Chapter 303
Naughty Stuff “That’s enough. Why is an adult like you arguing with two young ladies? We’ve yet to get
off work, so why are you in such a hurry?” another female staff member chimed in, stopping the
argument. As a matter of fact, she knew Sophie and Ysabelle were not late. Thus, her colleague did
not have to make things difficult for them. Ysabelle harrumphed as she could not be bothered to deal
with the rude staff member. The latter could sulk in the corner by herself if she were annoyed. Her
anger would not affect Ysabelle and Sophie, anyway. Then, Ysabelle took the suitcases and decided to
sit on the couch to rest while waiting for Sophie. She chose to wait there obediently instead of
becoming a third wheel. Tristan had just walked over after parking the car when he saw Sophie striding
out. Upon walking to her side, he asked, “Where’s Ysabelle? Let’s go eat.” He planned to have dinner
together. During his last visit to Summerbank, he went to a restaurant that served excellent dishes, and
he believed Sophie might like that place. “Mr. Tristan, I’m sorry. As we have to leave for the training
camp now, I don’t think we can have dinner with you.” Sophie felt apologetic. He drove her and
Ysabelle here for more than three hours, yet she could not even have a meal with him in return. “I see!”
Sure enough, Tristan’s expression darkened a little right after those words fell from her lips. “You girls
should go ahead! I’ll come and pick you two up after the camp,” he continued. It was impossible for him
not to feel disappointed, but he could only accept the reality since he knew Sophie did not mean for it to
happen.
“Then, I’ll go back inside now. We must leave immediately.” She knew she would have to leave him
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsooner or later. “All right.” At that moment, Tristan looked like a puppy abandoned by its owner. Sophie
had the urge to pet him, and she did so by throwing herself into his arms and hugging his waist. “I’ll go
back once I’m done here,” she said, trying her best to comfort him. “Mmh.” Tristan, who was sad at
first, perked up once she hugged him. “Do your best!” Although he knew he should let her go, he was
reluctant to do so and wanted to continue talking with her. “I will. Be careful on your way back. Also,
remember to call me once you get there! But then, I don’t know if I can answer your call. After all,
training camps like this will usually confiscate our phones.” Tristan brushed his fingers across her
dainty chin. “Okay, don’t worry!” He would be fine since it was not his first time driving long distances.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Sophie stood on her tiptoes and kissed his lips briefly. “I’ll go inside
now,” she said. The young woman did not know she would feel so reluctant to part with someone one
day. It seemed to her that she was falling deeper and deeper for Tristan. That was why she was
growing attached to him. Before Sophie could turn around to walk away, Tristan kissed her again.
“Two weeks is too long!” he lamented. It was too much to picture not having her by his side for the
following two weeks, so he wanted to kiss her deeper to have enough to reminisce about whenever he
missed her. “What is taking her so long? Didn’t she say ten minutes? This is too much!” The female
staff member who argued with the two young women got impatient when she saw Sophie had not
returned after ten minutes, so she went out to see what the latter was doing. To her surprise, she saw
Sophie kissing a handsome man passionately. The female staff member was completely dumbfounded.
This man is way too handsome! He’s even better looking than the male celebrities in the entertainment
industry! In that instant, she grew jealous of Sophie. She’s so young, yet she’s already acting like a sl*t,
kissing a man like that in a public space. How shameless! After the heated kiss, Tristan let go of
Sophie. “Go now! I’ll come and pick you up after the camp,” he said gently. “Okay.” At that moment,
Sophie had flushed cheeks. The look in her eyes was alluring, making his heart race for her
uncontrollably. When Sophie returned inside, the female staff member could not resist the urge to mock
her. “I thought you had something important to do, but you only asked for more time to be with a man!
Is this why you came to our training camp? If you came here to seduce men, you shouldn’t take up a
spot. Don’t you know how many people are interested in coming to our camp?”
Her words were vicious due to her overwhelming jealousy. Sophie frowned. She truly disliked the
female staff member. “You are in no place to judge if I’m qualified to join this camp.” With that, Sophie
went straight inside. She didn’t have to quarrel more with someone like the latter. Sophie went to
Ysabelle, who took in her countenance and asked curiously, “What’s the matter? You look like you’ve
done some naughty stuff with Uncle Tristan.” Young girls were naturally interested in things like that,
especially Ysabelle. Instead of answering her question, Sophie took her suitcase and urged, “Let’s go.
Time’s almost up!” I suddenly regret coming to this training camp. If I had known it would be like this, I
wouldn’t have listened to Mr. Elswick. Then, I wouldn’t have to leave Jipsdale for two weeks. Two
weeks! That’s way too long. The other female staff member led the duo to the bus. Since they were the
last two students to head to the camp, the bus was relatively emptier than before. Sophie and Ysabelle
sat in the same row. “Sophie, tell me the truth! What do you think about Uncle Tristan? I’ve never seen
him treat a girl so well!” Ysabelle continued, “You see, Winter didn’t do anything to hurt you physically.
All she did was say something horrible, yet Uncle Tristan sent her to Alendor!” Everyone knew Winter
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwas the dearest third daughter of the Quigley family.
It was also due to that incident that Walter frequently went to their place, but Tristan refused to
withdraw his decision, no matter what the elderly man said. That had Walter feeling somewhat
dejected. “I know.” Sophie agreed with what Ysabelle said. It was true that Tristan treated her well. She
was a human with emotions, so she would be lying if she said she did not realize Tristan treated her
differently from other women. “Then what about you? Don’t you feel attracted to him? Do you like Uncle
Tristan? No. I should ask you if you’re in love with Uncle Tristan instead. Are you?” Ysabelle believed
Sophie must have developed some feelings for Tristan, considering that he had spent so much time
pursuing her. Otherwise, Sophie would not give him that many chances to approach her. “Aren’t you
tired? Get some rest if you are. I think it will take a long time until we reach the camp!” Sophie did not
want to discuss such a topic with her, so she closed her eyes to rest. Ysabelle was rendered
speechless. Is Sophie avoiding the question?
Forget it. If she isn’t willing to tell me more, I shouldn’t press her any further. I am her best friend, after
all. Uncle Tristan will never be as important as Sophie is to me. It took them more than an hour to arrive
at the training camp from the registration venue. That time around, the camp was held in a mountain
resort. The bus had just pulled up before the resort when Ysabelle spotted Bailey. Don’t tell me Bailey
has been waiting for us here. Isn’t it too much of a coincidence that he is the first person we see?
Ysabelle nudged Sophie, then pointed in Bailey’s direction. “Sophie, Bailey is here to pick you up!” The
former did not exaggerate her words. It was clear that Bailey came to pick Sophie up. Frowning, Sophie
looked in that direction, and sure enough, she saw Bailey. He must have arrived here much earlier than
us! But then, it’s not surprising. Whitlea must have placed high importance on this summer camp.
