Anything For Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 352

Chapter 352

“But, Clayton, there's nothing we can do now!” Wilbur replied. Even though they wanted to negotiate, the other party was not giving them a chance to do so. The situation was basically hopeless.

Hearing that, Clayton could only get up from the hospital bed. Since Sophie refused to meet him, he had no choice but to visit her himself.

Wilbur asked, “Clayton, you have yet to recover fully. Where are you going?”

“Bring me my clothes!” Clayton demanded. I can't wait until I'm fully recovered. I might be dead meat if I don't think of a solution soon.

“Clayton, you really shouldn't rush this,” advised Wilbur, who was still worried about him.

However, Clayton ignored him. The former grabbed his clothes, got changed, and walked out of the ward.

Seeing how adamant Clayton was, Wilbur had no choice but to hurry after him.

When the evening self-study session ended, Sophie saw Clayton and his assistant waiting by the school's entrance. They must be here to meet me. Good. He didn't bring many bodyguards with him this time. He must've realized I couldn't be harmed, no matter how many bodyguards he brought.

As soon as Wilbur spotted her, he rushed over. “Ms. Tanner, whatever demands that you have, we are willing to negotiate.”

“I have no demands!” Sophie replied.

“Please don't be like this, Ms. Tanner. Everything can be discussed. Besides, this is a rather small industry. There's really no need to force us into a dead end. We'll still meet again in the future.” He was already being very mindful of his tone.

“Fine. Since you guys are so desperate to talk to me, I shall give you a chance.” She was not an unreasonable person, after all.

Wilbur was relieved to hear that from her. Truth be told, he feared she would put up a stubborn front.

“Don't go with them, Sophie. Who knows what they plan to do to you?” Ysabelle grabbed Sophie's hand to stop her from leaving.

Patting the back of Ysabelle's hand, Sophie assured, “Don't worry. I'll be fine.”

I'm not going to let Sunny's matters slide just like that. Clayton has to pay the price for beating Sunny up to that state.

“Sophie, I know you're great at fighting, but some people are vile and shameless. What if... Forget it. If you're going, then I'm going with you,” Ysabelle insisted. That way, they could take care of each other if something happened.

Sophie did not object when she saw how insistent Ysabelle was.

“Let's go,” she voiced.

However, Wilbur did not move. Instead, he glanced at Ysabelle, for Clayton never asked to meet her.

“Ms. Tanner, Clayton wants to meet you alone. He did not inquire for her.”

“What the heck? What's the meaning of this? Who's the one begging for mercy now? How dare you make objections here? Fine. If you don't want to meet me, then you can give up on meeting Sophie as well,” Ysabelle snarled.

Do they not understand the situation they're in now?

“Since you guys have yet to understand the current situation, then we won't be able to come to a conclusion, even if we met.”

Hearing that from Sophie, Wilbur had no choice but to compromise. “All right. This way, ladies.”

Ysabelle, still feeling uneasy, sent Tristan a text to update him about the situation before following behind Clayton's assistant.

Tristan's expression turned grim after he received the text. Clayton isn't giving up, huh?

“What's wrong, Mr. Tristan?”

“Clayton went looking for Sophie and Ysabelle.”

“What?” Upon hearing that, Felix shot to his feet. “Mr. Tristan, I think I'd better go over to check on them. Sophie is capable, but my Ysabelle is naive. She's no match for Clayton!”

Tristan immediately gave him the side-eye.

What's that supposed to mean?

“Mr. Tristan, Clayton must be meeting Sophie because of Sky Media's matters. After all, that company is on the verge of bankruptcy,” Sean piped up.

“Mmh. Go and get ready. I want you to be in charge of Sunny's lawsuit,” instructed Tristan. Since Clayton has a death wish, then I shall give him what he wants. How dare he refuse to submit to his fate when things have come to this? I'm not going to let him off.

“Okay, no problem.” As a matter of fact, there was no need for Sean to be involved in that case. However, he was willing to handle the lawsuit himself because it concerned Sophie.

Charles, who was smoking a cigarette, heard the arrangements and immediately asked, “Hey, everyone has a task. What should I do, then? Is there anything I can help with?”

After all, they always did everything together. He did not want to be left out.

“You and Felix can keep an eye on the project Clayton wants. Something like this is happening because he hasn't learned from the previous lesson,” Tristan uttered.

This time, I must make Clayton learn that he has no right to bully those around me, including my pet.

“Okay. Leave it to me. Don't worry about it.”

“I'm going over to check on the situation,” Tristan announced, worried for Sophie.

Hearing that, Felix stood up hurriedly and offered, “I'll go with you.”

No matter what, he was determined to protect Ysabelle. Even though she was naive, he still liked her the most.

In the meantime, Clayton quickly got out of the car when he saw Wilbur bringing Sophie over. His behavior toward her was nothing but respect.

This young lady is indeed gorgeous, but the punches she packs hurt terribly.

At the sight of Clayton, whose wounds had yet to recover, Sophie snorted. His injuries were, after all, considered minor compared to Sunny's. The urge to hit the man before him rose in her heart when she thought of Sunny, who was still in the hospital.

“Ms. Tanner, there must be a misunderstanding about the matter between The Wheelers and me. I'm now aware of your relationship with them. What about this? I will not take over The Wheelers, nor will I go looking for trouble with them in the future. In return, I'd like this matter to end here. Look. You've also given me a terrible beating,” Clayton said.

He was hoping for both parties to take a step back.

There might be a possibility of them working together in the future, anyway.

As such, they didn't have to continue the dispute.

Clayton felt that he was practically discarding his dignity, yet Sophie was unfazed.

“What do you think, Ms. Tanner?” At that point, all he wanted was to solve the matter. It had not been easy for him to meet Sophie.

After all, Tristan, whom he regarded as a psycho, was her backer.

As of then, he was no match for him yet.

Through the recent events, Clayton learned that a significant difference existed between him and Tristan in terms of power.

“Do you really want to solve this matter?” Sophie took out a piece of gum from her pocket, tore the packaging open, and tossed the gum into her mouth.

“That's right. As you can see, I'm badly injured, yet I've still come to meet you in person. Of course, I want to solve this matter,” Clayton replied.

“All right, then. Here's my suggestion. Go back, write a public letter of apology to Sunny, and post it online. Make sure you write it yourself. It has to be sincere,” Sophie demanded, dead set on avenging Sunny.

“What are you talking about, Sophie? You'd better not push your luck,” Wilbur roared when he heard her words.

The young lady raised her brow. “What's wrong? Are you not willing to do it? Fine, then. We can forget this conversation ever happened.” She never liked forcing ideas upon others.
