Anything For Her

Chapter 164 Take Him Away

welcome here,” Sophie snapped.Her father was obviously here with an ulterior motive.“Sophie? What do you want? Why won’t you let me see your grandpa? You want to keep all the Tanner family’s assets for yourself, right? My god, our family is unlucky enough to have someone like you!” he complained.Sophie was speechless. Indeed, no one but Yale wanted Tanner Group, for it wasn’t even worth that much.“You may leave now.” There was no need for Yale to come here if all he wanted was the company, for Sophie didn’t want to waste time with him.“What do you mean by I may leave now? I demand an answer! Why would I leave? I will allow Dad to go for surgery, but first, he has to decide the heir of Tanner Group. If anything happens to Dad during the surgery—”“Shut up!” Sophie’s voice was so vicious that she sounded like Hades in person. “Ever since Grandpa decided on the surgery, have you ever said anything nice? Yale, you are nothing but a beast!”If Yale hadn’t gone overboard today, Sophie would not have flown into a fit of rage.Each and every word he uttered proved he wanted nothing more than Josiah to die on the operating table.Yale’s expression was grim after getting yelled at by his daughter in public. However, he refused to leave.“I’m not cursing Dad. Someone is greedy enough to help outsiders get our money. I have to put my guard up,” he argued and shot Tristan a pointed look.Arius let out an angry snort. Never in his life had he seen someone like Sophie’s father. Is he even her biological father? How could he be this ridiculous?“Do you know who he is? Your family’s wealth is nothing to him. Stop humiliating yourself, Yale!”Yale remained stubborn. “I don’t know who he is, and I don’t wish to know. All I want is to guard Dad’s wealth.”“Mr. Tristan, tell him to leave.” Sophie didn’t think it was necessary for them to continue the conversation, for no one would share her father’s sentiments.“Wait!” Yale refused to give up just yet. “Sophie, Tanner Group is mine. No one can get it from me!” he announced.Tristan made a phone call. Soon, Felix arrived with a bunch of men.Yale gaped in disbelief when he saw Felix.Tristan was a stranger to him, but he had met Felix once previously. He couldn’t hide his shock when Felix showed up.“Mr. Northley? Why are you here?” he blurted out.Felix shot him a look.“Mr. Tristan, the men are here.” Ignoring Yale, Felix strode over to Tristan.“Mr. Tristan?” Comprehension dawned on Yale. So this young man who Dad calls “Tanny” is the infamous Mr. Tristan?“Soph, is he really Mr. Tristan?” Yale still refused to believe his ears and eyes.“Take him away. Release him only after Old Mr. Tanner recovers from his surgery,” Tristan ordered.“Got it, Mr. Tristan,” Felix replied politely.Yale panicked at once.“Mr. Tristan, I was wrong. I didn’t know it was you. I wouldn’t have said those words if I do. Please forgive me!” he pleaded.His legs were trembling in fear.Everyone knew that Tristan was a formidable presence in Jipsdale that no one should cross, for he was capable of deciding anyone’s fate.Alas, Felix’s man didn’t give him a chance to even speak.“Mr. Tanner, please don’t make things difficult for us as you’re Ms. Tanner’s father.” If they were to take action without sparing his reputation, Sophie would be affected as well.“Just take him away,” Sophie ordered. She wouldn’t let anyone affect Josiah’s mood before his surgery.He should be grateful that they were only locking him up elsewhere without harming him.“Soph, I’m your dad! How could you do this to me? Where are they taking me? You can’t do this to me!” Yale yelled.His voice was so loud that Sophie’s expression turned dark.“Grandpa is asleep. He said he didn’t want to see you. If he wishes to see you after his surgery, I’ll bring you to him,” came Sophie’s icy reply.“Soph—”“Take him away!” Sophie no longer wanted to hear his voice. Sometimes, she couldn’t help but wonder if Yale was truly her father, for he was nothing but a coward.After Yale was taken
