Chapter 237 Capable Of Murder
“Keep dreaming.”
Yale did not expect that to happen.
“Let me tell you something, Sophie. There’s nothing I wouldn’t do when I’m backed up against the wall. To think that your grandfather loves you so. How could you—”
“How dare you?”
You were the one who kidnapped Grandpa!
Sophie no longer paid him any mind. Instead, she called Butterfly.
“What is it, Phantom?” Butterfly asked, concerned because she was usually the one to seek Phantom out. Could something have happened for Phantom to make contact this time?
“Locate my grandfather, and send a team to bring him back.” Sophie’s tone made it clear that her order was not to be questioned.
“All right.”
Whenever Sophie spoke in that tone, it was a sign she was trying her best to control her emotions.
Still feeling uneasy after hanging up, Sophie made another call to Tristan.
“What is it?” Tristan had been waiting for her call and, upon receiving it, thought the shareholders’ meeting had ended.
“I would like to ask for a favor, Mr. Tristan.” Though she wanted more than anything to search for Josiah herself, Sophie had promised the old man to assume the position of CEO, which was why she could not leave as she pleased.
“What is it?” Though her tone was no different than usual, he felt his heart ache upon hearing her voice.
“Yale took Grandpa away. Could you bring him back for me, please?” Sophie did not realize how much calmer she became after hearing Tristan’s voice.
“All right. I will get it done,” Tristan promised. “Don’t worry. I will personally carry this out and bring Old Mr. Tanner to you once the shareholder meeting ends.”
“Hmm.”
She might not believe anybody else, but she had complete faith in Tristan.
She knew he was capable and would get it done for her sake.
“All right, don’t fret about it. I’ll bring him back.”
After assuring her, Tristan hung up and got to his feet, with Felix following suit.
“Did something happen, Mr. Tristan?” Felix asked curiously.
“Yale is up to no good. He kidnapped Old Mr. Tanner.”
“What?” Felix was stunned. “That old fox, Yale, kidnapped his father to threaten his daughter? What has the world come to?”
“Enough. Have somebody find out Old Mr. Tanner’s current location.”
As he had already promised Sophie, he was going to bring Josiah back no matter the cost.
“All right. Rest assured, Mr. Tristan. I will keep you informed promptly.”
Having met much more formidable and complex adversaries than Yale, Felix was not concerned at all.
Tristan was still not assured. “Make haste. There cannot be any mistake. Understood?”
As long as it pertained to Sophie, I must do it well. I do not want anything to upset Sophie.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Tristan. What haven’t I encountered after all these years by your side?” Mr. Tristan was not even that nervous when Ysabelle was kidnapped!
Tristan gave Felix a look which the latter hastily took as his cue to leave.
“All right, understood. I’ll have somebody poke around.”
Tristan knew despite Yale’s deranged and reckless actions, he would not bring harm to his own father. The latter’s reason for doing so was to force Sophie to forfeit herself from the election.
Only by bringing Old Mr. Tanner home will I ease Sophie’s worries.
