Pursuing Her Chapter 215

Chapter 215 They Are Too Stupid for You “The Tanner family? Which one?” Walter hadn't heard of

the family that Winter mentioned before. “Oh, they're nobodies.” I don't think many guests who are

in attendance here know them either. “Sarah, what's going on?” Walter couldn't help but ask Sarah,

who quickly broke into a smile. “Old Mr. Quigley, Sophie is Ysabelle's classmate and a good friend of

hers. Hence, Tristan would always take them out. Since it's your birthday today, he has also brought

her along.” William wasn't aware of Tristan and Sophie's relationship yet. Considering how stubborn

and difficult he was and the fact that Tristan had yet to decide when Sophie was to meet the former,

Sarah had no choice but to deflect the matter away. “Oh, I see.” Walter didn’t inquire any further.

However, when Winter saw how protective Sarah was over Sophie, she was even more upset by it.

“That's right, Grandpa. However, the Tanner family are still nobodies.” Sarah was stumped. As an

open-minded person, she didn't care much about the Tanner family’s background. Unfortunately,

William was someone particular about family reputation, which caused her to grow concerned for

Sophie and Tristan’s future. After all, it wasn't going to be easy for William to approve of Sophie. The

fact that she was still so young didn't help matters at all. Meanwhile, when Sarah and Winter were

finally alone, Winter declared, “Sarah, I've always supported you all this while.” Reading between the

lines, Winter was insinuating that Sarah was obliged to help her. Nevertheless, Sarah laughed at her

words. “Winter, I'm well aware that your brother and I have no future together.

Thus, I've already given up.” As a member of the Lombard family, Sarah didn't like being threatened.

Her words caused Winter's face to lose all color. “Sarah, that's not what I meant. I just feel that you

can empathize with what I'm going through, which is the frustration of not being able to be with the

person I love.” Despite her frantic explanation, Winter didn't expect her comments to worsen the

situation. “All right, I'm going to look for Tristan and the others.” Sarah was in no mood to hear

another word from Winter. Juan has someone he likes, and it's time for me to let go too. After all, a

woman's youth is precious, and I no longer want to waste any more time on him. Watching Sarah's

leaving silhouette and thinking about how even the exceptional Sarah had failed, Winter grew more

anxious. Within their circle, every parent had only words of praise for Sarah. In fact, many of them

saw Sarah as a role model for their children. Unfortunately, even a paragon of feminine virtue like

her has been decisively defeated in love. What should I do to make Sophie disappear from Mr.

Tristan’s side?

Winter clenched her fists. When Sarah rejoined the group, Sophie, Felix, Sean, and Ysabelle were in

the midst of playing poker. At the sight of Sarah, Ysabelle called out, “Aunt Sarah, come over here.

I'm no match for them at all!” She was being crushed at the game given how intelligent the other

three were. The smiling Sarah stood behind Ysabelle and guided her. After a few rounds, Sarah took

an even greater liking to Sophie. All this while, she was well aware of her brother's extraordinary

intelligence. And after playing a few hands against Sophie, she, too, came to realize that the latter

was just as terrifyingly smart. Despite playing in a half-hearted manner, Sophie had put out every

card with a deft hand.

Her ability to take into account everyone else's card while laying hers out was not only a testament

to her intelligence but also her impressive memory. “My God, Mr. Tristan, your girlfriend is showing

us no mercy.” After a few hands, all of them were decisively crushed. “Sophie, why are you so good

at this game?” Ysabelle complained. “All right, I'll go easy on you the next round.” True to her words,

Sophie played her cards without even looking. Unfortunately, the three of them still ended up being

thrashed. “D*mn, Sophie, are you sure you're cutting us slack? The way you're playing is just too

much,” Ysabelle grumbled. “She did,” Tristan commented in a nonchalant tone. He was standing

behind Sophie the entire time and was certain of the fact. “What?” Ysabelle couldn't believe her ears.

“I said, Sophie already went easy on you. Otherwise, you wouldn't even have lasted this long.”

Tristan then pulled Sophie up from her seat. “All right now, stop playing with them. They're not

smart enough to be worthy opponents for you,” Tristan remarked haughtily. Ysabelle was

speechless. Fine. Since Tristan was just stating the truth, she didn't dare comment any further. Felix,

too, was equally stumped. Isn't Mr. Tristan going too far with his gloating?

Sean was also blown away. D*mn, both of them are monsters! Not only is Tristan exceedingly smart,

but even his girlfriend is of the same caliber. Only Sarah wore a smile across her face. She finally

understood why her brother had fallen into Sophie's grasp. Even she was captivated by the young

lady after just spending a short time with her. “All right, since we're not playing anymore, let's go

chat instead. Ysabelle, Sophie, come along.” Sarah led the girls away, leaving the three men behind.

“Old Mr. Quigley still favors Juan and wants us to let him join us.” The profit for the project after we

have painstakingly gone through the hardest process is guaranteed. What was he thinking that he

insisted on Juan's participation now?” “Charles’ grandfather must be losing his touch with age.

Considering how obvious the choice between Charles and Juan is, how can he make such a mistake

in his judgment?” After all the effort the four of us have put in, how can he barge in to enjoy the

fruits of our labor? Does he take us for fools? “He must be dreaming,” Felix added. “By the way, isn't

Sarah infatuated with Juan all this while? Would she be—" “No, she’s not someone who makes

decisions based on her emotion.” Tristan was confident in his sister. “Since when does Mr. Tristan

back down on someone else's account?” Only Sophie was the exception for him. After all, even

Sarah, his own sister, would never be reason enough for him to change his mind. Meanwhile, Sarah

found a quiet place together with Sophie and Ysabelle. Even though they weren't keen on such

social events, age has helped them accept their situation better. “Aunt Sarah, I think I saw Juan just

now.

He must have come back.” Ysabelle was displeased at the mention of Juan. “Oh.” As for Sarah, she

noticed that her heart didn't hurt as much as before at the sound of his name. Nonetheless, despite

her desire to avoid trouble, trouble would still find its way to her. The moment Yvette, Juan's current

girlfriend, saw Sarah, she approached the latter immediately. “Sarah, it's a surprise to see you here!”

Yvette exclaimed smugly. So what if the Quigley family doesn't accept me? As long as Juan doesn't

leave me, no one can do anything about it. At the sight of Yvette, Sarah—whose mood drastically

changed—responded with a cold hum.

Although Yvette has won the battle, what right does she have to gloat in front of me? “Sarah, I

would like to speak to you in private. Is this a good time?” Yvette gently swept her hair aside. “What

is there to talk about between us?” Sarah found no reason to be cordial. If she wants to play the

victim card, she can be my guest. However, it has nothing to do with me at all.
