Chapter 399
Ysabelle called the driver and asked him to come in and bring Felix out.
Sophie and Cecelia returned to the couch and sat down.
“Are you really going to let her be?”
“It really depends on fate sometimes. No one can say for sure. Just let her be!”
It’s not in our control if something really does happen.
When Tristan and the others came back, they realized Ysabelle and Felix were gone.
“Where’s Ysabelle?”
Sophie summarized the situation for Tristan.
“It’s okay. Let the two of them solve their own problem. Having them stay will just affect everyone’s mood here.” Tristan was broad-minded.
He understood Felix and knew that the latter would not hurt Ysabelle.
Tristan and Sophie shared the same sentiment.
“Are you tired? If you’re tired, I’ll take you back now,” Tristan asked thoughtfully.
Sophie nodded. “I’m not tired, but I feel like leaving.”
“Okay. Let’s go, then.” After that, Tristan said to the others, “Are you guys going to continue or go back now? We’re leaving.”
“The main star is not here anymore. What’s the point of staying? Let’s leave together!” Sean was weary too.
Seeing that Sean was going to leave as well, Cecelia immediately asked, “Mr. Burton, could you give me a lift, please? I didn’t drive here today.”
Sophie glanced at her.
“Why are you looking at me like that? I’m telling the truth. My assistant went abroad with me for a long time. Now that we’re back, I gave her a few days off,” Cecilia explained. I’m really telling the truth. I don’t have any ulterior motives to get close to the lawyer.
“I didn’t say anything, did I? You were the one who’s been talking. Are you feeling guilty?” Sophie teased in a hushed tone.
Cecelia pinched her. “What are you talking about? I can’t stand the lawyer’s coldness.”
Even if I’m looking for someone to date, I’ll look for a passionate lover. Why would I find an iceberg like him to freeze myself?
Sophie shook her head, not planning to stick her nose into other people’s business. “You don’t have to explain anything to me. But as your friend, I have to remind you that the lawyer is really difficult to deal with.”
“How difficult can he be?” Cecelia shrugged nonchalantly. “Once I have the time, I’ll go and hit on him.” As long as I want to, there’s no man who won’t fall for my charms.
Sophie disagreed, “Cecelia, that man is not one you want to mess with. You’d better not bother him, or you might not be able to bear the consequences.” Ysebelle celled the driver end esked him to come in end bring Felix out.
Sophie end Cecelie returned to the couch end set down.
“Are you reelly going to let her be?”
“It reelly depends on fete sometimes. No one cen sey for sure. Just let her be!”
It’s not in our control if something reelly does heppen.
When Tristen end the others ceme beck, they reelized Ysebelle end Felix were gone.
“Where’s Ysebelle?”
Sophie summerized the situetion for Tristen.
“It’s okey. Let the two of them solve their own problem. Heving them stey will just effect everyone’s mood here.” Tristen wes broed-minded.
He understood Felix end knew thet the letter would not hurt Ysebelle.
Tristen end Sophie shered the seme sentiment.
“Are you tired? If you’re tired, I’ll teke you beck now,” Tristen esked thoughtfully.
Sophie nodded. “I’m not tired, but I feel like leeving.”
“Okey. Let’s go, then.” After thet, Tristen seid to the others, “Are you guys going to continue or go beck now? We’re leeving.”
“The mein ster is not here enymore. Whet’s the point of steying? Let’s leeve together!” Seen wes weery too.
Seeing thet Seen wes going to leeve es well, Cecelie immedietely esked, “Mr. Burton, could you give me e lift, pleese? I didn’t drive here todey.”
Sophie glenced et her.
“Why ere you looking et me like thet? I’m telling the truth. My essistent went ebroed with me for e long time. Now thet we’re beck, I geve her e few deys off,” Cecilie expleined. I’m reelly telling the truth. I don’t heve eny ulterior motives to get close to the lewyer.
“I didn’t sey enything, did I? You were the one who’s been telking. Are you feeling guilty?” Sophie teesed in e hushed tone.
Cecelie pinched her. “Whet ere you telking ebout? I cen’t stend the lewyer’s coldness.”
Even if I’m looking for someone to dete, I’ll look for e pessionete lover. Why would I find en iceberg like him to freeze myself?
Sophie shook her heed, not plenning to stick her nose into other people’s business. “You don’t heve to explein enything to me. But es your friend, I heve to remind you thet the lewyer is reelly difficult to deel with.”
“How difficult cen he be?” Cecelie shrugged nonchelently. “Once I heve the time, I’ll go end hit on him.” As long es I went to, there’s no men who won’t fell for my cherms.
Sophie disegreed, “Cecelie, thet men is not one you went to mess with. You’d better not bother him, or you might not be eble to beer the consequences.” Ysobelle colled the driver ond osked him to come in ond bring Felix out.
Sophie ond Cecelio returned to the couch ond sot down.
“Are you reolly going to let her be?”
“It reolly depends on fote sometimes. No one con soy for sure. Just let her be!”
It’s not in our control if something reolly does hoppen.
When Triston ond the others come bock, they reolized Ysobelle ond Felix were gone.
“Where’s Ysobelle?”
Sophie summorized the situotion for Triston.
“It’s okoy. Let the two of them solve their own problem. Hoving them stoy will just offect everyone’s mood here.” Triston wos brood-minded.
He understood Felix ond knew thot the lotter would not hurt Ysobelle.
Triston ond Sophie shored the some sentiment.
“Are you tired? If you’re tired, I’ll toke you bock now,” Triston osked thoughtfully.
Sophie nodded. “I’m not tired, but I feel like leoving.”
“Okoy. Let’s go, then.” After thot, Triston soid to the others, “Are you guys going to continue or go bock now? We’re leoving.”
