Anything For Her

Chapter 994

Chapter 994 Hello Sister in Law

After the meal, Ross became noticeably happier. He had always appreciated talented people, so he really liked Sophie.

Through the meal, he gained a better understanding of what Sophie was actually like.

Despite being just a young girl in her twenties, she possessed such knowledge and insight. As such, Ross genuinely took a liking to her.

Sophie personally escorted him back.

“Don’t worry! I will give you an answer as soon as possible.” Sophie didn’t express it explicitly, but they both understood what she was saying.

“Well, there’s no rush. Look over it when you have the time.” He didn’t have high hopes, but since Sophie was willing, he wanted to ask her to try.

“I know.”

After the director went inside, Sophie returned to Caleb’s car.

“Soph, how are you so familiar with Mr. Campbell?” There were tons of people hoping to win the favor of someone as influential as Ross. Nevertheless, Ross, always an upright and honest individual, never paid heed to such flattery.

“We met at a summit before, replied Sophie casually. She was the kind of person who could easily attract the attention of powerful people.

During the summit, her theory had managed to win the director of the Institute of Physics over.

“You really know a lot of people. Indeed, you are a talented person.” As they hadn’t interacted much in the past, he didn’t know much about her.

Yet, after a mere meal together, he was already seeing her in a different light.

“Soph, I know Willow has done many things to hurt you in the past. However, we’re still a family no matter what. Can you give her a chance?”

Since Willow wanted to start anew, Sophie decided to give her an opportunity.

“How is she, Caleb? I’ve never been worried, and I’m also not a narrow-minded person.”

Everything was fine as long as Willow did not keep appearing in front of her. She honestly did not care about the path that Willow was going to embark on in the future.

At the same time, she wouldn’t be a hindrance to Willow either.

“I know you haven’t done anything wrong. I shouldn’t ask anything of you too.” Caleb knew she was never the one who had made the mistakes. “You are getting married to Tristan, right? Let us know what we can prepare for you!”

“You don’t need to prepare anything. I don’t need anything.”

Getting married was her and Tristan’s own affair. Furthermore, she could prepare anything she needed. herself.

“Can we attend the wedding, then?”

“Of course.” Asking to attend the wedding was far from a demanding request. There was no way she could refuse.

Caleb sent Sophie back.

When she returned home, she realized Tristan wasn’t there.

Even after she called him, no one answered the phone.

Not paying too much attention to it, she went to take a shower and change her clothes.

She noticed several missed calls from Tristan on her phone by the time she walked out of the bathroom. “Why aren’t you back yet? Did something happen?”

“It’s nothing. There’s been a business collaboration recently, so I’m having dinner with the partners. Don’t worry, I’ll be back later.”

“Okay. Did you drink? If you did, I can pick you up.” She had nothing else to do at the moment, anyway.

“Sure! If you don’t have anything to do, come and pick me up.” He had indeed drunk a bit. Although his driver was there with him, he’d rather Sophie pick him up.

“Okay, just send me the address and I’ll come pick you up.”

Sophie quickly changed her outfit and headed to the location Tristan had provided. As a fast driver, she arrived at her destination in less than twenty minutes.

Tristan welcomed her inside.

“Everyone, this is Sophie Tanner, my fiancée. We’ll be getting married soon. I hope you can join us for the wedding.” As those business partners often collaborated with Tristan, they were almost like friends. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

“I’ve heard rumors about Tristan having a gorgeous girlfriend. Seeing you today, I realized that your beauty surpasses that description!”

Even without any makeup, Sophie outshone all the other girls present, who were all dolled up prettily.

“Can I address you as my sister-in-law?”

“Hey! That’s not appropriate. How can you call her that?”

“Why not? Since Mr. Tristan’s our bro, Ms. Tanner’s our sister-in-law!”

The men were struck with awe when they saw Sophie.

However, since she was Tristan’s fiancée, nobody dared to overstep their boundaries.

“Mr. Tristan, let me raise a toast to you. Hope that you’ll have a blessed marriage!”

Tristan graciously accepted the toasts. Knowing that Sophie was there to escort him, he thought that sharing a few drinks with the rest wouldn’t hurt.

“Why don’t you join us for a drink? It’s no fun just watching us.”

“Sorry, but I don’t have a high tolerance for alcohol. I’ll pass on the drinking.” Although Sophie wasn’t fond of such social gatherings, she could adapt swiftly to such an environment.

“Could you be Ms. Tanner from Tanner Group?” Lately, Tanner Group had grown to become a force to be reckoned with in Jipsdale, threatening many stakeholders.

Even so, no one dared to do anything to Tanner Group. No matter how underhanded the methods might be, Tanner Group could always counter them.

“Yes. It’s my family’s company.” Sophie had no reason to hide that. Perhaps, there might be potential collaborators there.

“You’re amazing! How long has it been since you started leading Tanner Group? It has become an unstoppable force.”

“Mr. Tristan, where did you find yourself such a talented woman? Do you have any sisters, Ms. Tanner? Are they as impressive as you?”

“All right, now. I asked her to come today to tell all of you to treat her with respect when you meet her in business circumstances.”

“Mr. Tristan, what are you saying? She’s so capable! How would we dare to disrespect her? Both of you are the ones who shouldn’t be bullies. Spare us, okay?”

They did not even dare to think about how much potential the two powerhouses, Lombard Group and Tanner Group, would have in the future.

“I’ll stop chatting with you. My fiancée has been waiting for a while, so we’ll head back first. You all can continue enjoying yourselves!” Tristan grabbed his coat and stood up.

Sophie reached out to hold him.

“Everyone, apologies for leaving first. Tristan’s drunk.”

“No worries, go ahead. Have a safe journey!”

As they left, Tristan draped his arm around Sophie’s shoulder. He wasn’t actually drunk. Hoping to avoid wasting any more time in such a setting, he found an excuse to leave without offending the others.
