Anything For Her

Chapter 601

Yale naturally heard what she said. He came over, raised his hand and gave her a slap.

“You ungrateful brat! How dare you said those words when your grandfather is gone? Do you even have a

conscience?”

Everyone was heartbroken at the moment.

And she was the only one who still cared about these things.

She is really an ungrateful wretch.

Willow covered her face. There were still others at the scene. She couldn't believe that Yale slapped her in front of

them.

Willow valued her pride the most.

Now that she was slapped in public, tears immediately welled up in her eyes.

“You're all the same. Am I not a member of the Tanner family? Since I am nothing in your eyes, perhaps I should

leave.” With that, Willow ran off while weeping.

Seeing Willow's reaction, Charmaine wanted to chase after her out of worry. However, Yale grabbed her hand and

stopped her from pursuing Willow.

“What're you doing? There are so many guests here. Where are you going if not to greet them?”

“But I'm worried about Willow. She ran off just like that.”

“Nothing will happen to her. Can't you see that she's a selfish person? The only thing she cares about is herself.

Nothing will happen to a person like her.” Yale felt extremely disappointed whenever he thought of Willow's recent

behavior.

It is better not to have a daughter like her.

Charmaine had more to say, but she put up a pretense that nothing had happened upon noticing that the relatives

were approaching.

Sophie had been kneeling in the same spot for more than two hours. Tristan came over after he finished settling

the funeral arrangement and kneeled beside her.

He did not say much. He knew that at this moment, none of the comforting words could soothe Sophie. She just

needed someone to be by her side.

Felix shuttled in and out, busy helping with the funeral. Thus, the funeral went on smoothly with the help of Felix.

At night, Sophie insisted on staying for the vigil. This was the last and only chance she could be with her

grandfather, so no way she would give it up.

Seeing that, Tristan accompanied her through the night.

Sophie did not eat much during dinner. Tristan's heart clenched seeing Sophie like that.

Sean and the others were there too.

No one left.

However, Yale and Charmaine could no longer resist the sleeping spell and went back early to rest. In fact, Sophie

was the only sentimental person in the Tanner family.

Right then, Caleb also rushed back. Yale asked him to come back otherwise, he would not have known that his

grandfather had passed away.

Caleb could no longer hold back his tears and started weeping when he arrived at the mourning hall.

He left Chanaea as a teenager and didn't spend much time with his grandfather. He did not expect to come back to

see Josiah had passed on.

“Grandpa, I'm sorry that I'm late!” Caleb kneeled in the memorial room, tears trickling down his cheeks.

Sophie seemed unfazed by his arrival. She merely kneeled and continued chanting her prayer.

“Sophie, where are Dad and Mom?” After crying for a while, Caleb asked Sophie. Why is Sophie the only one here?

Where are Mom and Dad? Where is Willow?

“I don't know,” Sophie replied nonchalantly. Those people were none of her concerns.

Tanner's face darkened upon hearing that.

“Soph, we're family no matter what. Why are you behaving like this?” There was no need to be so aloof to one

another.

Although she is with Tristan right now, it doesn't mean that she should give her family a cold shoulder and let their

relationship deteriorate.

“Caleb, I think you'd better mind your own business! I'm not in the mood to talk to you about this right now.” Sophie

didn't think she was obliqued to explain anything to Caleb.

“Sophie, what kind of attitude is this? We're the only family you have now, you...”

Tristan shot him a threatening look, and Caleb immediately shut up. He didn't dare to voice out his thought in front

of Tristan.

“You'd better shut up. There's no place for you to tell her what to do,” Tristan commented coldly.

If they weren't her family, he would have lashed out a long time ago and wouldn't have waited until now.

Yet, they were unrepentant and kept pestering her.

Then, Sophie just ignored Caleb. They were at Josiah's funeral, she didn't want her grandfather to still get disturbed

in his last moment.

She wanted her grandfather to rest in peace.

It was already late autumn and the temperature dropped drastically at night. Sophie was dressed very lightly, so

Tristan asked someone to go back and fetch her a black coat and put it on her.

Sophie didn't want to talk. She appreciated Tristan's company a lot. The latter had always been by her side through

ups and downs.

“Tristan, it's so late now. Why don't you go back and rest? I'll stay here alone with Grandpa for one last night.”

She wouldn't have the privilege to accompany him anymore in the future.

“It's okay, I want to be here with Grandpa too. He's been so good to me. How can I not keep vigil at a time like!”

Caleb reached his limit after kneeling for more than an hour and went back to the Tanner residence.

Meanwhile, in the Tanner residence, Yale gave Caleb a big hug when he returned.

“You have come back at the right time. I know we shouldn't bring it up at this time, but since your grandfather has

passed away, we should fight for what we deserve. Tanner Group belongs to the Tanner family. We can't let Sophie

take over the company alone!”

No matter what, Sophie is going to marry someone else in the future.

Therefore, Sophie couldn't take over Tanner Group.

Caleb didn't expect his family would have their hearts set on Tanner Group soon after Josiah passed away.

“Dad, do you really think it's appropriate to bring up this matter right now?” Is money that important to you?

Charmaine glanced at Caleb.

“Silly child. You're the only one who thinks so. Sophie is thinking otherwise. She's insatiable and will never leave us in

peace!”

Charmaine was willing to say all kinds of things in order to get Tanner Group back.

“Besides, Tanner Group belongs to your grandfather. Now that your grandfather has passed away, the company

should be inherited by your father. Why is she taking command of the company?” For the sake of Tanner Group,

Charmaine knew she had to say these words.

No matter how nice she treated Sophie, the die was cast.

She couldn't erase those injuries she had inflicted upon Sophie. The latter would never forgive her and treated her

genuinely as her mother.

“Mom, forget it! Don't say these words anymore. I don't want Grandpa to turn in his grave. Everything should wait

until after the funeral!” Caleb did not want to say anything more and went upstairs straightaway. All he wanted now

was to get a good rest.

Josiah was going to be buried tomorrow.

Everything could wait until after the funeral.

Yale wanted to say something more, but Charmaine grabbed his hand.

“Forget it. Let him rest for a while! You know what he's like. He's not interested in the company at all. He's of no

help in these matters!”

“Dad, Mom, don't worry. I have a plan in mind. You just need to listen to me when the time comes.”
