Chapter 4 Ask For Help

“Sir, you’ve gotten the wrong person.” Sophie pulled her hand out of his grip.

Caleb frowned. Looks like she hasn’t forgiven us yet.

“Sophie, I know you hate us. We didn’t have another choice back then.” He tried hard to persuade her to change her mind.

“You didn’t have another choice? Ha! You did make your choice back then,” Sophie mocked.

“Sophie, Grandpa’s back. He wants to see you. Even if we were at fault, Grandpa is innocent. He isn’t doing well recently.” Caleb knew Josiah was the only one in the Tanner family that Sophie cared about.

“Got it. I’ll pay him a visit.”

As expected, Sophie caved in after he mentioned Josiah.

He told her, “Grandpa told me to give you a ride back home.”

“I can head there myself.” Sophie refused to waste more time with him.

Back in her house in Horington, Sophie switched on her laptop and typed a series of codes. After getting what she wanted, she sent them to the Public Integrity Section.

Percy Keyes, huh? This information is enough to send him to jail! He’s nothing but trash judging from his son’s actions.

She then began packing up her stuff.

After stepping out of the airport, Sophie took a taxi to the hotel she reserved earlier. She might’ve agreed to come back, but there was no way she would live in the Tanner residence.

At the hotel, she checked in and went to her room to take a shower. All freshened up, she hailed a taxi to the Tanner residence.

“Mom, did you say Sophie’s coming back?” Willow’s expression grew grim after she learned about Sophie’s return.

“Your grandpa told Caleb to bring her home.” Charmaine was seething, too.

“What does Grandpa want? After what Sophie did, people are still gossiping behind my back! Now that she’s back, people will start saying that the Tanner family’s daughters are…”
