    Chapter 177 Let Us Go At It Again


    Whitlea took out a cigarette from the cigarette box. At once, Franky snagged a lighter and lit the


    cigarette for her.


    “Since Sophie is so stubborn, bring a few men over to put the fear of God into her.” Whitlea’s father


    was part of the underworld, so she emanated an ominous aura as well.


    “Sure! Don’t worry, Mdm. Dixon. I’ll definitely teach her a lesson so that she’ll never dare to appear


    before Mr. Dixon again!”


    Franky immediately seized that opportunity. As long as I yank Andy down, the position of principal for


    Jipsdale Premier High will be mine!


    For him to be the principal of Jipsdale Premier High, he would undoubtedly require Whitlea’s help.


    As such, he had been monitoring Bailey’s every move at school, just to get close to the woman.


    “Go!” Whitlea’s expectations toward Bailey had always been sky-high, and he had really disappointed


    her recently.


    After the self-study session at night, Sophie and Ysabelle exited the ssroom together. Ysabelle had


    been downcast these days, for her father had been restricting her too much.


    “Soph, how I wish I could go to a ce where no one could find me! Then, I’ll be able to do whatever I


    like.”


    I just want to sing. It’s not like I want to do something bad. Why is Dad so adamantly opposed to it?


    “If you really want to be a singer, Ysabelle, stick to your guns. Your dream will onlye true if you


    persist.”


    Ysabelle stared at her.


    “I truly envy you, Soph. I’m jealous that you can do whatever you please.” Perhaps it was because she


    had glimpsed such insouciance in Sophie’s eyes back then that she had done everything possible to


    befriend her.


    “Ysabelle, you can be the best singer in the world. Oh yes, The Wheelers is having a concert


    tomorrow. I’ll bring you there!”


    The Wheelers was all the rage presently, so every single concert by the band was incendiary.


    As long as it was for a concert by The Wheelers, it was difficult to even obtain a ticket.


    “How I wish! I tried to get a ticketst night, but I failed to buy any.”


    Ysabelle was entirely crestfallen. The Wheelers is really too popr. The main vocalist, Mark, is even


    renowned across Chanaea. He’s the dream man of many girls!


    “I’ve got tickets.” Mark had someone send tickets to Sophie a week ago, but she hadn’t nned on


    going back then.


    Since Ysabelle had been depressed recently, she decided to apany her to the concert.


    “Really?” Ysabelle seemed to havee to life the instant she heard that Sophie had tickets. After all,


    she idolized The Wheelers.


    “Yup!”


    Sure enough, she’s young and guileless that she’s so easily appeased!


    By the time they reached the school gates, the car belonging to the Lombard family was already idling


    there. Seeing that the driver was already waiting for her, Ysabelle couldn’t help heaving a sigh.


    However, her good mood rebounded at the thought that she would be attending The Wheelers’ concert


    tomorrow night.


    “Soph, have my uncle pick me up tomorrow night, okay? Otherwise, it’s very likely that I won’t be able


    to get out of the house.” She hankered for a revolution, but it was beyond her capabilities.


    At that, Sophie chuckled.


    Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    “Okay! Don’t worry. I’ll have your uncle pick you up.”


    But… will Tristan be willing to attend such a concert with us?


    “All right. I’m going home, then! Go back and rest earlier as well!”


    After getting into the car, Ysabelle even stuck her hand out and waved at Sophie.


    Subsequently, Sophie headed back to Wisteria Apartments. No sooner had she taken a few steps than


    she noticed someone tailing her. Verily, she was sick of such tricks.


    Can’t they be more innovative? They only tail me every single time, yet they can’t do anything to me.


    She stopped short and leaned back against the wall, waiting for those people following her to make an


    appearance.


    Sure enough, the few men tailing her rushed out upon seeing that she wasn’t moving anymore. It was a


    few burly men with petrifying tattoos on their arms.


    Taking out a strip of chewing gum, Sophie ripped the wrapper off and popped it into her mouth. It’s


    been a long time since I’vest gotten some exercise. They came at just the perfect time!


    “Do you know who we are, girly?”


    Sophie hadn’t even an iota of interest in engaging in such dumb conversation, for it wasn’t the least bit


    significant.


    “Is something the matter?” Sophie asked bluntly. “If you want to fight, juste at me together.”


    Don’t they find it boring to y a such silly game when they’re all strong and strapping men?


    “How dare you?”


    Huh? This script is wholly different from what we imagined.


    Before Sophie had the chance to make her move, Bailey appeared beside her and shielded her behind


    him.


    “Who ordered the lot of you toe here? I’ve said that no one is allowed to hurt her.” Bailey had


    known that his mother would never let Sophie off the hook.


    He had followed her as well when he saw her leaving with Ysabelle after the self-study session at night.


    Never had he expected to witness such a scene for real.


    “Mr. Dixon…”


    At the sight of him, the few burly men grew somewhat flustered. They all knew his temperament, but it


    was Whitlea’s orders. For that reason, they couldn’t do anything about it either.


    “Mr. Dixon, Ms. Whitlea is only doing this for your own good. Please don’t make things difficult for us


    and go home quickly instead! We promise we aren’t going to hurt her. We merely want to scare her for


    a bit.”


    Scare her?


    “Well, the lot of you indeed look rather scary.” If a kid were to behold their countenances, he would


    probably burst into tears in fright.


    “How dare you?” Argh! Why are her remarks all so irritating? No matter what, we all have normal facial


    features. How could she make personal attacks on us? This is too much! She’s really going too far!


    “Look, Mr. Dixon! We aren’t the ones who want to pick on her. It’s the other way round!”


    How can there be such a girl? We all look like tough nuts at a single nce, okay? Yet, she dared


    im that we arecking in the looks department!


    Ignoring them, Bailey urged Sophie, “Go home first, Sophie!”


    It’s veryte, so she should go home and rest.


    Sophie cast a nce at the few men, but she wasn’t certain whether he could handle them.


    “You don’t have to bother about me, Bailey.” Really, there’s no need for him to strain his rtionship


    with Whitlea because of me. Ultimately, she’s still his mother.


    Bailey shook his head.


    “I’m to be med for this incident. How can I sit idly by and do nothing? No matter what, I must


    interfere in this!”


    “Mr. Dixon, you’ll definitely be hauled over the coals when you go home if you do so.” Is he still not


    familiar with Ms. Whitlea’s temperament? He’ll only suffer if he continues to persist.


    “In that case, pardon me for my actions!” Sophie pulled the hood of her sweater over her head before


    she pushed Bailey away. If I beat them all up, Whitlea won’t me him anymore, will she?


    “Sophie!” Panic swamped Bailey. Crap! She has no idea about their line of work in the past! They’re all


    brutal and vicious!


    To his surprise, Sophie wasn’t the least bit inferior to them.


    They were ruthless when they attacked her, but she was even more merciless.


    They were terrifying, but she was even more horrifying than them.


    Sophie stacked them all together. Then she casually dusted her hands.


    “It’s been a long time since I’vest had such a workout. Get up. Let’s go at it again!”
