Chapter 775 Perfect Atmosphere To Drink

Why is this young lady so cute?

With that thought in mind, Sean walked over to Cecelia and held out a hand to her.

Sean had always exuded a distant aura, and there had never been a smile on his face. However, he

seemed to have been entertained by Cecelia's tumble. At this moment, a trace of warmth appeared

on his cold face, making him appear as if he suddenly came to life.

“You should get up. Isn't the ground cold?" Sean asked when he noticed she wasn't moving at all.

Cecelia grabbed his hand, and he pulled her up. The very next moment, she fell into his arms due to

his overwhelming strength.

Cecelia was speechless. She had fantasized about this man's body before, so her head went

completely blank when she was so close to him.

Yet, Sean gently pushed her away in the next second. “Let's go! It's too cold outside. You'll catch a

cold if we continue to stay here.”

With that, Sean walked forward by himself.

"He sure doesn't understand women,” Cecelia murmured. What is wrong with this man? Why can't I

enchant him with my charm? As expected, he's hopelessly clueless!

When Cecelia arrived, Sophie and the others were already soaking in the hot spring. Seeing how

long it took for Cecelia to get there, Ysabelle couldn't help but complain, “Cecelia, where have you

been?” What took her so long?

“It's nothing. I'm a person who doesn't have a boyfriend who can protect me. Also, I tripped and fell

on my way here!” Cecelia exclaimed.

"Are you okay?" Ysabelle didn't mean to trigger Cecelia. She was only expressing her concern

sincerely.

“All right, now. Come on in! You won't feel cold anymore after being in the hot spring for a while.”

Since the temperature of the hot spring water was high, one wouldn't feel cold after a short while.

Cecelia removed her bath towel and got into the hot spring as well.

"Where is Winter? Why isn't she here with you guys? Could it be that she went to seduce Mr.

Tristan?” Cecelia couldn't help but ask when she didn't see Winter around.

However, Winter appeared behind Cecelia just when the latter finished her sentence and said,

“Don't worry, Ms. Lance! The ladies from the Quigley family would never do something like

seducing someone.”

Cecelia was at a loss for words. It was indeed quite awkward for her to be caught badmouthing

someone. Yet, she would be the last one to feel embarrassed as long as she didn't express it.

Naturally, Sophie and Cecelia didn't respond to Winter.

Sophie, Cecelia, and Ysabelle were sitting in a corner of the hot spring, chatting among themselves.

They were even discussing Sophie and Tristan's wedding details as if Winter didn't exist.

Even though Winter had just gotten into the hot spring, she felt a stuffiness in her heart. It was a

feeling that she couldn't control at all.

"Our wedding is still a year away! We don't have to rush the preparations.” It's just a wedding

ceremony, so we don't need to spend so much time preparing.

“All right, then.” Cecelia nodded. “Are you skipping a grade when the new semester starts?” To

Cecelia, nothing that Sophie did now would surprise her anymore.

“Yup!” Sophie responded.

Ysabelle was speechless and devastated when she heard that. This is university we're talking about!

How is Sophie skipping grades even in university? Can't she consider the feelings of ordinary people

like us?

"Ysabelle, what's the matter?” Upon seeing Ysabelle's reaction, Cecelia couldn't help but laugh. See?

This is the reaction of an ordinary human.

“I'm fine. I'm perfectly fine! Anyway, I won't skip any grades. Sophie can skip all the grades she

wants to by herself!” Ysabelle replied. Honestly, she reckoned that studying at a university wouldn't

be too useful for someone like Sophie.

"Okay." Cecelia covered her mouth to conceal her laugh. Ysabelle looks really cute like this. I can't

believe she can still maintain her naivety after working in the entertainment industry. She's

genuinely so cute.

Winter also wanted to join their conversation. She wished to join their circle in the future, which was

the reason she came here without hesitation in the first place. But why is everyone just focusing on

Sophie?

When Sarah arrived at the hot spring, she came over to look for the ladies. However, upon seeing

Winter being alone, Sarah felt sorry for the latter and went to sit next to her in the hot spring.

“Sarah, Juan is currently pursuing you, right?” That means nothing in this world stays the same

forever, right? If I can afford to wait, maybe I can wait until I get what I want.

Sarah shook her head. "Winter, you can clearly start over again. Why are you still hung up on a

relationship that will never be yours? Tristan truly loves Sophie to the point that he will never give

up on her, even if she were to want to break up. Do you understand?” Thus, not all who wait will get

what they want in the end.

Winter kept quiet.

“To be honest, I know how difficult it is to forget someone. But all you can do is try! Otherwise, you

will never get over it,” Sarah added. Why would Winter choose to torture herself like this? Sophie

doesn't even care about her existence!

“II...” Winter stammered. She could keep putting up a facade in front of everyone else. However, it

was impossible for her to do so in front of Sarah. “But I feel heartbroken whenever I see them

together!” What else can I do? I want to forget him as well, yet I just can't do it.

“That's your problem. Tristan has never given you any hope, right?” So, everything is up to you,

Winter. Nobody else can help you decide what you should do.

“Yeah. I don't feel too well, Sarah. I'm going back now.” Winter felt like no one could understand

how she felt at all. Talking about it would only make others view her as a laughingstock.

As soon as Winter left, Ysabelle spoke. “Aunt Sarah, why are you saying so much to her? She will

never understand.” Someone like Winter only knows how to persist pointlessly. She doesn't

understand that not all relationships will blossom just because she waits.

“That's enough. She's quite pitiful as well. You should stop targeting her all the time,” Sarah replied.

Winter became the way she was now merely because she liked someone.

"I..." Ysabelle stuttered. Well, fine! I really dislike Winter. But no matter what, she's still Charles’ sister.

I shouldn't cross the line.

“Sarah, how's it going between you and Juan?” Sophie piped up to change the topic.

Sarah felt her head hurt when Juan was mentioned. “How else can it be? There's nothing special!”

Just when Sarah wanted to give up, Juan suddenly wanted her again. The world worked in peculiar

ways. Nonetheless, she genuinely wanted nothing to do with Juan anymore. To her, Juan was

perhaps just a person she was fixated on

“All right, that's enough. Let's stop talking about those lowly men. Didn't we come here today to

relax?” Sarah went on. She had really gotten over it now. If she couldn't get what she wanted after

waiting for so long, then she would just stop waiting.

Nothing was more important than living a good life for oneself, and not everyone was worth

spending one's entire lifetime waiting for.

Besides, Sarah couldn't figure out what Juan was trying to do right now. Moreover, Yvette wasn't

someone who would easily give up on Juan too.

“That's right! Today, we shall sit back and relax. As for those people who don't matter, we shall stop

caring about them.” Cecelia raised her wine glass. “Cheers!”

Instantaneously, Ysabelle poured Sophie a glass of red wine. “Sophie, this red wine is pretty good.

You should have some.”

Such atmosphere was perfect for drinking wine.
