Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 80 Feels Like Elopement
Cecelia was able to understand what she needed to do swiftly, as expected from the newly crowned queen of movies.It only took
two hours in the morning and the advertisement was half done.“Cecelia is really beautiful! I never thought our products are that
classy before, but when it’s applied on Cecelia, I don’t think it’s inferior to the major brands from overseas at all!”“That’s right! Ms.
Sophie is incredible! With so many famous directors in the country waiting to work with Cecelia, I couldn’t believe Ms. Sophie
could talk her into working with us!”“Totally! Ms. Sophie is amazing!” Even Wilma couldn’t help but praise Sophie.She had
understood many things in the industry after working there for years. When you’re at the top, people will come and butter you up.
However, when you get unlucky and fell from grace, those same people will kick you when you’re down. Even though our
company’s reputation has fallen off a cliff, Cecelia probably agreed to take on the job because of Ms. Sophie!“How are things
going?” Sophie asked.She arrived there by taxi after school ended at one in the afternoon.Upon hearing her voice, Wilma turned
around and saw her lazy eyes. “You’re here, Ms. Sophie! The filming is going smoothly. Ms. Lance is incredible!”“That she is.”
The edge of Sophie’s lips curved upward a little. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have asked her to help me out. ”She’s worthy of Transfix
Cosmetics.”“Why are you only here now, Sophie?” When Cecelia saw Sophie, the former immediately rushed over to the latter’s
side. She didn’t at all look like the queen of movies when she did that.“You should be glad I was able to come at all,” Sophie
replied. Don’t you know how busy I am?“Stop being such a bully.” Even though Cecelia appeared cold and elegant in front of
outsiders, she would pout like a child in front of Sophie.“Do you think your fans will still love you if they see you like this?”“My
fans aren’t this shallow! What they love is the beauty within me.”“I bought some food you love. Go and eat them now! We need
to wrap up the shooting as soon as possible.” Sophie handed the food she bought to her.“Thanks!” Cecelia smiled.Sophie
furrowed her eyebrows when she suddenly heard noises outside of the studio.When Wilma saw her furrowed eyebrows, she
said, “I’ll take a look at what’s happening outside.”Upon leaving the studio, she saw Rachel and a couple of other betrayers
approaching her.“We’re filming an advertisement right now, Rachel. We don’t welcome you here. Please leave.”“Filming an
advertisement? Wilma, please. Are you going to tell me you still refuse to give up? How are you going to film one without an
ambassador or director? Don’t tell me you’re doing it yourself.” Rachel was doubtful because she didn’t see any news about it on
the internet.“You— We do have an ambassador!” One of Wilma’s subordinates couldn’t hold back anymore.“Who is it?” Rachel,
naturally, didn’t believe it.“It’s Cecelia, Cecelia Lance.”“Ha!” Rachel sneered, “Why don’t you say it’s Jennifer Lawrence instead?
Don’t you know it’s a bad idea to be overambitious, Wilma? Cecelia is a famous movie star. Even if she agrees to star in an
advertisement, it’s more likely she’ll do it for the big, international brands! Even Lorelei is unwilling to film an advertisement for
the current Transfix Cosmetics.”“What’s going on?” When Sophie walked out and saw Rachel, her eyebrows furrowed.She had a
photographic memory, and she met Rachel once before, so she had some impression of her.“I’ll ask the security guards to come
right away, Ms. Sophie,” Wilma assured.“Ah, so it’s Ms. Sophie!” Rachel sneered. I can tell Tanner Group doesn’t like her.
Otherwise, Transfix Cosmetics wouldn’t have been handed to her.“You have a problem with me?” Sophie glanced at her.Rachel

wanted to say something, but when she met Sophie’s cold look, a chill ran down her spine. The words got caught in Rachel’s
throat. No matter how hard she tried, she could not voice them out.“It’s nothing.” She squeezed the words out of her mouth.
“We’re only here to take a look at how you all are doing! After all, we used to be colleagues. There’s nothing wrong with that,
right? Anyway, we should go! Ms. Crawford should be here at any second now!”The reason Rachel came to visit Wilma and tried
to stir up trouble was to vent her anger. Lorelei only had her debut not too long ago! How dare she act all snobbish and
arrogant!“It’s windy outside, Ms. Sophie. You should go in!” Wilma suggested.Jipsdale’s temperature was currently sitting at a
single-digit degree Celsius, and Sophie only wore a white hoodie with a pair of jeans.Sophie returned to the studio while Wilma
followed behind.Even though Sophie was wearing an outfit of a common brand, her demeanor and aura wasn’t something other
people could copy.Upon entering the studio, Sophie saw Cecelia had finished eating the food and was drinking small sips of
water.“I still need to go to class in the afternoon, so I won’t be accompanying you. Leave in secret once the filming is over.” She
didn’t want to announce the matter to the public yet.Cecelia was speechless. Only Sophie has the guts to speak to me like
that.At almost half-past two in the afternoon, Sophie ambled out of Senior Class 8.The moment Ysabelle saw her, she
immediately pulled her outside.“What’s wrong?” Sophie was confused.“Let’s skip classes today, Soph!” Ysabelle continued to
pull Sophie down the stairs, as though she was being chased by ghosts.“Why?”“Do you really need an excuse to skip
class?”Ysabelle raised her head and stared at the wall that was over two meters tall. Are we really going to climb over the wall?
Will our bones break if we fall?Sophie stared at her friend nonchalantly. She’s been talking about climbing walls and escaping
class for a while now. She’s the one who said we can’t escape through the front gate.“Don’t you want to climb the wall? Do it!”
she urged.Ysabelle shrunk slightly and gulped. “How about—”Before she could say she wanted to give up, Sophie ran backward,
then forward, and used the momentum to leap onto the wall.It shocked Ysabelle completely. Her jumping ability is
remarkable!“What are you waiting for?” Sophie spoke as she sat carefreely on the wall.Ysabelle grabbed her hand. Wow, my
heart is beating really fast. Why does this feel like we’re eloping?Sophie pulled her friend up and helped Ysabelle sit on the
wall.As they sat together, Ysabelle giggled. “It’s only until today that I feel like my high-school life is complete, Soph. It won’t feel
right if I don’t skip classes at least once in high school.”Sophie rolled her eyes. Sometimes, I really have no idea what she’s
thinking. Well, I guess she got her wish.“Let’s go down!” she said.Only then did Ysabelle glance downward. “I don’t have the guts
to.”“Don’t you want to fulfill your high-school dreams? How can it be complete without you breaking at least a bone or two?”“Hey,
you two! What are you doing?” Suddenly, a security guard on patrol saw the two of them sitting on the wall.“What are you doing,
Ysabelle?” Tristan asked.Tristan and Felix saw Ysabelle sitting on the wall after they exited their parked car.Felix felt like his
heart was about to jump out of his chest.“Go down! He’ll catch you.” Seeing how Felix was already standing below, Sophie
directly pushed her friend down.“Ah!” Ysabelle closed her eyes and screamed. Am I really going to break my bones?“Eh? It
doesn’t hurt at all.” She only opened her eyes when she felt the warmth of a person’s embrace.Though, perhaps it would be
better if she didn’t open her eyes because she had to see Felix’s flustered and exasperated face.“You’re not coming down?”
Tristan opened his arms and spoke to Sophie.
