Anything For Her

Chapter 437

Chapter 437

Charmaine belatedly realized what she said, but it was too late to retract her words.

“Sophie, no matter what, we're still a family. I hope this matter isn't related to you,” Charmaine said in the end.

“Ha!” Sophie couldn't help but snort out loud. “I don't have a family like you.”

After all, Charmaine had never sided with her. Not even once.

How dare she suspect I did something to Willow?

With that said, Sophie cut the line instantly, not bothering to entertain the woman any longer.

No matter what she said, Charmaine still wouldn't trust her. Thus, it was pointless for her to try and change Charmaine's mind.

Seeing that, Tristan took her hand and pulled her into his arms. “What's the matter?”

“I'm fine,” came Sophie's answer. She wasn't about to let unimportant people affect her mood. That was absolutely unnecessary.

“You don't look like you're fine,” Tristan replied. She seems to be in a bad mood.

“Willow is missing, and my mom thinks I did it,” Sophie revealed nonchalantly. “Tell me. Am I that free?”

“Oh, I see.” Tristan snorted. Charmaine is indeed a loathsome woman.

“Since she's not important, don't be angry at her. It's not worth it. Go take a shower. I'll give you a massage later,” he urged.

She had rehearsed for a long time and should be exhausted.

Sophie snuggled into the couch and didn't feel like moving. “I don't feel like taking a shower!”

Tristan's heart skipped a beat when he saw how adorable she looked.

“Be good. Take a shower and go to bed. Just ignore those nobodies,” he comforted her.

Meeting his affectionate gaze, Sophie couldn't bring herself to say no. She climbed up from her spot on the couch and went to the bathroom to take a shower.


Meanwhile, Yale was gazing at Charmaine fervently. “What did she say? Has she seen Willow?” he demanded.

No matter what, Willow was now Clayton's fiancée, so nothing could happen to her.

Charmaine shook her head.

“Why did I give birth to such a daughter? She's so rude! Did you know she hung up on me?” she complained.

Charmaine was filled with regret. I shouldn't have given birth to her in the first place.

“I told you not to give birth to her, but you insisted. It's useless to regret now,” Yale snapped. All she does is make life difficult for us.

Charmaine was frustrated. “What should we do now?” she asked worriedly.

Willow went missing all of a sudden, so they couldn't just act as if nothing had happened.

Something might happen to her out there.

“Should we call Clayton? After all, Willow is his fiancée, so he wouldn't ignore our plight,” Yale declared. Subsequently, he whipped his phone out to give Clayton a call.

However, the call did not get through.

“This is impossible. Why can't the call get through?” Yale blurted out in disbelief. “What's going on?”

He was utterly confused.

Hearing that, Charmaine demanded, “What? What happened?”

“I can't get through. Okay, that's enough. Stop worrying. It has been less than twenty-four hours since she went missing, so the police won't help even if we were to make a police report. Go to bed, and we'll see what happens tomorrow.”

He could head to Zales Corporation and ask for Clayton's help if nothing else worked.

The next day, Willow still didn't show up.

Yale went straight to Zales Corporation, but the security guard refused to allow him entry.

“What are you doing? Didn't you read the news? I'm your CEO's father-in-law. I have some urgent matters that I need to talk to him about. Let me in now! Otherwise, you'll be punished for delaying my matter!” Yale behaved unreasonably.

I'm an influential person now. How dare they treat me this way?

“I'm sorry, but our CEO is very busy. He doesn't have time to entertain random people,” the security guard responded curtly.

“You!” Yale fumed. He had never been humiliated this way.

“You should leave as soon as possible. We have no choice but to call the police if you continue to act unreasonably,” the security guard warned.

Right then, Clayton strode out of the company.

Seeing him, Yale yelled, “Mr. Zales, I'm Yale Tanner, Willow's father! Willow is in trouble!”

Clayton heard the older man's voice and turned around to see Willow's father.

He approached Yale and said, “What is going on? Yale, what do you want? You're not allowed to cause a commotion at Zales Corporation.”

How could he cause a ruckus here and affect our operation?

As Clayton didn't bother showing Yale any respect, the latter was displeased.

I'm his father-in-law. How could he treat me rudely?

“Clayton, I seriously need your help. Do you think I like coming to your company?” he hissed furiously.
