Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

“Show me that one.”“I want that too.”Louisa was determined to mess with Sophie that day. She never liked Sophie.“This one
—”“I’ll take that too.”The commotion had even gotten the sales manager’s attention.“Ms. Yarborough, are you sure you want
everything? All these already add up to ten million.”I know the Yarborough family is wealthy, but I don’t think she has that much
allowance.“What do you mean? Are you implying I can’t afford them?” Louisa’s temper spiked at the sales manager’s
words.“Miss—”The sales manager shot Sophie an apologetic glance. Ms. Yarborough is a tough nut to crack.A cold grin
stretched across Sophie’s lips.“Louisa, are you sure you want all of it? Is your credit card limit enough?”“That’s none of your
business!”Louisa instantly took out her card and set it on the desk.“Wrap everything up for me.”The sales manager reached for
the card and went to the register to settle the bill. However, she returned shortly after.“Sorry, Ms. Yarborough, but your card limit
isn’t sufficient.”“What? How is that possible?” Louisa’s expression darkened.“Louisa, why don’t you just choose one from
those?”“I heard Ms. Yarborough would get her hands on everything that caught her eye. It’s a mere ten million. I’m sure she has
enough with her other cards.”Louisa was caught between a rock and a hard place. Without a choice, she took out her credit
card.Her heart ached when the sales manager swiped the card. This costs me ten million! How long will it take for me to settle
the debt? My monthly allowance is only around half a million.“Does Ms. Yarborough still wants to make more purchases?”
Sophie smirked.Louisa was infuriated at Sophie’s taunt, yet she couldn’t show it.Why am I seething here while victory is
seemingly on my side?“What are you smug about, Sophie?”“I’m not smug about anything. Oh, right. I forgot to tell you this store
belongs to the Tanner family.”Sophie had decided to visit a few jewelry stores under the Tanner Group to check on their sales.
She didn’t expect to run into the idiotic Louisa.“Thank you so much for contributing ten million to Tanner Group’s sales
today.”Louisa’s expression darkened even further.“Have a nice day.”Sophie was in an excellent mood. Louisa’s dark expression
efficiently lifted Sophie’s mood.“Also, about the ten million. Your father will probably want to have a chat with you about where
that money went. If he knew about your actions, I figured you wouldn’t be living your best life in the near future.”Sophie had a
thorough understanding of Louisa’s father.“Louisa, I didn’t know.” Willow was oblivious to the fact that the store was under the
Tanner Group.Without another word, Sophie whirled around and stomped away. I got tricked by that b**ch, Sophie.Willow
immediately chased after her.“Louisa, don’t be mad. We can ask for a refund.”“Ask for a refund? Sophie is still inside right now.
Won’t I just be humiliating myself if I ask for a refund now?”“What should we do then?” That’s ten million. It’s not a small
amount.“It’s fine. At most, I’d live a slightly difficult life for the next few months. Despite that, I can’t humiliate myself.”“Louisa, you
wouldn’t be in this state if it wasn’t for me.”Louisa wrapped her arm around Willow’s.“Don’t worry. Sophie was planning to drive a
wedge between us. I won’t let it happen. Willow, tomorrow is the birthday of the young miss from the Lombard family. My dad
had given me an invitation. I’ll bring you with me tomorrow.”Many people wanted to be acquainted with the Lombard family.The
Lombard family was planning a grand celebration for Ysabelle’s birthday. However, they only gave out a hundred invitations. Her
father had spent a lot of effort to get his hands on one.“You can do that?”The Lombard family is the real big boss. I’ll get to truly
enter the upper society if I can get acquainted with them.“Sure. The bracelet I bought today was a present for Ms.
Ysabelle.”“Okay, I should prepare a present for her too.”Maybe I can meet Tristan this time. If I can marry that legendary man,

that’ll be the peak of my life.After the girls had left the store, Sophie turned her gaze to the sales assistant.“What’s your
name?”“I’m Nora Baum,” Nora answered. I have nothing to fear. She’s just Sophie Tanner, the unwanted third daughter of the
Tanner family. This store does belong to the Tanner Group, but Sophie can’t do anything to me with her current status.“You fail as
a sales assistant.”“Haha, Ms. Sophie. You’re just a kid. It’s not up to you whether I fail or pass.” Nora had someone backing her
up, so she wasn’t afraid of Sophie.“Shut up, Nora!”The sales manager glared at Nora. Ms. Sophie can get Ms. Yarborough to
spend ten million here. How dare a sales assistant like Nora challenges her?Nora felt wronged.“I didn’t do anything wrong. I sold
ten million worth of goods today and brought a huge profit to the company. The company should give me a bonus. How can they
fire me?”“Fire her. The Tanner Group doesn’t need an employee like this.”“What did you say? What right do you have to give that
order? Do you truly think you’re a daughter of the Tanner family?”Sophie didn’t want to waste another breath with her and
summoned the store manager.“Your employees here aren’t eligible to work here. I’ll give you one month, and if they still behave
this way, I won’t keep anyone currently working here, including you.”“Miss, you—”The sales manager quickly whispered
something to the store manager.“I understand, Ms. Sophie.”The day after the next was the shareholders’ meeting. No one was
sure who would be the next CEO of the Tanner Group. The store manager didn’t dare to offend Sophie.“Have her fired
immediately.”Sophie turned around to leave.Nora’s face paled.“Manager, she’s just the unwanted third daughter of the Tanner
family. You won’t actually fire me, right?”“Go back first. I’ll see how it goes once the shareholders’ meeting ends.”No one knows
what changes will befall the organizational structure of the Tanner Group after the shareholders’ meeting. The same goes for Ms.
Sophie, so I won’t make any decision before the meeting.Sophie continued her shopping at the Monarch Mall and finally spotted
a unique rock in an antique store.That tiny rock was exquisite. It was clear and shiny on the surface, but inside was a picture of
the beauty of nature.Sophie figured it suited Ysabelle a lot.“You have good taste, Miss! This rock might look tiny, but it’s
priceless.”“Can I have a look?”The sales assistant took out the rock and gave it to Sophie.“How much is it?”“Fifteen million.”“Ten
million, and I’ll take it. If you agree, then pack it up for me.”
