Anything For Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 703

Chapter 703 Sophie Returns

“Sophie, I owe you my thanks after everything that had happened. If it hadn't been for you, Ysabelle wouldn't have returned safely! Thank you so much. No matter what problems you face in the future, let me know, and I'll help you with whatever I can!”

Ysabelle turned to look at Felix, who always knew her like the back of his hand, and thought what he said made sense. This time, if it weren't for Sophie, Ysabelle would not have returned alive.

“I've told you guys before that I'm just doing what I should do. If it had been someone else instead of Ysabelle in the same situation, I would've rescued them too.” That's why they shouldn't feel like they're carrying a huge burden.

“There's nothing else I have to say, but if anyone dares to bully you in the future, I'll be the first one to defend you. I won't ever let them get away with it.”

Felix was a loyal and honorable person. He would definitely keep his words.

“Okay. I'm counting on you.”

Mark, who was sitting opposite Sophie, could not help shaking his head. Sophie is too sentimental. Sometimes, I hope that she could be a little more cold-blooded. That way, she won't get hurt as much.

Following that, Ysabelle stood up, too.

“Sophie, I don't have much left to say either, but I'll remember what you did for me this time around,” Ysabelle said as she took a sip of her wine.

Ysabelle and Felix made the atmosphere turn sort of depressing.

In an attempt to lighten the mood, Sarah smiled and said, “All right. You've returned to us safely, and that's all that matters. Let's raise our glasses to welcome Sophie's safe return.”

Everyone cheered and ate dinner happily.

Cecelia said, “Sarah, did you really make this? I'm surprised that you can cook so well. Can I go over to your place and freeload on food in the future?”

Sarah's cooking was no different than those of five-star chefs.

“You can, but as you know, I'm usually busy and don't always have time to cook.” Not even William had the luxury to enjoy her cooking often.

“You're amazing, Sarah. You're not only an Iron Lady, but you're also an amazing chef!” praised Cecelia sincerely, for she only knew how to cook pasta.

Cooking was too difficult for her. She could not seem to master it no matter how hard she tried.

Ysabelle could not help chiming in, “Aunt Sarah makes the best meals, but I don't get to enjoy it often, either. Every time she cooks, it's for Sophie's sake.”

Aunt Sarah really likes Sophie.

“Thank you, Sarah!” Sophie immediately said.

“Don't listen to that brat's nonsense! If you guys like my cooking, I can cook for you whenever I'm free,” Sarah replied. That's the least I can do for them.

“Cooking is hard work. It would be best if you didn't do it often,” Sophie said. It's really tiring to cook, especially today. Although we have help from the housekeepers, it's still tiring to cook for so many people.

“It's fine, really.”

Sean complimented her cooking as well. “Sarah, your cooking is the best!”

He seldom complimented others, yet Sarah's cooking was so good that even he could not help singing praises.

Sarah felt embarrassed by their compliments.

“Tristan's cooking is not bad, either, though he can only make a few dishes. I'm sure he'll improve with time.”

A few of them were often summoned to be Tristan's lab rats, so they knew he was learning how to cook.

They also knew why Tristan was learning how to cook.

“Not bad, Mr. Tristan. You're an outstanding man.” It was indeed impressive of him to learn how to cook for the sake of the woman he loved.

“I'm still learning, but if you all don't mind my cooking, you're welcome to come over and have a taste,” Tristan piped up. Sarah is often busy, but if Sophie likes her cooking, I can learn how to make these dishes, too.

“I'd be honored to become a lab rat,” Ysabelle said with a smile.

Tristan grabbed a piece of tissue for Sophie when he noticed she was done eating.

Sophie took the tissue from him and wiped her mouth and hands.

“Are you full?” Tristan whispered into her ear. He was very attentive when it came to taking care of her.

“Yeah, I'm full. Don't mind me. You should eat too.” He's barely eating! Instead, he's been looking after me all this while.

“Okay.”

Tristan appeared graceful even while he was eating. His elegant actions made him seem like a nobleman from a prestigious family.

The others had already finished eating, and Tristan was the only one that was still enjoying his meal.

They knew he had been tending to Sophie and did not have time to eat. Hence, they remained seated at the table and waited for him.

After dinner, everyone went home one by one when they noticed it was late.

Only Arius stayed behind.

“I'll head upstairs to rest. Call me if you need anything.” He did not want to remain as a third-wheeler in the dining room.

“Okay.”

Arius had been exhausted lately. Now that they finally got home, he had to get some sleep to replenish his energy.

After Arius retired to his room, Tristan and Sophie were the only ones left in the living room.

“Are you going to the university tomorrow?” Tristan asked. Can't she just stay at home and get some rest since we've just returned?

“There's a project waiting for me to complete at the University of Medicine. I need to go and have a look. Don't worry! I'm well aware of my own condition. I'll come home and rest if I can't take it,” Sophie said patiently. She knew Tristan was worried about her.

“Okay, then.”

Tristan leaned against the couch while Sophie rested her head on his shoulder.

“I'm being serious here. It hasn't been easy on you lately. If there isn't anything important at Lombard Group, you should stay home and rest.”

“Okay. I will!”

Victor came to visit the next day before Sophie could leave for the University of Medicine. He had not visited her when she was in Jetroina.

When he knew she had returned, he could no longer wait and hurried over to see her.

“Ms. Sophie, your leg...”

Sophie knew he was worried and immediately walked a few steps before him to show him that she was fine.

“Don't worry! I can walk like normal now. There's no problem.”

Victor felt relieved upon seeing how Sophie could move around without problem.

“Ms. Sophie, where are you going? Do you need me to send you there?” Victor offered.

“That's okay. Tristan will send me. You go to Tanner Group first. I'll head there after going to the University of Medicine.”

Recently, many occurrences unfolded at Tanner Group.

Since she was back, she would have to return to keep the situation under control so that those shareholders wouldn't give Victor a hard time.

“I have Tanner Group under control, so you don't need to worry. All you need to do is rest and get well soon.”

I can handle a few shareholders. Plus, Ms. Sophie transferred me five hundred million for the company's funds. No matter what those shareholders want, I can manage.

“Go ahead first. I'll make a trip there later in the afternoon.” After all, Tanner Group is important to Grandpa. How can I not go and take a look?

“All right!”

Those shareholders who sold their shares would regret it. Now that Ms. Sophie is back, Tanner Group will rise all the way to the top.

Tristan sent Sophie to the University of Medicine. Not many people were at the university since it was during semester break. However, Sophie spotted Sandra and Simon waiting for her from afar.
