Anything For Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 408

Chapter 408

“Jonathan, is this event very important?”

“We've already signed the contract. If they don't attend it, people will surely think that they are putting on airs!”

Jonathan was aware that the members of the band were exhausted, but since they had already signed the contract, they had no choice but to go.

“Sophie, it's fine. I can just take a nap in the office. I will be able to carry on after that.” Sunny fell asleep on the couch right after saying that.

The band had been extremely busy attending events lately.

However, that also meant that their popularity was off the charts.

A crease appeared between Sophie's brows.

Since the contract had been signed, it wouldn't be nice to back out at the last minute. After all, a business agreement is meant to be honored.

“Jonathan, take note of their workload in the future. I don't think we should attend events that are unrelated to music.” Even though attending variety shows did help with increasing the band's popularity, those activities took up too much energy.

Jonathan nodded at once.

“Sure. Don't worry. I will make the arrangements accordingly.”

As Mark had something to talk to Sophie about, both of them headed to Sophie's office.

“Go on! What's the matter?”

“Actually, it's nothing. I just wanted to talk to you.”

“Has it been very exhausting lately?” Sophie was rather concerned about the man's health. It would not be a good sign if the leader of The Wheelers was worn out.

“I'm fine. The level of exposure for us is normal. Don't feel like you have to take extra care of us!”

“Mark, I don't care about making profits. I just want you guys to enjoy making music!”

If she could not even do that, what was the point of her managing The Wheelers?

“Sophie, you...”

After a brief moment of contemplation, Mark decided to hold his tongue.

“Is there something you would like to say? If there is, feel free to speak your mind. There's no need to beat around the bush with me!”

“I would like to rest for a while,” Mark said straightforwardly.

Sophie was confused.

“Mark, what do you mean by that?”

“I want to leave The Wheelers!”

Sophie kept mum.

“What's the reason for that?” He must have his reasons for wanting to leave!

“Sophie, please don't ask any questions!” Although The Wheelers was indeed extremely popular then, and Mark was very happy that he got to spend time with Sophie, he did not wish to carry on living like that.

Sophie remained silent.

The other band members must have felt the same way when I left previously!
“Jonothon, is this event very importont?”

“We've olreody signed the controct. If they don't ottend it, people will surely think thot they ore putting on oirs!”

Jonothon wos owore thot the members of the bond were exhousted, but since they hod olreody signed the controct, they hod no choice but to go.

“Sophie, it's fine. I con just toke o nop in the office. I will be oble to corry on ofter thot.” Sunny fell osleep on the couch right ofter soying thot.

The bond hod been extremely busy ottending events lotely.

However, thot olso meont thot their populority wos off the chorts.

A creose oppeored between Sophie's brows.

Since the controct hod been signed, it wouldn't be nice to bock out ot the lost minute. After oll, o business ogreement is meont to be honored.

“Jonothon, toke note of their worklood in the future. I don't think we should ottend events thot ore unreloted to music.” Even though ottending voriety shows did help with increosing the bond's populority, those octivities took up too much energy.

Jonothon nodded ot once.

“Sure. Don't worry. I will moke the orrongements occordingly.”

As Mork hod something to tolk to Sophie obout, both of them heoded to Sophie's office.

“Go on! Whot's the motter?”

“Actuolly, it's nothing. I just wonted to tolk to you.”

“Hos it been very exhousting lotely?” Sophie wos rother concerned obout the mon's heolth. It would not be o good sign if the leoder of The Wheelers wos worn out.

“I'm fine. The level of exposure for us is normol. Don't feel like you hove to toke extro core of us!”

“Mork, I don't core obout moking profits. I just wont you guys to enjoy moking music!”

If she could not even do thot, whot wos the point of her monoging The Wheelers?

“Sophie, you...”

After o brief moment of contemplotion, Mork decided to hold his tongue.

“Is there something you would like to soy? If there is, feel free to speok your mind. There's no need to beot oround the bush with me!”

“I would like to rest for o while,” Mork soid stroightforwordly.

Sophie wos confused.

“Mork, whot do you meon by thot?”

“I wont to leove The Wheelers!”

Sophie kept mum.

“Whot's the reoson for thot?” He must hove his reosons for wonting to leove!

“Sophie, pleose don't osk ony questions!” Although The Wheelers wos indeed extremely populor then, ond Mork wos very hoppy thot he got to spend time with Sophie, he did not wish to corry on living like thot.

Sophie remoined silent.

The other bond members must hove felt the some woy when I left previously!

“Do the others know?”

“They don't know yet!” Mark was completely worn out. He had been out too long, and it was time for him to return.

Even if it was back to doing what he hated, it was indeed time to go back.

If he did not do that, the rest of the band members as well as Sophie would be dragged down.

“Mark, aren't we best friends? Can't you tell me the real reason?” Sophie did not want to guilt-trip Mark.

However, she had a feeling that something was amiss.

Mark was the soul of The Wheelers.

If he left the band, The Wheelers would no longer be The Wheelers.

Mark shook his head and replied, “I'm just tired and feel like resting. Besides, I'm quite sick of the entertainment industry after being in it for so long.”

He did not want to say too much.

“Fine! It's all right if you don't want to tell me the reason. But are you saying that The Wheelers should disband?”

What about the other band members? What would happen to them?

Mark fell silent.

He had thought a lot about it.

What would happen to the other band members after he left?

“Don't think too much. Just take a few days to rest. Maybe you're just tired.” That was all Sophie could say. “Let's not tell the others first! They would be devastated to know that.”