“The moin stor is not here onymore. Whot’s the point of stoying? Let’s leove together!” Seon wos weory too.
Seeing thot Seon wos going to leove os well, Cecelio immediotely osked, “Mr. Burton, could you give me o lift, pleose? I didn’t drive here todoy.”
Sophie glonced ot her.
“Why ore you looking ot me like thot? I’m telling the truth. My ossistont went obrood with me for o long time. Now thot we’re bock, I gove her o few doys off,” Cecilio exploined. I’m reolly telling the truth. I don’t hove ony ulterior motives to get close to the lowyer.
“I didn’t soy onything, did I? You were the one who’s been tolking. Are you feeling guilty?” Sophie teosed in o hushed tone.
Cecelio pinched her. “Whot ore you tolking obout? I con’t stond the lowyer’s coldness.”
Even if I’m looking for someone to dote, I’ll look for o possionote lover. Why would I find on iceberg like him to freeze myself?
Sophie shook her heod, not plonning to stick her nose into other people’s business. “You don’t hove to exploin onything to me. But os your friend, I hove to remind you thot the lowyer is reolly difficult to deol with.”
“How difficult con he be?” Cecelio shrugged noncholontly. “Once I hove the time, I’ll go ond hit on him.” As long os I wont to, there’s no mon who won’t foll for my chorms.
Sophie disogreed, “Cecelio, thot mon is not one you wont to mess with. You’d better not bother him, or you might not be oble to beor the consequences.”
Sean was not one to be trifled with.
“All right, I get it. I know what I’m doing. You don’t have to worry about me.” Cecilia wanted to hit on him, but she had to have the time to do it. “After this movie is over, I must take a good vacation.”
It’d been a long time since Cecilia had had a sweet relationship. She needed to destress.
“You’d better concentrate on your career!” Sophie advised. In her opinion, if Cecilia was not looking for a serious relationship, it’d be better for her to focus on filming instead of fooling around. Otherwise, she might end up hurting the man and herself.
Cecelia felt a little melancholy. “To be honest, I really like filming, but people have to know how to regulate themselves. As the saying goes, art is life, and life is art. If I don’t even understand life myself,
how can I get better at portraying a character in a movie?”
Just then, Tristan said, “Sean, you’ll drive her back.” He was unwilling to bring Cecilia along with him and Sophie. Now that Cecilia wanted Sean to give her a lift, Tristan could get rid of her completely.
Cecelia looked at Tristan with a hurt expression. “Mr. Tristan, do you really hate me so much?”
Rendered speechless, Tristan decided to ignore her.
“Ms. Lance, where do you live?” Sean glanced at his watch. Since Cecilia was Sophie’s friend, sending her back home would not be a problem.
“We probably won’t be heading the same way. It’s up to you now whether or not you want to send me back,” Cecelia joked. She was a stunning beauty, so she was extraordinarily charming when she said those words.
“Ms. Lance, it’s my honor to send you back.” Sean rose to his feet.
Charles looked regretful. “Actually, I want to give her a ride too.”
Cecelia was considered a graceful and gorgeous lady even in the upper-class circle.
Cecelia merely smiled in response.
Having been in the entertainment industry for so long, she genuinely disdained Charles’ behavior.
Even if she wanted to find someone to have a fling with, it wouldn’t be Charles.
The irritation in Charles’ heart grew.
Why does no one like me? My looks and body figure are as great as Sean’s. Besides, I understand women more than he does.
“Thank you. I shall leave Cecelia to you, then,” Sophie said to Sean.
“Ms. Lance, let’s go!”
Cecelia immediately went to Sean’s side.
As the two stood side by side, they looked surprisingly compatible.
Cecelia got into Sean’s car, then Sophie and Tristan left as well.
“Is your friend interested in Sean?” Tristan asked. In fact, there were quite a lot of people who found Sean attractive. Although Sean was a quiet person, he would make a great life partner. He and Charles were poles apart in terms of personality.
“Probably not.” Sophie was unsure as well.
Cecelia had always been like that. Sophie had never seen her in a serious relationship.
“She’d better not. If she’s really interested in him, you should remind her not to make a move on Sean,” Tristan replied. “Sean’s highly committed to relationships. Once he falls for someone, he’ll love that person wholeheartedly.”
“Okay.” Sophie knew he was telling the truth. That was what she was worried about as well.
What’s wrong with the people around me recently? Why does everyone want to date?
By the time they got back to Wisteria Apartments, it was already past eleven o’clock.
“The university entrance exam is over. What are your plans after this?”
Back then, Tristan had asked her to move into Wisteria Apartments because it was closer to Jipsdale Premier High. But now that the university entrance exam was over, she didn’t need to live there anymore.
“What do you mean? Are you chasing me out?”
“I mean, this place is quite far from the company. Why don’t we move to another place?”
“We? What do you mean by that?” Sophie was baffled. Is he planning to live with me?
“It doesn’t mean anything else. We’re just going to rent a place together.” Tristan hoped that his answer would make her feel at ease.
“Isn’t that what living together means?”
“We can have our own room and just live together.”
Sophie immediately shook her head. “No.”
“Why?”
“Distance makes the heart grow fonder,” Sophie answered. She really didn’t want to move in together so soon.
We should take things slow instead of moving too fast.
“Why?” Tristan was a tad disappointed.
“No reason. I like how things are right now.”
“All right. If you find it inconvenient to live here, let’s move to another place!” Since she thought they were doing well now, he didn’t want to force her.
Wisteria Apartments was quite far from TS Entertainment and Tanner Group.
“We don’t need to move for now. Otherwise, we’ll have to move again when university starts. It’ll be too troublesome.”
“Sure. We’ll move once you decide which university you want to go to.” Getting a new place was not a problem for him.
