Anything For Her

When Sophie heard that, she took the chart from Arius and scanned through it, and her face fell.

“Is it because of Mom and Willow?” Sophie figured those two were the only ones who could upset Josiah.

“Who else could it be? They really went overboard. Do you know what they told Old Mr. Tanner?” Morgan answered for Josiah. He could no longer keep it to himself after seeing how affected Josiah was because of the two women.

“Morgan,” Josiah interrupted. He did not want to burden Sophie with what happened.

“Grandpa, I know exactly why they came. Morgan doesn’t have to tell me anything.” Sophie could read Charmaine and Willow like open books. The shares she had was the thing they were after.

“Don’t worry, Grandpa. I made you a promise and I will see to it that it happens. As for Willow and Mom, you don’t have to worry about them. They can’t do anything to me.”

It pained Arius to see Sophie having to tank such a heavy burden on her own.

“Soph, you should just go to Anglandur with me. There’s nothing for you here.” Arius had an impulse to just take Sophie away with him to a faraway place so he could shelter her from all the harm and threats she faced.

When Josiah heard Arius’ suggestion, he looked up at the young man and fell into deep thoughts.

So he’s back because he wants to bring Sophie to Anglandur?

“Soph, you should just go if that’s what you want. You don’t have to worry about me.” Deep in his heart, Josiah knew Sophie was no ordinary kid. She was talented and she should chase after her dream.

Sophie clenched her fists at his words.

“Grandpa, this is not up for consideration. I will be taking my university entrance exam here.” She wanted to spend more time with Josiah because his days were numbered. As for her future, she still had a long way to go.

“Come over here,” Josiah said lovingly. He knew what was in her mind and he could not help but feel sorry for the child.

Sophie walked over and let the old man pat her on her head like an obedient child.
