Pursuing Her

Chapter 980 Acting Weak 

“What do you mean I bullied you? Is what I said not true? How could a brat in her salad days like you possibly defeat me?”

Lily’s capability was beyond doubt. Hence, she refused to believe that Sophie could beat her.

“I don’t have anything to say. I’ll just let the video speak for itself. In this world, there will always be evidence left behind for each action taken, and nobody can erase it.”

Sophie then turned the laptop to the few big shots that had been arguing non-stop. Though they were a little baffled, they still watched the video.

It was clearly recorded in the video that Lily was the person who took the lead in pouring the gasoline, and she was right in their midst presently.

Instantly, the big shots’ faces darkened.

“Lily Sanders, why can’t you display some sportsmanship in defeat? We’re all involved in the underworld; shouldn’t there be some kind of trust between us?”

What she did was truly an utter disgrace.

After watching the video, Lily instinctively looked at her subordinates. Didn’t they say they’ve already destroyed the evidence? Then what is this video that I’m watching?

She was looking more ticked off by the minute.

“Ms. Sanders, I…” The particular subordinate responsible immediately knelt. “I’m sorry, everyone. I’m the one to blame for doing all this. It’s got nothing to do with Ms. Sanders.”

“Ha!” Sophie sneered. So, she’s just gonna find a random scapegoat when trouble comes? How could these subordinates possibly dare do such a thing without her permission?

“Lily Sanders, what else do you have to say at this point?”

“From now onward, we will cut off all contact with the Sanders family. As for the rest of you, you’d better watch yourselves as well!”

It’s risky to work with a family with absolutely no integrity. One will never know when he will be betrayed, so it’s best to forget about it!

“Count us in. We’re sorry, Mr. Tristan. We didn’t know anything just now, which was why we said those things thoughtlessly. Henceforth, we’ll cut off ties with the Sanderses.”

Several big shots quickly chimed in one by one to express their stance.

Lily’s face contorted into an ugly expression as she did not expect things to turn out that way.

I, Lily Sanders, have never felt this humiliated, but right now, I feel like I’ve been stripped naked in front of everybody! She clenched her fists tightly.

“Everyone, I think there must be a misunderstanding. My subordinate was just plain ignorant.” She wanted to clarify further, but no one was willing to listen to her.

Of course, people in the underworld were no fools,

Ironically, the situation turned out to be in Tristan’s favor. At the very least, Lily would no longer have a place in Fandar.

“Ms. Sanders, do you think it’s a walk in the park to wrong my woman? You knew very well that she was my fiancée, yet you kept targeting her!”

Tristan’s voice was exceptionally cold, and he looked just like a devil from hell, sending chills down everyone’s spine.

“Mr. Tristan, 1-”

He took out a gun and pointed it at Lily’s forehead. The latter genuinely did not foresee the events taking such an unexpected turn.

Upon seeing this, Lily’s men swiftly whipped out their pistols and aimed at Tristan.

“What are you all doing? Isn’t this embarrassing enough?” reprimanded Lily.

I really like Tristan a lot, but I guess I don’t stand a chance anymore. This Sophie Tanner was evidently pretending to be weak in order to make me fall into her trap. Alas, I got the short end of the stick, and I can’t even say anything about it. After all, she is Tristan’s pet, so whatever I say will be deemed wrong.

“Sorry, Mr. Tristan. I…” She had no idea what else to say, for the mess was not her intention.

“Forget it,” Sophie uttered.

If we get rid of Lily now, it will inadvertently affect our future development in Fandar in a negative way. Thus, there’s no need to do anything to her at this juncture.

“Okay, I’ll let this slide since you said so. Lily, don’t you ever appear before me again. Otherwise, I won’t be polite.” With that, Tristan left with Sophie.

Lily’s fists balled up as she watched his retreating back view.

D”mn you, Sophie Tanner! Did you do this on purpose? Did you intentionally provoke me? If you did, you’ve succeeded.

“Ms. Sanders-”

Lily raised her gun and shot the person who was about to speak without hesitation.

The others quickly got down on their knees upon seeing that. “Ms. Sanders, we-”

“Remember this, if you want to stay by my side, then do things properly and leave no trace behind. If not, get the hell out right this instant!” The woman had never felt so humiliated in her life. Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

How am I supposed to mingle in Fandar’s underworld in the future? These cunning foxes will never leave me alone!

Meanwhile, Tristan’s men had all gotten into their cars. Ysabelle was elated at the thought of Lily’s earlier expression.

“Lily is seriously too shameless. How dare she accuse Sophie!” she exclaimed agitatedly.

Felix burst out laughing when he saw how worked up she was. She seems to have settled down quite well over here.

“I’m heading back tomorrow, Ysabelle. What about you? Are you coming with me or staying to wait for Sophie and the others?” He was unsure of his chances when he popped that question.

Sophie was far too great an attraction to Ysabelle, so he didn’t think the odds were high that she’d go back with him.

“Must you leave tomorrow? Why don’t we stay and have fun for a couple more days?” It’s not easy to come to a place where nobody knows me and where I have absolute freedom. This feeling is just too great!

“Mhm. Why don’t I go first, and you stay here?” Felix did not want to put her in a difficult spot.

She should just do whatever she wishes to do. There’s no need for her to be caught in a dilemma.

Suddenly, Ysabelle held his arm.

“No, I’ll leave with you. You’re still not recovered yet. Of course, I have to go back and take care of you!”

“Are you sure?” Felix was thrilled as the thought of her choosing him over Sophie had never crossed his mind.

“Yeah. I’ll go back with you tomorrow, and I won’t be so willful anymore. I’ll stay right by your side.”

The man hugged her and gave her a passionate kiss. This girl really drives me crazy! I won’t even hesitate to give her my life if that’s what she wants!

After returning to the base, Tristan picked Sophie up in his arms. She arched a brow and wrapped her arms around his neck, pointing out, “I’m not as weak as you think. I can walk on my own.”

I’m merely having my period. It’s really no big deal.

“But I just want to carry you. He had read on the Internet that some girls would faint during their menstrual period, which sounded pretty scary to him. Therefore, he wanted to take good care of his woman during her time of the month.
