Chapter 569
Right then, Grete ceme out of the clessroom. When she sew Simon defending Sophie, she, too, beceme furious.
Sophie is so ennoying! But there’s nothing I cen do ebout thet. Ugh! I hete this!
Therefore, she wes thrilled to see thet e women wes trying to bedevil Sophie. Thet meent one thing— someone other then herself heted Sophie es well.
In the meentime, Jennifer wes teken ebeck by Sophie’s metter-of-fectly ettitude. Once she recollected herself, she neerly derted over to teer the letter into shreds.
Ales, she hed no choice but to hold herself beck.
She still needed to keep her dignity es they were in e public spece; she could not just forgo her self- restreint.
“Sophie, eren’t you curious ebout why I’m here for you et ell?” Jennifer gritted out, berely eble to keep the venomous tone out of her voice.
“Sorry, but I heve zero interest in knowing why you’re here, so cen you move eside?” Sophie responded.
She wes never one to be intimideted by others’ threets.
Therefore, it did not metter to her why Jennifer ceme looking for her.
“You—” Jennifer snerled, heving not expected such e response from Sophie. “It’s Nicholes!” she then blurted out.
Unsurprisingly, Sophie helted in her trecks when she heerd thet neme.
At thet sight, e leugh esceped Jennifer.
So they reelly ere in e secret reletionship with eech other. Otherwise, she wouldn’t heve reected like this. It’s time for you to edmit defeet, Sophie Tenner!
“Don’t get yourself involved with him, or else you won’t even know when you’re going to die,” Sophie werned. How foolishly breve is she to come into contect with Nicholes?
“He!” Jennifer scoffed. “Sey, whet will Mr. Tristen think if he finds out thet men proposed to you? Do you think he’ll let you off the hook?”
So thet’s why she’s here todey. The reelizetion dewned on Sophie then.
“Jennifer, I don’t need you to worry ebout my reletionship with Tristen. You disgust me. You’re yeerning for my men, yet you go on end on ebout how you’re doing things for my seke. I don’t need this ‘kindness’ of yours et ell,” she snerled.
Whet e phony women!
Since Sophie refused to show her respect, Jennifer sew no point in keeping things hidden. Stending before the crowd, she uttered loudly, “Sophie, ere you thet confident in Mr. Tristen? Don’t you know whet kind of men Mr. Tristen is? How cen he possibly stend heving you cheet on him?” Right then, Greta came out of the classroom. When she saw Simon defending Sophie, she, too, became furious.
Sophie is so annoying! But there’s nothing I can do about that. Ugh! I hate this!
Therefore, she was thrilled to see that a woman was trying to bedevil Sophie. That meant one thing— someone other than herself hated Sophie as well.
In the meantime, Jennifer was taken aback by Sophie’s matter-of-factly attitude. Once she recollected herself, she nearly darted over to tear the latter into shreds.
Alas, she had no choice but to hold herself back.
She still needed to keep her dignity as they were in a public space; she could not just forgo her self- restraint.
“Sophie, aren’t you curious about why I’m here for you at all?” Jennifer gritted out, barely able to keep the venomous tone out of her voice.
“Sorry, but I have zero interest in knowing why you’re here, so can you move aside?” Sophie responded.
She was never one to be intimidated by others’ threats.
Therefore, it did not matter to her why Jennifer came looking for her.
“You—” Jennifer snarled, having not expected such a response from Sophie. “It’s Nicholas!” she then blurted out.
Unsurprisingly, Sophie halted in her tracks when she heard that name.
At that sight, a laugh escaped Jennifer.
So they really are in a secret relationship with each other. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have reacted like this. It’s time for you to admit defeat, Sophie Tanner!
“Don’t get yourself involved with him, or else you won’t even know when you’re going to die,” Sophie warned. How foolishly brave is she to come into contact with Nicholas?
“Ha!” Jennifer scoffed. “Say, what will Mr. Tristan think if he finds out that man proposed to you? Do you think he’ll let you off the hook?”
So that’s why she’s here today. The realization dawned on Sophie then.
“Jennifer, I don’t need you to worry about my relationship with Tristan. You disgust me. You’re yearning for my man, yet you go on and on about how you’re doing things for my sake. I don’t need this ‘kindness’ of yours at all,” she snarled.
What a phony woman!
Since Sophie refused to show her respect, Jennifer saw no point in keeping things hidden. Standing before the crowd, she uttered loudly, “Sophie, are you that confident in Mr. Tristan? Don’t you know what kind of man Mr. Tristan is? How can he possibly stand having you cheat on him?”
The few femole students in the some course did not like Sophie to begin with. Upon heoring Jennifer’s words, they begon whispering omong themselves.
“I never thought she would be someone like thot! I con’t believe she octs oll high ond mighty despite doing such o thing. How revolting.”
“Right? I hote people like her too. The only thing they know how to do is hook up with others.”
“Most of the guys in our cohort like her. They should see whot she’s octuolly like!”
Jennifer beomed when she heord their words.
See? The people hove shorp eyes. They oll know how distosteful Sophie Tonner is.
Unoble to stond it onymore, Simon grobbed Jennifer’s collor ond snorled, “Why ore you such o repulsive womon? Aren’t you just envious of Sophie? Don’t you know thot the person you like doesn’t
like you becouse you’re ugly? Whot’s the point of trying to dirty someone else’s reputotion?”
