Chapter 100 Take Off Your Clothes
“No need to do that. Don’t look into it!” That was Sophie’s private matter, and if she did not want to talk about it, he would not look into it.
“Why, Mr. Tristan!” The man was baffled. It was something that could be easily solved, but Tristan had chosen to drink away his sorrows instead.
“It’s basic respect. I don’t want to learn about her past from anyone else but her. I want her to tell me about it herself.”
If I can’t even earn her trust, what right do I have to be with her?
“Okay. Anyway, I won’t be able to hold myself back if Belle has someone else in her heart.”
At that, Charles said, “Did you think that you’re the same as Mr. Tristan?”
Sean replied, “Absolutely not.”
“Sh*t, you’re all bullying me. Am I that easy of a target?” Felix was speechless. He wanted to leave them—he wanted to leave that group of people who were all mean to him.
Meanwhile, Yale brought Willow to the Laird residence, hoping that Mason would be able to help him take back everything that belonged to him.
“Mason, I’ve only come because I’ve run out of options. The shareholders’ meeting is about to start. I hope you can help me out.”
After hearing his explanation, Mason finally realized what was happening.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Tanner. I know what you mean. I have something to settle right now, so I’ll be leaving first.”
The etiquettes that had been instilled in Mason since young made him a gentleman, and he was polite to everyone he talked to.
Upon hearing Mason’s reassurance, Yale became at ease.
“Mason, I knew that you’d help me out. All right, go ahead. I won’t disturb you any further,” Yale replied smilingly.
When Willow saw Mason heading out, she hurried over to him.
“Thank you, Mason.” Willow felt that Mason had agreed to her father’s request because of her.
However, Mason did not even spare her a glance.
“Is something else the matter?”
At that, Willow gripped the hem of her skirt, unsure of what to say to him.
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll be off now.”
Mason walked off, leaving Willow with tearful eyes.
All of a sudden, Willow felt discouraged. Will Mason really get engaged with me?
At Jipsdale Premier High, Willow went to look for Sophie after class.
The moment Ysabelle saw Willow, she turned sullen. Why is she appearing in our line of sight again?
“Willow, don’t you know when to quit? Soph doesn’t want to entertain you, so scram aside!”
There are always people who keep coming back despite the obvious signs of rejection. They’re maddening!
“Sophie, Mason, he…”
“Willow, you’re really annoying. Didn’t I tell you to stay out of my sight? Whatever happens to you and Mason is your business and yours alone. It has nothing to do with me, and I’m not at all curious about what is happening between the two of you.”
Sophie decided to make herself clear one last time to stop Willow from coming to her again.
“Is that so? I hope that’s the case. Sophie, don’t be a b*tch and appear anywhere near Mason.”
Hearing that, Ysabelle could not hold herself back anymore.
“Willow, you better filter your words before you say them, or else you’re going to get it from me,” Ysabelle snarled as she stood in front of Sophie and shielded her.
Willow sneered.
“You look stupid,” Willow insulted.
Ysabelle only became angrier.
“Willow, believe it or not, but I’m going to tear that mouth off your face,” Ysabelle snapped, about to go mad because of Willow.
“No one’s stupider than you, Willow. You’re here talking nonsense to me because you’re not confident about winning Mason over. You’re scared that he won’t love you. That’s why you’ve come to me.”
Sophie had hit the nail on the head, and it infuriated Willow.
“What’s the matter? Are you still hoping to return to Mason’s side?” Willow bellowed.
Mason’s mine, and no one can take him away from me!
“Am I going to steal him from you?” Sophie laughed, a tinge of nonchalance and slyness apparent in her voice. “Do I need to steal him from you? I don’t even need to do anything, but Mason will do everything he can to get my forgiveness.”
At that, Willow turned so furious she could not even come up with a response.
That was how it was in the past too. Sophie could easily gain everyone’s attention without needing to do anything.
On the other hand, no matter how hard Willow tried, she would still end up with nothing.
Life was simply unfair.
