Anything For Her Chapter 149

Even though he hoped that he would be able to head there with her, he decided not to press on since

she said nothing.

Sophie knew that Tristan wanted to go with her, but Arius was no ordinary person. Without Arius’

permission, no one, including Sophie, could reveal his location to anyone else.

“Mr. Tristan, you can send her there.” Why let a young woman like her take a cab to who-knows-where
so late at night?

Tristan shot him a look in response. Do I look like I needed you to prompt me to do that? It’s only
because Sophie doesn’t want me to do it. That’s what I mind the most.

Right then, Ysabelle came out and saw Felix and her uncle.

“Are you all here to pick me up?” Clearly, Tristan was not. But where’s Sophie? Did they not come
across her?

“Send her home safely, and don’t let her linger around outside,” was all Tristan said to Felix before

getting into the car, ready to head to Wisteria Apartments and wait for Sophie there.

Ysabelle then turned to Felix and scoffed at the man. She did not forget that they were both giving each

other the cold shoulder. Moreover, she had tried to initiate reconciliation, but he ignored her completely.

“Ysabelle, I was the one who uploaded the video. Sorry.” Felix was overwhelmed with guilt. All he

wanted was to help her out, but his action ended up trapping her in a situation like this.

Ysabelle scoffed again.



“Oh,” she flatly said as if she was completely unfazed by the matter. “Is there something else you want

to talk about? If not, it’s time for me to head home. My dad has given me a curfew.”

Felix pursed his lips, feeling helpless. I think I’ve really made a mistake.

“Belle, I really didn’t mean to be so distant toward you. I just didn’t know how to face you.”

“Is that so? So, you know how to face me now?”

Felix was silent.

“If you don’t, you might as well just give up. It’s the best outcome for all of us.” Then, without giving him

a chance to respond, Ysabelle turned and got into the Lombard family’s car.

Felix remained rooted to his spot, thinking, Maybe I’m really in the wrong. Perhaps we’re not suitable
for each other. Relationships can’t be forced, and it’s time for me to sober up.

Meanwhile, Sophie had taken a cab to Cloud Nine Hotel, where Arius was waiting for her.

It only took Sophie a knock on the door before Arius opened it. He was wearing a white top with the two

top buttons undone and a pair of black slacks.

In those clothes, he looked like an intellectual, but there was also a tinge of slyness in his witty eyes.

“Dress yourself properly,” Sophie huffed.

“What’s wrong? I’ve already dressed decently, but you’re still unhappy with my attire? If not for you, I

wouldn’t have even worn a shirt. Moreover, don’t you know that many girls love the sight of my figure?

You’re full of complaints despite getting a free show. Don’t you think that you’re too much?”

Sophie was silent, pondering where he was getting his confidence from.



Dressed properly? You’re giving me the urge to wash my eyes with bleach.

A beat later, Arius had no choice but to button up his shirt.

“I’d say you must have really low self-esteem. You’re scared that you’d fall for my beauty, and that’s

why you’re so picky with my clothes.”

Sophie did not know how to reply to that. He’s so full of himself. I might as well let him wallow in his
self-delusion.

Arius then asked Sophie to take a seat on the couch before he filled a glass of warm water for her.

“Here’s the thing. The medical association is about to have a medical summit in a few days, so I have

to rush back to attend it. Therefore, I will have to perform your grandpa’s surgery before I go back. Is

that fine with you?” Arius said without beating around the bush, knowing that Sophie was a busy young

woman.

“Hm,” she hummed as she tapped the desk languidly.

Arius then sat down beside her and held her hand.

“You’d be at ease to hear that I’ll be the primary attending surgeon for the surgery, right?” Arius knew

how important Josiah was to Sophie, and that was why he had spent a long time preparing for the

surgery to the best of his ability. He was trying hard to minimize all the risks involved.

“It’s not that I’m worried about your skills.” After all, the one she was talking to was Arius Gullifer. How

could she possibly not have trust in his skills as a surgeon? However, it was surgery at the end of the

day, and surgery always came with risks.

“Trust me, Sophie. If I was able to pull you away from the hands of the grim reaper four years ago, I’d

be able to save the one that matters the most to you four years later too.”



Sophie could only incline her head in response.

“All right, make the arrangements for the surgery, and I’ll talk to my grandpa.” Frankly, if Josiah did not

undergo surgery, Sophie did not know how much longer he could hold out.

The surgery was mandatory, and Arius was the most suitable one to be Josiah’s primary attending

surgeon.

When Arius noticed the hesitant look on her face, he stood up and opened a bottle of red wine before

giving her a glass of it. Then, when she was not paying attention to him, he added a little drug to it.

“I don’t feel like drinking,” Sophie said, shaking her head when she saw the glass he was handing to

her.

“Just a little. This red wine is really smooth. I spent three million to get it. You’ve been too stressed out

lately, and drinking a little alcohol will be good for you.”

Sophie did not have her guard up around Arius at all; the only person she trusted most besides Josiah

was Arius.

Thus, she took the glass from him and drank every last bit of the red wine.

A few minutes later, she fell asleep on the couch.

“I’m sorry, Sophie. I didn’t want to do this to you, but I have to check you over.” If not for her

stubbornness, he would not have resorted to drugging her.

Arius then hunched over to lift Sophie from the couch and placed her on the bed before giving her a

checkup. After making sure that she was physically fine, Arius let out a sigh of relief and tucked her in.



“Good girl, rest well. I’ll help you protect the people you care about the most.” At the very least, he was

confident in his ability to do that.

That night, Sophie had a long, long dream.

Meanwhile, Tristan was getting more and more anxious as time ticked away.

Sophie had asked him to wait for her at Wisteria Apartments, and that was why he had chosen to do

nothing but trust her, believing that she would return.

However, as time passed, Tristan was getting increasingly doubtful about his choice. Why? Where did
she go? Did something happen to her?

Unable to hold himself back anymore, Tristan called her. However, no one picked up his call.

It was then that Tristan started panicking. He had never felt that kind of fear before.

In the end, he sent his men to track her whereabouts, not because he had no trust in her but because

he was worried about her.

Nevertheless, once he found out that she was in Cloud Nine Hotel’s presidential suite with an

unfamiliar man, Tristan’s expression darkened.

Instantly, he sped off to Cloud Nine Hotel. He could not stand the thought of her being with another

man, no matter who he was.

After getting down from the car, he went straight to the presidential suite and knocked on the door.

When Arius heard the sound, he opened the door, only to be greeted with the sight of the enraged

Tristan.

Arius frowned. Mr. Tristan? What’s he doing here?



“Mr. Tristan, how may I help you?” While Tristan did not know who Arius was, that did not mean Arius

was clueless about the former too.
