Anything For Her

Chapter 466

Sophie peeled an orange for Josiah. The oranges were ones that Tristan had specifically gotten from Archulea, and they were delicious.

“Have some oranges, Grandpa,” she offered.

He took the peeled orange from her.

It was cleanly peeled, and she had even gotten rid of the pith.

“Since I dare to send Clayton in, I'm not worried about the Zaleses coming for me. Just worry about your own health, Grandpa, and leave the rest to me.”

Josiah was getting old, and it wouldn't be good for him to work too hard.

“I heard that both your mother and Willow got injured. Let's go and visit them at the hospital,” he suggested. After all, they were still a part of the same family.

Even though they had brought it upon themselves, visiting them in the hospital was still the right thing to do.

“Okay,” Sophie agreed. She had no problem with what Josiah had to say.

Since he wanted to visit them, she would just go with him.

Sophie got the driver to get ready before heading to the hospital with Josiah.

Charmaine and Willow were both staying in the VIP wards.

Since both rooms were right next to each other, Josiah and Sophie decided to visit Charmaine first.

When Charmaine caught sight of Josiah, she began sobbing aggrievedly.

“I never thought this would happen, Dad. What do we do now? Everyone knows what's going on between Willow and Clayton. What is Willow going to do?”

It would be even harder for Willow to marry into a wealthy family from then on.

“Why don't you know how to repent even now, Charmaine? You never listened to what I said and always take things personally. Look at what you've done. Have you ever done a single right thing? What's the point of worrying now?”

“I'm really sorry, Dad. Please help Willow. She's still young. If this goes on, her life will be over.”

“As if it would be over. The Tanner family will continue to provide for her. As long as she focuses on her studies and marries a regular person, she'll be able to live peacefully. Isn't that good enough?”

Is it really necessary for her to climb the social ladder?

“Dad—” Charmaine clearly didn't approve, but she immediately shut up when she caught sight of Sophie's icy stare.

In her eyes, Sophie was an emotionless machine who did not care about her mother.

That was why she had never visited her in the hospital.

“Enough. Don't think too much about this. Just go with the flow.” Josiah had no intention of continuing the conversation. Either way, no matter what he said, she wouldn't listen. “Have a good rest. I'm going to visit Willow.”

In the end, she was still his granddaughter.

There was no way he wouldn't care about her.

When the door to the room was pushed open, Willow looked up in surprise.

Seeing that it was Josiah and Sophie, she didn't say anything. She didn't even greet Josiah.

Josiah shook his head when he saw the state that she was in.

“Stop thinking about what you want, Willow. School's starting soon. When it does, I want you to focus on your studies. No matter what, you're my granddaughter, so I'll carry out my responsibility to provide for you.”

The reason he refused to let her enter Tanner Group was that she just wasn't skilled enough, not because he was biased and didn't want to give her anything.

Willow finally came to her senses, but she didn't seem happy.

In fact, she didn't want to say a single word.

Her life was a disaster.

There wasn't a single thing that went well.

That being said, she didn't have the right to wish for anything.

“You're still young, Willa. You still have a lot of opportunities, so don't beat yourself up like that. It won't do you any good,” Josiah reassured. He couldn't bear to see her like that either.

“Can I talk to Sophie privately for a moment, Grandpa?” When Willow spoke, her tone was completely flat. There wasn't a trace of emotion in it.

Josiah couldn't help but frown.

Does she still not know how to repent?

“This has nothing to do with Sophie, Willa. What are you going to say to her?” He couldn't understand why Willow didn't try to solve the root of the problem within herself.

Willow smiled.

He's so biased. What can I even do in this state? I just want to say a few words to Sophie, but he's so concerned.

“Wait for me outside, Grandpa.” Sophie didn't want to put him in a difficult position, so she told him to leave for the time being.

“Soph, no matter what she says, don't get angry. For my sake, okay?” Even in his old age, there were so many things he had to worry about. He wondered what sins he had committed in his past life.

“Don't worry, Grandpa. I'm not that short-tempered.”

Josiah left, but he couldn't stop worrying about the two people inside the ward.

Sophie sat down on the couch at the side without a word.

Willow snorted. “You must be really satisfied, huh? Are you glad to see me like this?”

Sophie was speechless. Looks like she does have problems after all.

“Honestly speaking, Willow, I don't care about the state you're in because it has nothing to do with me. You were the one who always tried to compete with me from the start, but I never considered you my rival.”

“Because I wasn't worth it, right?”
