Anything For Her

Chapter 441

Sophie fell silent. He's right. I have a lot of secrets, but he had never once asked about them. Instead, he would just observe in silence.

With that thought in her mind, her heart clenched.

“I'm sorry!” she said. Do I make people worry about me a lot?

“You've never wronged me, so don't apologize to me. I'm just glad I met you,” he replied. It's such a blessing to have met these members of The Wheelers. We're like-minded people. Few people in the world can experience this. I've at least done something I truly love for the past few years, and I've done a pretty good job to boot.

“Okay,” she responded.

“Don't let the others know about this first. I don't want them to worry about me.” Mark knew his departure was inevitable. He then added, “After I leave, see if you can find a new lead vocalist.”

What's going to happen to the other members of The Wheelers if the band is disbanded? All these years, they've been following him around. Once he leaves, what's going to become of the rest of them? Even at this moment, he's still thinking on behalf of others. I guess that's just how he is. Although he looks unapproachable, he cares a lot about those who are close to him. Sophie's heart was filled with bitterness when she heard Mark's words.

“I'm still here, am I not? Do you think I won't be able to solve that?” she uttered.

“Perhaps you should consider becoming the lead vocalist for The Wheelers. That would be the best outcome,” Mark uttered sincerely.

Regardless of her gender, Sophie was very passionate about rock music.

“Mark, you know how much I hate entering the entertainment industry!” Sophie liked her existing lifestyle a lot. She loved music, but she didn't want to make it her career.

“There's no hurry. After all, I'll still be around for the next twenty-odd days. Think about it, okay?” Mark didn't force her into making a decision right away.

With that, he said, “Okay, then. That's that. I need to go and rehearse now. I'm going to cherish our concert this time around because this is the first time the six of us are doing it together.” Mark had been looking forward to having all six of them performing together for a long time.

After Mark left, Sophie was rooted to the spot. Me? The lead vocalist of The Wheelers? Am I capable of that? I still have so many things to accomplish!

Meanwhile, Clayton was filled with anxiety because there was nothing he could do to overcome the situation he was in.

“Clayton, our current situation is terrible. If this carries on, we won't be able to have control over what happens during the shareholders' meeting!” Wilbur didn't want to say anything discouraging, but that was the truth.

Due to the situation they were in, they were at a disadvantage.

“I know!” Clayton didn't even have the energy to lose his temper anymore.

Naturally, he knew they were in hot water.

“You guys are all from prominent universities, aren't you? Can't any of you figure out a solution for the situation we're in?” Clayton spent a fortune to hire an enormous group of people. However, none of them could save him when he needed them the most.

Upon hearing that question, no one in the conference room dared to say a single word because none of them knew how to overcome the issue.

“Just leave.” Having already lashed out at them, Clayton just wanted to be alone so he could think.

His subordinates rushed out of there the moment they heard that.

In fact, Clayton had been terrifying the past few days, and no one dared to cross him because none of them wanted to end up being cannon fodder.

Even if they were to lose their jobs, they could always find a new one.

However, the same concept didn't apply to their precious lives.

Wilbur, however, stayed behind. I can't leave him alone!

“Clayton, don't worry too much about it. Since it has already happened, all we need to do now is look for a solution. No matter what, you're still Willow's fiancé. Perhaps you should look for Sophie,” Wilbur said. After all, she's the one who caused everything to happen.

Indeed, Sophie was their key to solving all the problems.

“Don't you think I know that? It's just that Sophie doesn't bother entertaining anyone! To make matters worse, she's not even on good terms with Willow,” Clayton replied.

“Their relationship doesn't matter. At the end of the day, they're still sisters. She can't possibly hang her own sister out to dry, can she? Why don't you just marry Willow?” Wilbur suggested.

“Marry Willow?”

The thought of Willow disgusted Clayton. That woman doesn't deserve me!

“Clayton, we just need to get past this hurdle. After this, you can have any woman you want!” Wilbur said.

“That's right!” Clayton answered. Let's just get through this first and deal with whatever is to come in the future later.

“Where's Willow? I haven't seen her over the last few days. Where did she go?” Clayton was weirded out. Willow was always pestering me, wasn't she? Why has she gone missing now that she's my fiancée?

“I'll look into it!” Wilbur answered instantly. He was willing to do whatever was necessary to solve the problems at hand. Although Clayton was hot-tempered, he was paying Wilbur very well.
