Changing Only For Her - Season 5 Episode 28

The chancellors of the two most prestigious universities in the country were considered bigwigs, yet they had gone out of their way to compete for Sophie.

Josiah looked at Yale and instructed, “Yale, see Mr. Olsen and Mr. Newman off.”

The latter nodded and walked the two chancellors out the front door.

Back in the house, Josiah was thrilled.

“You did a great job, Soph! Let me know what you want as a reward, and I’ll be sure to get it for you!” he promised with a huge smile on his face.

I’ve always known that Sophie is very talented, but I never thought she’d be this amazing!

“I don’t need anything right now, Grandpa. All I want is for you to take good care of your health.” That was probably the best gift Sophie could ever ask for.

“No, Sophie. You’re the pride of the Tanner family, so I must treat you to something!” Josiah insisted.

This calls for a celebration! I can’t just sit by and do nothing!

Willow did not take too kindly to how everyone seemed to be making a fuss over Sophie.

Why is Sophie getting all the good stuff in life? I’m engaged to Clayton now, yet it still couldn’t change a thing!

With that in mind, she went upstairs quietly.

At that moment, she could not bear to stick around and witness Sophie’s glory.

Unbeknownst to everyone, Willow wished Sophie would flunk the exam.

However, what happened was the exact opposite.

Charmaine felt a little worried when she saw Willow’s response, so she followed her up the stairs.

“Willa, why did you walk away when we’re about to go celebrate? Your grandpa won’t be happy if you leave just like this.”

Willow turned around and said, “I’m the one who isn’t happy right now, Mom. I couldn’t care less what everyone else feels!” Her voice was not soft.

“You can’t behave like this, Willow. Regardless of what you feel, Sophie is still your younger sister. Her excellent performance in the university entrance exam will bring great pride to the Tanner family. Who knows, she might even be able to help you out someday!” In Charmaine’s opinion, there was no need to make things ugly.

“Her success has nothing to do with mine. She will never help me!” Sophie has never shown me respect, and that didn’t change when we were at Nocturnal the other day.

Charmaine shook her head and said in resignation, “Forget it. Nothing I say is going to change your mind. Just remember not to make an enemy of Sophie.”

She, too, had recently realized that nothing good would come out of messing with Sophie.

Unable to stand talking about Sophie any longer, Willow went upstairs without saying another word.

Is Sophie really that amazing? I don’t think so! She just got a little lucky, that’s all! There’s nothing impressive about that.

As for Charmaine, she went back downstairs to carry on celebrating Sophie’s success with the rest of the family.

“Grandpa, if there’s nothing else to do here, I’ll get going now as I need to head over to school later in the afternoon,” Sophie voiced.

Josiah was elated. “All right, go do what you have to do. You’ll definitely be a successful person in the future!”

Tristan was still following her around after they left the Tanner residence.

“Hey, didn’t I tell you to head to Lombard Group?” Sophie asked, wondering why he was still staying by her side.

“It’s fine. I’ll drop you off at school,” Tristan replied.

“In that case, let’s pick Ysabelle up at TS Entertainment before heading over.”

“No need for that. Felix is already on the way to pick her up.” The man in question had been putting in a lot of effort to pursue Ysabelle lately, but nothing seemed to be working.

“All right. We’ll go straight to school, then,” Sophie said at the end.

When Tristan dropped her off at the front gate of Jipsdale Premier High, sure enough, he saw Felix’s car parked by the side. Apparently, Felix had arrived with Ysabelle quite some time ago, and they had been waiting for Sophie outside.

It was only when Ysabelle spotted Tristan’s car that she got out of Felix’s vehicle to meet with Sophie.

“Come on, Sophie! It’s about time.”

“Okay!” Sophie replied as she got out of the car.

“You boys can head on back. Our class is having an event tonight, so you don’t need to pick us up from school.” Their classmates decided to have a gathering before everyone went their separate ways in life.

After all, they had been studying together for a long time.

“Is it a gathering?” Felix asked with a frown.

I don’t really like gatherings such as this… Couples tend to get broken up during the event.

“Yeah, Bobby said we should have a gathering before we all part ways,” Ysabelle replied, finding it perfectly normal.

“Oh, I see. Can I come along?” Felix asked because he remembered that some of the boys in their class had a crush on her.

A gathering that acted as a farewell party was a perfect opportunity for them to confess their feelings to her.

He would not let them have a chance to do so.

Ysabelle stared at him in disbelief. “Felix, this is a gathering for our classmates. You don’t know any of them, so why would you want to join?”

“I know you and Sophie. Isn’t that good enough?” Felix did not think it was necessary for him to know everyone else.

“I don’t think you should come along. We’re all students here. It’ll be awkward for us to have a working adult around.”

Ysabelle’s remark rendered him speechless.

“What are you planning on doing at the gathering, Ysabelle? Why won’t you let me come with you?”

“What do you mean by that?” she asked in puzzlement. What else could I possibly do?

“Be honest with me. Is there someone you like? Are you planning on confessing your feelings to him at the gathering?”

Ysabelle glared at him.

“What does that have to do with you? Who I like and when I decide to confess my feelings are none of your business. Stay out of it.”

Unable to stand how noisy they were being, Tristan chided, “That’s enough, you two!”

The two of them fell silent instantly.

“They’re both adults now. They can make their own decisions in life,” Tristan added. It was pointless for Felix to try to control Ysabelle.

Since neither of them was on his side, Felix did not feel like saying another word.

“Don’t worry; I won’t let anyone take advantage of her!” Sophie reassured him when she saw how worried he looked.

Felix nodded and said in resignation, “All right. Thanks, Sophie.”

Sophie simply flashed him a meaningful smile in response.

“Just ignore him, Sophie! Come on, let’s go!”

Ysabelle then dragged Sophie into the school while Felix stood there gloomily.

Still feeling worried, he asked, “Mr. Tristan, aren’t you worried about this at all? Sophie is really pretty, after all!” He figured things would be different if Tristan attended the gathering with him.

“Why would I be worried? I know she won’t settle for average guys,” Tristan replied calmly.

Felix let out a helpless sigh as he realized he was the only one feeling worried.

Tristan comforted him by saying, “Come on, quit sulking. Ysabelle will eventually be yours if you two are fated to be together.”

“I didn’t know you believed in fate, Mr. Tristan.”

“Why wouldn’t I?” Tristan questioned in return.

He believed it was fate that allowed him to meet Sophie in life.

“I thought you always believed in hard work instead.”

“Of course, I also believe that hard work is also required.” Sophie and I wouldn’t have gotten this far if it weren’t for me putting in all that effort.

“Exactly. That’s why I have to continue working hard.”

“That doesn’t make it okay for you to attend a gathering for students!” Tristan commented bluntly.

“I can’t help it! I’m worried about her!” Felix protested.

He, too, did not want to attend a gathering in which he would not fit in, but he did not know what else he could do.
