CHAPTER 879 PITIFUL
“Don't get any impractical ideas in your head if you still want a place in Lombard Group.”
Felix chose to advise Ophelia because of her capability at work.
He wouldn't have given her any advice otherwise. He wasn't some saint, nor was he a busybody.
Ophelia paled, not expecting Felix's warning.
“Mr. Northley, I truly have no other intentions. I just want to stay by Mr. Tristan's side.”
Despite knowing Tristan would never like her and she would never be his woman, she just wanted to
be near him.
“I'm doing this for your own good. Pack your things. I've already had someone book your plane ticket.”
Ophelia took a step back from the shock.
“If you insist on sending me to Koandria, I'd rather resign.”
They won't have any right to decide where I go if I resign. I don't ever want to leave the country again
after returning. I want to live on the same soil as him.
Felix frowned at her remarks.
“Do you know what you're saying, Ophelia?”
She'd better think things through before making any decision. Crying will be pointless if she regrets it
later. Many people want to be part of Lombard Group's workforce, but not everyone gets that chance.
“I've already thought things through. I'd rather leave if I can't stay by Mr. Tristan's side.”
If that's the only way for me to continue to stay by his side, I'm more than willing to resign.
“All right. I understand. Let me think about it.”
Ophelia nodded and left.
Felix went to Tristan's office to talk about Ophelia's decision.
He relayed the gist of the situation to Tristan.
“Ophelia expressed very clearly that she only wants to work at the headquarters. She's a rare talent
and might jump ship if we don't accept her terms.”
I think that's what Ophelia meant.
“She wants to stay at the headquarters?”
“Yeah, that woman likes you very much. Can't you tell?” Why else would she try her best to stay by his
side if she doesn't like him?
“Since she wants to leave, let her leave.” Ophelia is indeed a rare talent, but I dislike people
threatening me. If she thinks I'll give in by threatening to resign, she's completely wrong.
“Okay. Got it.” Felix already knew that would be the outcome.
That was why he was frank with Ophelia earlier.
There are plenty of talented employees, but Mr. Tristan only has one woman in his heart.
Ophelia couldn't suppress her smile when she received Felix's call.
However, it didn't take long for tears to fall from her eyes.
It feels pointless no matter how hard I work. Mr. Tristan has never looked at me. Not even once! Hence,
his lack of hesitation in sending me away at such a time. Honestly, I'm envious of Sophie. She doesn't
need to do anything to get all of Mr. Tristan's love.
Plagued by heartbreak and jealous thoughts, she went to the University of Medicine after finding out
Sophie was enrolled there.
Upon arriving there, she began to roam the campus.
She couldn't accept leaving Lombard Group just like that and was frustrated that she wouldn't get to
see Tristan anymore in the future. Nevertheless, she didn't know what else she could do to turn the
situation around. She knew for a fact that Tristan had never taken her seriously.
In the end, she instinctively came to meet Sophie.
“Ms. Tanner, may I have a word with you?”
Sophie was baffled by Ophelia's sudden appearance at her campus. She remembered that the latter
was the general manager of Lombard Group's branch office.
They did meet a few times before but never had any interaction. Thus, Sophie was confused as to why
she came looking for her.
“Ms. Summers, is there a reason why you're looking for me?”
“I want to stay at the Lombard Group headquarters.”
Sophie's brows furrowed at her request. That isn't a decision I can make. Even though I'm Tristan's
girlfriend, I never interfere with Lombard Group's affairs.
“It seems you got the wrong person, Ms. Summers. You should look for Mr. Tristan if you want to stay
at the Lombard Group headquarters, not me.”
“I know Mr. Tristan will listen to you, Ms. Tanner, since he loves you so much. I'm sure he'll agree to let
me stay if you talk to him. You're the reason he made me leave.”
Sophie arched her brow at Ophelia's words.
What is she saying?
“Me?”
Realization finally dawned upon Ophelia at what she had done. What have I done? How can Sophie
possibly help me? Mr. Tristan is her boyfriend, and I have feelings for her boyfriend. There's no woman
dumb enough to help her love rival.
“Nevermind. I'm sorry to bother you. Pretend I never came here.” Ophelia turned on her heel and left.
Sandra was with Sophie throughout the exchange and didn't understand the purpose of the whole
thing.
“Who was that? Why did she leave after coming all the way here to spew a bunch of nonsense?”
It's confusing.
“Mr. Tristan's admirer.” Sophie wasn't dumb or naive. She noticed Ophelia's obvious admiration for
Tristan.
“No way! A love rival?”
“She's not a love rival. Her feelings are one-sided.” No other woman exists in Tristan's eyes.
“Even if that's the case, she didn't have to come all the way here to beg for your help! What does her
situation have anything to do with you?”
What is that woman even thinking? Why does Sophie need to help her? Does she think she's all-
important?
“All right. Let's go. Don't we still need to head over to the medical association?” Sophie couldn't care
less about Ophelia because she knew Tristan didn't feel anything for her.
After leaving the University of Medicine, Ophelia went to Lombard Group. However, she was stopped in
the lobby. The security guards denied her entry.
She was the boss back in the branch office. No one had dared to treat her so. Nevertheless, she
couldn't even go past the door of Lombard Group in Jipsdale.
Regardless, she refused to leave.
When Tristan came out of the building, he saw Ophelia standing by the front door. It was raining
outside, and she was drenched, looking pitiful.
Creases marred his forehead at the sight.
However, he still didn't want to talk to her. If she thinks she'll get her way and stay at the headquarters
by putting on a pitiful act, she's wrong.
Tristan wouldn't feel any guilt for any other woman except for Sophie.
Ophelia approached Tristan.
“I like you, Mr. Tristan.” Although she knew confessing her love would lead her nowhere, she still
decided to express her feelings before leaving.
“Thank you,” Tristan replied impassively.
“Mr. Tristan, I...”
He only has two words for me? I guess I really look like a clown now.
Tears slid from the corner of her eye.
She had always been a strong woman. Yet, at that moment, she couldn't stop the tears from flowing
down her cheeks.
“Ophelia, contact Felix if you are willing to head to Koandria's branch office. Otherwise, don't show up
in front of me.”
