Anything For Her

Chapter 1002

Chapter 1002 Kneel and Apologize

However, just as those mighty men reached Sophie, Sophie made her move. She was swift, and in less than five minutes, she had downed them all.

Howard’s expression darkened. Those men he brought that day were all capable fighters because he was always stirring up trouble.

Yet, they could not hold their ground against Sophic.

Even his female companion was frightened. She could not wrap her head around why things had turned out this way. Moreover, she had uttered many humiliating insults earlier, and she was afraid that the other woman would punch her in retaliation.

Howard gulped.

Carl was equally dumbfounded.

Is Ms. Sophie that impressive? So I’m the one making a fool of myself. I can’t believe I was thinking of protecting Ms. Sophie earlier too! What in the world was I thinking about?

Howard’s female companion no longer dared to stick around at that point.

“Mr. Lynder, I suddenly remembered I have something to do, so I’m going to take my leave first.” The woman then scurried away.

Howard wanted to escape, too, but right as he was about to discreetly move backward, Sophie stepped over to his front.

Howard turned red in the face.

“Ms. Tanner, what are you doing? We bear no grudges against each other. There must be a misunderstanding!”

“A misunderstanding? Howard, I’m giving you one last chance. Why did you kidnap Victor White?”

Howard was quiet for a moment.

So she’s here because of Victor.

“What are you talking about? I have no idea what you’re saying! I really don’t! Did something happen to Victor?”

So what if I don’t like Victor? What’s the big deal about him? He doesn’t have anyone powerful to back him up, but he really thought he could lord over me.

But, of course, those were words that Howard would not say out loud.

“Is that so? It seems like you won’t give up until the very last second,” Sophie icily said.

Howard’s eyes flitted toward the men who were still on the ground. He turned paler.

“Ms. Tanner, didn’t you want to collaborate with us? Let’s do that, but you have to fire Victor. What happened between Victor and I is personal,” was all Howard could say

Regardless of everything, he wanted the man he disliked gone.

“So, you really were the one who kidnapped him,” Sophie said, satisfied. She had received her answer. “Let’s go.”

“Where to?” Howard trembled in fear. The woman looked like a goddess, but she was the devil incarnate the second she started fighting.

“To get on your knees and apologize.”

Sophie was walking ahead, so Howard tried to take the opportunity to run. However, Carl stopped him.

“Mr. Lynder, I’d advise you against pointless struggling. You should know how impressive Ms. Tanner is in fighting.”

At that, Howard had no choice but to slink behind them.

Once Sophie entered the car, Howard tried to climb in after her.

“Do you think you’re worthy of sitting next to Ms. Sophie?” Carl asked coldly.

Howard arched a brow and wondered where he was supposed to sit.

In the next second, Carl opened the trunk.

Howard was about to fly into a rage. There was no one in Jipsdale who had ever treated him in this way, and yet, Sophie and Victor’s secretary were trying to make themselves the exception.

“This way, please, Mr. Lynder. An animal like you only deserves a spot in the trunk,” Carl gleefully uttered. Howard had always been mean to them all, and Carl was finally getting the chance to get back at Howard.

It felt amazing.

“You…” Howard snarled, but Carl was not at all intimidated.

That was because they had Sophie backing them. With Sophie present, there was no need for them to fear Howard.

Hence, Howard had no choice but to climb into the trunk in shame before Carl closed the hatch.

This feels awesome. This is the best feeling ever!

“Mr. Himmer, it’s time for us to leave,” Sophie prompted when she did not see Carl entering the car.

Hearing that, Carl quickly got into the driver’s seat and drove to the hospital.

Victor had yet to fully recover. He had spent the past two days in the hospital, but he was still worried about Tanner Group.

Despite his outward appearance of being unfazed by anything, he would dedicate his all to endeavors he deemed significant.

When he saw Sophie appearing with Howard, he froze.

“Ms. Sophie, this is…”

Aren’t we supposed to be working with Starlight International? If she did this to Howard… I’m afraid that this collaboration is over.

However, in the next moment, Howard got on his knees.

“I’m so sorry, Mr. Victor. I was a fool. You’re a magnanimous man, so please forgive me for my mistakes!”

Howard was terrified. He had been in the trunk for over half an hour, and he had been sure that he was going to die.

Victor had been certain that Victor was the one behind the incident, but now that Victor was kneeling before him, he found himself not holding a grudge against Victor.

“Do you hate me that much, Howard?” In the past, Victor was equally ruthless. It was normal for others to despise him as well.

Despite Victor’s question, Howard did not dare to speak.

“Speak,” came Sophie’s pleasant but apathetic voice.

“I’m so sorry, Mr. Victor. I wasn’t thinking straight at that time. You know I’m not an evil person deep down, so please let me go! I’ll collaborate with Tanner Group!”

“Collaborate with Tanner Group? Do you think we’d work with a piece of trash like you? Howard Lynder, here’s the official news. Our collaboration is over.”

With that said, Sophie gave Carl a look.

“Listen up. Howard. This isn’t over yet. Starlight International will be paying the price for the things you’ve done.”

Howard’s face turned ashen.

“I’m sorry, Ms. Tanner. Please-

Alas, Carl had thrown him out of the ward before he could finish his sentence.

Wasn’t he all high and mighty in the past? Didn’t he act as if he was the best of the best?

“Ms. Sophie, you don’t actually need to do this much for me,” Victor started. The collaboration with Starlight International was rather crucial if he had to be honest.

“Mr. Victor, I’m not doing this for you. Collaborating with someone like Howard would only spell trouble in the future. I have faith in finding a better business partner than him, so don’t worry.”

Howard had a problematic character, and if they were to work with him, issues were bound to appear.

“Mm, you’re right, Ms. Sophie. Don’t worry. Once I’m discharged from the hospital, I’ll work even harder.”

After all, Tanner Group no longer needed to rely on anyone else.

“All right. Rest well, then. You don’t need to worry about Tanner Group’s matters. Come back when you’ve recovered

Just as Sophie returned from the hospital, she found Yale waiting for her by the mansion’s entrance.

He immediately walked up to her when he spotted her.

“Sophie, you should already know how your mother and I have no feelings for each other. I want a Kneel and Apologize divorce from her.”

Yale would not have done anything about that in the past, but since everything was revealed, he might as well get a divorce.

He wanted to be with Angelina. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
