Pursuing Her

Chapter 153 Constance Insults Sophie

“All the preparations are complete, Old Mr. Tanner. Don’t you worry!” said the director as he personally escorted Josiah to the VIP ward.

Josiah simply chuckled in response as he knew he had nothing to worry about.

Tristan helped him get seated after the director left, and Sophie came over with Arius shortly after.

“Hello, Old Mr. Tanner. I’m Sophie’s senior. My name is Arius Gullifer,” Arius greeted him with a friendly and easy-going smile.

“Her senior, huh? Sophie, why didn’t you tell me about having a senior like him? What happened in Horington?”

Sophie shot Arius a glare. D*mn it! Why would he bring up the one thing I dread talking about the most? What happened in Horington is in the past, so I don’t want Grandpa to know about it! Besides, him finding out now won’t change a thing anyway. If anything, it’ll only make him worry even more!

“Relax, Grandpa! I didn’t do anything wrong!”

Josiah fell silent. But… I didn’t say she did anything wrong…

“Anyway, Arius is the doctor I found for you.”

Josiah started freaking out when he heard that the young doctor in front of him was named Arius.

Arius is a legend in the medical field! He’s the pride of Chanaea!

“You can just call him Ari, Grandpa.” Sophie wasn’t planning on introducing him at first, but she did so because she knew what Josiah was worried about.

Besides, Arius’ reputation could really come in handy.
