Chapter 668
“Yes. It just came to my mind. That’s enough. Let’s not talk about that today,” Sarah replied. When one likes another person, it takes a lot to forget them. I’ve been trying so hard to forget him, but it doesn’t seem to be working. There’s nothing I can do about it.
“Sarah, Juan isn’t worth your time and love,” Cecelia uttered. That’s just how love works sometimes. However, Juan really isn’t worth it.
Cecelia proceeded to sit next to Sarah and added assertively, “I’m serious, Sarah. In order to forget about a past relationship, you must start a new one! Since the three have no boyfriend, let’s find a hunk each during this trip.”
Indeed, it wasn’t such a bad idea.
“Forget about it! I can’t hook up with someone I have no feelings for.” Sarah shook her head. If I don’t love that person, I can’t just let myself loose.
Cecelia waved dismissively and said, “Sarah, love isn’t that pure! I’m serious. Let’s find someone for you. No matter what happens after that, it’s still going to be better than your current situation.”
Obviously, Ysabelle knew how much Sarah loved Juan, but Ysabelle also didn’t think Juan was worth it.
“Aunt Sarah, I think Cecelia’s suggestion is a good one,” Ysabelle chimed in. As long as Aunt Sarah can forget Juan, it doesn’t matter who she ends up with. Aunt Sarah wouldn’t need to suffer if she could get Juan off of her mind.
“Oh, come on. Don’t worry about me, girls. I’m fine, really. It’s just that he popped up in my mind all of a sudden,” Sarah uttered. Perhaps the season we’re in plays a role. I just couldn’t help thinking about the past.
Although they were there to have fun, they ended up staying in the room the entire afternoon chatting over wine.
Despite that, it was still a very relaxing time for everyone.
After everyone had fallen asleep, Sophie went up to Sarah and asked, “Sarah, would you like to have a chat?” At times, one had to get things off of their chest to feel at ease.
Sarah wrapped her arm around Sophie’s shoulders and answered, “I’m fine, Sophie. I fell in love with the wrong person. That’s all.”
Sarah knew she could definitely forget Juan. No one is going to remember someone until the end of time. I’m sure this is only happening because I have such a good memory. Although it takes time, I’m sure I’ll be able to forget him.
Sophie nodded. “All right. I don’t want to comment too much on Juan, but I know it’s his loss for missing out on you.”
Sarah was a very capable woman.
“Yes. I know. By the way, my dad has already agreed to let you and Tristan be together. I know you only want to get married after you graduated. However, you guys can get engaged first.” Sarah was a little concerned about Sophie’s situation. Sophie’s reputation is going to take a hit if she keeps following Tristan around without an official title.
Evidently, Sarah was very fond of Sophie. That was why she would look out for her.
“Tristan and I are very sure about spending the rest of our lives with each other, Sarah. Since that’s the case, I don’t think we need to go through the trouble,” Sophie answered. Like me, Tristan doesn’t enjoy troubling himself with such things. I think what we have now is good.
“What do you mean? You need ceremonies in life,” Sarah advised. If they continue on like this, they might get sick of each other. What’s going to happen then?
“Well, Tristan likes ceremonies,” Sophie answered. Regardless of the occasion, Tristan would always prepare gifts for me. Besides, the gifts he had given me are all the things I need. I don’t voice my feelings, but I know how good Tristan is to me.
“Hmm… That’s right. Tristan has never fallen in love with anyone but you. He’s really into you,” Sarah answered. Tristan loves her so much that he’s afraid to lose her. If that’s the case, it has to be true love, right? Everyone knows Tristan loves Sophie. It takes a lot to love another person so whole-heartedly for someone like Tristan.
While it was snowing heavily outside, Sarah and Sophie were talking about the man they both cherished the most in their lives in the hotel.
“Sophie, since Tristan is my younger brother, it’s only normal for me to be biased toward him. I know how much he loves you. As his sister, I hope you’ll never hurt him,” Sarah uttered.
Needless to say, Sarah was biased toward Tristan, and she couldn’t imagine what would happen to Tristan if Sophie were to break up with him.
At the same time, Sarah knew Sophie was Tristan’s weakness.
“Sarah, there’s no way I’m ever going to hurt him,” Sophie replied. I’ll never do that.
Meanwhile, Tristan had successfully located Willow, and she fell into utter despair when she saw him.
I’ve finally gotten out, and I’ve even found a place to hide. How is this man still able to find me? How did he find me? Willow panicked, and she wanted to escape. However, a few burly men showed up before her and stopped her.
The men then pushed Willow toward Tristan. In front of him, she felt pathetic and filthy.
Therefore, she didn’t even dare to say a single word.
“I have underestimated you, Willow. I didn’t expect you to be capable of escaping that place!” Tristan said.
In an icy tone, Tristan added, “Don’t you know Jipsdale is my territory? Did you really think you could go anywhere without asking for my permission?”
The way he looked at Willow was as if he were looking at an insignificant ant.
Under his gaze, Willow felt extremely vulnerable.
“Mr. Tristan, I know I’m worth nothing in your eyes. That’s why none of you would take me seriously.”
Willow’s voice was hoarse instead of sweet and adorable like it used to be.
Clearly, she wasn’t the same as before after being kept at the psychiatric nursing home for such a long time.
In that place, Willow was in a living hell, and Sophie was the reason she ended up there.
“Mr. Tristan, I know you love Sophie deeply. Even so, do you need to harm me? What did I do wrong? Could you please let me go? As long as you’re willing to let me go, I promise to leave Jipsdale and never return,” Willow begged.
At that moment, Willow wanted nothing more than to leave the city. I want nothing but to get out of here as quickly as I can. I hate Sophie to the bone, but I’m willing to let go of my hatred. I just want to live somewhere else.
“Let you go? Do you take me for such a merciful person?” Tristan questioned. Since she had committed a mistake, she should get punished!
Willow trembled as she stood there in the freezing cold. “Why? I’m just an ordinary person! Why do you want me gone so badly? Is it because of Sophie? She’s a human, and so are others, no? How could you not care about the lives of others?”
