Rise Above The Betrayal (Sophia and Tristan)

That look was clearly reminding him.

The kiss she accidently attacked just now...

Sophia's heart fluttered slightly, her lips pursed gently, then she lowered her eyes and murmured softly, "Yes..."

Mr. Roscente was shocked.

She agreed?

Did Sophia agree to fulfill the marriage agreement with Tristan?noveldrama

How did she agree?

Mr. Roscente's face darkened grimly as he glared at Tristan, "Did you... did you use some illegal means to force her?"

Mr. Roscente felt a tightness in his chest now.

After seeing his precious granddaughter nod, he felt even more distressed.

It was like the feeling of a fresh cabbage he hasn't have the chance to cherish yet was being uprooted by a hog, making him almost want to burst into tears,

Thus, Mr. Roscente's gaze toward Tristan could be described as fierce, like a treasure he had cherished for long was being coveted.

Tristan Yeats maintained a polite smile, meeting Mr. Roscente's hostile gaze with composure, and said cheerfully, "Soph is my fiancée, how could I possibly force her?"

The words "fiancée" made her face even redder, and Mr. Roscente's

's face even darker,

He clenched the jade ring on his thumb tightly and, after a long time, managed to suppress his anger, giving Tristan a cold look. "You, come with me.

Tristan Yeats's eyes curved slightly with a hint of mischievousness as he gave Sophia a discreet, alluring smile before obediently following Mr. Roscente.

Just by looking at her grandfather's back, Sophia could feel a strong murderous intent.

It always felt like....

If Tristan followed up there...

The next second, he would be killed!

Sophia thought for a moment and then stepped forward to follow.

She couldn't really let her grandpa wipe out the man.

Tristan was, after all, the head of the Yeats family, and if he was wiped out at her family...

That would cause a lot of trouble!

Sophia had only just taken a step.

Butler Walter, holding the jade-inlaid cane, moved in front of her.

Chapter III

The cane was placed horizontally, just blocking Sophia's path.

Butler Walter maintained a professional smile. "Miss Roscente, your room might need to be disinfected, right? I'll arrange for a servant to come up and thoroughly disinfect your room."

Sophia did not know how to respond.

Isn't this a bit too exaggerated?

She glanced at Tristan, who followed her grandpa around the corner, his figure completely disappearing from sight.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, Tristan can handle your grandpa. Gary finally was able to call her "sister-in-law" without

restraint.

He chuckled twice, his face full of admiration for his brother, "That's any brother, visit once, and you two will be together!"

Sophia was speechless again

She gave a sidelong glance at Gary's grinning face and turned back to her own

room.

Butler Walter followed along. "Miss Roscente, the master said your room needs disinfecting. You can wait in the lounge and III inform you once it's done."

Sophia wished that she could respond, "You should disinfect your mind and Gary's mind first."

Mr. Roscente and Tristan were in the study for a good forty minutes or so.

When they came out, Mr. Roscente still wore a stern face, as if Tristan owed him billions, but clearly the stormy atmosphere between them had dissipated.

At least, Sophia did not sense that intense murderous intent anymore.

Sophia glanced at Tristan..

Tristan smirked, his aloof and ethereal demeanor exuding confidence and boldness. As their eyes met, he raised the corner of his eye and slowly blinked.

He seemed to be saying, 'Don't worry, I've taken care of your grandpa."

"Who are you looking at, huh? Right in front of me, stop exchanging flirtatious glances!" Edward Roscente noticed the exchange of looks between the two and huffed in annoyance.

Then he tilted his chin towards Sophia, "Your fiancé is leaving, go see him off." Sophia was left with no words.

She looked at her grandpa's expression.

His face was a thunderous shade, looking quite displeased, especially when he mentioned the word "fiance"; he practically gritted his teeth.

It was obvious her grandpa was trying to get rid of the guests and didn't even

want to spare Tristan another glance.

Yet, he asked her to see Tristan off?

Clearly, her grandpa didn't want her to fulfill the engagement with Tristan.

But indeed, Tristan did handle the situation.

One could only wonder what kind of "Triendly exchange took place between them

in the study.

Sophia decisively went to see Tristan off.

Under Mr. Roscente's piercing gaze, Sophia maintained a polite distance, seeing Tristan out of the hall step by step.

Then, they walked together towards the estate's

Butler Edward, with a stern face, watched Sophia's retreating figure and the

direction she disappeared in, casting a glance at Walter.

Butler Walter immediately stepped up to follow.

Of course, he followed from a distance.

Just to simply see if Mr. Yeats, due to the engagement with Sophia, would take advantage of the situation and make some physical contact with her when Mr. Roscente was out of sight.

He was merely concerned for Sophia on the master's behalf!

Just as Butler Walter stepped out of the gate.

His shoulder was hooked by Gary.

The young man's delicate and rebellious face spread into a brilliant smile as he hooked his arm around the over-fifty-year-old Butler Walter, in a friendly manner, and said with a grin. "Mr. Walter, if my little sister-in-law is seeing Tristan off, then how about you see me off, okay? Spare me from being all alone, I'm so pitiful."

Butler Walter was speechless. Come on! Don't think he doesn't know his little schemes!

Butler Walter twisted left and right, trying to break free from Gary's grip, craning his neck to look at Sophia and Tristan who

walked ahead.

But as soon as he turned his head that way.

Gary adjusted his hold on Butler Walter's shoulder just right to block his view, "Oh. Butler Walter, don't worry. This is the Roscente family, the territory of Sophia. What could my brother possibly do to her? Besides, she and my brother are already rightfully engaged to be married, so even if something happens, it's only natural, right?"

Butler Walter struggled hard to push Gary away.

But how could a man over fifty match the strength of a young man in his early twenties?

In such a fight.

Butler Walter seemed to vaguely see the two people ahead, who originally walked

side by side with a space between them, somehow, had come together.

Then, he saw Tristan reach out and hold the hand of Sophia.

Butler Walter was shocked and he struggled even more fiercely.

Saying this is the Roscente family and Mr. Yeats wouldn't dare do anything?

But their hands are already held!

You call this not daring?!

On the other side,

Sophia walked with Tristan a long distance away from the hall, turned her head

secretly, and saw far behind, Gary hooking Butler Walter, chatting about something, and they seemed to be having a pleasant conversation.

Sophia didn't think much of it, as long as her grandfather didn't follow, she wasn't

afraid.

She quietly moved closer to Tristan.
