Anything For Her

Chapter 162 I Will Take Responsibility For Any Damages Incurred

for Sophie…” Constance stopped and softened her tone. “I was wrong for trying to split you and Mason up. I promise I will not stand in the way anymore if he recovers.” This was the first time Constance swallowed her pride in front of Sophie.Tristan was angered when he heard her proposal.What is she even thinking? Sophie and Mason? Over my dead body! He’s already out of the game a long, long time ago.“Mrs. Laird,” Sophie snapped. “Do you really think I like Mason all this while?”Constance suddenly felt the tables were not turning for good.“Sophie, I mean it when I say I’m sorry. Please, help me. Even if you no longer feel anything for him, you should still help him for old time’s sake.”“Are you serious?” Sophie scoffed in disbelief. “I never once liked him.”Sophie really did not admire him. It was true that she once thought Mason was a nice guy, but that perception was shattered when Mason betrayed her.“He’s not even worthy to be called my friend.” Sophie was not planning on being cruel, but Constance had really exasperated her, and she did not want to waste any more time on the matter.“Sophie Tanner!

Have you heard of that?” Tristan finally spoke. “Grandpa, I brought two bodyguards with me actually. Let me know if you need their help. I knew there would be pesty people here today.”“Well, I don’t mind using their help.” Josiah was glad to hear the suggestion. He had already had enough of a nuisance for the day and he needed some quiet.“You will not do that! You can’t do this—”“Madam.” Before Constance could retort further, two men came toward her and gestured at her to leave.She glared at the men and dared not move an inch.Seeing Sophie had no intention of interceding, Constance yelled at her.“Sophie Tanner! You can’t do this to me. You can’t do this to Mason!” The woman was distressed. She was unwilling to give up since she had done so much to find a cure for Mason, but the guards were equally adamant.Each of them grabbed one side of her shoulder and dragged her outside of the ward.Tristan followed after them to the door. “I don’t want
