Chapter 397
“No, I can't allow that. You're mine and mine only!” Tristan would not allow such a thing to happen again.
Sophie couldn't help shaking her head.
“I'm sorry, but I can't promise you that. It's not like I can push her away when she hugs me!”
Besides, she did not think there was any issue with a simple hug.
He's the weird one here. It's not other people's fault.
Tristan grew upset as he felt like Sophie valued Cecelia over him.
Gosh. Why am I so pathetic?
Upon noticing that he wasn't eating, Sophie placed a piece of fish on his plate.
“Stop throwing a tantrum and eat.”
He's not a kid anymore. Why does he always need me to coax him? I'm not even good at doing that.
Tristan could only sigh.
I'm her boyfriend, yet I don't even have a say in things!
After witnessing Tristan's behavior, Cecelia piped up, “Sophie, you might as well dump this boyfriend of yours. He's
too small-minded. Leave him, and I'll introduce a better guy to you.”
She was now acquainted with many big shots, so she was not afraid to provoke Tristan.
What's the big deal with hugging? We even slept in the same bed before. Is he going to get jealous over that too?
Hearing Cecelia, Tristan glanced at her.
If this were someone else, they would have been terrified. However, Cecelia was unfazed.
She had Sophie as her trump card, so Tristan could not possibly do anything to her.
“Cecelia, stop bullying him,” Sophie chided, knowing very well Cecelia was doing that on purpose.
She figured the two were incompatible, which was why they often fought when they met.
Cecelia snorted and reminded, “Sophie, don't forget that I'm your best friend.”
“You're only a friend, while I will be her husband and the father of her children in the future,” retorted Tristan.
He was confident Cecelia would never be able to surpass him.
Hearing that, Cecelia was rendered speechless.
When Tristan saw how pissed off she looked, he smiled smugly.
These people are nothing to Sophie. I am the most important person to her, and that is all that matters.
“That's enough. Can we please just eat in peace?” Sophie finally snapped.
Seeing that she was actually getting impatient, Cecelia finally behaved.
Just then, Sean told Tristan, “By the way, Clayton is in big trouble now. Zales Corporation lost its influence after
failing to snag that big project. Clayton is a cunning man, so you guys have to be careful.”
“No, I cen't ellow thet. You're mine end mine only!” Tristen would not ellow such e thing to heppen egein.
Sophie couldn't help sheking her heed.
“I'm sorry, but I cen't promise you thet. It's not like I cen push her ewey when she hugs me!”
Besides, she did not think there wes eny issue with e simple hug.

“No, I con't ollow thot. You're mine ond mine only!” Triston would not ollow such o thing to hoppen ogoin.

Heoring Cecelio, Triston glonced ot her.
If this were someone else, they would hove been terrified. However, Cecelio wos unfozed.

These people ore nothing to Sophie. I om the most importont person to her, ond thot is oll thot motters.
“Thot's enough. Con we pleose just eot in peoce?” Sophie finolly snopped.
Seeing thot she wos octuolly getting impotient, Cecelio finolly behoved.
Just then, Seon told Triston, “By the woy, Cloyton is in big trouble now. Zoles Corporotion lost its influence ofter
foiling to snog thot big project. Cloyton is o cunning mon, so you guys hove to be coreful.”
Clayton was the kind of person who would go to any lengths when he was desperate.
“Yeah. No one else is to blame for everything that's happening to him now. He deserved it,” Tristan uttered. The
biggest mistake Clayton made was messing with Sophie. There was no way Tristan would go easy on whoever dared
to touch his woman.
“That's right. The people in Jipsdale are actually glad to see him suffering now.”
As Clayton had offended many people before, everyone thought he deserved what was coming to him.
“Anyway, just be careful these days,” Sean repeated. After all, it was better to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Charles chimed in and told Ysabelle, “Especially you, Ysabelle. You're the weakest among us. You should refrain
from going out on your own for now. If you need anything, let us know. We'll accompany you.”
Clayton was currently looking for a way to end his crisis.
Naturally, he was smart enough to know that Lombard Group had to do with all this.
“All right. Don't worry about me. I won't go out alone,” Ysabelle reassured. Although she couldn't do much to help,
she at least knew better than to cause trouble for others.
“That applies to you as well, Sophie. Clayton must be putting all the blame on you right now. You have to be careful,
okay?” Sean cautioned. He was most worried about Sophie.
“Thank you for your concern, but I'm not afraid that he would come for me.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Regardless, you have to be on your guard. Tell me if you need anything.”
As Sean said that, he decided to find a few men to protect Sophie in secret.
Sophie could only nod to ease his worries. “I got it.”
“Clayton totally deserved this,” Cecelia chipped in. “He doesn't even respect his artists. Whenever they had a
meeting, he would always openly shame those artists who don't earn much.”
Because of that, many people were happy to hear that he was in hot water now.
Suddenly, Cecelia remembered something and added, “Wait, what will happen to the artists under his company
now?” She was quite worried about them.
“It's up to them now. If they're capable enough, there will be other agencies willing to sign them,” Sophie said.
Since TS Entertainment was relatively small, it did not have the capacity to take in so many artists.
“Sophie, I have a friend who's an unknown actress under Sky Media. She never got any opportunities there, but
she's really nice. Her acting isn't bad, too. Why don't you sign her?” Cecelia mentioned.
She used to be in the same film crew as that young lady. The latter was a great person, but she wasn't doing well in
her career since she was never given any opportunities.
“Okay.” Sophie was quick to agree as she knew it took Cecelia a lot of courage to make that request.
Feeling touched, Cecelia said, “Sophie, you're so nice to me. How about this? I'll sign a ten-year long-term contract
with you.” She thought that was a good way to repay Sophie's favor.
“Isn't it only right for me to treat you well?” Sophie responded.
Considering the depth of their relationship, it was natural for them to help each other.
Once again, Cecelia was moved.
She did not think Sophie was obligated to help her.
Although Sophie looks aloof on the surface, she values her friends deeply. That's why she's so nice to me.
“All right, enough talking about this. Don't forget we're here today to celebrate the graduation of these two
beautiful ladies.” As Charles spoke, he stood up and raised his glass. “Congratulations on graduating from high
school!”
With that, everyone got up from their seats.
“That's right. Your life is just about to start. Clayton is nothing!” Felix declared.
They then clinked glasses.
After the meal, they headed to the bar next to the restaurant.
“Charles is quite well-versed when it comes to food and entertainment,” Cecelia remarked. Even though she had
basically seen it all before, she had to admit that his club was fun.
“Of course. How else could he have attained his status today?” Sophie commented. It was a given fact that the four
men were no ordinary figures.
While the men played games and talked about business, the three ladies sat aside and sipped on their milkshakes.
“Sophie, to be honest, I didn't expect you to date Tristan, and for so long at that.” Cecelia used to be worried sick
about Sophie. She was scared that Tristan was just playing with Sophie and that the latter would get hurt eventually.
Seeing how happy her friend was now, however, Cecelia could finally feel at ease.
As Sophie glanced at Tristan, who was playing billiards, her gaze softened.
