Anything For Her

Chapter 292 I Missed You After nodding in acknowledgment, Sophie proceeded upstairs. As it was Mark’s first time at the Tanner residence and he was a man of few words, he had trouble holding a conversation with the other members of the Tanner family. Hence, he ended up playing chess with Josiah, who was further impressed by Mark’s knowledge of chess. “Mark, how did you get to know Sophie?”

He had done some digging and found out that Mark was a huge celebrity. “When Sophie was in Horington, we formed a band together, and she was our drummer. Old Mr. Tanner, you probably haven’t seen her on the drums before, have you? Whenever she plays, it’s truly a sight to behold!” Josiah furrowed his brows. Since when does Sophie know how to play drums? Why haven’t I heard about it? Nevertheless, I shouldn’t be surprised, for she has excelled in all her endeavors. Due to the fact that it was Christmas, Charmaine and the housekeepers were busy cooking in the kitchen for the entire afternoon. When it was six, the Tanner family started their dinner.

He must have just finished his Christmas dinner too.” Sophie proceeded upstairs with her phone. Once in her room, she closed the door behind her and called Tristan back. “Hello, what’s up?” Sophie asked, holding her phone in one hand after taking off her shoes and laying down on the bed. “Nothing much, just missing you. What are you doing?” He was struck by the sudden urge to go see her. “Oh.” Sprawled in bed, Sophie wasn’t in the mood to talk. “What’s wrong?” he asked in concern, having noticed her reluctance to chat. “Nothing.