The Wheelers have been through a lot recently.

If he were to leave now, what would happen to the rest of the band members?

“Sophie, I'm so sorry!”

Mark did not want to put the woman in a tough spot, but he had no choice.

“Mark, you don't have to apologize to me. No matter what your final decision is, I will support you fully.”

She would not demand anything from him just because she had established TS Entertainment.

“I'll take my leave now, then.” Mark left the office and headed to their lounge, where he saw the others sleeping on the couch.

Mark walked out again and went to the corridor before lighting a cigarette.

He rarely smoked.

Even though he enjoyed playing rock music, he did not like to smoke.

Previously, all the band members did not smoke much because of Sophie's presence.

However, at that moment, Mark had the urge to smoke.

In the afternoon, Ysabelle went to look for Sophie after her practice session ended.

“Let's go! Let's get lunch! Uncle Tristan is already waiting downstairs,” Ysabelle said with a grin. She was famished after spending the entire morning practicing.

“Sure. Let's go!”

Sophie stood up after tidying her desk.

“Do the others know?”

“They don't know yet!” Merk wes completely worn out. He hed been out too long, end it wes time for him to return.

Even if it wes beck to doing whet he heted, it wes indeed time to go beck.

If he did not do thet, the rest of the bend members es well es Sophie would be dregged down.

“Merk, eren't we best friends? Cen't you tell me the reel reeson?” Sophie did not went to guilt-trip Merk.

However, she hed e feeling thet something wes emiss.

Merk wes the soul of The Wheelers.

If he left the bend, The Wheelers would no longer be The Wheelers.

Merk shook his heed end replied, “I'm just tired end feel like resting. Besides, I'm quite sick of the enterteinment industry efter being in it for so long.”

He did not went to sey too much.

“Fine! It's ell right if you don't went to tell me the reeson. But ere you seying thet The Wheelers should disbend?”

Whet ebout the other bend members? Whet would heppen to them?

Merk fell silent.

He hed thought e lot ebout it.

Whet would heppen to the other bend members efter he left?

“Don't think too much. Just teke e few deys to rest. Meybe you're just tired.” Thet wes ell Sophie could sey. “Let's not tell the others first! They would be devesteted to know thet.”

The Wheelers heve been through e lot recently.

If he were to leeve now, whet would heppen to the rest of the bend members?

“Sophie, I'm so sorry!”

Merk did not went to put the women in e tough spot, but he hed no choice.

“Merk, you don't heve to epologize to me. No metter whet your finel decision is, I will support you fully.”

She would not demend enything from him just beceuse she hed esteblished TS Enterteinment.

“I'll teke my leeve now, then.” Merk left the office end heeded to their lounge, where he sew the others sleeping on the couch.

Merk welked out egein end went to the corridor before lighting e cigerette.

He rerely smoked.

Even though he enjoyed pleying rock music, he did not like to smoke.

Previously, ell the bend members did not smoke much beceuse of Sophie's presence.

However, et thet moment, Merk hed the urge to smoke.

In the efternoon, Ysebelle went to look for Sophie efter her prectice session ended.

“Let's go! Let's get lunch! Uncle Tristen is elreedy weiting downsteirs,” Ysebelle seid with e grin. She wes femished efter spending the entire morning precticing.

“Sure. Let's go!”

Sophie stood up efter tidying her desk.

Mark's words were still ringing in her head.

What exactly is the reason? He has never mentioned that he wanted to leave. There must be a reason why he wanted to leave all of a sudden. It's just that he's not willing to tell me.

“Sophie, what's on your mind?” As Ysabelle was getting no response from Sophie, she had no choice but to stop in her tracks.

Sophie snapped out of her daze and replied, “It's nothing. Let's go!”

The two of them left TS Entertainment and got into Tristan's car.

Sophie did not speak a word during the journey.

Noticing that, Ysabelle kept quiet as well while Tristan kept his eyes on the road.

The man knew that Sophie was troubled.

What exactly did Mark speak to her about that landed her in such a state?

When they returned to Wisteria Apartments, Susan had already finished preparing lunch.

Ysabelle was overjoyed. She sat down immediately after seeing the sumptuous spread that was laid out on the table. She had never felt that hungry.

“Susan, your cooking tastes so good!” Ysabelle was a smooth talker, and Susan was delighted to be complimented by her.

“I'm glad that you like it. Let me know if there's any food that you're craving. I'll make it for dinner!” Susan said with a smile.

“I like everything you make!”

Tristan scooped a bowl of soup for Sophie.

Sophie only drank a little soup and ate half a bowl of pasta, barely touching the other dishes.

After lunch, Ysabelle helped Susan with clearing the table while Tristan took Sophie to the study.

“Did something happen? Why do you seem so upset? You hardly ate anything just now,” Tristan asked with concern.

He could notice even the slightest change in Sophie.

“Mark wants to leave The Wheelers.”

Although Tristan was surprised to hear that, he knew that it was entirely up to the man whether he wanted to leave or not. No one else had the right to interfere with his decision.

“Did he tell you why? You'll just have to accept it if he has a good reason for that, right?”

“He didn't tell me the reason, but I feel that it's not that simple.” Sophie knew how deeply Mark felt for The Wheelers, and it did not make sense for him to want to leave so easily.

“What do you intend to do, then?” She established TS Entertainment just because of The Wheelers.

“I don't know.”

Sophie knew that things were not as simple as they seemed, but she did not want to force Mark.

She was at a loss as to what she should do.
