Anything For Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 209

Chapter 209 Tristan In Jipsdale

Sophie took a step forward and reached up to adjust his collar.

She drew back to get an overlook of him and a satisfied smile stretched across her lips.

“How can that be? You look pretty!”

Can pretty even be used to describe men? Whatever. That’s not important. The important thing here is I’m about to meet her grandpa officially.

“I was rushing today, so I didn’t bring anything with me.” Tristan was annoyed with his carelessness.

How can I go empty-handed to meet Old Mr. Tanner for the first time?

“Mr. Tristan.”

“What?” Did I say something wrong? It’s like a rule to bring something to a meeting with their significant other’s family. No one should go empty-handed the first time. I know I’m right about that.

“No, really. You don’t have to bring anything. All you have to do is be there. My grandpa really likes you. He’ll be more than happy to see you in person.” I’m sure of that, at least.

“All right.” I know Old Mr. Tanner likes me. That is all the more reason I can’t disappoint him.

Tristan reached for her hand. His large hand completely engulfed hers.

Sophie didn’t expect he would reach his hand back for hers with her standing behind him. However, she quickly snapped out of it and followed him into the house.

The minute Tristan and Sophie entered the house, the housekeeper spotted Sophie and immediately greeted, “You’re back, Ms. Sophie! Old Mr. Tanner and the rest are having BBQ. Go on in.”

Josiah didn’t know Sophie would visit at such a time, so he was secretly having a BBQ.

Nobody dared to stop him. That was why the housekeeper was looking at Sophie like a savior.

Old Mr. Tanner is too stubborn.

“All right. I got it.”

Sophie’s pace quickened. Grandpa is still recovering, so he can’t eat whatever he wants.

“Grandpa, didn’t I tell you before that you can only eat bland food?” This person is getting older by the day, but so is his stubbornness. He is not like this before.

Josiah’s head jerked at Sophia’s voice. He saw Tristan and Sophie standing in front of him.

Josiah instantly had a smile on his face the minute his gaze landed on Tristan.

“Tanny! Come and sit! Have BBQ with me. It’s the best food to have in winter.”

“Give me a minute, Old Mr. Tanner. Let me wash my hands first, and I’ll join you,” Tristan answered with a smile.

When Yale saw Tristan, he immediately got up and crossed the room over to him.

“Soph, bring Mr—” It’ll probably make Tristan feels unwelcome if I call him Mr. Tristan after Dad calls him Tanny. “Oh, bring Tanny to wash his hands. You definitely need more people to have a BBQ. The more, the merrier.” Yale tried to play host.

Willow was sitting on the other side of the table, watching the entire scene silently. It was an unpleasant sight to her.

See that? Even my father is fawning over that man. Is he really more powerful than the Laird family? So Sophie has easily gotten what I’d been struggling for once again.

Charmaine noticed the change in Yale’s attitude, so she hurriedly went to grab two extra sets of cutlery and set them up on the table. Sophie led Tristan to wash his hands, then took a seat.

Josiah was in the seat beside hers while Tristan was on her other side.

“It’s cold outside. Have a hot drink first.”

Josiah had the housekeeper pour some hot tea for them.
