Needless to say, Sophie was well aware of Josiah’s tremendous pain at that instant.

However, she was hesitant to truly give up hope and grant him eternal peace.

Meanwhile, Josiah’s eyes had been darting over to the cabinet at the side. Noticing that, Sophie walked over and pulled it open, revealing a letter within.

She took the letter out.

It was from none other than her grandfather, addressed to her.

She opened it, but she then started weeping after reading it.

Hearing her sobs, Tristan entered the hospital room from outside. At the sight of her crying like a child, he strode over and wrapped an arm around her shoulder.

“Don’t cry anymore, Sophie. Old Mr. Tanner won’t want to see you in such sorrow, so hang in there!” Her tears felt like knives stabbing him in the heart.

Nonetheless, they had to face all that right then, for no one could change reality.

Even Barney couldn’t do anything about it, let alone others.

As Josiah witnessed Tristan’s tender care toward Sophie, a sense of peace enveloped him.

“Old Mr. Tanner merely wants to see you for the last time. I reckon he must be in terrible pain right now. As such, shall we grant him rest?”

Naturally, Sophie understood Tristan’s meaning.

Should I pull the plug and put an end to Grandpa’s suffering?

“I’ll do it.” Tristan didn’t want her to experience such a thing, so he volunteered to undertake the task in her stead.

Regretfully, Sophie shook her head.

She got to her feet and trained her eyes on Josiah.

“If there’s a next lifetime, I’ll definitely seek you out and be your granddaughter again. In the next lifetime, I’ll obey you so that you don’t have to worry about me,” Sophie vowed sorrowfully.
