“I will try my best,” replied the doctor. They had truly run out of options.

“I don’t care what you have to do. Please give us more time,” said Tristan to the doctors.

The doctors were aware that he was the one and only Mr. Tristan. How could they afford to be negligent and not follow orders?

“However, Old Mr. Tanner is only going to suffer if this continues.” If things were going to be like this, there was no point in keeping him alive.

This was quite torturous to the old man.

“You needn’t worry about all that. He has someone he still wants to see, after all. I only ask that you give me a bit more time,” replied Tristan.

Given how sensitive the situation was, Tristan could not just bring Sophie here.

“Yes, sir.”

The doctors left, and Morgan sighed.

“Where is Ms. Tanner?” murmured Morgan worriedly. He knew Sophie well enough. She was not the type of person who would ignore the fact that her grandfather was in critical condition.

Since she is not here, did something happen to her?

“Morgan, stop asking questions. I’m going to see Old Mr. Tanner, and I will bring Sophie back,” said Tristan tersely. Since Josiah could not be saved, all Tristan could do was fulfill the man’s dying wish.

Morgan grew even more anxious.

Since the situation was already so dire, there was nothing that could be done.

However, in the grand scheme of things, this was just the circle of life.

When Tristan entered the ward, Josiah could hear the door move. Josiah angled his gaze up to look for the source of the noise, but he seemed crestfallen when he saw that it wasn’t Sophie.

He had been holding on, hoping to see Sophie get married, but he never thought that this would happen.
