Changing Only For Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 489

Chapter 489

The Zales family was considered one of the big shots in Jipsdale.
The Zales family was considered one of the big shots in Jipsdale.

Yet, they were uprooted from Jipsdale within a matter of days. All Clayton's brother could do was rush to the hospital.

“Mr. Tristan, we've learned our lesson! Whatever Clayton did is his to bear and has nothing to do with me! I beg of you. Please spare me!”

“Who let him in?”

Tristan fell into a sour mood the moment he saw Clayton's brother, for it reminded him of Clayton himself.

Clayton's brother knelt on the floor immediately.

“Mr. Tristan, as long as you spare me, I will take my family and leave Jipsdale. We promise we will never return ever again!”

By that point, the Zales family's status in Jipsdale had been utterly destroyed by the man before him.

In spite of that, he didn't even dare to hate Tristan.

All he prayed for at that moment was to be alive and well.

“Leave.”

It was Sophie who spoke.

Clayton's brother heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing Sophie's demand. He bowed at them right away before leaving the ward.

Tristan had no objections to that. If Sophie was the one who gave the word, he would oblige.

“Why aren't you asking me my reason for letting him go?”

Sophie was curious.

“As I had said, I will support whatever decision you make, so there's nothing to ask.” He wouldn't have objected to it anyway.

Sophie was speechless.

She didn't know what to say in response to what he had just told her.

“I just felt that Clayton's brother wasn't involved in what happened, so he hasn't done anything wrong.”

Those who had committed crimes must be punished.

Since he hadn't done any wrong, they should just ignore him.

Charles and Sean overheard their conversation while approaching them.

“Sophie, were you behind what happened to the Zales family?” Charles asked directly. You can never be certain with this girl!

In any case, the Zales family was considered rather established in Jipsdale.

Yet, she was able to uproot them with such ease.

“What? I thought you two were behind this!” Tristan blurted. My girl has been keeping me company in the hospital the whole time. How could she have had the time for that?

Charles and Sean shook their heads.

All three men turned to look at Sophie.

Fine! I get it!

Sophie realized she had to say something.

“I just taught him a small lesson for trying to take your life. I never expected him to go to such extremities!”

All she did was hand evidence of his crimes to the police and nothing else.

Charles didn't respond to that, for he had no words.

“Mr. Tristan, I seriously have to thank you for sending Winter to Alendor! Winter wouldn't have been able to hold a candle against her!”

After everything, he figured it would be the safest for Winter to be in Alendor.

All the while, Sophie stared at them with an innocent look.

“What do you mean by that? I only taught him a small lesson. I hadn't even gone to him in person!”

I don't have time to go in person because I've been busy looking after Tristan these past few days.

Sean was at a loss for words.

“Sophie, you can tell me if I did anything to offend you in the future. I'll make sure to offer you a heartfelt apology!”

This girl is savage!

Sophie continued to stare at Tristan innocently.

“Tristan, do you also think I had gone overboard? I can't just let others walk all over you and do nothing, can I?” she questioned. What I did wasn't all that bad!

Both Charles and Sean were utterly stumped.

Walk all over Tristan? Okay, I suppose we should refrain from joking around with Tristan from now on, lest she gets rid of us somehow while assuming we're walking all over him.

Tristan couldn't help but laugh at Sophie's reactions.

He held her hand to pull her to him and wrapped his arm around her waist.

“Not at all. You didn't go overboard. You're fine as you are, and I'm satisfied with it!” He had always known that she wasn't just some girl, but it didn't matter. He liked her nonetheless.

Neither Charles nor Sean knew how they should react to that.

Fine. Mr. Tristan is currently infatuated with Sophie, so nothing anybody else says would matter to him now.

“Say, what's up with you two? Why would you let Sophie deal with something like punishing the Zales family alone?”

Can't you two do a little more?

“I would gladly teach the Zales family a lesson too, but she had made her move before I could do anything! I wasn't even given a chance!” Charles refuted. What could I have done? Are you going to blame me for not taking action in time?

“The Zales family was already in trouble when I wanted to make a move.” Sean was also speechless. We can't even match Sophie's speed.

Tristan remained silent.

Instead of berating them, he glared at them without explicitly voicing his dissatisfaction.

Charles and Sean exchanged glances.

“Fine, you can leave the rest to us! Sophie, your only task now is to keep Mr. Tristan company!” Charles said.

“Okay, I'll leave the rest to you!”

She considered the Zales family's debt repaid.

Although she was still furious about the incident, she didn't think she should get rid of all other members of the Zales family after their patriarch was done for.

She wasn't that cruel.

The incident only concerned specific individuals, so she wouldn't get anyone unrelated involved.

When the three men were the only ones left in the ward, Charles advised, “Mr. Tristan, you have to be more attentive in the future. Your wife is absolutely terrifying. I have no doubt that she would make minced meat out of you if you betray her!”

Sophie has such a mysterious background that our investigations have failed to uncover it.

Tristan gave him a side glance.

“Say, Charles. What's up with you? Why are you always hoping for the worst for me?” he questioned. How could I ever betray Sophie?

“Ignore this fool, Mr. Tristan. Sophie would be the one to dump you instead of the other way around. You would never think to do such a thing!”

Tristan gave no response, for he was tired of speaking to them.

Are they really my sworn brothers? Just listen to what they're saying!

Sean wasn't too perturbed when he noticed Tristan's scowl.

“Anyway, we won't be disturbing you any further now that we've got this dealt with. We're going to visit Felix!”

“Good. Time for you two to go! Don't stay here and intrude on my time with Sophie!” replied Tristan without hesitation.

“You...” Charles wished he could beat the crap out of Tristan when he witnessed the latter's attitude, but that wouldn't be possible given their busy schedules for the following days.

Is he seriously dissatisfied?

Sean pulled Charles up to his feet.

“Let's go! You can't win against him even when he's injured. Besides, he also has Sophie! You would die of embarrassment if she were the one to defeat you!”

“Sean, what the heck are you even talking about? Are you implying that I can't win a woman in a brawl? Are you aware that you're humiliating me?”

“Consider this as him telling you the truth,” said Tristan.

“Are you looking down on me, Mr. Tristan? While I might not be able to win against you and Sean, I can't possibly lose to a girl!”

“Why don't we start a match to check?” Sophie suggested right after stepping into the ward upon hearing Charles' complaint.

Getting an answer is easy! We can always start a match!
