Pursuing Her Chapter 378

“Nicholas sustained an injury last night. It's all because of you. Am I right?” Javier questioned. Sure
enough, his sole purpose in calling Sophie was to interrogate her about that matter.

“Is it though? He can't blame anyone but himself for getting injured. What does it have to do with me?
Judging from the kind of person he is, I reckon many people are interested in taking his life,” Sophie
snapped, not showing any courtesy.

It was unnecessary for her to have any respect for an elderly like Javier, who had made several
attempts to kill her.

“Then why did you still come to Anglandur? I've already warned you not to approach Nicholas, haven't
I? Why can't you just listen to me?”

Every remark he made is to threaten me. Sophie could not help but sneer.

“Why can't I visit Anglandur? Do you own the entire country? Old Mr. Sable, I'm warning you, don't
show up before me. Or else, I'm not even sure what I'm going to do by then,” she retorted impertinently.

“Is that so? You're thinking of killing me, right? Hmph! We'll see if you're capable of such a feat!” Javier
had always been exceptionally haughty his whole life, and he never really treated anyone with respect.

“Try me then! We'll see who is the ultimate loser!”

Sophie couldn't be bothered entertaining the old man. She disconnected the call right after she finished
her sentence.



Furious after being hung up on, Javier tossed his phone aside and snapped, “What a lofty young lady!”

Javier had long since known that he would not be able to keep Sophie under control. That was the
reason why he had always wanted to end her life.

The present Sophie had become even haughtier than she was a few years ago.

Thus, there was no way the old man would allow someone like Sophie to live on.

“Calm down, Boss. We're at Anglandur. There are plenty of ways to make an expendable young lady
disappear.”

“Good. Go ahead and make the necessary arrangements. Don't ever let her leave this place alive,”
instructed Javier, going to extreme lengths.

“Understood, Boss.”

Concurrently, Tristan took note of Sophie's demeanor when she was on the phone just then and
frowned.

“Who was that?” he asked.

“An annoying old man!”

Verily, Sophie despised the old man from the Sable family.

She had never hated someone so much in her entire life.



In most cases, she wouldn't let anyone get to her no matter who it was, but Javier was an exception.
She truly disliked the old man.

“Old Mr. Sable? Nicholas Sable's father?” Tristan did not mean to eavesdrop. It was just that he
happened to be by her side, so he naturally heard the conversation.

“Yes.” Since he had already heard everything, it was pointless for her to deny it.

“How do you get acquainted with him?”

“We aren't acquainted. It's just that we despise each other. He dislikes me, and I don't like him either.”

“How about Nicholas Sable? Do you know him?”

“I've met him before.”

Sophie did not intend to hide anything from Tristan.

“I see.” Tristan did not probe further, even though still oblivious to the many secrets of her past.

Neither of those will affect my feelings for her.

“Don't worry. No one can hurt you when I'm here,” Tristan reassured. So what if it's the Sable family? I
don't give a d*mn about them!

“Mr. Tristan, I don't want to cause you trouble even though we're in a relationship. I can handle all of



these myself.”

“How can you say that? You aren't causing any trouble for me. Even if you do cause trouble, I'm happy
to help you solve your problems. I'm the only person you can cause trouble for. Don't ever trouble
someone else, okay?” Tristan dotingly brushed his finger against her nose.

He was more than happy to be able to help Sophie with her troubles.

“How do you manage to melt my heart every time?” Sophie uttered after giving him a peck on the
cheek.

My heart turned to mush after I met him. I've changed so much that I'm no longer who I used to be in
the past.

At that moment, Ophelia walked out of the study. Her gaze remained fixed on Tristan when she saw the
intimate interaction between the couple.

Felix, who was watching at the side, could not help letting out a sigh.

Ophelia is indeed a talented young lady. She'll surely be successful if she focuses on her career.
However, she's destined to be left with nothing if she stays obsessed with Mr. Tristan.

“Ophelia,” Felix called out.

His voice immediately pulled Ophelia out of her stupor. The look in the woman's eyes appeared rather
awkward at that juncture.



I didn't mean to do this, I swear, but I just can't stop fixing my gaze on Tristan whenever he's around.

“I'll be taking my leave now, Mr. Northley. I shall not disturb Mr. Tristan.” Ophelia left in a hurry after
finishing her sentence as if she was escaping the place.

She had always thought that she had been hiding her feelings well.

Unbeknownst to her, however, the look in her eyes could easily give her feelings away.

Watching her dash off, Felix ordered a housekeeper to give her an umbrella before asking the driver to
send her home.

Mr. Tristan is indeed the root of all problems. He's already in a relationship, but he's still capable of
making the girls around him fall for him. That's pretty impressive.

Even though Felix did not want to disturb the couple, he had no choice as they would be heading back
that night, and Tristan needed to settle some things.

“Mr. Tristan, I—”

Tristan took a glance at Felix.

This Felix... He's getting more and more inconsiderate.

Taking in Tristan's reaction, Felix felt aggrieved.

After a pause, the latter stated, “I would like to apply for a new position, Mr. Tristan.” He's going



overboard! We're here for work, yet he's acting all lovey-dovey with his girlfriend!

“Sure! How about you go to Alendor and keep Winter company?”

He was always open to suggestions and was more than happy to satisfy Felix's request.

Felix was at a loss for words.

He's so mean! Fine. Forget it. I'm no match for him, and there's no way I'll win against him no matter
how hard I try.

Watching their banter, Sophie couldn't help chuckling out of amusement.

Felix is actually quite a cute guy, but I can't let Mr. Tristan know about this. It'll only make him jealous.

Knowing that they had something to discuss, Sophie did not say anything else. Instead, she turned to
leave so as not to disturb them.

“You guys go ahead. I'll make a call in the room.”

After Sophie left, Felix found a spot and sat down.

“Looks like the king has prioritized his love life over his duty,” Felix lamented.

Even the high and mighty Mr. Tristan has succumbed to the temptations of beauty!



“Get to the point!” Tristan snapped.

Words eluded Felix.

How are we supposed to discuss things if he's keeping that attitude up?

Nonetheless, pressured by Tristan's piercing gaze, Felix had no choice but to say what was on his
mind.

“Nicholas has yet to give up.”

“If that's the case, we shall play along. It's not like we can't defeat him anyway,” Tristan remarked as if
he had nothing to fear.

Sure enough, he had been fearless ever since he was a child, even more so at that moment.

“Okay. Also, why do I get the feeling that Nicholas is targeting Sophie? Have you asked Sophie? Were
they somehow related in the past?” Felix asked.

Otherwise, Nicholas wouldn't have taken such a risk to attack them.

Right then, a dangerous glint flashed past Tristan's narrowed eyes.

“What do you mean by that?”

“I don't mean anything. It's just a feeling. I'm just wondering if Sophie is hiding something from you.”



I'm just asking this out of concern for him. Why is he wearing such a scary expression?

“Felix, I trust Sophie. I will never doubt her or question her.”
