Chapter 75 Too Brutal
âNo.â Tristan said nothing at all.'m no one to her, so what right do I have to ask so much of her?
Whoever she wants to be with is definitely her freedom!Truth be told, he actually understood all
that. However, at the thought that Sophie might not belong to him, he would grow terribly
frustrated, even if that possibility was negligible.âOh, okay."In the courtyard outside, a group of
teenage girls was dancing in classical attire Every single move exuded grace.They snagged Sophie's
attention, so she didn't bother trying to speculate what exactly was wrong with Tristan.Sigh!At that,
Tristan couldn't help sighing. There's still a long way to go before I win her over. Never had I
imagined that such a day would come for me!When the dance ended, a young maiden in white and
wearing a veil came out to play the harp.Right then, Blossom came with a few other servers and
served the food.âEnjoy the food, Mr. Tristan, Ms. Tanner. Just call me if you need anything
else.â"Sure!"Tristan picked up the bottle of sherry on the table."This bottle is really unique!"The
bottle was similar to those in historical movies on television, but it was even more
exquisite.âYeah. Tristan opened the bottle of sherry and poured some for Sophie as well.âTry some.
The most famous item here in Blossom Garden is its sherry.ââAre you trying to get me drunk, Mr.
Tristan? What do you want to do?"Sophie arched an eyebrow, her eyes stunning beyond words.â
want to do everything, but I canât do anything.âShe was young, so he wouldn't do anything to her
no matter how fevered he was.âl was just joking.âSophie liked that place a lot. She picked up the
crystal glass and took a sip.Sure enough, the taste was superb. It was incredibly mellow, a different
taste compared to red wine.In a single gulp, she downed the sherry in the crystal glass."Can I have
more?"Without commenting, Tristan poured her some more sherry.âSophie, it's not appropriate for
a girl to drink in front of men. You must learn to protect yourself. In the future, donât drink with
other men.ââOkay. I'll drink with you in the future!â Sophie deliberately declared with a smile.Tristan
didnât mind though he was aware that she was intentionally teasing him."Donât just drink. The food
at Blossom Garden is also top-notch.âHe took some vegetables for her.âGo ahead and eat. You don't
need to worry about me.â Actually, Sophie wasn't all that hungry. But she really liked the sherry.l
wonder if Ms. Blossom will be willing to sell me a few bottles.âMr. Tristan, how's your relationship
with Ms. Blossom?"âWhat relationship?â Tristan frowned, for he didn't want her to
misunderstand.However, it turned out that he was the one who misinterpreted her remark.âIt's just
that I'm pretty fond of the sherry here. Please have Ms. Blossom sell me a few bottles."At once,
Tristan was stumped.âBlossom Garden doesn't sell its sherry. Whoever wants to drink it can only
come here."Even if the president himself came, the same principle applied.âEven you can't get it,
huh?â Disappointment showed on Sophie's face.At the sight of her crestfallen expression, distress
inundated Tristan.âIt's okay. I'm in Jipsdale now anyway, so I can come whenever I
like!"Subsequently, Sophie poured herself another glass of sherry.âWhat an alcoholic!"Tristan didnât
expect her alcohol tolerance to be so high that she seemed fine even after drinking a few
glasses.âDon't drink so much. It kicks in very strongly. Once, Felix got drunk at Blossom
Garden.â"Okay."Having drunk quite a bit, Sophie went over to the window to watch the performance
outside.Unexpectedly, she saw Juan with Letitia. This time, it was only the two of them.Well, he
recovers pretty quickly.Juan went into the adjacent private room with Letitia."What's
wrong?"âEverythingâs fine. I just spotted someone I know. Wait for me here for a while.âSophie
stood up. Back then, I didn't get to settle the score with Letitia because I bumped into him and the
others.Meanwhile, Juan had just taken his seat when Letitia snuggled up to him.âMr. Quigley, didnât
you say that I could act in Mr. Quelchâs new movie? The filming is about to start. When are you
going to make the arrangements?âAs she spoke, her hands weren't idle either, roaming about his
chest.âIf you serve me well, I'll have you take the female lead directly and give you the role.âLetitia
had quite the looks. Otherwise, he would have gotten sick of her after fooling around with her for a
month.However, after seeing Sophie at Nocturnal, he felt that she was too vulgar.When Sophie
opened the door, she was greeted by the sight of them in a scandalous posture.âWho the hell dares
to disrupt me?"The instant Juan lifted his head, he saw Sophie eyeing him with a half-smile.That
expression of hers had Juan stiffening immediately.âI'm sorry, Ms. Tanner. I didnât know that it was
you."He was so stricken that his face had gone pale.Letitia, on the other hand, quickly straightened
her clothes when she saw Sophie entering the room.âPlease step out for a moment, Mr. Quigley.â
Sophie was exceedingly courteous.âSure! I'll leave right away!"Juan was truly terrified, for her
methods were too brutal. Wanting to leave as well, Letitia got to her feet. Alas, Sophie blocked her
path.âYou're a media student, right, Ms. Gatrell?""What do you want?â Letitia tried her best to
appear brave.This is a society governed by law, so she won't dare to do anything to me.âDo you still
remember the brand Transfix Cosmetics? I'm sure you haven't forgotten about it."Letitia went silent
for a moment.So, sheâs someone from Tanner Group.âWho are you? And what exactly do you want?
Ms. Tanner, I don't care who you are, but it's a fact that I was almost disfigured because of Transfix
Cosmeticsâ makeup!âStriding up to her, Sophie grasped her chin and turned her face this way and
that.âYour face looks perfectly fine to me! Ms. Gatrell, you're really gutsy to frame Tanner
Group!â"How dareâ"Letitia wanted to argue further, but she couldn't utter a single word under
Sophie's gaze.â came to seek you out today to give you a final chance. You'd best clarify the matter
personally. Otherwise, you'll know the consequences.âFear struck Letitia.Sophie then spun around to
leave."Don't try to play tricks with me. Otherwise, I'll make it so that you can never make a living in
the entertainment industry!"Nowadays, all girls who had some beauty wanted to join the
entertainment industry.âDamn it!"Back then, it was because Letitia saw that Tanner Group was on a
downhill decline that she dared to utilize Transfix Cosmetics.She played the victim, but she also
gained much popularity from that.Never had she imagined that present situation.If I admit that I
framed Transfix Cosmetics, I won't be able to stay in the entertainment industry anymore!When
Sophie returned to the private room where Tristan was, she was greeted by the sight of him
smoking by the window."Give me a cigarette as welll"Hearing that, Tristan promptly tossed his
cigarette into the trash can.Sophie was dumbfounded.âI'm not smoking anymore, so you shouldn't
smoke either.â Tristan felt that he needed to lead by example in front of her.âDo you think Letitia will
listen to you?"She's pretty good at kicking up a fuss.âIt doesnât matter if she doesn't.â Sophie smiled
nonchalantly.âWhatever floats your boat." Tristan didn't bother speaking further.Sure enough, Letitia
sought out a journalist the next day and revealed the despicable act of a heinous capitalist
threatening her, an inconsequential character with no one backing her up.As soon as that news
came out, many verified accounts on Twitter started hyping it up.In the blink of an eye, Transfix
Cosmetics and Tanner Group became the talk of the town.
