Anything For Her

What the h*ll? How dare she address me by my full name like that? I’m her father, d*mn it! I’ll teach her insolent a*s a lesson!

“Looks like I’ll have to teach you some manners, Sophie. Can’t have you ruining the Tanner family name by going around causing trouble everywhere!” Yale shouted as he grabbed her arm and swung at her.

Josiah sat bolt upright and yelled sternly, “Stop it, Yale! How dare you hit Sophie in front of me? You’ve gone way too far!”

To their surprise, Sophie stopped the slap by grabbing his incoming hand by the wrist and flinging it aside with force.

Angered by her act of resistance, Yale said stubbornly as the frown on his face deepened, “I’ll have you know that I will never agree to this surgery, Sophie!”

Sophie’s gaze was as cold as ice as she replied, “And I’ll have you know that the surgery will be performed whether you agree to it or not. I will bear the consequences myself, so it has nothing to do with you.”

Seeing as she refused to back down, Yale raised his hand a second time.

This time, Tristan caught him by the arm before Sophie could even react.

“Who the heck are you? I’m disciplining my daughter here, so let go of me! This is none of your d*mned business!”

I’ve been through a really rough day at work. As if that isn’t bad enough, I now have to deal with my daughter’s insolence and a random stranger? Who is this guy? How dare he grab me like this?

“Who I am doesn’t matter. What matters is the fact that you’re messing with someone you can’t afford to.”

Tristan would never lay a finger on Sophie, so he wasn’t about to let someone slap her in front of him.

Not wanting to see them continue fighting, Josiah said, “Go home, Yale. My surgery is none of your business.”

“Dad! I know you’ve always let Sophie have her way and that you’ve always looked down on me. However, I’m truly doing this for your own good! Think about it, Dad! An old man like yourself undergoing surgery? How likely do you think you’re going to survive it?” Yale protested.
