Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 590

Meanwhile, Yale showed up at the hospital with Charmaine and Willow. They also brought along a lawyer who had prepared a will.

Tristan and his friends were at Anglandur, but Felix had assigned a team of bodyguards to guard the ward.

They might not be here, but there was no way they would leave Josiah at the hospital alone.

The leader frowned slightly when the Tanner family arrived.

He went straight to them and declared, “I'm sorry, but Mr. Tristan left orders before he departed that no one else is to enter the ward without his permission.”

“What are you talking about?” Yale burst out angrily. “My father is inside this ward, so there's nothing wrong about us visiting him! Tristan is the outsider here. Get out of my way!”

Hearing that, the leader of the bodyguards merely gave him an icy look. “Dare you say that to Mr. Tristan? If the answer is no, please leave now. Otherwise, don't blame us for taking action.”

The bodyguards Felix had sent were not ones to be underestimated, so it was impossible for the Tanners to get past them.

“My grandpa is inside. No one has the right to stop us from entering the ward!” Willow snapped. This was their last chance to regain their former glory, so they refused to give in easily.

Sophie would never give them another chance.

They had no idea where Sophie was, and Tristan was overseas, so even lady luck was on their side. It might be their only chance of succeeding.

The leader glanced at Willow.

“Just so you know, no one is allowed to enter the ward today!” he declared. They were loyal to Tristan and would carry out his orders obediently.

“Hey!” Willow was about to retort when Charmaine tugged at her arm.

“I know you're in a tight spot, but my father-in-law is sick. We just want to spend more time with him. Please let us in. It's not like we'll hurt him,” Charmaine pleaded softly. “Besides, Mr. Tristan told you to protect him. He didn't tell you to stop us from entering, did he?”

“I'm sorry, but Mr. Tristan was clear with his orders. You have ulterior motives, so none of you can head in.”

Charmaine had no idea Tristan would say that about them.

The lawyer spoke with the Tanners briefly before turning to the bodyguards.

“I'm their lawyer, and we have the right to enter this ward,” he said calmly. They have gone overboard!

The leader sneered, “Pulling rank won't work on us. Scram!”

Hearing the commotion outside, Morgan came out. He was the only one who had remained by Josiah's side all the while.

“Morgan! Tell them I just want to visit my father. Why can't I do so?” Yale called out as though he had found an anchor.

Morgan had worked for Josiah for a long time, so he could persuade the bodyguards to let them in.

Indeed, the leader's attitude turned respectful when Morgan came out.

“Old Mr. Tanner is unconscious, so there's nothing you can do even if you go in. You should leave,” Morgan said slowly.

He had been at the hospital for the past few days and never left. In truth, he was exhausted as he was no longer young.

Nevertheless, he couldn't leave as Josiah might be about to meet his end soon.

“Morgan, how could you say that? I might be an unfilial son, but how could I not stay by my father's side when he's on the brink of death?” Yale retorted unhappily.

“Mr. Yale, we're not fools. It's obvious why you brought the lawyer with you today,” Morgan responded.

He had worked for Josiah long enough to know what Yale was like.

“Don't worry. Old Mr. Tanner had prepared his will when he was clear-minded. He won't treat anyone unfairly,” he added.

Morgan felt bad for Josiah as his son was scheming against him even when he was about to die.

He was bitterly disappointed.

Yale's cheeks flushed red, for their actions had been exposed.

“Morgan, this is the Tanner family's business. As an outsider, you shouldn't be saying that!” Willow hissed. Yes, Morgan is just an outsider. He has no right to criticize me!

Willow had never liked Morgan, so she didn't bother holding back.

“Willow, how could you say that? Morgan—”

“Mom, he's just a servant! You showed him too much respect, so he ended up lacking any respect for us!”

The will shouldn't be his concern as it was the Tanner family's business.

Morgan's icy gaze swept over Willow.

“With that attitude of yours, you'll never be Ms. Sophie's match.” With that, he ignored them and returned to the ward.

Mr. Tristan's men are here, so no one—not even the king—can enter the ward, let alone them ordinary beings.
