Pursuing Her Chapter 266

Chapter 266 Sophie Calls The Shots Just like that, the four of them headed over to the nearest

movie theater. Ysabelle dragged Felix over to the ticket counter the moment they got there. “Are

you seriously going to make Mr. Tristan watch a cartoon?” Felix asked. As far as he knew, Tristan and

cartoons were two things that didn’t go together. “Felix, for the last time, this isn't a cartoon! It's an

animated film!” Ysabelle snapped at him. “How is that any different? They're both meant for kids,

aren't they?” “You—" Realizing that Ysabelle was going to get mad at him, Felix quickly corrected

himself, “Okay, you're right. It's an animated film. Even so, it still doesn’t seem right for Mr. Tristan to

watch something like this!” Felix still felt it was too childish for someone of Tristan’s status. “That's

no problem at all! Uncle Tristan wouldn't even be paying attention to the movie with Sophie by his

side!” Ysabelle figured Tristan would probably keep his eyes on Sophie throughout the entire movie.

Felix shrugged helplessly. “Fair enough.” She's right. Sophie is the one calling the shots now. Tristan

is so in love with her that he'll do anything to make her happy. Oh, well... I suppose this is the power

of love, huh? Tristan and Sophie went to buy some snacks while waiting for Felix and Ysabelle to get

the tickets. After all, a movie date wouldn't be complete without popcorn. “What would you like to

drink?” Tristan asked, as he had no idea what her preferences were. Sophie did not feel like drinking

anything, as they had just taken their dinner a while ago. However, she decided to order something

anyway since everyone else was doing it. “I'll have a yam milkshake!” “Four yam milkshakes, please.”

The two of them then made their way over to Felix and Ysabelle with two large buckets of popcorn

and four cups of milkshakes in their hands. Ysabelle quickly stepped forward and took one of the

buckets of popcorn. “Come on, Sophie! The movie is about to start!” “Okay!” Tristan handed out the

milkshakes as the four of them took their seats. Felix nearly spat out his drink after taking a sip of it.

"What the heck? Who bought this milkshake?” Does no one know that I hate yam milkshake the

most? This has gone way too far! Sophie flashed him a confused look as she said, “I did.

Is something the matter?” Both Tristan and Ysabelle shifted their gaze toward him after hearing that.

“What, is there a problem with it?” Tristan asked in annoyance. Felix could only rub his nose

awkwardly in silence. No, of course not! I wouldn't dare have a problem with Sophie’s decisions!

Even if I did, there'd be no point in voicing it out because I'm just a nobody! Honestly, my life is a

f*cking joke! The movie theater was playing an advertisement for a Transfix Cosmetics product that

Cecelia endorsed. “Man, Cecelia sure is gorgeous!” Ysabelle exclaimed. “I know, right? It's almost as

if she was born to be a movie star!” Sophie was in complete agreement with her statement. Still

unable to get over his feelings of indignation, Felix mumbled, “Mr. Tristan, you know I don't like yam

milkshake.” “How the heck would I know that?” Neither of them liked drinking milkshakes, so he

really had no idea.

“It's uncool to forget your friend just because you've gotten yourself a girlfriend, Mr. Tristan!” “What

do you want me to do, then? Go buy you another milkshake?” “Ugh... Never mind...” Screw it... My

life is just a joke anyway... “Just so you know, Felix, Ysabelle likes yam milkshake.” Since Sophie

wasn't a huge fan of milkshakes, she decided to buy something that Ysabelle liked instead. At that

moment, Felix finally realized his lack of understanding toward Ysabelle was probably why she never

returned his feelings. Because of the animated film's popularity, it was practically a full house in the

movie theater. The movie became popular mainly because it reminded many of their childhood

days. The audience, who were giggling and laughing during the movie's opening sequence, soon

fell silent as they found themselves in deep thought. Even though Sophie rarely watched animated

films, she found herself taking the movie rather seriously as well because she could relate to its plot

somehow. When Tristan held her hand and placed it on his lap, she was snapped out of her train of

thought. She turned toward him and saw a worried look in his eyes. “Looks like we all share a similar

childhood, huh?” Sophie said with a faint smile. Her childhood was indeed no different from that of

others before she was sent to Horington. “Do you want to go for a walk? There's no point in

watching this if you don't like it. There are plenty of other things we can do here.”

“No, I kind of like this movie. It truly is the best Chanaean animated film ever!” Chanaea’s animated

films had always been a step behind Jetroina’s, so the success of this movie was considered truly

remarkable progress for the local animation industry. Tristan, on the other hand, couldn't relate to

the movie in the slightest. If it weren't for Sophie's desire to watch the movie, he wouldn't have even

been there in the first place. Feeling bored, Tristan grabbed a piece of popcorn and held it up to her

mouth. Although Sophie found it a little embarrassing, she decided to eat it when she saw the

expectant look in his eyes. Due to her nervousness, she accidentally bit Tristan’s finger while eating

the popcorn. Tristan shuddered when he felt her teeth come into contact with his finger. He was

genuinely trying to feed her some popcorn, but it turned into an intimate moment between them

instead. “I-1 didn't do it on purpose!” Sophie stammered shyly. “I didn't say anything!” Tristan replied

with a chuckle as he found her behavior rather adorable. He could still feel a tingling sensation on

his finger. Felix found himself feeling depressed when he saw how lovey-dovey the two of them

were.

Jeez... Why do I have to suffer like this while others are able to have such sweet relationships? His

mood only worsened when he turned to look at Ysabelle and saw her crying because of the movie.

What the f*ck? Why is she taking this animated film so seriously? My life is a lot more tragic than

that protagonist's! It wasn't until the protagonist had overcome all the challenges and realized his

dreams that Ysabelle was able to smile again. The rest of the audience got up and left the movie

theater while the ending credits were still being played. The four of them remained in their seats

and waited until everyone was gone before leaving. As it was a little dark inside, Tristan held

Sophie's hand as he led her down the steps. Felix seized the opportunity and grabbed Ysabelle's

hand as well. “Hey! What are you doing?” Ysabelle asked in confusion. “It's too dark in here, okay? I

don't want to trip over something and fall on my face!” Felix snapped back at her impatiently. My

goodness!

Just how dense can this girl get? He grabbed my hand because he’s afraid of tripping and falling?

What is he trying to do? Have me fall down with him? Ysabelle rolled her eyes at the thought of

that. Sophie looked back when she heard the commotion behind her, but Tristan continued

dragging her toward the door.

“Just ignore them, Sophie. We need to give them some space.” “Okay!” Sophie nodded. He's right.

It'll take quite a long while for Ysabelle to realize Felix's feelings for her. We can only try to speed up

the process by giving them some privacy. It was already eleven thirty by the time they came out of

the movie theater. “Uncle Tristan, can I go to Wisteria Apartments with Sophie? We have a lot to

catch up on!”
