Changing Only For Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 427

Chapter 427

“What are you doing here?” Tristan asked.

When he saw Christopher Olsen, the chancellor, he figured out Sophie was a high achiever on the university entrance exam.

Every year, Christopher would personally visit the houses of high achievers and attempt to recruit them to Jipsdale University.

“You know what? Never mind. I don't have time to catch up with you,” Christopher said.

He then ignored Tristan and shifted his gaze toward Sophie. Smiling, he uttered, “Greetings, Sophie. My name is Christopher Olsen. I am the chancellor of Jipsdale University. I understand that the scores for the university entrance exam have been released. Have you ever considered enrolling in Jipsdale University?”

Winston was flabbergasted at his words.

What? What's going on here? The chancellor of Jipsdale University is now in the Tanner residence to recruit Sophie in person? She must've done really well on the exam, then!

Josiah was overjoyed when he heard Christopher's words as well.

I knew it! Sophie is a genius! She would never let me down.

Sophie begin, “I might—”

“You don't have to give me an answer right away, Sophie. I will grant you the freedom to pick any course you like if you join Jipsdale University. I'm sure you're well aware of Jipsdale University's standing here in Chanaea, right? Well? What do you think of this arrangement?” Christopher interrupted. He was really worried that she would choose some other university.

Winston's jaw dropped in shock.

She gets to pick any course of study she wants? Isn't that going a little too far?

“Will you please help me out here, Mr. Tristan?” Since Christopher and Tristan had known each other for a long time, the former was hoping that he would lend a hand.

“Mr. Tristan?” Winston muttered.

Is Mr. Olsen referring to the legendary Mr. Tristan, the man we've heard rumors about, but none of us have ever seen in person? Oh, my goodness! I can't believe I said all those horrible things in front of him earlier!

Winston was losing his mind as he slowly realized what was going on. Willow, however, was displeased when she saw him freaking out.

What's wrong with him? He came here in the first place because my fiancé is Clayton, didn't he? Why is he getting so worked up after finding out that Sophie is dating Mr. Tristan? What's so great about that? Sophie is an insignificant person to Mr. Tristan! He'll dump her as soon as he gets tired of toying with her, and she'll be a nobody.

“Sorry, but my words do not hold weight before my girlfriend. In our relationship, she's the one who calls the shots,” Tristan replied smilingly.

Both Sophie and Christopher felt speechless when they heard that.

The chancellor, especially, was annoyed. What the heck is going on with this brat? Does he have to react like that when all I did was ask him for a small favor?

Winston kept quiet as he thought about how he would make up for his rude behavior earlier.

“I'm serious, Sophie. Jipsdale University is the best university in all of Chanaea. You won't regret choosing to join us!” Christopher declared confidently.

“Jipsdale University is the best in Chanaea? Says who? Have you forgotten about Capston University?” said Joseph Newman, the chancellor of Capston University, as he showed up with a few of his vice-chancellors.

They, too, were eager to recruit talented students like Sophie into their university, which ranked first in the country.

Other universities wanted to recruit her as well, but alas, they were no match for the two universities.

Christopher let out a huge sigh when he saw his rival.

“What the heck is your problem? Why are you following me everywhere I go? Do you find it fun?” he exclaimed in exasperation.

Winston was utterly dumbstruck at that point.

The chancellors of the two most prestigious universities in Chanaea are here in person? I never thought something like this was possible! Just how high is Sophie's score on the university entrance exam?

“I did not follow you here!” Joseph immediately retorted. Turning to Sophie, he said, “Sophie, I arrived a little late because I was still in Anglandur when I received the news, but I came over right away! I hope this shows my sincerity in inviting you to join Capston University.”

The young lady darted a glance between the two chancellors.

In truth, she was not too happy about the situation at hand. “Why would you two come all the way to my house? I need some more time to consider which university to attend, so please head back for now!”

“Mr. Olsen, Mr. Newman, Sophie's score is hidden, right? Just how did she do in the exam?” Josiah was more concerned about that matter.

“Oh, Sophie's amazing! With a score of seven hundred forty-nine, she has the highest score among all the candidates for the past and current university entrance exams! The only subject she didn't get a full score for was Chanaean. The examiner was a perfectionist and decided to deduct one mark from her paper,” Christopher replied.

He was clearly dissatisfied with the examiner's decision as he believed Sophie's answers deserved a perfect score.

Yale was frozen in shock. Even Caleb didn't score that high when he took the university entrance exam! Sophie truly is a genius! I can't believe I looked down on her before! I really regret my past actions!

Josiah beamed with pride and satisfaction, which was something he had not done in a very long time.

“As expected of my granddaughter!” he exclaimed proudly.

“Yeah, Sophie is the most talented student I have ever seen! With the exception of Chanaean, she got perfect scores in every other subject! This is the first time I've seen a student perform so well on the university entrance exam!” Christopher agreed.

Josiah's eyes were sparkling with delight. “I knew Sophie would never let me down!”

“You can rest easy knowing that the Tanner family is in good hands, Old Mr. Tanner.” The Tanner family could entrust Sophie with Tanner Group in the future.

“You should come to Capston University, Sophie! I'll let you pick any course of study you prefer if you join us!” Joseph expressed his stance as well.

Since he was only a little late to the party, he had no intention of backing down without a fight.

With high stakes riding on Sophie's decision, he had to give it his all to persuade her.

As Sophie had yet to make up her mind on which university to enroll in, she said, “I acknowledge the offers that you are both making, and I will consider them thoroughly.”

“Well, I think you two should head back first, Mr. Olsen and Mr. Newman,” Tristan piped up. He, too, felt they were overstaying their welcome.

“All right. I'll be taking my leave now. Don't put pressure on yourself. You won't go wrong with choosing Jipsdale University. Perhaps you could visit our campus to get a better idea of what it's like over there. I assure you—the environment at our university is first class!” Christopher implored on his way out.

“You have to consider Capston University, Sophie! If you choose to attend our university, I'll let you stay in the condominium for doctoral students! That way, you can focus on research wholly!” Joseph, too, continued his attempt to win Sophie over.

“I'll buy you a house!” Christopher was going all out in order to compete against Joseph in getting talents to Jipsdale University.

“Mr. Olsen...” The vice-chancellor standing next to him was utterly dumbfounded.

I admit that Sophie is an incredibly talented individual and all, but there's no need to go that far for her! A house in Jipsdale would cost a bomb! Only professors at Jipsdale University are entitled to receive such benefits!

“I mean what I said, Sophie. Please think long and hard about this. Anyway, we'll get going now. Let's have a meal together sometime!”
