Chapter 156 Hugging Her
As she never expected something like this to happen to them, Constance was trembling all over in anger as she shouted, “The Tanners are all sc*mbags, Mason! I can’t believe I treated Willow so well for five years, only to have her betray us like this!”
Mason, on the other hand, simply smiled upon hearing that.
He had long since known about Willow’s true nature. The only reason he let her have her way was that she had saved his life before.
“Now, now… Let it be, Mom. I don’t like her anyway, so it’s a good thing that she no longer wants to marry me. Better to see her for who she is now than after she marries into our family,” Mason replied calmly.
Had it not been for the car accident, he would have to deliberately go out of his way to make Willow see the truth and give up on him.
“Whatever. This is all the Tanner family’s fault, so you’d better stay away from them in the future! Don’t get yourself involved in their affairs ever again, you hear?”
Mason simply kept quiet as he knew he couldn’t forget about Sophie no matter what.
Feeling uneasy about his attitude toward the situation, Constance exclaimed worriedly, “It’s impossible between you and Sophie, Mason! Even if I don’t object to your relationship, the guy she’s dating will! Do you have any idea who he is? He’s Mr. Tristan!”
Just thinking of how she had offended Tristan earlier filled her heart with fear and anxiety.
“Stop worrying about me, Mom. Also, remember not to fall for Willow’s lies anymore.”
Josiah had already fallen asleep by the time Tristan and Sophie returned with the food they bought him.
“Just leave the food here, Ms. Sophie. I’ll take good care of things here, so you don’t have to worry at all,” said the butler respectfully. His attitude toward Sophie had changed significantly after seeing her enlist Arius’ help.
Sophie nodded as she set the lunchbox down on the table. Instead of leaving, she turned around and told Tristan, “You can head on home, Mr. Tristan. I’ll stay here and keep my grandpa company throughout the next few days.”
She wanted him to leave as she didn’t want to take up any more of his time.
“No, you should head home and get some rest. I promise I’ll stay here and look after him in person, so you have nothing to worry about!” Tristan replied.
He’s a very busy man, yet he’s willing to spend so much time on me…
“I want to keep Grandpa company,” Sophie said after giving it some thought.
“I’ll stay here with you, then.” Tristan wasn’t about to just leave her there all by herself.
“You don’t have to do this, Mr. Tristan. You’ve been here all day today, so you should go home and get some rest. I can look after my grandpa myself.”
Tristan grabbed her hand. “I don’t like hearing you say stuff like that. Your grandpa is my grandpa too, so I will stay here with you. Don’t worry. I won’t bother you.”
“That’s not what I meant. You’re a busy man, so I don’t want you delaying your work because of me.”
“It’s not an issue if it’s for you.” He was even willing to stay there with her forever as long as he could remain by her side.
Sophie didn’t know what else to say at that point.
She wasn’t expecting a person as busy as Tristan to set everything aside just so he could keep her company.
