture!

Just then, Victor raised his glass of wine.

“Mr. Quigley, let me offer you a toast as a fellow bachelor,” he said jokingly.

As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. It’s no surprise to see that Ms. Sophie is surrounded by prominent figures of Jipsdale who are within sight but beyond reach.

A smile illuminated Sophie’s visage as she chimed in, “Victor, you shouldn’t devote all of your time to Tanner Group. Go out there and find love for yourself. At your age, it’s time to consider settling down.”

The topic was a source of headache for Victor.
