Anything For Her

You Are Still Quite Young

Charmaine was pissed off by Sophie’s attitude. No matter how hard she tried to start an argument. Sophie would

just ignore her.

To Charmaine, it was the most infuriating part.

At that moment, Caleb came downstairs in casual clothes. Having recently endured a lot of beatings, he was unsure

where his future path would lead him.

“Are you just going to wear this?” Sophie asked.

“Why? Are my clothes inappropriate?” Since Caleb didn’t know where Sophie was going to take him, he just put on

something casual.

“This is fine. Let’s go! It’s almost time.”

Sophie had agreed to a meeting at the Institute of Physics. Although the person meeting them wouldn’t mind if they

were late, it wasn’t polite to have other people waiting for too long.

After all, she was a punctual person.

“Where are you going?” Charmaine asked disapprovingly. “Be careful. We don’t want you to be shipped off and

sold.

“Have you forgotten what I said, Mom? We’re family. Why are you speaking like this?” Caleb said exasperatedly.

Some prejudices could be deeply ingrained, and there is no way to change them.

“Am I not speaking the truth? Do you think-”

“Let’s go, Caleb!” Sophie ignored Charmaine’s taunts. For all she cared, Charmaine was entitled to have her own

opinion, and it would be none of her business.

Sophie didn’t need to waste too much time on someone unrelated to her.

“Okay. Let’s go!”

Charmaine became even more furious when Sophie and Caleb ignored her and left.

“Mom, don’t be like this. It’s not worth getting angry over this. Besides, you know how capable Sophie is. Since

they’re now on good terms, she may be able to help him!”

As Willow spoke, her eyes were filled with jealousy.

Back then, she had been Caleb’s favorite person in the world. However, he only had eyes for Sophie now!

Everyone in the household only cared about Sophie. Nobody cared about how much Willow had suffered.

“So what if she’s capable? That doesn’t mean she will help Caleb! Caleb is a fool. He won’t even realize it if she

betrays him,” Charmaine said.

“Don’t be so negative, Mom. You still have me. I’ll stand by you firmly no matter what happens.” Willow immediately

pledged her loyalty.

Charmaine shook her head and sighed.

“If things are still the same as before, I can still pin my hopes on you. But your reputation now…” Charmaine had a

feeling that no prestigious family would accept a daughter-in-law like Willow.

Willow wrapped her arms around Charmaine’s arm.

“Are you giving up on me too, Mom? If even you give up on me, I’ll have no future!” Willow’s eyes reddened.

She didn’t want to lead a life like that.

“Listen to me, Willa. Find an ordinary man to marry. Perhaps you will be happiest that way. There is actually a great

deal of unhappiness in marriages to rich families. It’s just that they’re well hidden.”

“An ordinary man?” Willow knew that she would never be satisfied if she only married an ordinary man.

Sophie got into the driver’s seat while Caleb got into the passenger seat.

It was the first time he had seen Sophie driving. The car was a birthday gift from Tristan, but she rarely drove it.

“When did you buy a car, Soph?” Caleb knew she could afford the car now that she had taken over Tanner Group,

but he had never seen it before.

“This car was a gift from Tristan.”

“I see. Mr. Tristan is really nice to you. I’m relieved to see how happy you are now. I’m sorry for neglecting you in

the past, Soph. Fortunately, you’ve grown up well on your own.”

When Caleb thought about what Sophie had experienced in the past, he felt a deep sense of guilt.

He had been so focused on entering the research institute in Anglandur that he didn’t bother to pay attention to her

at all. She must have felt so desperate back then!

“I’m doing pretty well now, Caleb,” Sophie murmured.

Let bygones be bygones, What ill intentions can Caleb have? He was just unaware of the situation. Besides, Willow

acted like a spoiled brat all the time.

“But don’t you think it’s a bit too rushed for you to marry Mr. Tristan this year? You are still quite young.

Sophie was only twenty years old.

“It’s hardly rushed. Tristan is eager to marry me, and I have made up my mind that he’s the one. Since we’re

certain that we want to marry each other, the timing of the wedding doesn’t matter.”

Marriage was indeed still early for Sophie, but Tristan was already at a suitable age to get married. Sing she loved

him, she wanted to give him a sense of stability.

The conversation ceased as Sophie drove because neither she nor Caleb was talkative to begin with.

It wasn’t until they arrived at their destination that Caleb noticed something was amiss.

Staring at Sophie in surprise, he asked, “Why did you bring me here, Soph? Not everyone can enter this place.”

Moreover, he still didn’t have the qualifications to enter the institute. Although he had stayed at the Institute of

Physics in Anglandur for years, his success wasn’t recognized here.

“Let’s go, Caleb. I’m bringing you to meet someone. Whether you get to stay here or not depends on your abilities.”

“But I didn’t bring any document.”

He was also in casual attire, which made him look unprofessional.

“It’s fine. Let’s go! It’s about time.”

Sophie backed the car into a parking spot and got out of the car. It took Caleb a while to react, but he followed suit.

However, he still wasn’t clear about who they were going to meet that day.

When Sophie and Caleb reached the entrance, they were stopped by a security guard.

“Hello, I’m Sophie Tanner. Please contact the director.

The security guard immediately called the director. After receiving the phone call, the director went down to

welcome Sophie personally.

The director was a middle-aged man in his forties. He exuded an air of elegance and friendliness.

“Hello, Ms. Tanner. I have been waiting for you since this morning! Let’s have a chat in my office.”

Although Caleb had never seen the director in person before, he had seen his picture.

He had never expected that Sophie would bring him to meet the director of the Institute of Physics. The director,

who was rumored to be aloof, was so enthusiastic toward Sophie.

“Hello.”

After Sophie greeted the director, they walked inside together, leaving Caleb who was still standing in the. same

spot.

He had always thought that he had no more chance with the Institute of Physics in his lifetime, but little did he

expect to actually get inside that day.

Seeing that Caleb didn’t follow, Sophie paused in her tracks.

“Caleb!” Sophie called out to Caleb, who was still standing at the same spot.

It was then Caleb recovered from his daze. Still excited, he concealed his feelings and followed them.
