Mason’s mine, and no one can take him away from me!
“Am I going to steal him from you?” Sophie laughed, a tinge of nonchalance and slyness apparent in her voice. “Do I need to steal him from you? I don’t even need to do anything, but Mason will do everything he can to get my forgiveness.”
At that, Willow turned so furious she could not even come up with a response.
That was how it was in the past too. Sophie could easily gain everyone’s attention without needing to do anything.
On the other hand, no matter how hard Willow tried, she would still end up with nothing.
Life was simply unfair.
“Take a deep breath, but don’t choke and die. You won’t even be able to hold me accountable for that.”
Sophie had initially wanted to ignore her, but Willow just kept coming to her.
In that case, Sophie saw no need for holding herself back anymore.
Meanwhile, Ysabelle had a look of admiration on her face.
Soph just destroyed her with just a few sentences! As expected of my dear Sophie.
“Let’s go.”
Sophie then walked away from Willow, and Ysabelle hastily followed Sophie.
Finally, Willow could not keep control of her emotions anymore. She dashed toward Sophie and tried to push her.
“Soph, watch out!”
Sophie was walking down the stairs, and if Willow succeeded in pushing her, the consequences would be dire.
Desperate, Ysabelle sped over to shield Sophie.
“Ah!”
In the end, Ysabelle was the one who was pushed down the stairs. The moment Sophie saw Ysabelle landing at the end of the stairs, fury overcame her.
“Willow, you’re f*cking asking for it!”
However, Willow remained standing in the same spot as she looked condescendingly at the two other young women.
“Remember this. Don’t cross me. I’m not someone you could afford to mess with.”
Sophie was still seething in rage, but she ran toward Ysabelle to check on her.
It was then she realized that Ysabelle had several red marks on her.
“Ugh, it hurts so much!” Ysabelle was terrified of pain, and her eyes had turned red-rimmed by then. “Soph, my leg hurts!”
“It’s okay. I’m here.”
Sophie then lifted Ysabelle up like how a prince would carry a princess before running toward the school’s infirmary, ignoring the gazes of the other students.
Bailey spotted them on his way up the stairs, and he instantly went after them.
“What happened? What’s going on?” he anxiously asked.
Sophie ignored him.
“Sophie, let me carry her instead!” Bailey offered. She’s a girl. It must be tiring for her to carry another girl!
“It’s fine.”
Sophie brought Ysabelle straight to the infirmary without breaking a sweat.
“Leave,” Sophie coldly ordered when she realized Bailey was still around.
“I can help you out.”
“I’m about to give her a body checkup. Are you going to stay and watch?”
At that, Bailey rubbed his nose and slunk out.
Sophie then locked the door.
“Take off your clothes.”
Even though they were both girls, Ysabelle could not help but blush in embarrassment at Sophie’s flirtatious-sounding words.
“Soph, I’m fine. It’s just a few scrapes.”
Nevertheless, Sophie remained silent as she stared at her friend.
Left without a choice at the intense stare, Ysabelle took off her school uniform.
Then, Sophie briefly checked her body and found a few spots with severe grazes.
Once Sophie was done finding all the spots, she went to the cabinet to grab a few bottles of medication.
After studying them for a while, she finally applied them to Ysabelle’s wounds.
“Soph, I’m really fine. Let’s go back to the classroom.”
Frankly, Ysabelle was happy. Sophie had always been the one to take care of her, but she was finally able to do something for her friend in return.
“I’ll get Mr. Tristan to bring you to a checkup.”
Although Ysabelle seemed fine, Sophie still wished that the former would be able to undergo a thorough body checkup.
“No, it’s okay. I’m really fine. Soph, Willow’s so scary. You really have to stay away from her in the future.”
“Okay. Ysabelle, don’t intervene if a similar thing happens again. She’s no match for me.”
“Soph, I just want to help you out. Although I’m a little hurt, I’m fine as long as you’re fine.”
Ysabelle’s thoughts were simple.
“But as your friend, I don’t want to see you get hurt because of me.”
Sophie did not like how that felt.She tried hard to make herself stronger because she did not want the people around her to be hurt.
“Soph, I really am fine.”
“This time, yes, but who can be sure that nothing will happen to you the next time?”Ysabelle fell silent, but she did not regret her action at all. If this were to happen again, she was still going to do the same thing.Sophie called Tristan.There was no way she was not going to tell Tristan about what had happened to Ysabelle.
Both Tristan and Felix immediately drove to Jipsdale Premier High.Right after they got down from the car, they rushed to the infirmary.
“Belle, are you okay?” Felix instantly checked on her upon entering the infirmary.
“I’m fine! I really am. Look, don’t I look fine? You really don’t need to be this nervous.”
Tristan glanced at Ysabelle to make sure she was actually fine, but he did not say anything else.
“What about you? Are you hurt?”Sophie shook her head.
“I’m fine.”
No one could hurt her easily anymore.
“Come on. Bring Ysabelle to the hospital for a checkup.”
After all, Ysabelle had fallen down the stairs. Having her undergo a checkup would put the others at ease.Ysabelle then climbed down from the bed. She knew that the three of them would not let her go if she did not go to the hospital, so she had no choice but to agree to it.When Felix realized that Ysabelle was about to walk to the car on her own, he quickly stopped her.
“I’ll carry you.”
Ysabelle rolled her eyes at him.I’m not crippled. I don’t need anyone to carry me! Unfortunately, Felix did not give her a chance to reject him as he swiftly scooped her up in his arms.Tristan heard that Ysabelle was hurt, so he only drove a car over.After Felix carried Ysabelle into that car, Tristan had no choice but to open the door to the front passenger seat for Sophie before sitting in the driver’s seat.
“Don’t worry. Ysabelle’s fine,” Tristan consoled Sophie.
“Mr. Tristan, the one who’s hurt is your niece,” Sophie said. He should’ve taken the matter more seriously, shouldn’t he?“I’m glad that you weren’t the one hurt,” Tristan said it naturally.Sophie did not know how to respond to that.Unlike her, Felix cried out, “Mr. Tristan, that’s too much! We can’t have Belle hurt either!”
“Uncle Tristan, do you recently have an issue with me?”Bailey had been outside the entire time, so when he saw them entering the car, he ran over and asked, “Sophie, how’s Ysabelle?”
“She’s fine. We’re going to the hospital so she could get a checkup.”
