Anything For Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 22

Chapter 22 Lodging A Report

Given Ysabelle could not return home due to her condition, Tristan sent both the girls to Wisteria Apartments.

As Ysabelle could spend more time with Sophie, she was immensely delighted.

Even though she was drained, she happily rolled around in her bed until she finally fell asleep.

“Let me handle Queenie,” uttered Tristan.

“How?” He made it sound like he was dealing with the trash.

“You don’t have to concern yourself with that.” I’ll also deal with those thugs, lest they trouble her again in the future.

“You can handle the thugs, but let me deal with Queenie. I’m the one she has a problem with.”

“But—”

“Don’t interfere in girls’ problems, Mr. Tristan. Don’t you have faith that I can handle it?”

“Of course I have.”

“Okay, I’ll go to bed, then.”

When Sophie was about to go to her bedroom, Tristan stopped her.

“If things don’t go well. Let me know. I don’t want what happened today to repeat.”

“It will go well.”

It was not until the next morning that someone from the nearby residential area noticed Queenie.

Once she spotted a person, Queenie burst into tears.

A woman in her fifties exclaimed, “Goodness! Why are you tied up here?”

The woman quickly untied Queenie.

“Let me take you to the hospital, young lady.”

“No need. Take me to the police station instead. I want to lodge a report,” replied Queenie, completely forgetting who kidnapped who first.

In the meantime, Tristan did not allow Ysabelle to go to school because of her injury.

“I’m fine, Uncle Tristan. With Sophie by my side, no one would dare bully me.”

I’ll be happy to have Sophie with me.

“Your leg’s injured, Ysabelle. It’s better for you to stay at home.”

“All right, then.”

Her answer made Tristan frown. Since when is she this obedient? Also, why is she looking at Sophie like that? It isn’t normal.

“Sophie is a girl, Ysabelle. Keep that in mind.”

“I know that!” Ysabelle stared at her uncle strangely.

Just then, Sophie cleared her throat and took her bag, ready to go to school.

“Rest well. Someone will be here and make breakfast for you shortly,” said Tristan.

“Why am I home alone?” Ysabelle complained grumpily, only to be ignored by her uncle.

In no time, Tristan caught up with Sophie.

“I’ll drive you to school.”

“No need. I’ll just have breakfast outside and walk to school after that.”

It’s just a few minutes’ journey. I don’t need him to drive me.

“Then let’s have breakfast together!”

“Are you sure?”

I’m going to a nearby simple outlet. Is he even used to such food?

“Yup.”

Of course I’m sure. I still have time.

After they entered a clean breakfast outlet, Sophie told him she wanted a bagel and a cup of coffee.

“What about you?”

“Same as you.”

Hence, Sophie ended up ordering two sets of her order.

By the time she returned, Tristan had already used tissue papers to wipe the chair and table for her.

Seeing that, Sophie could not help but smile. Huh, I didn’t think he’d do this for anyone.

When their orders were served shortly after, Sophie dipped her bagel in the coffee. She liked to eat it this way.

Tristan then mirrored her action.

“Try it. I like to eat like this.”

Tristan gave it a try. It’s quite good.
