Chapter 617

No matter how resentful Willow felt, she could only be taken away right then, for no one took her side.

“Just you wait! I'll never give up this easily!” I've already hired an assassin, and he'll likely make his move these few

days! Before leaving, she glared at Charmaine and Yale in hatred.

“Then, there's the two of you! I'll definitely make you pay for your decisions today!”

Yale said nothing, merely standing at the side silently. As for Charmaine, she didn't know what else she could say.

Victor walked over to Sophie.

“Don't worry, Ms. Sophie. I've retained the few major projects.” That was precisely why he hadn't been to the office

in the past few days.

Since Ms. Sophie entrusted Tanner Group to me, I can't let her down!

“It must have been difficult for you these past few days. Sorry, but you'll have to work hard for a few more days.

Boost the morale so that the employees aren't affected by this!”

Sophie gave him a lot of instructions, and Victor noted everything down.

“What about them?” Yale is currently the Chairman of Tanner Group. How am I to deal with him? If he remains,

everyone won't be able to relax.

“You don't need to look at me. I'll retire right away and go travel the world.” Yale immediately expressed his stance.

By then, he had understood everything.

Everyone in the company doesn't accept us. If Tanner Group were really to be managed by me and Willow, it'd only

end up destroyed. Since we can't snatch it away, so be it. It isn't so bad either to have everything remain as it is

now.

On the contrary, Charmaine had seemingly aged overnight.

“I won't come to the company anymore henceforth, so don't worry!”

Sophie had the driver send Yale and Charmaine home while she remained at Tanner Group to handle some leftover

problems.

When they arrived home, Charmaine plopped onto the couch and wept.

As soon as Yale saw that, a terrible headache assailed him.

“What are you doing? What's the use of crying? Do you not know the kind of person Sophie is? Since she decided to

do such a thing back then, she could only bear the consequences today. Besides, it doesn't affect us much.”

She should be content that things didn't end too badly!

“Is this all you plan to do with your life, Yale? No matter what, Willow is my daughter! Don't you feel anything at all

to see her taken away like that?”

“What should I have felt? Was I the one who told her to forge the will? Others might not know the truth, but don't

we both know whether the will is genuine or otherwise?” Yale riposted.

“But she's still my daughter! If Sophie were to truly send her to a psychiatric hospital, her entire life would be

ruined!” Charmaine countered in anguish.

Why did that well-behaved daughter of mine suddenly turn out to be such?

“What do you want, then? Do you think Sophie is going to listen to you? She used to be obedient to Dad, but he's no

longer here, is he?”

Now, she isn't going to listen to anyone anymore!

Charmaine naturally understood that. But am I to just give up on Willow?

“Okay, that's enough! Didn't you also never bother when we abandoned Sophie to Horington back then? Is she not

your daughter?”

That left Charmaine without a retort.

Admittedly, I'm biased. But what can I do about it? I simply hate Sophie's attitude. That's the only reason for my

behavior!

“All right, stop thinking about things that can't be solved. Just do whatever you're supposed to do. I've got

something to do, so I'm leaving. I'm not coming home for dinner. Cook or order something for yourself!” Yale didn't

want to bother about her anymore either.

After he had left, Charmaine was left alone at home. For a moment, grief surged within her.

This family is probably going to crumble very soon! Willow's fate is hanging in the balance now, while Yale had long

since lost interest in me.

Meanwhile, Sophie needed to handle a slew of problems at the office because of the incident this time. It wasn't

until after she had sorted out everything that she left Tanner Group. All the employees were incredibly thrilled by

her return.

They were glad that they could finally live a normal life again.

During the past few days when Willow managed the company, their days had been hell on earth. Probably no one

else could understand such a feeling.

Upon leaving Tanner Group, Sophie took a taxi to Lombard Group directly.

The receptionists at Lombard Group were aware of her identity, so one of them personally called the elevator for

her so that she could look for Tristan.

“Mr. Tristan is already waiting for you in his office, Ms. Tanner.”

“Thank you.” Sophie was extremely courteous with the receptionists.

Smiling, the receptionists watched as she entered the elevator.

“No wonder Mr. Tristan likes Ms. Tanner. While she looks aloof, she's good-natured.”

“Exactly! I've been working with the company for a few years now, and countless socialites have come here in

pursuit of Mr. Tristan. But still, I find it more comfortable to interact with Ms. Tanner.”

She doesn't put on airs at all. That's likely why it feels pleasant to talk to her.

“Anyway, she's better than Ms. Quigley who always acts high and mighty.”

We're all the same. She merely has a better family background. What right does she have to look down on us?

Moreover, the fact that we made it into Lombard Group is already a testament to our capabilities.

At Lombard Group, even receptionists were graduates from prestigious universities, and their remunerations were

far better than professionals from other companies.

“But then, I heard that Ms. Tanner's family background isn't that good. I wonder if they'll really end up together,”

one of the receptionists remarked enviously.

“It's already the modern era now, and no one cares about that anymore. Stop daydreaming! Even if Ms. Tanner

doesn't make the cut, you'll never be in the running.”

“How dare you! That's not necessarily true. Don't look down on me.”

Can't I even daydream for a bit?

No matter how refined one was, people loved to gossip, and the few receptionists were no exception.

In the meantime, Sophie had already arrived on the ninetieth floor. Wanting to give Tristan a surprise, she turned

the doorknob lightly, planning to enter his office stealthily.

Little did she expect that she would suffer a fright instead.

The instant she stepped in, she was greeted by the sight of a beautiful bare back. She moved her gaze downward,

only to see that the woman was actually standing there without a stitch on.

In a flash, all the blood in her body rushed to her head.

Meanwhile, the woman in front of her had never expected someone to enter the room without knocking. Right

then, she used her hands to cover her body though it was futile.

“Who are you?” She was utterly panicked, but one could tell that she was an exceedingly pampered person.

Sophie's eyes narrowed into slits.

Not only is this woman trying to seduce my man, but she even stole my line now.

She strolled over to Tristan, gratification inundating her to see that he had his eyes closed.

Well, my man can't contaminate his eyes with such filth!

“Shouldn't I be asking you that?” Sophie regarded the shameless woman before her coldly.
