Pursuing Her Chapter 556

Charles felt a shiver down his spine when he saw the way Tristan was glaring at him.

"I-I-I was just joking, Mr. Tristan! Even if I did like Sophie, there's no guarantee that she'll like me back!"
he explained in an attempt to save himself from Tristan's wrath.

"Correction, I will never like you because you're not my type at all," Sophie said.

Ouch! That hurt! Am I really that bad? Is Sophie always that mean to others?

"My heart is broken again, Sean! Please comfort me!" Charles pleaded.

"No, I don't think so. Your heart seems perfectly fine to me!" Sean replied. That's what he gets for
breaking so many girls' hearts!

Ysabelle couldn't help but chuckle as she said, "See, Charles? This is payback for all those girls' hearts
you've broken in the past! One day, you'll meet a girl who will counter playboys like you!"

Charles shook his head in response. "No, that day will never come! I would never give up an entire
forest for a single tree!"

There are plenty of beautiful women out there, so why should I limit myself to just one? Isn't it better to
go around sampling them all?

Ysabelle rolled her eyes at him. "Honestly, I'm really looking forward to seeing you meet your match."

"As I said, there will never be such a person because I won't allow that to happen!" Charles repeated



himself.

He didn't believe in retribution for one's actions.

Jennifer's eyes were filled with disdain when she saw the group fawning over Sophie.

What's wrong with them? They're clearly knowledgeable people, so why would they believe that
Sophie's present is the real deal? Do they take us all for fools? Sophie does not belong in this circle!
The problem is, how can I get rid of her for good? I can't stand the sight of her!

Minerva, who was standing beside her the whole time, could see that she was very upset.

"There's no need to stress yourself out, Jennifer. That thing has got to be a fake. She'll become the
laughingstock of Jipsdale once those appraisers confirm that it is fake. On top of that, I think you should
just forget about her. You two aren't related at all, and she has always been calm and composed about
everything. You'll come off as the loser if you take her too seriously."

Jennifer made it this far because she's excellent in almost every aspect, but she started changing ever
since Sophie showed up...

"Shut up, Minerva!" Jennifer snapped at her impatiently.

Minerva pouted and looked away in response.

Being Jennifer's friend, she always had Jennifer's best interests in mind when giving advice or helping
her out. However, Jennifer was so stubborn that she refused to listen to any of Minerva's advice, so
there wasn't much Minerva could do.



Meanwhile, the Chief of the Bureau of Cultural Affairs had arrived at a conclusion regarding the item's
authenticity.

"Old Mr. Lombard, we have confirmed that this item is indeed the real deal. How did you find it? Could
you hand it over to the country?" the chief asked excitedly.

"Really? Are you sure that this is authentic?" Although William was hoping for it to be authentic, he still
got excited when he heard the chief say it.

The chief nodded as he replied, "That's right. These men are the best appraisers in the country, and
they have all confirmed that it is indeed authentic. There's no way they'd be wrong about this. I know
you've spent many years looking for this, but it means a lot to the country. Would you be willing to hand
it over?"

Everyone at the scene fell silent after hearing that.

What? Is that really authentic? This isn't a joke or something, right?

Naturally, Jennifer took it the worst out of everyone else. She knew just how badly William wanted to
get his hands on that national treasure, but she wasn't able to get it for him.

The diamond she spent a lot of money on was the best she could manage, but it paled in comparison
to Sophie's gift.

Just like that, the diamond she presented felt like it had become worthless all of a sudden.



That was probably the worst feeling she had ever experienced.

Minerva had thought about comforting her, but she held her tongue when she recalled Jennifer's
stubborn attitude from earlier. She knew it was pointless to say anything if Jennifer wouldn't listen.

Unless Jennifer gives up on this herself, nothing I say will change her mind.

Tristan held Sophie's hand and asked, "How did you pull this off? I didn't know you were capable of
something like this!"

"Oh, I just had a few of my friends get it for me!" Sophie replied casually.

Although she made no mention of the price she had to pay, Tristan was able to figure that out on his
own.

There's no such thing as a free lunch. Given how valuable this national treasure is, she must've traded
something of an equally high value for it. Why did she have to make such a huge sacrifice for me?

"I told you that you don't have to do anything, didn't I? All that matters is my feelings for you. What
anyone else feels about you is irrelevant."

Not wanting him to worry about her, Sophie replied, "You're overthinking it, Tristan. Getting this really
was a piece of cake. Besides, you're not the only one with awesome friends!"

While some people may find this task impossible, some can easily accomplish it.



Sean, Charles, Felix, and Ysabelle felt speechless when they heard that.

Okay, then... It looks like we're just not capable enough to have such powerful friends...

After giving it some serious thought, William decided to hand the national treasure over to the country.

"As you all know, I have indeed spent many years searching for this treasure with the intention of
handing it over to the country. Now that I have found it, at last, it's only natural for me to do so."

The chief was close to tears as he said, "You really are a hero, Old Mr. Lombard. I doubt anyone else
would've been willing to hand it over like this. I thank you on behalf of the country. Also, I'll be sure to
mention your name when reporting about this. You can rest assured that the country will reward you
properly for this!"

I had a chance to be promoted to a much higher rank, but I remained in my current rank in order to look
for this treasure. Who would've thought I'd be able to find it someday?

The Chief of the Bureau of Cultural Affairs then stepped aside to make a phone call.

About ten minutes later, a group of soldiers arrived to retrieve the treasure.

Everyone at the scene was so shocked that they would probably lose sleep that night.

Since the military had gotten involved, they had no choice but to believe that the national treasure was
authentic.



But how did Sophie pull off such an amazing stunt? Isn't she just a university student with a pretty
face? Just how many more secrets does she hold?
