Anything For Her Chapter 271


    Chapter 271 Just Call Him Tanny “That’s not what I meant.” Caleb was shocked. He often heard his


    mentor talking about the weirdo Barney from the medical association. Obviously, he was well aware of


    Barney’s abilities. “Let’s drop this matter. Your father could even threaten us with his life, so I don’t think


    it matters if he’s back for Christmas or not.” There was no need to ruin everyone’s mood because of


    him. “You should go first. I’ll call Sophie,” said Josiah. Sophie is a smart and observant girl. I bet she


    knew what Caleb meant as soon as Caleb brought this up. Sophie was someone who couldn’t care


    less about people who weren’t sincere toward her. Even if it were her own brother, she would do the


    same. “Okay.” Caleb didn’t say anything else and went downstairs straight away.


    When Charmaine saw hime downstairs, she couldn’t help but sigh. “Caleb, you just got home, so


    you should rest well. You don’t have to bother yourself with those matters.” Back then, when Caleb


    wasn’t around, Charmaine saw Yale’s men take Josiah away and also saw the way Yale climbed


    upstairs to threaten his family, saying that he’d jump off the building if they disagreed with him. Besides,


    she also saw how he pathetically got down the stairs when his threat didn’t work. Caleb frowned.


    “Mom, you’ve been married to Dad for so many years. Are you going to stay out of this, too?”


    Charmaine was exasperated. “You know that I’ve never had the right to say anything in this household.


    What do you expect me to say?” It was true that she couldn’t say anything regarding that matter. “You


    guys should eat. I’m going to talk to Dad.” Caleb and Yale had always been close. Therefore, Caleb felt


    bad about his father being out there all alone. “Caleb, I’ll go with you. I miss Dad too,” Willow said,


    standing up immediately after hearing what Caleb said. “We’re going to start eating soon! Your grandpa


    won’t be happy if all of you leave!” Charmaine was frustrated. What do I do with them? They’re really a


    handful! “I don’t feel like eating, so I’ll pass. Let’s go, Wi.” He still had a few questions that he wanted


    to ask his father in person. Charmaine’s expression soured when she saw Caleb and Willow leave the


    dining hall. I should leave and go shopping too.


    Otherwise, Dad will get mad again when hees downstairs and sees no one here. At that moment,


    Josiah and Sophie had already gotten downstairs and saw that Charmaine was the only one in the


    dining hall. As expected, Josiah’s face darkened. However, he didn’t say anything. Instead, he walked


    to his seat and sat down. “Let’s sit and eat!” Josiah said. He picked up his fork and was ready to dig in.


    Sophie sat next to him and put some food on his te. “Grandpa, this dish looks tasty. You should eat


    more.” Sophie didn’t mind Caleb and Willow’s absence since she didn’t like them in the first ce. The


    food tastes better when they’re not around. Josiah put a big drumstick on Sophie’s te. “Here. Eat


    this.” Actually, Josiah also hoped they could celebrate Christmas as a family, but now it seemed it was


    impossible. It’s better that Caleb doesn’t return! Now everyone’s unhappy. Charmaine was hesitant to


    speak as she sat at the other side of the table. Facing such a situation at home, she had no idea what


    else she could say. But we’re family. Do we really have to carry on like this?


    “Dad, why don’t we let Yalee back for Christmas? We’re family, aren’t we? We shouldn’t let things


    go on like this.” No matter how terrible Yale was, he was still the head of the household. This family


    isn’t whole when the head isn’t around. Josiah mmed his fork on the table. “What’s wrong with all of


    you? Caleb doesn’t know what Yale did, but don’t you know? Why bother asking him toe back


    when he’s done something as horrible as that?” Morgan quickly brought Josiah’s medicine over when


    he saw how angry the old man had gotten. “Old Mr. Tanner, here. Take your meds. Calm down.” Sophie


    took the medicine from Morgan and poured a ss of water for Josiah. The old man then swallowed


    his pill. “Grandpa, don’t be mad. It’s not good for your health,” Sophie said exasperatedly. This mess is


    so annoying. “Dad, I know you’re very angry about this matter, but if this goes on, the Tanner family will


    be a joke in Jipsdale. I can’t even go out without feeling humiliated now because the public would


    gossip about me whenever I’m out.” The room fell silent. Charmaine’s life only ended up that way


    because she cared too much about what others said and did. “That’s it. I’m full.” It was as if Josiah


    didn’t hear what Charmaine said.


    He got up and went upstairs. Sophie took his arm and ascended the stairs with him. With that, only


    Charmaine was left in the dining room. Was I wrong? I have the family’s best interest at heart! Why


    can’t anyone understand me? Once Sophie brought Josiah to his room to rest, she sat on his bed and


    apanied him. Josiah’s heart ached when he saw her like that. No one can understand her, right?


    She’s still so young! But because of me, an old man who has a foot in the grave, she has to bear all of


    this burden in the Tanner family! “I’m sorry, Sophie. It’s all my fault.” If he hadn’t insisted on asking her


    to return, she didn’t need to bear all those. She held his hand. “I don’t mind it, Grandpa.” I really don’t


    care what others say. “Why are you so tough when you’re still so young? It breaks my heart!” He was


    truly heartbroken and felt bad for Sophie. “Grandpa, all that matters is that you’re okay. Leave the rest


    to me, all right?” “Okay.” She’s just a minor. But how did she be so tough that even an old, dying


    man like me can rely on her? “You should take a nap.


    I need to go to Transfix Cosmetics in the afternoon. Once Ie home, I’ll bring you out for delicious


    food, okay? Let’s not eat at home today.” “Okay. Remember to ask Mr. Tristan to join us. It’s been ages


    since Ist ate with him.” I guess Mr. Tristan’s the only person who can protect Sophie well. “Okay. I’ll


    invite Tristan. Grandpa, don’t call him ‘Mr. Tristan’ anymore in the future. Just call him ‘Tanny.’” You’re


    my grandpa, so you have the right to call him that. Josiah raised his eyebrows. “Does that mean you


    like Tanny?” Sophie’s young, but it’s good that she can have someone to rely on. Sophie fell into deep


    thought for a while because she didn’t expect Josiah to gossip. She then tilted her head and said, “I


    can’t say for sure yet. That depends on his performance.” “Ah. That makes sense.


    Although Tanny is amazing, our Sophie isn’t someone who can be trifled with.” My granddaughter is the


    most fantastic person in the world, so she deserves the best! “Grandpa, I have to go to Transfix


    Cosmetics now.” “Okay. Go on. Be careful!” Sophie went straight to Transfix Cosmetics after she left


    Josiah’s room.ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
