Chapter 81 Be Good
Sophie was speechless. The wall’s not even that high. I’m not afraid at all, okay?“Which class do you belong to? Don’t do
anything stupid. We can talk this out.” The security thought Sophie wanted to end her life and was panicking already.Sophie
jumped down from the wall without turning back.Tristan was stubborn and insisted on catching her.He knew how physically
capable she was, but he still couldn’t help but worry when he saw her performing such a dangerous act.Sophie coughed,
reminding him to put herself down.However, it was as though he didn’t hear her at all as he carried her to his silver
Lamborghini.“I can walk by myself, Mr. Tristan,” she uttered. It’s not like I don’t have legs.Tristan didn’t let her go until she was
inside the car. “Don’t do anything that dangerous again.”On the other side, Felix had finally found his voice again, though it was
slightly trembling. “You’re getting bolder now, Ysabelle! You even know how to climb a wall now!” If I wasn’t here, what would’ve
happened if she broke her arm or leg?Ysabelle dug into her ears. “Why are you speaking so loudly, Felix? I feel like I’m turning
deaf! I was just climbing the wall so I can skip classes. Why are you panicking so hard?”“I don’t think you should stay with
Sophie in the future anymore, Ysabelle. You’ve learned some bad habits. Look at you right now—”“I’m warning you, Felix. Don’t
you dare speak ill of Soph. Otherwise, I’ll stop talking to you.” She was very insistent on protecting Sophie. No one is allowed to
badmouth her, not even Felix!Seeing how serious she appeared, Felix shut his mouth. Who do you think I’m doing this
for?“Hmph!” She then jerked open the door to the passenger seat and went in.He had no choice but to be their driver
resignedly.“Why did you two come here, Uncle Tristan? Is Lombard Group going bankrupt? You seem to be very free lately!”
Ysabelle asked.Felix was speechless. Only she has the guts to say something like that. Who else will look forward to their family
going bankrupt?“Shut your mouth, Ysabelle,” Tristan ordered.“Well, you see, Letitia is causing trouble again, and this time, she’s
gunning for Sophie. Mr. Tristan was worried about Sophie, so he came looking for her.” As Tristan’s subordinate, Felix had to
speak if his boss didn’t want to.The moment he finished, he could feel an air of coldness coming from his back.That was Tristan
threatening him.“No need to care about what those comments are saying, Soph,” Ysabelle comforted.It was because she saw
Letitia’s recording that she wanted to bring her friend with her and skip school. She didn’t want her friend to feel down about what
the inflammatory comments were saying, whether it came from Letitia’s fans or just random netizens.Things got so bad that even
their classmates were cursing Sophie.It made her feel awful, but she alone couldn’t control what other people say about Sophie,
which was why she suggested skipping school.Sophie pulled out her phone, logged into Twitter, and saw Letitia’s post that
read: I’m really afraid of dying!Below that sentence was the audio file of the “conversation” they had at the restaurant.Even
though Sophie only uttered a single sentence in the recording, and she didn’t admit to anything, everyone believed Letitia was
the victim.They were all convinced Sophie was really posing a threat to Letitia’s life.The comments underneath the post even
insulted all three generations of the Tanner family.Some netizens were even calling for a witch-hunt against Sophie to avenge
Letitia.“This Letitia is going overboard. I really want to tear her to pieces right away!” Ysabelle spoke angrily.Sophie closed
Twitter.“How about I send people to tell Letitia to take down the post and control the comments?” Felix also thought the things
people were saying about Sophie were going a little overboard.“No need.” Sophie grinned.“What’s wrong with you, Soph? Are
you all right? We believe you, you know?” Ysabelle was worried her friend was driven mad by anger.“I’m really fine. Transfix
Cosmetics is about to launch its new product. Since Letitia is so eager to help me out, I’ll just let her.”“How is she helping you,
Soph? She’s clearly trying to hurt you!”“I have a plan. Letitia wants to be famous, right? Well, I’ll help her out with that just this
once. I’ll make her famous in the whole world.”When Felix turned back, he saw Sophie’s malicious smile.In the past, he thought
Tristan was the only one he shouldn’t piss off.However, at that moment, after seeing her expression, he knew he couldn’t afford
to cross Sophie either.When Letitia saw the comments the netizens were posting, her grin turned wider and wider.Ever since the
start of the incident, she had received multiple invitations from a few directors.As expected, a person really can’t go far without
knowing how to make headlines about themselves in the entertainment industry. This is finally my time to shine. With this, no one
can stop me. I will get famous! When she saw another call on her phone, her smile became brighter.In the past, I’m the one who
has to butter Juan up. Now he’s taking the initiative to call me!“Mr. Quigley.” Letitia still wanted to act prideful.“Are you insane,
Letitia? Didn’t I tell you not to mess with Sophie? If you want to get destroyed, go ahead but don’t drag me down with you. I’m
telling you, from here on out, I have nothing to do with you!” Juan yelled.She was utterly dumbfounded.“Are you living in your
own fantasy right now? What an ignorant woman.” He then hung up the phone.Letitia was struck dumb at his words. What the
f*ck is going on?“Coward! What can the Tanner family do to me?” She gritted her teeth. Still, even without him, the resources that
I currently possess will make me famous! He may be afraid, but I’m not! As the saying goes, no pain, no gain!Tristan brought
Ysabelle and Sophie to Lombard Group’s headquarters.He asked his assistant to prepare lots of desserts and fruits for
them.Ysabelle smiled bitterly when she saw the desserts and fruits on the table. “Do we look like we’re very hungry, Soph?”She
was so full from lunch that she didn’t have the appetite to eat.“Probably!” Sophie replied.“You two stay here. I have a meeting
later. Once my meeting is over, we’ll have dinner and I’ll take you two to a concert.”“A concert!” Ysabelle wasn’t very enthusiastic
about it since she liked contemporary music better.“Be good.” Tristan was worried Sophie would be in danger if she went out
alone since the netizens were emotional. Therefore, he didn’t want her to go out alone.Sophie knew he was saying that to
her.However, she wasn’t exactly a good girl.After Tristan left for his meeting, Ysabelle lay on the couch. “Do you think my uncle
likes you, Soph? I’ve never seen him treat other people so nicely before. He never even treated me, his own niece, that
well!”She turned to Sophie. “What about you, Soph? What do you think about my uncle?” It’s not too bad if Soph ends up with
Uncle Tristan. This way, we’ll be together forever!Before she could get the answer she wanted, Sophie’s phone rang.When
Sophie saw it was from Yale, she immediately declined the call.The moment she did that, he called again and again.She got
annoyed and answered it.“What are you doing, Sophie? Do you know you made your grandpa so angry that he was sent to the
hospital?” Yale’s voice was heard on the other end.
