Anything For Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 841

Chapter 841 Fearless

Joe was confident at the start. After all, these people had gone through rigorous training.

If not for these people, he would not be living such a comfortable life.

However, when he saw the guards falling one after another, he realized something was terribly amiss.

It seemed like he had crossed the wrong person that day.

Immediately, he ditched his men to flee.

He had supervised the construction of the palace, so he was familiar with the entire place. Immediately, he scurried into a spot full of hidden traps. That spot had been built exactly for a situation like this.

Once he was inside, he curled his lips into a smirk.

If they dared to enter the place, he was going to make sure that they were dead meat.

If they did not have the courage to enter, he would be able to avoid getting caught. Hence, Joe relaxed, and he even felt that he could have some red wine in the meantime.

On the other side, when Sophie saw Joe fleeing, she turned to the other two to say, “I'll leave this place to you. I'm going to head over to take a look instead.”

After taking down another guard, Tristan turned to see her about to run after Joe. Thus, he quickly muttered some instructions to Bertram before hurrying after Sophie.

He soon caught up with her.

“I'll come with you.”

How could he possibly let her go anywhere alone in this place?

Charles, who found out that Sophie and Tristan had gone after Joe, contacted them with the Bluetooth device.

“Don't go after him. He went inside a trap room!”

They did not know what kind of hidden mechanisms were inside, but they knew no one could come back out of the room alive.

Hence, Sophie halted in her tracks.

“What? This damn place has a trap room?” Sophie never expected a small terrorist organization to possess trap rooms.

“That's right. There's a trap room here. Don't underestimate it either. Many master fighters have died in there.”

Sophie glanced at Tristan.

“Are we going in?” she asked, curious to find out what was inside the legendary trap room.

“You decide,” Tristan told her. If she wanted to enter, he would follow her in.

Sophie was moved by his trust.

As she held his hand, an adventurous glint appeared in her eyes.

“I know you're not scared of this dumb trap room. Come on, let's head in and take a look at what's inside!”

Sophie was not going to leave the place without capturing Joe.

“Mr. Tristan, Sophie, you—”

Charles was speechless. Weren't they supposed to heed my commands? I don't want them entering the room.

“Don't worry, Charles. We'll come back out unscathed,” Sophie confidently reassured him.

The truth was, she had been researching various kinds of traps throughout the years.

Therefore, she was interested to see the trap room up close.

“Sophie, this is no time to be messing around. What if something happens to the two of you inside? What am I going to say to Old Mr. Lombard?” The very thought of the possibility made Charles shake in fear.

If he had known that things were going to turn out this way, he would not have come.

Furthermore, if he were Sean, he would have a way to stop the two.

“All right, cease your nonsense. What's scary about this?” With that, Sophie took off her Bluetooth earpiece. Since they were going to be entering the trap room, they could not afford to have any distractions.

“Mr. Tristan, you—”

Just as Charles was about to say something else, Tristan took off his earpiece as well.

Sophie and Tristan then headed inside.

However, Sophie was sorely disappointed the second she stepped into the room. Is that all? Did this really kill all those master fighters? Are they really master fighters in the first place?

Sophie figured out the flaws of the mechanisms with just one glance, and she soon disabled them all.

She had expected something far more dangerous than that.

“Mr. Tristan, I think it's boring. What do you think?” Even if Tristan had entered the room alone, he would have been able to disable them, let alone someone who had been researching hidden mechanisms like her.

Soon, they were at the last section.

Joe's face twisted with a grim expression as he saw the two of them making it through the final section unscathed.

“How did you get in here? How is this possible? No one has been able to survive until this part!” Let alone unharmed!

“Aren't you overestimating your traps a little too much? In fact, they can't even be considered traps,” Sophie pointed out, thinking that Joe had been living under a rock his whole life.

Unfortunately for Joe, he found himself trapped with no means of escape.

“What do you want?” Joe asked shakily. “If the people backing me find out that you laid a finger on me, they're not going to let you off easily. You better not do anything to me.”

He knew he was screwed.

He never thought those two could come after him even after fleeing into the trap room.

“This is your last chance to speak. Who's the one supporting you?” Sophie questioned.

Meanwhile, Tristan was quietly surveying the area. If any danger appeared, he would be able to protect Sophie.

Joe scrunched up his face.

“I can't believe you. You ruined everything for me, and now you expect me to give you information? Keep dreaming!”

Sophie drew her brows together.

“So you're not going to tell me anything.”

Why is he spending so much time spouting gibberish?

“What can you even do to me if I don't tell you anything?” Excuse me? I'm the leader of a terrorist group. Surrendering easily is not an option for me. I have my pride to uphold, and it's humiliating for a girl like you to corner me like this. Unfortunately, I have no choice in the matter. This is dreadful.

In the next second, Sophie took out the gun she kept by her waist and shot him where it would hurt most.

“Do you plan on confessing? Do you think I'm one of the good guys?” Sophie asked. During her time with Tristan, she genuinely wanted to be a righteous person and fight for the right side. However, these individuals were unreasonable. If she didn't reveal her true nature, they would continue to see her as a pushover.

“Argh!” Joe screamed.

It was just one shot, but he felt as if he had been tossed into hell and dragged back.

Sophie's proficiency in medicine gave her the ability to heal others, but it also granted her the means to inflict pain on them more easily.

“This really is your last chance.”

Joe hugged himself as he trembled from the terrifying thought of death.

“I'll say it! I'll say it! It's Jetroina's president. He made me do this, and he promised me five billion if I captured you!” Sure enough, Joe was only doing this for the money. After all, those who joined terrorist organizations were there for the money.

“I've told you everything, so let me go!” Joe screeched. He was frightened out of his wits by the young woman in front of him. Despite her young age, she was scarily ruthless.
