“How’s your work at Central Hospital, Sophie? Can you make a trip home?” Ultimately, Tristan was afraid that Josiah wouldn’t be able to hold out for much longer.

Halting in her tracks, Sophie snapped her head back at him.

“What do you mean by that? Did something happen to my grandpa?” She eyed him in puzzlement, wondering whether something had happened.

The only person who came to mind was her grandfather, for she didn’t care a whit about anyone else.

Seeing that Tristan had said as much, Barney knew that the matter could no longer be kept under wraps.

Well, she would’ve learned about it sooner or later, and the truth is such right now.

“Make a trip home, Sophie! Anyway, everything has been resolved now. As for the slight side effects, leave them to me to figure out a solution.” She can rest easy with me here.

Tristan grasped Sophie’s hands.

“Remember this—I’ll always remain by your side no matter what happens, so don’t be too sad about things!”

In truth, Sophie had already braced herself from the very beginning.

Yet, she still panicked upon hearing that right then.

Everyone else didn’t try to dissuade her from leaving. All things considered, she had already done a great job, so there was nothing wrong with her going back to have a look at her grandfather.

Tristan brought Sophie to the hospital directly.

When they arrived at the entrance to the hospital, Sophie stood there for a long time, unable to bring herself to step in.

Finally, Tristan took her hand.

“Let’s go! Old Mr. Tanner has been yearning to see you.” Verily, he must be bone-tired after hanging in there for so long.

He led her into the hospital, to the room where Josiah was. Yale and the others had been keeping watch in there.

Of course, they weren’t there because of filial piety. Instead, they were merely worried that Josiah wouldn’t leave them anything if he were to die.

Therefore, they had been staying there all this time, hoping that the man would leave them some shares and not give everything to Sophie if for no other reason than them keeping him company.
