Chapter 97 Make The First Move
“You’ll never have the chance again,” Willow said with utter satisfaction because that was the first time
she thought she was one up on Sophie ever since Sophie came back.
“Well, if you’re so eager and happy to rely on men, be my guest. Perhaps you feel proud about that, but
I don’t want any of it.”
“You don’t? Oh, please. You’re just being jealous!” Willow answered. There’s no way the Laird family would accept a woman with such a terrible reputation like Sophie.
Sophie merely sneered in response and ignored her. Talking to Willow is such a waste of time. It seems like she’s always living in her own world.
When they arrived at the school, Sophie opened the car door and got out of the car without sparing
Willow a single glance.
Upon seeing that, Willow was annoyed. Although I have one up on her, why do I not feel a sense of superiority?
Ever since Sophie’s return, things were gradually changing, and Willow was getting unsettled.
Unfortunately, there was nothing she could do about it.
Luckily, Mason is coming back soon. Once I’m engaged to him, everyone in Jipsdale is going to be so jealous of me. As long as I can marry into the Laird family, Sophie will be incomparable to me.
“Ms. Willow, go on! Class is starting soon,” the driver urged.
Willow only went to class after hearing that.
Sophie was barely paying attention to the class that afternoon because she already knew everything
that was being taught. This is such a waste of time. However, since Grandpa wants me in school, I shall do as he wishes.
Sophie didn’t want Josiah to get upset.
Finally, her teacher left after the school bell rang.
The moment her teacher left, Ysabelle went to look for Sophie, and she said, “Let’s go for dinner! We
still have an exam later in the evening!”
Ever since becoming senior-year students, their schedules were packed with exams.
Sophie saw Victor when they stepped out of school.
“I’m here, Sophie!” Victor waved his hand in the air when he saw her.
Sophie pretended like she didn’t see him and kept walking.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtVictor then walked up to her and stopped her.
“What are you doing?” Sophie was irritated.
How is this person so annoying? Not only is he dressed in fancy clothes, but he just has to come and annoy me.
“Why do you hate me so much, Sophie? Don’t you think I look good today?” Victor was dressed in a
flashy red suit.
Sophie kept mum.
Since Sophie was ignoring him, Victor turned toward Ysabelle and asked, “Hey, young lady. What do
you think?”
Ysabelle shook her head. “I don’t think it’s nice in any way. Buzz off.”
“This young lady is feisty!” Victor uttered.
“What are you doing here, Victor?” Sophie asked.
The students nearby noticed them, and they started talking among themselves while staring at the
three of them.
“Nothing much, actually. Under your leadership, Transfix Cosmetics has been a success, so I’ve come
to congratulate you.” Victor was very interested in Sophie.
“Thank you.” With that, Sophie held Ysabelle’s hand and continued walking.
Refusing to give up, Victor reached out his hand to grab Sophie’s shoulder.
Sophie frowned. He’s pushing it!
Sophie turned around, grabbed Victor’s hand, and threw him over her shoulder. Victor was heard letting
out a groan when he fell to the ground with a loud thud.
“Argh!”
Victor didn’t know Sophie was capable of doing that. Thus, her action caught him off guard.
The onlookers were stunned when they saw that. Well, Sophie is indeed the new “boss” in Jipsdale Premier High. She’s not to be messed with. She had just thrown the tall and well-built man over her shoulder!
“Mr. Victor, are you all right?” Victor’s assistant rushed over instantly.
Victor was still on the ground, and he was blushing. This is so embarrassing! I’ve been beaten by a young lady.
“Let’s go!” Sophie uttered coldly and brought Ysabelle away.
“I’m going to teach her a lesson, Mr. Victor,” the assistant said. How dare she bully Mr. Victor? She must have a death wish!
Right then, Victor grabbed him and stopped him. “What do you think you’re doing?”
“I’m going to avenge you!”
“You are sick of living, aren’t you?” Victor kicked his assistant and asked, “Don’t you find her
interesting?”
The assistant’s lips twitched when he heard that. “Do you enjoy being tortured, Mr. Victor?”
Do all the rich people nowadays have weird kinks? Do they like being tortured? Or is it because they’re asking for it?
“You’re so cool, Soph!” Ysabelle exclaimed in admiration.
“Don’t be so impressed. You can do it as well. I’ll teach you when I’m free.” In fact, it was essential for
girls to learn some self-defense techniques.
“Sure!”
Prior to that, Felix had offered to teach Ysabelle, but she wasn’t interested. However, she was willing to
learn from Sophie.
That night, Willow didn’t attend her self-study session. Instead, she went to the Laird residence and
accompanied Constance to the airport to fetch Mason.
Before Willow went to the Laird residence, she had put on some makeup and donned an elegant skirt.
Constance was very satisfied with how Willow looked when she saw her. “Let’s go! It’s about time.
Mason is going to stay this time around, and he’s not going back, Willa. You must take full advantage of
the opportunity, okay?”
“Got it, Mrs. Laird.”
“Also, don’t be shy. That’s just how Mason is. If he doesn’t take the initiative, you just have to make the
first move.” Compared to Sophie, Constance liked Willow a lot more.
The Laird family’s driver then sent both of them to the airport.
Upon arriving, Willow was nervous. After all, she hadn’t seen Mason for three years.
I wonder how he is now. Does he still remember me? Does he have a girlfriend abroad?
Constance noticed her nervousness, so she patted her hand and said, “Everything’s going to be all
right. You’ve saved Mason’s life, remember? Didn’t he treat you nicely back then?”
Willow nodded.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIndeed, everyone in the Laird family thought Willow was the one who had saved Mason, and that was
why they treated her very nicely.
No one knew the truth, and no one bothered to find out.
Right then, they saw Mason walking toward them from afar. After three years, his innocence had
vanished, and he looked mature.
He was dressed in a white shirt with a blue sweater on the outside, and he looked very handsome.
Willow couldn’t help but blush when she saw him once again.
Willow suppressed the shyness and greeted, “You’re back, Mason!”
“Yes,” Mason replied coldly.
“What’s with you? Do you not have anything else to say? Why are you being so cold?” Constance liked
Willow a lot, and she was hoping that Willow would be her daughter-in-law.
“It’s okay, Mrs. Laird. I bet Mason is just tired. After all, he has just been on a long flight,” Willow
uttered.
“All right. Let’s continue at home. We should find someday to have your parents over for a meal.”
Constance had already made up her mind.
“Sure, Mrs. Laird.” Willow was absolutely obedient to Constance.
When they were on the way back, Mason suddenly asked, “Oh, right! Is Sophie back from Horington
yet?”
As soon as his words fell, the atmosphere in the car turned cold.
“Why did you bring her up?” Constance asked unhappily. “Someone like Sophie should never come
back.”
Mason couldn’t help but frown. “Mom, you have too much prejudice against Sophie.”
“What do you mean? Has she done anything that’s worthy of my fondness?” Constance argued.
While listening to the conversation, Willow clenched her fists so hard that her nails dug into the flesh of
her palms.