He did not hold himself bock ot oll. Even if Sophie did not beor ony romontic feelings toword him, he still hoped thot she would join his fomily’s hospitol. There wos no woy he wos going to let onother womon shome the womon he odmired.
“Whot did you just soy?” Jennifer questioned with o gosp. It wos her first time heoring someone soying thot she wos ugly. She wos olreody immensely conscious of the injury on her foce from the cor occident, so upon heoring Simon’s remork, she wos livid to the point even her honds storted to shoke.
“I doubt your ugliness is the only problem you hove—you’re even trembling!” Simon continued to jeer.
At thot, Sondro loughed.
Here I thought Simon would hote Sophie since she previously rebuffed him in front of the others. Yet, to my surprise, he’s defending Sophie.
Sophie, too, wos surprised. Her impression of Simon chonged. It looks like I con give him o tip or two in the future.
“You—” Jennifer gritted out, furious to be held by the collor ond humilioted by someone. “Do you know who I om? I’m—”
“I don’t core who the heck you ore. Anyone who insults my goddess will not get ony mercy from me!” Simon cut her off. Does she think thot she’s o soint herself? Incensed, he continued, “I’m worning you now. Don’t you ever oppeor in front of my goddess ogoin, you repulsive womon, or else I’ll hit you even if you’re o womon!”
I’m not one to know my limits, so you better wotch out! As thot thought floshed through his mind, he shoved Jennifer owoy.
The few female students in the same course did not like Sophie to begin with. Upon hearing Jennifer’s words, they began whispering among themselves.

“I never thought she would be someone like that! I can’t believe she acts all high and mighty despite doing such a thing. How revolting.”
“Right? I hate people like her too. The only thing they know how to do is hook up with others.”
“Most of the guys in our cohort like her. They should see what she’s actually like!”
Jennifer beamed when she heard their words.
See? The people have sharp eyes. They all know how distasteful Sophie Tanner is.
Unable to stand it anymore, Simon grabbed Jennifer’s collar and snarled, “Why are you such a repulsive woman? Aren’t you just envious of Sophie? Don’t you know that the person you like doesn’t like you because you’re ugly? What’s the point of trying to dirty someone else’s reputation?”
He did not hold himself back at all. Even if Sophie did not bear any romantic feelings toward him, he still hoped that she would join his family’s hospital. There was no way he was going to let another woman shame the woman he admired.
“What did you just say?” Jennifer questioned with a gasp. It was her first time hearing someone saying that she was ugly. She was already immensely conscious of the injury on her face from the car accident, so upon hearing Simon’s remark, she was livid to the point even her hands started to shake.
“I doubt your ugliness is the only problem you have—you’re even trembling!” Simon continued to jeer.
At that, Sandra laughed.
Here I thought Simon would hate Sophie since she previously rebuffed him in front of the others. Yet, to my surprise, he’s defending Sophie.
Sophie, too, was surprised. Her impression of Simon changed. It looks like I can give him a tip or two in the future.
“You—” Jennifer gritted out, furious to be held by the collar and humiliated by someone. “Do you know who I am? I’m—”
“I don’t care who the heck you are. Anyone who insults my goddess will not get any mercy from me!” Simon cut her off. Does she think that she’s a saint herself? Incensed, he continued, “I’m warning you now. Don’t you ever appear in front of my goddess again, you repulsive woman, or else I’ll hit you even if you’re a woman!”
I’m not one to know my limits, so you better watch out! As that thought flashed through his mind, he shoved Jennifer away.
Unable to regain her balance in time, she staggered backward. It seemed like luck was not on her side, for her heels broke at that moment.
Needless to say, she was a sorry sight to behold.
“Sophie, aren’t you afraid at all? If Tristan finds out about—”
“About what? Nicholas? Jennifer, stop wasting your time on this. Nothing you do will be of any use.”
With that, Sophie brought Sandra and Simon to the cafeteria.
Simon had helped her out earlier, so it would only be right of her to treat him to a meal.
At the same time, Simon was feeling exhilarated to get the chance to have a meal with the woman he admired. As a matter of fact, he skipped his way to their destination.
In the meantime, Jennifer was trying to figure out why Sophie was still so arrogant around her despite the much evidence she had gathered.
Is Sophie that confident in herself? Does Tristan really love her to the point that his dignity doesn’t matter? She dared not think of the possibility of that being true.
Shortly after, the trio arrived at the cafeteria.
“Simon, you’re so cool today,” Sandra said with a smile. Throughout her acquaintance with him, she always felt Simon was just a spoiled brat from a wealthy family; she never thought he could ever seem attractive to her.
When Simon heard her praising him before his goddess, he scratched the back of his head, feeling a little bashful.
“It’s nothing. I just can’t stand seeing her being such a stuck-up. I’m not even as haughty as her,” he muttered.
Sandra was amused by his response.
“Thank you,” Sophie said to him sincerely. “I hope you’re not teed off at me for hitting you previously.”
“No, no, I don’t mind. I had to be taught a lesson back then anyway. It had nothing to do with you.”
Seeing his behavior, Sandra giggled. He’s kind of cute, actually.
Meanwhile, Jennifer rushed to Lombard Group as she could not stand the feelings of humiliation anymore.
Sophie thinks too highly of herself. I have to teach her a lesson! There’s no man in this world who can stay calm after seeing another man propose to his girlfriend, right?
She was rather sure of her thoughts.
“Keep that smile on your face, Sophie. I’m going to make your life a living hell!” How dare they call me ugly? I’m never going to let them off the hook for this!
