Chapter 717 In Consideration Of Charles
Since Tristan and Charles were clearly best friends, Tristan couldn't avoid meeting Winter when she returned.
Tristan looked at the lady in front of him. It had been more than a year since they had last met, and she seemed to
have matured a lot.
“Winter, since you're back, you must behave yourself and not cause any trouble. You should know that no one can
protect you if you stir up another trouble.” If anything happened, Tristan wouldn't even take his friendship with
Charles into consideration anymore.
“Yeah, I know,” Winter replied. The person she liked wholeheartedly didn't have any feelings for her at all. She had
just returned, yet he didn't even express any concern for her. All he did was warn her.
Sophie held Tristan's hand. What is the point of him saying this? Since he has already promised Charles that he'd
allow Winter to come back, there's no need to make a scene like this. Winter can't cause any big trouble, anyway.
Tristan went to take a seat with Sophie. Winter didn't move, as she had to take a few deep breaths to calm herself
down.
Naturally, Winter knew about Jennifer's matter and knew that the latter liked Tristan. Tristan had always been a cold
man. However, Winter had never expected him to destroy the Whitley family directly because of Sophie.
“I dislike this kind of occasion,” Tristan whispered in Sophie's ear when they were both sitting on the couch.
“All right, now. What are you even doing now? Just consider this a favor for Charles! He only wants us not to do
anything to Winter. That's all!” Winter is Charles' sister, after all. We should be more tolerant toward her.
“I just don't like her.” Previously, Tristan could have still ignored Winter. But now, he felt annoyed whenever he saw
her. Whoever harmed Sophie was unforgivable.
Soon, Sean and Felix also arrived. They knew that Charles had deliberately arranged this gathering for Winter, so
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthey said nothing much.
Since Felix was here, of course, he brought Ysabelle along.
“Sophie, do you really plan to forgive Winter?” Ysabelle still couldn't forgive what Winter had done back then. This
woman should stay abroad forever. I genuinely don't think she'll give up. As long as she has made a decision, she
won't give up easily at all.
“I don't hold a deep grudge against her. She's just an unimportant person. We don't have to take her to heart.”
Sophie was magnanimous.
“All right, then. I hope she'll behave better this time.” Ysabelle was still worried. “By the way, is Old Mr. Quigley
actually sick? This can't be his plan, can it?” Maybe he pretended to be sick just so that Winter could return!
“He really is sick!” Sophie answered. They had invited Arius over to Walter's place before. Sophie had even asked
Arius to check on Walter's situation in consideration of her friendship with Charles. They found out that Walter was
genuinely ill.
“Oh, I see!” Ysabelle replied. If that's the case, then it's completely understandable for Winter to come back. Now, I
just hope she'll behave herself.”On behalf of Winter, thank you, Sophie. Thank you for your kind forgiveness!” If it
wasn't for Sophie, Tristan would never have agreed to let Winter return.
“Don't mention it.” This matter really didn't affect Sophie much, which was why she had made such a decision.
“Winter, you should propose a toast to thank Sophie as well. We're all friends, so let bygones be bygones.” Charles
had no choice but to suggest this, as he knew that Tristan still felt uncomfortable. Winter was still Charles' sister
regardless of what happened. He still wished she could stay here properly.
Winter tightened her grip on the wine glass and silently took a deep breath. “Ms. Tanner, I've made many mistakes
in the past. I hope you can forgive me.”
Expressing those words took a lot of energy out of Winter. After all, she was the third daughter of the Quigley
family. Ever since she was young, everyone in the family had doted on her. Yet, now she had to apologize to
someone she disliked the most. It was impossible for her not to feel uncomfortable.
“That's enough, Charles. There's no need for these unnecessary actions.” Although Sophie responded that way, she
still took a sip of wine.
Tristan couldn't help but furrow his brows when he saw her drinking. “You're not feeling well, so you shouldn't be
drinking right now.”
“I'm fine.” It had been a while since Sophie had consumed alcohol. Truth be told, she really missed this feeling.
Winter straight up drank all the wine in the glass in one gulp. Her heart was aching terribly. Why can't I forget about
him no matter how much time has passed? How is my heart still aching so much?
After that, it was as if Winter was invisible. All she could do was sit at the side quietly and watch how Tristan
pampered Sophie.
Meanwhile, she could only drink glass after glass of alcohol.
Sean could only shake his head after seeing Winter acting that way. Looks like she hasn't let it go. But what can she
do even if she hasn't let go? She's no match for Sophie at all.
“Sean, what should we do now? Winter is making me worried when she acts like this,” said Charles. If Winter
doesn't give up, there's no way others can help her.
“None of us can do anything about this matter. The only thing you can do is to keep Winter away from Sophie and
don't let her provoke Sophie.” Tristan and Sophie had already decided to get married. During this time, it was easier
for Winter to get triggered.
“To be honest, I really don't think Winter should have returned at this time,” Sean said, thinking that her coming
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmback during this period would only make things worse.
“But you know how sick my grandpa is. He just wants Winter to come back and keep him company. If I can't even
do this for him, then how do I still...” Charles replied.
Sean nodded in understanding. “Anyway, you should do as you see fit. If Winter still dares to do anything to hurt
Sophie, none of us can help her.” He briefly analyzed the current situation. As for other matters, there was no point
in talking about them right now. Winter had already returned, and it was impossible to send her abroad again now.
Later, Winter had drunk too much and went to the restroom and puked.
Since she went to the ladies restroom, Charles couldn't go inside and could merely ask for Ysabelle's help. He had
no choice but to plead, “Please, Ysabelle. Just go inside and take a look! I don't know what will happen to her when
she's alone in there!”
Ysabelle shook her head. “I don't want to. I'm sure you know that I dislike her, Charles.” So what if she's Charles'
sister? I just don't like her.
“Ysabelle, just allow me to owe you a favor. If you need any help in the future, I'll do whatever I can!” Charles said.
“Let's go to the restroom, too!” Sophie stood up right then.
Seeing that even Sophie had gotten up, Ysabelle had no choice but to get up as well. “Why is she so troublesome?”
Winter is just using the restroom. What else could happen? But since Sophie is going, I should follow her. Who
knows if Winter will act crazy again and hurt Sophie?
When Sophie and Ysabelle entered the restroom, they saw Winter slumping on the floor in a wretched state. They
assumed Winter was exhausted after throwing up.
Before Sophie could speak, Ysabelle immediately approached Winter and asked, “Are you all right?”
Winter lifted her head, her face as pale as a ghost. Ysabelle jumped in fright when she saw Winter in that state.
“Sophie, I'm sure you're feeling smug right now, huh?” Winter asked slowly.
Sophie didn't know how to respond to that.
“Seriously, Winter, are you not done yet? Now that you've finally returned, can't you just behave yourself?” Ysabelle
piped up. What's the point of talking about all these right now?
