Chapter 969
What Are Principles
Lily sneered when she saw Sophie’s name in the list of participants.
Heh! She really doesn’t know her ce! Does she truly think that Fandar is somece she can y
around? How hrious!
Naturally, Sophie took notice of the scornful smirk on Lily’s face.
God, this woman is downright repulsive! Look how she’s abusing others. I reckon that all these young
girls are still virgins. Yet, these big shots can take them home and do whatever they want to them if
they so wished it!
She detested thetter to the core for ruining innocent girls.
All of a sudden, their gazes collided. At once, sparks flew.
Even Bertram could sense the animosity between the two women.
“You must be more careful upon going back today, Ms. Tanner. There’s no saying what Lily might do.”
Jetroinian women are crazy sometimes, especially those like Lily.
“Do you think I’d be afraid of her? Just wait and see! I’ll undoubtedly teach her a lesson and put her in
her ce!”
Thepetition was scheduled for two dayster. Hence, everyone still had time to get ready. In
Sophie’s opinion, no preparations were required. They could have just kicked off thepetition right
away.
When they took their leave at night, Lily saw them out personally.
“How about a meal together tomorrow, Mr. Tristan?” She tantly flirted with Tristan. Regretfully, her
countenance was wholly nauseating.
Ayer of frost nketed Tristan’s eyes.
“I’m very busy these few days, so I’ve got no time for that, Ms. Sanders. I’ll treat you to a meal after the
competition.”
“What are you so busy with? Actually, I really didn’t want to say this, but a beauty like Ms. Tanner truly
isn’t suited to participate in such apetition. You know how rough other people are. If Ms. Tanner
were to join thispetition and end up injured, you’d be heartbroken.”
At the end of the day. Lily felt that Sophie must be as weak as a baby.
“Thank you for the concern, Ms. Sanders, but I don’t need it.” Sophie deliberately took Tristan’s arm.
“Let’s go home. I’m tired.”
“Okay.”
Seeing Tristan being all gentle and considerate toward Sophie yet cold and indifferent toward her, Lily
clenched her hands tightly.
“Please don’t take offense at me, Ms. Tanner. I’m just the kind of person who’s straightforward, and I
only said that for your good. After all, injuries are inevitable in a real fight.”
“Yeah, thank you for the concern.” Not in the mood to continue yakking with Lily, Sophie strode off,
dragging Tristan along.
“This Sophie person is really arrogant, Ms. Sanders! Who does she think she is? She merely has some
beauty. What’s so great about her?”
“Exactly, Ms. Sanders! You must teach her a good lesson during thepetition and put her in her
ce.” Lily’s subordinates immediately ttered her upon glimpsing the look on her face.
“Yeah, I’ll certainly do that. I will have Tristan Lombard for sure!” From the very second Lilyid eyes on
Tristan, she knew that she had irrevocably fallen for the man.
Verily, she was determined to bag him.
Meanwhile, Bertram swung open the car door and held it open for Tristan and Sophie.
Only when they had all settled into the car did he start, “I’ve told you Lily is a wanton, and sure enough,
I’ve been proven right! Look at her gaze when she stared at Mr. Tristan! There was such hunger that
she resembled a wolf regarding its prey, wanting nothing more than to devour him!”
“Indeed, she’s quite the wanton. It was my first time seeing such a shameless woman!” Sophie was not
the type of person who liked to speak ill of others behind their backs, but Lily had irked her to no end.
“I’m no prey!” Tristan protested. How could I possibly allow a wolf to devour me?
“Oh yes, shall we make ns for thepetition two dayster? When all’s said and done, it’s a
crucial matter.” Bertram was still worried.
After all, every single person who would be participating in thepetition was a big shot.
It was wise to determine the leader with such a method, avoiding in-fighting and bloodshed. That was
beneficial to everyone.
“Don’t worry. I’ll train with her these two days,” Tristan voiced. Sophie’s capabilities are remarkable in
the first ce. Coupled with my guidance, there wouldn’t be any problems at all.
“Okay, I can rest assured, then. With Mr. Tristan and Ms. Tanner teaming up, there’s no way we’d ever
lose thepetition!
Upon returning to the base, Bertram started making arrangements for those under hismand.
Sophie and Tristan, on the other hand, went to visit Felix.
“What? Lily Sanders really took a fancy to Uncle Tristan?” Utter regret swamped Ysabelle after she
learned about everything that transpired during the banquet. Gah! I should’ve tagged along for a front-
row seat to things!
“Yeah.” Even then, the look in Lily’s eyes remained vivid in Sophie’s mind, haunting her like a
nightmare.
“What a pity! I should’ve tagged along for a look!” I’ve never seen the female version of a pervert.
Ysabelle continued, “You’re really going to participate in that leadershippetition, Sophie? “Felix
said all those big shots are powerful. Can she truly defeat them when she’s a girl?
“I’ve decided to take up the gauntlet personally to teach Lily a lesson,” said Sophie, her toneced with
determination. I’d have to be dead not to teach her a lesson when she dared to have designs on my
man and even stared at him with such a loathsome look in her eyes!
“Yes, you’re right. She needs to be taught a lesson. Can I go over for a look when youpete? I’m all
too curious about her.”
She’s simply legendary!
“It depends on Felix. Go ahead if he allows it.” Sophie had no objections. She would bepeting that
day, so she would not have time to bother about Ysabelle.
The next day, Tristan woke Sophie up. At the sight of the man by the bed, Sophie was rendered
speechless.
“What is it? Why did you wake me at the crack of dawn?” Truly, she could not fathom it. To train.”
She’s skilled atbat, but she still needs to train. Many people are in thepetition. There’s no
telling the tricks they might y.
“But I don’t want to train. I really don’t feel like it.” Sophie felt that she could handle all those situations
presently.
It was Tristan’s first time seeing her sozy, and he found it very much novel.
“Okay, then. Forget it since you don’t want to train.” He had no principles before her, giving nary a care
as long as she was happy.
In the meantime, Bertram waited outside for the couple to turn up for training.
Unfortunately, there was no sign of them both even after he had waited for the whole morning.
“Didn’t you say that Mr. Tristan and Ms. Tanner will being over for training, Bert?”
Everyone had been looking forward to it the entire morning, but the couple was nowhere in sight.
Bertram scratched his head. Didn’t we agree to train today? Mr. Tristan isn’t a person who’d go back on
his word.
Just then, Tristan and Sophie appeared.

“Didn’t you say you were going to train this morning, Mr. Tristan?” Bertram asked, mustering his
courage.
“My wife said she didn’t want to train, so we skipped training.”
