Anything For Her Chapter 173


    Chapter 173 Tristan Has Not Tasted The Holy Grail


    “Tell Tanny that if he’s bogged down by work, he doesn’t have toe, as I’m almost fully


    recovered.” There’s no need for him to be at two ces at the same time.“I will. You should focus on


    resting and not worry about such matters.” No sooner had Sophie finished than the door opened with


    Morgan and Tristan walking in.One could tell from the tailor-made suit he was wearing that he had


    come from the office.Tristan looked so dashing in his outfit that it was hard for anyone to peel their eyes


    away.“Mr. Tristan, please have a seat. I’ll take care of these.” Morgan took over the dinner that Tristan


    had brought with him.“Why did youe? Aren’t you supposed to be busy?”“I have to be here


    regardless of how busy I am. Besides, it’s not anything that’s particrly important. So, Old Mr. Tanner,


    how do you feel today?” Tristan asked with concern.“Tanny, I’m almost fully recovered and will be


    discharged in a few days. There’s no need to trouble yourself traveling back and forth.” Both of them


    were exhausted, fussing over Josiah’s affairs. “You too, Soph. It’s about time you go back to school.


    Your exams kick off on Monday.”At the end of the day, she was still a student who should be prioritizing


    her studies.Furthermore, the one-month deadline was almost upon her. Can I really take on the role of


    acting CEO of Tanner Group? Those were the issues that were constantly on her mind.“Mm-hmm. I


    know. I’ll be punctual for my exams on Monday.” No matter what, she resolved to participate in the


    physicspetition that was going to be held after the holidays.“My point is for you to go to school


    tomorrow. Even though you have a good grasp of your lessons, the revisions for the term exam are still


    very important. As my granddaughter, you always have to take everything you do seriously. Do you


    understand?”To him, the result was secondary. What mattered was that she would always do her


    best.Sophie fell silent.“What’s wrong? Aren’t you going to listen to me? Have dinner with me now, and


    get Tanny to send you back home to rest so that you can attend school tomorrow.”“All right. In that


    case, promise me that you’ll obey whatever Arius says in the hospital.”Sophie’s mind was put at ease


    after cing him under Arius’ care. Coincidentally, he had yet to return to Anndur.“Fine. I


    promise.”Once they were done with dinner, Tristan drove Sophie back to Wisteria Apartments.“Rest


    early.” Tristan had to leave as he had other engagements.“Mr. Tristan, about yton, do you need meCcontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    —”“It’s fine. I can handle him.” Tristan reassured her, “Everything is under control.”yton is no more


    than an insect who doesn’t even deserve my attention.“Anyway, I’m heading back out.”“Mm-hmm. Go


    ahead.” When Sophie walked to the door to see him out, she gave him a curious look when he


    hesitated to leave.What is he waiting for?“Mr. Tristan, is there anything else?”Reaching out his hand,


    Tristan pulled her into his arms before giving her a kiss on her forehead.“What am I to do? At the sight


    of you, I no longer want to leave. Instead, I feel the urge to stay by your side.”Sophie was rendered


    speechless.How is this my fault? I didn’t even do anything!“Mr. Tristan!” Sophie gently pushed him


    away before staggering back. “Go!”“In that case, just give me a kiss. Once you kiss me, I’ll be


    motivated to leave.” Tristan decided to adopt a different approach.Nheless, the sudden change in


    his demeanor gave Sophie a shock.“Mr. Tristan!” Even though she had developed feelings for him, it


    was still not in her character to wear her heart on her sleeve.Tristan sighed in resignation.“It’s all right.


    I’ll wait for the day when you’ll take the initiative.” Tristan nted the gentlest of pecks on her lips


    before leaving quickly.If he didn’t leave soon, he was worried that he would be overwhelmed by his


    growing desire to stay.By the time Tristan arrived at Blossom Garden, the other three were already


    waiting. Felix quickly pulled out a bench to wee him.“Didn’t we agree to meet in twenty minutes?


    What took you so long? Were you doing something unspeakable with Sophie?”“Felix, what are you


    thinking? If both of them were really doing it, it would be impossible for Mr. Tristan to get here in twenty


    minutes. At the very least, he would need two hours. My guess is that Mr. Tristan hasn’t yet tasted the


    Holy Grail,” Charles teased.Without any hesitation, Sean nodded while adding, “That’s true. With Mr.


    Tristan’s stamina, two hours would be the minimum.”Felix, too, nodded in agreement.“Mr. Tristan, I’m


    sorry to have underestimated your capabilities. Given how enamored you are with Sophie, I’m sure


    Sophie will not be able to escape your clutches for three days and nights during your first escapade


    together.Felix had barely finished when the other three burst intoughter.“The three of you look like


    you’re enjoying yourselves. Now that my enemy is at my gates, all of you don’t seem to be bothered, is


    that it?” Despite Tristan’s calm tone, it was enough to send a chill down everyone’s spine.“Mr. Tristan,


    yton is desperate to make his presence felt. Since he has a death wish, why don’t you help him


    along his journey?”Despite the Zales family’s influence, they were still insignificant insectspared to


    them.Sean nodded.“Exactly! The Zales family is no match for us at all.” Even though yton might


    prove troublesome, he didn’t pose a threat to theirbined strength.“Mm-hmm. Since he wants to


    y, let’s oblige him. Besides, my hand is itching to get back into the game after so long.” A devious


    look descended upon Charles’ face.Since he had his dinner with Sophie, all Tristan did was pour


    himself a ss of wine.“Mr. Tristan, when you busied yourself with Old Mr. Tanner’s affairs over thest


    few days. I must say that I have never seen you care so much about anyone.” At that moment, Sean


    felt that Tristan was serious.“Love makes people blind,” Felix joked.“Felix, look who’s talking? You had


    better mind your own affairs. Despite watching Ysabelle grow up, you have yet to achieve any


    sess,” Charles ridiculed him mercilessly.Stumped, Felix felt disheartened over thement.


    Nheless, there was little he could do, as Charles had spoken the truth!Subsequently, the group


    discussed the massive investmentmitted by Lombard Group.“This time, yton must be coveting


    that same investment.” Despite hisckadaisical attitude toward his affairs with Ysabelle, Felix was


    extremelypetent at work.“He already has his eyes on it. Since he intends toe in, we should let


    him do so. This time, I’ll make sure he throws up whatever he manages to chew off.” yton had


    struck a nerve of his.“Mr. Tristan, you seemed to be particrly concerned this time.” This wasn’t the


    first time yton targeted Lombard Group. It was just that Tristan wasn’t bothered by his previous


    attempts.“He is now trying to get close to Willow, but she isn’t his true objective.”Just as expected, it’s


    all about Sophie. Only she can elicit such a response from him.The next day, when Sophie came out of


    Wisteria Apartments, she saw yton sending Willow to school.At the sight of Sophie, he stopped his


    car on purpose.“Isn’t that your sister? Ask her to get in the car,” yton ordered Willow.
