Pursuing Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 167

Chapter 167 Uncontrollable

In twenty seconds, Sophie removed the bullet fragment deftly and without mistakes.

After the removal of the bullet fragment, follow-up work was just the usual routine.

When the operation was over, Josiah was pushed into the observation room.

Sophie and Arius went to shower and change. However, Sophie found herself leaning against the wall, her hand trembling uncontrollably.

Sophie bit her lip as she watched her trembling hand.

Tristan had already showered and changed and was waiting outside for her.

The moment he set eyes on her, Tristan noticed that something was not right, and he held her hand.

“It’s okay, now. You did a great job,” Tristan said, consoling her.

Sophie leaned gently on his body and slowly closed her eyes.

Performing such a delicate operation was exhausting both mentally and physically, and she was totally drained now.

“It’s okay, now. You did well. Now, go and get some rest.” Seeing her in this condition, his heart ached for her. On the operating table, Sophie’s skill was so extraordinary that no one could take their eyes off her but she was his woman and he wished that there would be less pressure on her.

Some might judge him for being selfish but all he wanted was for her not to be so exhausted.

“I’ll go and see Grandpa first.” No matter how tired she was, she wanted to see her grandfather before going back to rest. The operation was done but recovery would depend on close observation and aftercare.

“Okay, I’ll accompany you to see Old Mr. Tanner first. After seeing him, you can go back to rest. I’ll stay there and everything will be fine.” He could take over her place to watch over him.

Sophie did not protest as she really needed to rest for a while. Besides, Josiah would take several hours before waking up.

Josiah had been wheeled into the observation room and visitors were not allowed in. So, she went in alone.

“Grandpa, I’ve done all that can be done. It all depends on you now. You’ve always been my hero so I am sure you can pull through. You won’t let me down, will you?”

Her grandfather was a veteran. He had been through the war and was an indomitable hero. If it was not for that tiny bullet fragment, he would not leave his beloved job.

After speaking a few words, Sophie came out of the observation room as she could not stay long.

Yale saw her coming out. Immediately, he asked with concern, “Soph, how is your grandpa doing? After he was wheeled out, we asked many doctors, but they were not familiar with the case.”

At that point, Yale’s attitude toward Sophie improved a lot.

Realizing that Tristan was on her side, Yale did not dare to show any disrespect. After all, the Lombard family was very prominent in the city of Jipsdale.

“The operation was a success, but we will only know the whole picture after Grandpa wakes up.” After all, he was advanced in age. Younger folks may take a few days to recover, but he would take longer.

“The successful operation is a good thing,” Yale mumbled, almost to himself.

Charmaine glanced at Yale in surprise. That was the first time he was so cordial to Sophie.

“Okay, you’re tired. Go and rest.” Tristan did not want her to stay and talk for too long. The operation had already sapped too much of her energy.

Sophie stopped talking and went off to the VIP ward nearby accompanied by Tristan.

“Why are you so nice to Sophie today? Is there something I do not know?”

She did not understand the present situation at all. What is going on? She did not like that feeling at all as she liked to be in control of every situation.

“Have a better attitude towards Sophie in the future. The entire Tanner family can only rely on her in the future.” Yale had not expected that after he spent so much time and effort on Willow, the boss turned out to be Sophie in the end.

Charmaine frowned. “Why? I don’t understand.”
