Changing Only For Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 45

Chapter 45 Drinks Her Milkshake

“Mister, you’ve misunderstood me! I never intend to slander Ms. Tanner!” Matilda tried to speak up for herself, her hands trembling uncontrollably.

Tristan snickered. “I don’t give a heck whether you intend to do so or not. I’m here to enlighten all of you today. You shouldn’t have gotten on my nerves by slandering Sophie.”

“Mister!” Matilda was about to grab Tristan’s arm. However, she retracted her hand when Tristan shot her a frigid glance.

Standing rooted to the ground, she could only fasten her gaze on Tristan and Felix’s retreating figures.

Right that instant, Lenora advanced toward her mother and was astounded by how the latter’s face was as white as a sheet. “Mom, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell? How about I call the driver to send you to the hospital now?”

In response, Matilda gave her daughter a tight slap.

Caught off guard, Lenora covered her cheek and stared at her mother in disbelief.

“Mom, what’s the matter with you? Why did you slap me?” she squealed. That was the first time her mother slapped her.

“Plead with Sophie now so she won’t sue me!” Matilda’s voice was quivering. My goodness! Sean Burton’s relentlessness is known to everyone. The Wagner family will be doomed if he helps Sophie Tanner to file a lawsuit against us!

“Mom, there’s nothing to be scared of. Sophie is like the Tanner family’s abandoned child, and they give no hoots about her. Even if she’s still considered the third heiress of the Tanner family, their family is obviously incomparable to ours!” Lenora refuted matter-of-factly.

“Kneel and apologize to her! Don’t you know you’ve put me in deep water by provoking her?” Matilda fumed. Never had she expected that she would indirectly step on the toes of such an omnipotent man.

After Tristan and Felix stepped out of the classroom, the latter gave Ysabelle a call.

They headed straight to the milkshake bar after knowing that Ysabelle and Sophie were there.

“Mr. Tristan, I’m impressed by your beloved Ms. Tanner’s excellent result! Didn’t the others claim that her results are poor? Well, I’ll be d*mned! She’s in second place in the whole grade!” Felix gasped admiringly.

In an instant, Tristan’s face lit up with a sense of pride. Yeah… She’s mine! Sooner or later, she will be mine!

Shortly after, the two men reached the milkshake bar adjacent to Jipsdale Premier High. It looked different from the usual milkshake bar. Since the students of Jipsdale Premier High were from wealthy families, the place was lavishly designed with booth seating.

The moment Tristan and Felix stepped into it, they caught a glimpse of Sophie and Ysabelle sitting at the table next to the window. Thus, the duo walked toward them at once.

Tristan took the seat next to Sophie, whereas Felix took the one next to Ysabelle.

“Thanks a lot for standing up for me just now. Let me buy you both milkshakes,” Sophie thanked Tristan sincerely.

“Sure.” The next second, he took a sip of Sophie’s milkshake despite his dislike for sweetness.

Astounded, the others gazed at him in bewilderment.

“Uncle Tristan, aren’t you a germophobe? You never use anything touched by others, don’t you? Aren’t you aware that this is Sophie’s milkshake?” Ysabelle asked quizzically. She could not fathom why Tristan had been acting weirdly lately.

Felix, who was seated next to her, could not resist laughing discreetly. Was Mr. Tristan trying to kiss Ms. Tanner indirectly? Ha! It never occurred to me that the assertive Mr. Tristan could be so adorable!

Meanwhile, Sophie was staring at Tristan doubtfully, too.

Tristan responded nonchalantly, “Sorry for that. I’ll order another glass for you.”

“Sophie, you’re incredible to be in second place in the whole grade!” Felix complimented, giving her a thumbs up. After all, it was no mere feat for her to have such achievement at Jipsdale Premier High.

“It’s nothing,” Sophie responded humbly. Deep down, she really did not feel that it was something special.

“Yeah! Soph is amazing!” Ysabelle echoed proudly.

At the same time, Tristan ordered another milkshake for Sophie.

Shortly after, the waiter served them two glasses of milkshakes.

Felix had barely taken a few sips of it before putting it aside. He could not talk himself into savoring the young girls’ favorite drink.
