Pursuing Her Chapter 301
Chapter 301
Dance On Our Wedding Night “Are you okay, Louisa? It’s not that we don’t want to help you, but you
saw the earlier situation. They had uspletely outnumbered. If we had stepped up—” “That’s
enough! Shut up, all of you!” Louisa was boiling with rage after getting humiliated like that. “You lot
were supposed to be my best friends. Only after what happened today did I discover how much I really
mean to you.” The young woman was upset that no one stepped up to help her. “There were too many
of them, Louisa. Besides, it was you who wanted to bet with them,” protested one of Louisa’s friends. It
wasn’t our fault that she thought she could win. “By the way, who exactly was the guy who spoke just
now?”
“I’m curious as well. Seeing how protective he was of Sophie, I bet he’s her boyfriend!” “Louisa, do you
really have no idea who he is? You and your family are doomed if hees after you all.” Louisa was
even more troubled after listening to her friends, for the man who leftst did not look like someone she
would want to mess with. “Do you think we, the Yarboroughs, are pushovers and that anyone can
threaten us?” she snapped. “I wouldn’t speak so arrogantly if I were you, youngdy. There’s always
someone more powerful out there; you never know who you’re dealing with.” The manager of Nocturnal
came to see what themotion was about and was surprised to learn that the young woman before
him had the guts to offend Tristan. “Who is he?” Louisa felt somewhat uneasy after hearing the
manager’s words. “The man who leftst? That’s Mr. Northley. Have you heard of him?” Louisa said
nothing in response. Noticing that, the manager added, “You’d better think of a way to appease him.
Otherwise, you and your family will be in big trouble.
” Still, she remained silent. At that point, Louisa was no longer in the mood to have fun and hurried
home instead. When she reached home and saw her parents, she wanted toin to them but
changed her mind when she recalled the man’s identity. “What’s wrong, Louisa? Did somebody bully
you? If that’s true, you have to let me know,” voiced Louisa’s mother. It was only natural that she got
worried since Louisa was her only child. “Mom, is Mr. Northley powerful?” Louisa often heard her father
talk about the four prominent families but had no idea exactly how influential Felix was. “Mr. Northley?
He’s not someone we can afford to offend. Why did you ask, though? Do you know him?” “I don’t.”
Louisa’s face immediately turned pale when she heard her mother’s answer. She dared not mention
how she offended Felix at Nocturnal and how he threatened to take everything away from her. “What’s
wrong? Are you feeling unwell?” “I’m just tired, Mom. I’m going to bed now.” Louisa was so frightened
that she decided to hurry into her room instead of telling her family the truth. “What’s going on with
her?” Louisa’s mother could not figure out why her daughter would suddenly mention Felix. That man is
in a different ss than we are! We definitely can’t trifle with him. Meanwhile, Tristan took Sophie back
to Wisteria Apartments. Even though thetter did not stay there for the past few days, Susan had
regrly kept the ce clean and ready for her to return to. “I’ll go take a shower first.” Sophie felt
extremely ufortable from the ickiness of being drenched in sweat.
“Sure. Go ahead!” Tristan replied. He took off his jacket, hung it up, and then went to boil some water.
As for Sophie, she grabbed a fresh set of clothes from the bedroom and entered the bathroom. It only
took her fifteen minutes to finish her shower. After changing and blowing her hair dry, she felt
refreshed, and her mood improved greatly. When Sophie stepped out of the bedroom, Tristan had
already done boiling the water. As soon as he saw her, he handed her a thermos. “Drink some warm
water.” In response, she took the bottle and did as told. “Did you often dance in the past?” inquired
Tristan suddenly. Surprised by the question, Sophie thought for a while before replying, “I used to be
young and wild. I’d always hang out with Mark and the others, so I did dance sometimes.” “You danced
very well.”
He was reminded, again, of how attractive the young woman was just then. “Really? You didn’t look
impressed, though.” It had been a while since Sophiest bust a move, which would have remained
unchanged had Louisa not crossed the line. “I didn’t like how people looked at you.” Tristan did not
appreciate the attention she got. Sophie already had good looks, so the fact that she could dance so
well only turned more heads. “Oh. I understand. I won’t dance again.” Sophie was thoughtful enough to
refrain from doing anything that would upset Tristan. Upon hearing that, he pulled her into his embrace
and made her lean against his shoulder. “You can dance, but you can only do it for me.” Tristan still
wished to see Sophie’s sexy and alluring side when he was alone with her. Then, Sophie tilted her
head curiously at the man. “Are you sure, Mr. Tristan?” she asked. She was worried he would lose
control if she gave him a private dance. “I am. However, what do you say we save that for our wedding
night?” Tristan did not have much faith in his self-control either. Sophie had nothing to say in response
to his suggestion. The following day, it was still early in the morning when Sophie finished packing her
belongings. At the sight of her walking down the stairs with her suitcase, Josiah immediately jumped to
his feet. “Soph, I know how important the physicspetition is, but do you really have to leave so
soon?” he asked. Josiah could not bear the thought of being apart from Sophie for half a month.
“Maybe I should go with you. That way, I can continue to take care of you.” Convinced that Sophie had
been through enough hardship in the past, he wanted nothing more than to treat her like a princess.
“Grandpa, you don’t have to worry about me. I’m just going to a summer camp!” Sophie replied. She
had always been patient with her grandfather. “Fine! You have to remember to call me as soon as you
get there, okay? Also, do your best. I heard it’s a nationwidepetition, but I believe you can do it.”
Josiah had every faith in Sophie.
The old man knew about the physicspetition she would be participating in and was aware that the
top three participants would be eligible for the international middle school physicspetition held in
Anndur next month. Caleb’s attitude toward Sophie had changed a lot by then. “Do your best to take
advantage of the opportunity, Sophie. If you do well in thispetition, you’ll be able to join the
International Academy of Physics,” Caleb advised, mentioning the academy many dreamt of being a
part of. “Okay.” However, Sophie was not very interested in that because she simply wanted to prove
herself to Whitlea. “Caleb, she’s merely there to make up the numbers, yet you think she’s capable of
bringing a trophy home?” mocked Willow as she looked at Sophie coldly. s, thetter chose to
ignore her, only sneering. Clenching her fists, Willow was determined to make use of her forte—N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner.
