“No matter what, you must steer clear of Nicholas,” Sophie warned.
Nicholas was a psycho who would do anything to achieve his goals. He was not an easy person to deal
with.
“Okay. Don't worry. I don't think he has time to capture me now. However, he won't give up that easily.
You have to watch out too.”
No matter what Nicholas did, his sole purpose was to force Sophie to show her face.
“All right, I got it. Don't worry about me. It's almost time now. You should go to bed.”
Arius' line of work was a matter of life and death. He had to rest well.
“Okay. Remember to call me. Don't make me worry,” Arius reminded Sophie. Gosh, I sound like her
mom!
Later that night, Sophie and Tristan went back to visit Josiah.
Josiah's mood instantly improved when he saw her.
“Soph, I haven't asked you how you did in the exam. Tell me, how was it?”
Like other parents, Josiah was concerned about Sophie's results in the university entrance exam.
“It should be pretty good,” she replied.
Josiah finally heaved a sigh of relief after hearing that.
“Oh, Soph! Listen to me. You still have to perform well at university. Tanny, you must wait for her.”
Looking at Sophie tenderly, Tristan replied, “Don't worry, Old Mr. Tanner. No matter how long, I'll always
wait for her.”
This girl is worth waiting for.
Josiah was glad to see the expression on Tristan's face.
Seeing their interaction, Willow felt as if she was an outsider to the family. She looked out of place
since Sophie returned.
Thinking of Clayton's promise, Willow clenched her fists.
If this is the only way I can get everything I want, then I have no choice but to do it. Who can blame me
for that?
Seeing Willow's pale expression, Charmaine asked worriedly, “What's the matter, Willa? Are you
feeling unwell?”
“Don't worry, Mom. I'm fine.”
With that, Willow got up and headed upstairs.
She did not dare to look Sophie in the eye as she felt that her younger sister could see through
everything.
I'm a goner if she figures out what I'm planning to do.
“By the way, when can I meet up with your family? You two can confirm your relationship and get
engaged first!” Josiah spoke up out of the blue.
At his age, he could not predict what might happen the following day.
Josiah wanted to give Sophie a guarantee.
“Engagement?” Sophie's jaw dropped when she heard that.
How troublesome! Do I have to get engaged now?
“Don't worry, Grandpa. I'm very confident in myself. Besides, if a man is to have a change of heart, not
even marriage can stop him, let alone an engagement!” Sophie replied.
She knew Josiah was trying to give her a guarantee.
Nevertheless, she did not need it.
Without replying to Sophie, Josiah turned to Tristan. “Tanny, is my request too much?”
Tristan beamed at him and replied, “It's fine, Old Mr. Tanner. I don't mind if you want to hold an
engagement ceremony.”
As long as it was a request made by Josiah, Tristan would be willing to do anything.
Moreover, this request was not too excessive.
Sophie frowned upon hearing that.
Why are they making a big deal out of an engagement ceremony?
“Look at Tanny. He has no problem with that. You shouldn't oppose this idea either,” Josiah said with a
grin.
The most important thing for Josiah was that Tristan treated Sophie well.
“Grandpa, I don't want any engagement ceremony. I still have to go to university! You're trying to make
everyone know about me. How can I face others when I go to university?” Sophie protested.
Tristan is such a well-known figure. I don't want to become that famous too!
“You're right. That was inconsiderate of me,” Josiah admitted.
Just then, more than a dozen military vehicles stopped at the entrance of the Tanner residence. Then,
an armed officer got out of one of the vehicles.
The housekeepers were scared witless when they saw the scene.
“Oh my gosh! What on earth is going on? Why are there so many people?”
“That's right! We've always been law-abiding citizens!”
“Enough with the chatter! Hurry and inform Morgan about this!” The housekeepers were in no place to
handle the current situation.
When Morgan came over, he was also shocked by the scene even though he had been on the
battlefield in the past.
Opening the door, he walked up to the officer.
“Excuse me. Who are you looking for?” Morgan tried his best to stay calm.
“Is this Ms. Sophie Tanner's house?”
“Yes. Why are you looking for Ms. Sophie?” When Morgan heard that it was related to Sophie, he
became even more worried.
Ms. Sophie has been acting strange since she returned from Horington. Who did she offend this time?
“Our leader would like to meet Ms. Tanner. Is she free now?”
“Did Ms. Sophie do something wrong?” Morgan was still not at ease.
“Oh, it's nothing. Our leader just wants to meet Ms. Tanner. Please lead the way,” the officer replied
politely.
Left with no choice, Morgan could only open the door and allow one of the cars to enter the residence.
When the man got out of the car, everyone was flabbergasted.
Many of them had seen this leader in the news. They never expected to meet him in person that day.
Yale came out after hearing the commotion outside. His legs turned to jelly when he saw the bigwig.
The great leader's secretary immediately informed, “Everyone, please refrain from taking pictures.”
Upon hearing that, the onlookers immediately nodded. They would not dare to disobey the order.
Yale was still in a daze. “Mr. Lar—”
Before Yale could finish his words, the secretary, who was standing beside the great leader, asked, “Is
Sophie here?”
Yale immediately nodded.
There was only one thing on his mind at that moment. I must catch this big fish.
Yale led the great leader inside.
The great leader was surprised to see Tristan there. He naturally knew who the latter was.
Tristan frowned upon seeing the new guest. What is he doing here?
“Dad, the great leader is here for Sophie,” informed Yale.
Josiah had thought the great leader was there to meet Tristan. He didn't expect such an important
figure to come to look for Sophie.
“Soph, what's going on?” Josiah probed.
Sophie narrowed her eyes. This must be the favor that Eustace has asked for!
“I'm Sophie Tanner. How can I help you?” Sophie introduced herself. It makes no sense for Eustace to
tell him about me!
“Mr. Tristan.” Despite his status as the great leader, the man was still very polite to Tristan.
“May I know what is your relationship with Sophie?”
Tristan frowned at that question.
What's my relationship with her? What sort of question is that?
“I'm her boyfriend,” Tristan said straightforwardly.
The great leader laughed awkwardly at that response.
“Ms. Sophie, I heard you took the university entrance exam this year. The results are not out yet. What
are you planning to do in the future?” the great leader asked. She's undoubtedly a talent. If she joins
us, I may have finally found my successor.
Sophie answered honestly, “I haven't thought about it yet.”
