Chapter 239 Consoling Kisses
“He’s still refusing to give up!” Felix smirked. How could a pair of human legs hope to
catch up with the four wheels of a car? This man’s brain must be chock full of sh*t!
Sophie nced at the rearview mirror and saw Yale still in pursuit.
“Ignore him.” Sophie did not want to spare Yale another nce.
Soon, Yale could no longer be seen from the rearview mirror.
“Cheer up, Sophie!” Felix did not know how to console her. He thought she must be
feeling horrible for how her father treated her grandfather, despite how rxed she
looked.
“I’m fine.”
Sophie closed her eyes, making it in that she no longer wished to discuss the
subject. She was reluctant to borate, and Felix did not force her.
Tristan had brought Josiah to one of his mansions. Though he did not often drop by, a
housekeeper kept the ce ready for him to visit whenever he liked.
Having learned that Sophie wasing, Josiah sat in wait on the couch.
“Why don’t you take a nap, Grandpa? I’ll wake you when Sophes.” He’s getting
older and has undergone such a massive operation, so he must be tired.
“Oh, Tanny. Thank you for always being by Soph’s side.” If it weren’t for Tristan, who
was always by Sophie’s side, Josiah dared not imagine what would be of her.
Though he knew his granddaughter was a force to be reckoned with, there was no
way she could face it calmly when her beloved family member was involved, no
matter how formidable she was.
“It’s within my duty, Grandpa. Don’t worry. No matter what happens, I will always be by
Soph’s side.”
That is my promise. I will not let anybody hurt Sophie.
Felix was leading Sophie in when she heard Tristan utter those words. She was
touched.
It really is nice to have him. Otherwise, I would not know what to do.
Josiah smiled at Sophie’s arrival.
“What’s the rush, Soph? The shareholder’s meeting must have just ended. I’m fine!
You needn’t worry.”
Josiah did not wish to bring up the matter, but it concerned Sophie, his beloved
granddaughter.
He knew that the matter could not go unsaid.
Though he was the one who was kidnapped, he could no longer defend Yale.
Sophie wrapped her arms around Josiah’s waist and leaned on his chest.
Though she knew nothing would happen, Sophie felt relieved to see Josiah standing
alive and well before her.
“Don’t worry, Grandpa. Tanner Group will be my legacy from now on.” She was
determined to lead Tanner Group to new heights.
Sophie’s voice sounded rxed.
“I’m sorry, Soph,” Josiah murmured. “If it weren’t for my insistence of you taking on
that role, you wouldn’t have had to experience all of that.” Such an ordeal is tough for
anyone to endure.
Sophie grasped the old man’s hand.
“You don’t have to be sorry! It’s me you’re talking to, Grandpa. All right, you must be
tired. Rest a little here at Mr. Tristan’s before we go home. If you don’t feel like
returning, you can stay with me for a few days.”
“You know, I really am tired. I’ll take a nap here at Tanny’s, and we’ll talk after I wake
up.”
“Okay.”
After bringing Josiah into a clean room and tucking him in, Sophie emerged sometime
“I’m fine.”
Yale had really got under her skin.
He should never have done something like that to Grandpa. He should never have put
Grandpa in such a predicament.
She knew Josiah best and was sure that Josiah must be feeling horrible about Yale at
that moment, yet she could do nothing about it.
“How do you n to deal with Yale? I can help you if you don’t want to handle it.” As
Yale is her father, she must feel conflicted.
“I don’t mind handling it. Leave it to me.” Sophie was not a person to back down.
Since it already happened, the only thing I need to do is to make him give up.
He pinched her cheeks as his heart clenched.
Why does she have to make such difficult choices? She could have been a happy
princess living in a carefree castle, yet she is forced to face those matters and, even
worse, is determined not to ept help from anybody.
“I’m serious, Sophie. I want to help you handle it. I don’t want to see you conflicted.”
“I’m not conflicted.”
There’s nothing to be conflicted about. This isn’t even bad enough to trouble me.
Meanwhile, Yale sought his secretary with the intent of using Josiah as leverage for
everything he wanted. Instead, he found his secretary with a bruised and battered
face.
“What happened? Where’s Old Mr. Tanner? Didn’t I tell you bring him out?” Yale was
livid. If my trump card is no longer in my hands, what else can I do?
The secretary grabbed Yale by the cor.
“You are too much, Yale! I work for you for wages. What about you? Do you want to
cost me my life?”N?velDrama.Org is the owner.
