Pursuing Her

Chapter 585

Tristan's expression changed after hearing what Felix had to say.

Frankly, Tristan had never been this afraid before. The incident seemed to lead back to those men from Anglandur.

Now that Sophie was involved, it was going to be dangerous for her too.

“I'm going to take a look!” Tristan did not care about anything else now. All he wanted was to be by her side.

Regardless of what happened, nothing mattered as long as they were together.

However, Felix held Tristan back.

“Mr. Tristan, you shouldn't be hasty. I don't think the matter is that simple. Central Hospital is now under lockdown. Nobody is allowed to enter or leave.”

Even if Tristan went there now, he was not going to be of help.

In fact, he was only going to be endangering himself.

“No! I have to get Sophie back!” At the moment, there was nothing else on Tristan's mind but Sophie.

Arius being there is enough. After all, Sophie is just a first-year student. What can she do? How could he enlist Sophie's help in something so dangerous?

After this ordeal was over, Tristan was determined to teach Arius a lesson.

“Mr. Tristan, there's no way you can enter right now. Even if you do manage somehow, Sophie may not come with you!” said Felix hurriedly.

After all, Felix had known Sophie for quite some time. As such, he was rather familiar with her personality.

Sophie seemed stoic on the outside, but she was generally a very principled person. Otherwise, she would not have studied medicine.

Tristan, however, was getting quite anxious.

“I need eyes on the situation at all times,” said Tristan. He did not know what he was going to do if something happened to Sophie.

Suddenly, a phone call from Yale interrupted their conversation.


When Tristan noticed the caller ID, he did not wish to answer the phone. However, he relented when he thought of Josiah.

“Mr. Tristan, have you been able to get a hold of Sophie? I fear that Old Mr. Tanner can't hold on for much longer,” whispered Yale. Sobbing sounds could be heard from where Yale was.

When Tristan heard this, he could feel panic flood his heart.

What?

Why does it have to be now, of all times?

“Where are you now? I'll rush over right away,” replied Tristan. With Sophie unavailable, he was the only person left who could deal with this.

Immediately, Tristan got up and grabbed his coat.

“Mr. Tristan, where are you going? Has something happened?” asked Felix, getting up as well.

“Something has happened to Old Mr. Tanner.”

This time, it was Felix's turn to be anxious.

Why did this have to happen now? When it rains, it really does pour.

Sophie is still busy at Central Hospital. If anything were to happen to Old Mr. Tanner, how is she going to react when she is finally able to leave?

Tristan immediately drove to the hospital Yale mentioned at top speed. Yale was already waiting outside. When he saw that Tristan had arrived without Sophie, he couldn't help but ask, “Where's Sophie? What the hell is she so busy with? Her grandfather isn't doing too well right now. How could she be absent at such a critical period?”

All Josiah wanted was to see Sophie one last time.

If Sophie did not show up, they feared he would not have the opportunity to meet his granddaughter again.

Tristan ignored the outburst. Instead, he walked inside on his own. When Morgan noticed him, he said, “Mr. Tristan, where is Ms. Tanner? I think Old Mr. Tanner isn't going to make it. All he wants is to meet her one last time!”

“Are the doctors in?” asked Tristan, not mincing words.

“The doctors are inside, but I don't think there's anything much they can do now.” After all, Josiah was very old. There was nothing one could do to change that fact.

That being said, they could at least fulfill his dying wish!

“Unfortunately, Sophie has urgent matters to attend to and cannot leave,” replied Tristan with some difficulty. He knew just how much Sophie loved her grandfather.

If she knew this was happening, she was definitely going to drop everything and rush over.

However, she could not even leave.

“Is that so?”

Morgan said nothing else. Given how dire the situation was, there was nothing anyone could do at this point.

Willow could not help but glance over when she heard what Tristan said.

“Grandpa has always treated her well, but now that he isn't doing so good, she can't even show her face?” said Willow coldly. She then looked at her parents and added, “Do you think she'll still give a damn about us after Grandpa is gone?”

Willow did not particularly care about Josiah dying. Instead, all she hoped was that Sophie would leave Tanner Group.

“How could you say such things at a time like this, Willow? What matters now is your Grandpa,” chided Yale. He did not wish to hear such things now.

When it came down to it, the person on his deathbed right now was still Yale's father.

Hence, Yale was not in the mood to hear something so outrageous coming from Willow's lips.

“Dad, I'm upset too! But you can't keep behaving this way. If you don't wrest control of Tanner Group now, then we'll be left with nothing!” said Willow indignantly. “Sophie is a heartless person! She doesn't care if anyone else lives or dies!”
