Louisa threw a glance at Willow who was in a daze.
“Willow, isn't that your sister? She's more of a troublemaker than she was five years ago!”
“Yea.” Willow felt lousy. Since they were children, it had always been like that. People always praised Sophie for her beauty. As for her, she would only be Sophie's accessory.
Louisa became interested. “Who is that man she's with? He's so handsome.”
“I have no idea.” Willow also wanted to know the identity of that man and how he was related to Sophie. It was Willow's goal to marry into a wealthy family, but she did not want her younger sister to surpass her in that aspect.
“I'll go back home now. My driver is still waiting for me.”
After bidding Louisa goodbye, Willow got into the Mercedes-Benz.
However, with the thought of Sophie sitting in the Lamborghini that cost a few million, Willow felt depressed. Other than having a pretty face, there was nothing so great about Sophie!
Willow was better than her younger sister in every aspect except for her looks, and she felt extremely inferior.
Once they had arrived at their destination, Tristan asked Sophie, “Will you be going back to Wisteria Apartments tonight?”
“Yes.” She disliked staying at the Tanner residence. The only reason she agreed to come for dinner was because of her grandpa.
“Once you are done, let me know. I'll come and pick you up.”
“There's no need. I can go back on my own.”
“Enough. Go on in!” Tristan refused to hear any more of it.
Sophie had no choice but to nod in agreement. She knew Tristan did it out of concern, and to be honest, she did not mind being near him.
Tristan drove off in the silver Lamborghini.
On the way to the Tanner residence, Willow saw the Lamborghini and quickly wound down her window to catch a glimpse of the man driving it.
However, the car windows of the Lamborghini were tinted for privacy, so she failed to see anything.
Once the black Mercedes-Benz arrived at the Tanner residence, Willow got out of the car and saw Sophie outside the house too.
“Who was that man just now?”
Sophie could not be bothered with Willow. The moment the housekeeper heard the voices, she opened the door. Sophie walked in immediately.
Seeing that Sophie was giving her cold shoulders, Willow was furious.
“Sophie, what kind of attitude is that? I'm your older sister, and I don't want you to get cheated on by others. Nowadays, there are many men who rent luxurious cars in an attempt to fool young girls. Don't fall for it.”
“Thank you for your concern, but I can take care of myself.” If that advice had come from someone else, Sophie might have believed them.
Since it came from Willow, it meant nothing but a joke to her.
Willow was the only person in the whole world who wished her ill.
As the two sisters entered the house, they saw that Josiah was already downstairs. Their dad had also just returned home.
“Dad, you're back.” When Willow saw her father, she got emotional and rushed up to embrace him. “Dad, I missed you so much.”
Yale returned the hug.
“How is your study? You must work hard now that the university entrance exam is coming soon.”
“Dad, don't worry! I'm always one of the top five students in my level. I will certainly get into Jipsdale University.” Knowing that her father preferred intelligent children, Willow had always been very hardworking.
Obviously, Yale noticed Sophie too, but she had been a disgrace to him five years ago. He was truly unhappy to see her.
“What are you doing back here? Haven't you humiliated yourself enough?”
Yale was a doting and loving father to Willow. On the contrary, he was extremely harsh with Sophie and treated her with disdain.
Josiah roared in anger, “I'm the one who allowed Soph to come here. What's wrong? Do I have no say in this family?” He could not believe the way they treated Sophie when he was still alive. Imagine when I am dead and gone!
Sophie walked up to Josiah and rubbed his back to calm him down.
I'm also his granddaughter. Why doesn't he give me anything? Why does Grandpa always favor Sophie since we were young? Haven't I done enough over the years?
I have worked so hard to become a socialite just to please him. But, the moment Sophie appears, everything is as just before. Nothing has changed. Why?
