Chapter 435

“Mr. Zales?” The director froze momentarily, and he shook his head. “It’s no use even if you’re his

fiancée. Mr. Zales is nothing compared to Mr. Tristan,” he said straightforwardly.

Willow fell into despair.

The nurse then brought Willow to a room with three patients in it. When the three middle-aged women

noticed her, they flashed her silly smiles, which gave her goosebumps.

After leaving Willow in the room, the nurse walked out and shut the door.

“Let me out!” The former banged on the door in a frenzied manner.

However, no one responded to her cries.

“Wow. This young lady is so pretty. Come play with me!”

Willow kept backing away. “What are you doing? Stop where you are. I’m warning you. Don’t come

near!”

“The flower on her head is so pretty!”

Seeing the ribbon on Willow’s head, one of the middle-aged women hurried forward, pulled her close,

and snatched it off her head.

“Her dress is pretty, too. I want it!” Another woman tugged at Willow’s dress so hard that she almost

tore it off.

“Ah! What are you people doing? Let me go! Let me go! Do you hear me?” The room echoed with

Willow’s cries of despair.

Unfortunately, those women with mental disorders were, naturally, oblivious to her cries.

Meanwhile, Tristan had arrived at TS Entertainment.

However, the security guards did not know who he was, so they stopped him from entering.

“I’m sorry. You can’t enter without an employee ID,” they informed him. They did not dare to offend

Tristan when they saw how he was dressed in premium-looking clothes, but it was their responsibility to

keep strangers out. Thus, they had to adhere to the protocol strictly.

“I’m here to see your CEO,” said Tristan.

He never expected there would be a place he would be denied entry.

“There are many people who come looking for our CEO. Why don’t you give Ms. Tanner a call and get

her to come down to bring you in?”

Not wanting to make things difficult for the guards, Tristan immediately gave Sophie a call. However,

she seemed to be occupied and did not answer her phone.

By the time Sophie’s meeting had ended, half an hour had passed. After checking her phone for

notifications, she gave Tristan a call. “What’s up?”

“I’m outside your company, but I can’t get in.”

“What?” Sophie asked in surprise. She had never heard of Tristan being denied entry to a place.

“Your company’s security guards told me I should ask you to come down and bring me in.”

“All right. I’ll be right over.” Sophie walked out of the conference room and headed downstairs.

Sure enough, she saw Tristan at the door the moment she arrived.

“Why did you come here all of a sudden?” she questioned. He should’ve informed me earlier. Oh my.

He must’ve wasted a lot of time waiting here.

“I missed you, so I came here to see you.”

As Sophie brought him in, she said to the security guards, “This is my boyfriend. You can let him in if he

comes looking for me the next time.”

“Okay, Ms. Tanner,” responded the security guards respectfully.

“Good job, by the way. All of you will be given a raise of one thousand.”

Even though they were mere security guards of the company, they had to be the best.

If they weren’t the best, they had to at least carry out their duty well, which was something they did

perfectly that day.

All the security guards were delighted to hear about the raise.

“Thank you, Ms. Tanner. We were just doing our job.”

“Good. Continue to do your best,” Sophie encouraged.

They played very important roles as the security guards of TS Entertainment.

“All right, Ms. Tanner. Thank you once again.” The security guards bowed in unison.

“It’s what you deserve.” With that, she headed upstairs with Tristan.

The man joked, “Wow. You’re such a generous person, Ms. Tanner. You seem to be in a good mood

today.”

“Oh, it’s nothing. I’m just rewarding them for their hard work. Besides, I’m strict with my employees.

Everything they receive is just what they deserve,” Sophie explained.

Although she had strict requirements, her employees were never given a low wage.

Soon, the couple arrived at Sophie’s office.

Of course, her office was not as grand as Tristan’s, but the interior design was simple and refreshing.

She liked the style quite a lot.

After settling down, she poured Tristan a glass of water.

“Carry on with your work. I’m just here to keep you company,” Tristan said. He did not want her work to

be affected just because of his presence.

Right then, Xandra walked in and was slightly taken aback to see Tristan sitting on the couch.

Why is Mr. Tristan here?

“Um… Did I interrupt anything? I can leave first if I’m being a disturbance.”

Hearing that, Sophie said, “No, not at all. By the way, I need you to keep an eye on the entire flow of

the concert.”

“Huh? It’s just a concert. Why should I do that? What’s wrong? Is there a problem?” Xandra asked.

I’m just a PR manager. Why should I keep an eye on the concert?

“There’s a little problem.”

“What is it?” That was the first time Xandra saw Sophie looking this solemn. Hence, she was curious to

find out what had happened.

“It’s Mark. He wants to leave The Wheelers.”

“What?” Xandra exclaimed. As expected, it’s something big. “When did he say that? Why does he want

to leave? He’s the soul of The Wheelers. It’s meaningless for the band to carry on if he leaves. I’m not

saying the other members aren’t good. It’s just that it’s hard for the band to continue without their core

member. Especially when he’s the lead singer.”

“I know.”

“Have you talked to Mark about this?” asked Xandra. They’re good friends, right? I’m sure they can talk

this out.

“I have, but he refuses to tell me anything,” answered Sophie. There was nothing she could do about

the matter.

After a moment of silence, Xandra said, “Our company has just launched, and we’re already facing

such a problem. This isn’t going to be easy to deal with. The Wheelers is totally off the charts now. If

they disband now, their fans will blame it on us.”

“That’s why I need you to keep an eye on the concert. It’ll be fine with you there, right?” Sophie said

with a smile.

She needed all hands on deck as a precaution, no matter what.

If Mark insisted on leaving when the time came, they would have no choice but to bear with the

aftermath.

“Tsk. I shouldn’t have said yes to you in the beginning. I could’ve been enjoying my holiday now,”

complained Xandra. She had been dealing with all kinds of problems ever since she got back.

“There, there. I’ll treat you to a meal once this is over.”

“Since when did you become such a cheapskate? How could you pay me back with just a meal?”

“I can make it two meals—or three—if that’s not enough.”

“All right. I’ll keep an eye on the concert. Don’t worry. I’ll handle it.” The concert would be fine as long

as Xandra was there.

Right then, someone knocked on the door.

“Come in!”

Upon hearing that, Cecelia entered the room.

The problem with her contract was already settled, which meant she was currently an artist at TS

Entertainment.

“You’re amazing, Sophie. I can’t believe you successfully dealt with my ex-boss when he’s such a

tough nut. You’re truly a good friend of mine,” Cecelia said with admiration.
