Anything For Her

Chapter 162 I Will Take Responsibility For Any Damages Incurred

Constance seemed to be very proud of herself when she mentioned the engagement.

She thought there was no way Josiah would turn her down now that she brought the engagement up, but the old man’s face fell sunken the moment he heard that.

Mason and Willow were indeed engaged.

“Old Mr. Tanner, Mason is part of your family too. Why don’t you just help him out a little? You know how Willow is crazy about him, right? She must be heartbroken now that Mason is in this state.”

Josiah still did not understand what was she trying to get at. Well, what happened to Mason is not our fault. Besides, it’s not like we’re able to do anything for him.

“Mrs. Laird, I really don’t understand what you are trying to say, but no matter what it is you would like to convey, I don’t have the solutions you’re looking for, so please leave.”

“You can’t help me, but your granddaughter can. She’s good friends with Dr. Gullifer. He will definitely help Mason if she asks him to.”

Constance looked at her in anticipation, hoping Sophie would crack under the pressure of Josiah’s presence.

The old man finally understood why Constance came to visit.

“Grandpa, you should get some rest already.” Sophie finally broke the silence. “You’ve heard enough nonsense.”

“All right.” Josiah played along readily. Constance had always been rude to Sophie, and Josiah took it to heart, so it was obvious to the old man that Sophie would not grant Constance the favor. She must really think we owe her.

“I’m sorry, Mrs. Laird. As you can see, I’m not feeling very good myself. I really need to be well-rested for the surgery tomorrow. Please make a move if you have nothing else to say.”

“Hey—” Constance finally lost it. “Do you not understand what I said? The Tanners used to suck up to us to get all kinds of benefits. Don’t tell me you’re turning your back on us now that things are not looking good for us. You should know better.” Constance lashed out at Josiah without holding back, forgetting that she was there to plead her case.
