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 glanced at the rearview mirror and saw Yale still in pursuit.
“Ignore him.” Sophie did not want to spare Yale another glance.
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 relaxed she looked.
“I’m fine.”
Sophie closed her eyes, making it plain that she no longer wished to discuss the subject. She was reluctant to elaborate, 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 place ready for him to visit whenever he liked.
Having learned that Sophie was coming, Josiah sat in wait on the couch.
“Why don’t you take a nap, Grandpa? I’ll wake you when Soph comes.” 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 become 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 relaxed.
“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 later and immediately spotted Tristan waiting for her.
