Anything For Her

Chapter 157 Everything Is Ready

the past couple of days. Managing Lombard Group is already a tiring job, yet he’s always by my side.The moment Tristan opened his eyes, he saw her face close to his.He reached out his hands instinctively and hooked them around her neck, then drew her toward him and kissed her right on the lips.“You’re awake.”“Yes.”Sophie was still a little dazed after being kissed so suddenly, and Tristan could not resist pinching her face gently when he noticed it.“Do you have any idea how enticing you look right now? It’s enough to stir one’s desire to have their way with you,” he murmured.She’s simply too alluring!“I’ll go and check whether my grandfather is awake or not,” Sophie said quickly. I wonder whether he ate anything last night. Anyway, he must be hungry by now.Tristan could not help but laugh when he saw her scurry off.He then had his assistant buy breakfast from The Crown, and the latter brought back plenty of food. Since Josiah relished a lively atmosphere, everyone gathered in his ward to have breakfast with him.Just as they were eating, Arius arrived.“I can’t believe you didn’t invite me for breakfast.

However, it never crossed her mind that she would meet Sophie, who was wearing a surgical gown.“What are you doing here?” Constance asked darkly, her expression souring as soon as she saw Sophie.She harbored a deep dislike for Sophie and felt the latter’s appearance signaled misfortune for Mason.“Does that have anything to do with you?” Sophie answered bluntly. She had no wish to be polite to Constance.Constance fell silent at her words.If it were before, there was no way she would have backed down so easily after receiving such a retort.But now, she dared not say anything else because of Tristan.Meanwhile, Arius thought Sophie had sneaked away when he did not see her after changing into his surgical gown. Coming out to look for her, he spotted the woman who had bullied Sophie the other day.The second Arius saw Constance, his expression turned grim.Why does this woman keep showing up everywhere?“Why
