Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 167 Uncontrollable

the observation room and visitors were not allowed in. So, she went in alone.“Grandpa, I’ve done all that can be done. It all depends on you now. You’ve always been my hero so I am sure you can pull through. You won’t let me down, will you?”Her grandfather was a veteran. He had been through the war and was an indomitable hero. If it was not for that tiny bullet fragment, he would not leave his beloved job.After speaking a few words, Sophie came out of the observation room as she could not stay long.Yale saw her coming out. Immediately, he asked with concern, “Soph, how is your grandpa doing? After he was wheeled out, we asked many doctors, but they were not familiar with the case.”At that point, Yale’s attitude toward Sophie improved a lot.Realizing that Tristan was on her side, Yale did not dare to show any disrespect. After all, the Lombard family was very prominent in the city of Jipsdale.“The operation was a success, but we will only know the whole picture after Grandpa wakes up.” After all, he was advanced in age. Younger folks may take a few days to recover, but he would take longer.“The successful operation is a good thing,” Yale mumbled, almost to himself.Charmaine glanced at Yale in surprise. That was the first time he was so cordial to Sophie.“Okay, you’re tired. Go and rest.” Tristan did not want her to stay and talk for too long. The operation had already sapped too much of her energy.Sophie stopped talking and went off to the VIP ward nearby accompanied by Tristan.“Why are you so nice to Sophie today?

The entire Tanner family can only rely on her in the future.” Yale had not expected that after he spent so much time and effort on Willow, the boss turned out to be Sophie in the end.Charmaine frowned. “Why? I don’t understand.”“You don’t need to understand.” Who was Tristan after all? He did not even know if Tristan would mind others finding out about his relationship with Sophie.It did not matter what Tristan thought of Sophie, they could no longer ill treat Sophie.Even if Sophie was just a pet kept by Tristan, no one would dare to harm his pet.Furthermore, no one really knew what Sophie meant to Tristan.“What was that about? Can’t you tell me the truth?”We are one family, aren’t we? Why is it necessary to be so secretive and hide the truth?“Don’t question me. Just do as I say, that’s all.”Charmaine was rather upset. She was his wife, after all. Why does he always use the same reason to shut me up?Tristan led Sophie to the ward. He had to see her lie down with his own eyes.“Sleep well, so I won’t worry about you, okay? I shall go over to Grandpa now and watch him. There won’t be any problem.”“Mr. Tristan, I really appreciate this.”She felt at ease having him around.“You don’t have to mention that with me.”Tristan tucked her in, closed the door and left.Soon, she fell asleep and had
