Chapter 718
Winter was still dissatisfied with the reality. No matter how much time had passed, she just couldn’t forget what had happened. She didn’t want to be like this, and she wished she could live a more relaxed life as well. However, there was no way she could forget what had happened. Her heart still ached because of it.
“Ysabelle, you’ll never understand how I feel,” said Winter. Ysabelle is someone who always gets whatever she wants. Moreover, she has a man who loves her. How will she understand how I feel right now?
“Charles is waiting for you outside. You should go!” Ysabelle said coldly. As the saying goes, the lowliest of people are also often abominable. Winter didn’t deserve any sympathy at all. “Also, let me tell you something. Sophie and Uncle Tristan are getting married soon, so it’s pointless for you to do anything.”
Nobody would be able to ruin Sophie and Tristan’s relationship.
Winter was at a loss for words. They’re getting married, huh? Why didn’t anyone tell me about this? Right, who do I think I am? Nobody in this world cares about what I think. So, why would anyone tell me about this?
“Am I supposed to congratulate you all?” Winter’s voice was exceptionally icy.
“No, thanks.” Seeing how Winter was behaving, Sophie really didn’t know what else to say. “Just don’t put Charles in a difficult spot. You’re on your own now.”
With that, Sophie left with Ysabelle.
“She’s all right. She just threw up, but she won’t listen to what we tell her. You should figure it out yourself,” Ysabelle said to Charles calmly.
After all, this was Charles’ turf. No one would dare to do anything to Winter.
“All right, I understand. I’ll send someone to bring her out.” Charles was rather exasperated. Winter was behaving in a way that would make others extremely worried. She still hasn’t given up! But so what if she hasn’t? Mr. Tristan has never loved her! She’ll only make herself feel awful if she remains unrepentant like this. It won’t do her any good!
Sophie went to sit next to Tristan and said, “You don’t have to go there. It’s not your responsibility to care about her feelings.” Even if Charles was Tristan’s best friend, Winter was Charles’ sister, after all. Winter had nothing much to do with Sophie and Tristan.
“You know, I don’t want you to feel aggrieved because of someone else regardless of who they are,” Tristan replied.
“Mm-hmm. I just went to the restroom. I’m not feeling aggrieved.”
Charles was waiting for Winter outside of the restroom. He could only shake his head upon seeing Winter in her current situation.
“All right, you should go home first. I’ll ask someone to send you back,” Charles stated, thinking that if she stayed here looking like this, it would only make everyone unhappy.
“Charles, are you shunning me as well?” You’re my older brother! Why won’t you help me?
“I know I’m your brother. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have cared about you!” However, there are still many things that I can’t change even if I’m your brother. Isn’t that so?
“I don’t want to go back. Now that I’m finally back here with everyone, I don’t want to go back yet.” Winter refused to leave. Do I have no choice but to leave just because Sophie is here?
“Winter, listen to me. No matter how upset you are, that’s just your own feelings. Mr. Tristan has never participated in the relationship between you and him. That’s why he won’t make any changes for you.” Throughout this period, everyone witnessed Tristan’s sincerity in treating Sophie. There was no one else who could compare to Sophie.
“Stop talking, Charles. I don’t want to hear it. My head hurts.” Winter couldn’t listen to anything currently. All she wanted was a moment of quietness by herself. “You should head inside first. I’ll stand here alone for a while.”
“All right. Take a short break on your own right here. I’ve already asked the driver to pick you up, and the driver will call you later. Stop being so stubborn. Otherwise, no one can save you next time.” Walter was already in such dire circumstances, so there was no one else who could help Winter.
Winter remained silent. Clearly, I was the one who got to know Mr. Tristan first! But why am I the one who has no chance now?
Meanwhile, Charles had returned to the private room. Seeing how Charles looked, Sean patted him on the shoulder. “You don’t have to be too worried. Sophie isn’t a petty woman. She won’t do anything to Winter in consideration of you as long as Winter doesn’t cross the line.” Sean knew Sophie quite well.
“Yeah, I know. It’s just that… I’m sure you’re well aware of Winter’s temper. I’m not confident about how she’ll behave.” Charles didn’t know what things Winter would do.
“Well, it’s pointless for you to keep worrying. Whatever happened had happened, and we have no choice but to accept it.” No one would be able to resolve this issue.
Charles still remembered Sophie’s kindness. If it wasn’t for her, Winter wouldn’t have been able to come back here now.
“Sophie, no matter what you encounter in the future, I will do my best without any hesitation as long as you give me a call.” Although Charles was a frivolous man, he was still a loyal friend.
“Charles, you really don’t have to do this. This matter doesn’t affect me that much,” said Sophie. “Regardless, I’ll remember what you said.” To her, that was good enough.
“Okay!” Charles responded.
After returning to the condominium at night, Sophie sat on the couch and applied a facial mask. Ysabelle had been recommending this facial mask to Sophie, as it was very effective.
Sophie was not one for trouble. However, she finally decided to try the facial mask after Ysabelle tried so hard to recommend it to her.
When Tristan exited the shower, he saw Sophie applying a facial mask. This was the first time he had seen her doing such a thing in a long time. “Why do you suddenly think of applying a facial mask today?”
“Ysabelle told me this facial mask is quite effective. Do you want to try applying one as well?” While saying that, Sophie got up directly and took a piece of facial mask for Tristan.
“I don’t need it.” Tristan despised doing this kind of thing.
“Accompany me.”
Sophie’s gaze made it impossible for him to reject her. He had no choice but to surrender.
Two minutes later, Sophie helped Tristan apply a facial mask.
“How does it feel? Honestly, I think this facial mask is pretty good.” She found it to be good after only trying it for the first time. “Ysabelle said we should start taking care of our skin at our age.”
Tristan pulled her into his arms. He couldn’t help but feel amused by her statement. “You’re just twenty years old, and you’re in your prime. You already look the best without the need to do anything else.” At her current age, her skin was as tender as silk. She didn’t need to do this kind of skincare at all!
“Really?” Although Sophie knew Tristan was biased because he was her boyfriend, she still felt wonderful after hearing his words.
“Of course. Have I ever lied to you?” While he embraced her, his hands began to move around restlessly.
When he was alone with her recently, he found it more and more difficult to suppress his urge. It was beautiful being at the age of twenty, and it made people want to do anything without thinking about the consequences.
