Chapter 779 Unable To Return

As soon as Sophie entered, she saw Willow standing behind Charmaine, looking nervous and afraid.

It was the first time Sophie had seen Willow like this, but it was understandable.

No matter how tough she was, she couldn't continue to be arrogant after experiencing what she had gone through.

Sophie looked away.

“Since today is Christmas Eve, you should go back now!” After all, William was still waiting for Tristan to go back for

dinner.

“It's still early. I'll stay here with you for a while,” Tristan said. Willow had returned, but he still hadn't given her the

warning he needed to give, so how could he leave now?

“Okay. Then go and pay your respects to my grandpa.” Given that it was Christmas Eve, Josiah's framed photo had

already been decorated and set up.

“Sure.”

Tristan naturally had no objections and went to pay his respects to Josiah before going to Sophie's room with her.

“Do you want me to come and pick you up later tonight? I know you don't like staying here.” Sophie never liked

staying here even when Josiah was here, let alone now that he was gone.

“You don't have to worry about me. You should go back quickly!” She just didn't like these people very much, but it

was not like they could do anything to her.

“Okay!”

Tristan went downstairs and saw Willow. “Willow, come here!”

When Willow heard him, she shrank back. What else does he want from me? I haven't done anything wrong, have

I?

“Mr. Tristan, is there something you want to talk to me about?” Willow was very nervous.

Tristan sneered upon noticing her timid behavior.

“I just want to tell you not to trouble Sophie anymore. She doesn't like you, so don't bother her. Otherwise, I won't

go easy on you.” He wasn't someone who would repay enmity with kindness.

Willow felt bitter in her heart. She had been living a life worse than death on that deserted island and had just

returned a while ago, yet all he was concerned about was Sophie being troubled by her.

How is Sophie this lucky? No matter what Sophie had experienced before, there was now a man who would care for

her and wouldn't let her suffer any grievances.

They were both daughters of the Tanner family, so Willow wondered why she couldn't have all of this as well.

As for Sophie, she didn't need to do anything to have everything.

“Mr. Tristan, rest assured! I know Sophie isn't someone I can mess with, so I won't bother her.” Willow promised him

since she could only lie low for now. What else could she do?

She didn't want to go back to that place anymore.

Moreover, if she went out now, those socialites she used to be close with would definitely mock her!

“Good then. Remember, Sophie may not kill you, but I will not hesitate to do so. As long as you dare to do anything

that upsets her, I will make sure you disappear from the face of the earth without her having to say a single word.”

What I did this time is for Old Mr. Tanner's sake.

Tristan then immediately left without giving her a chance to respond. Meanwhile, Sophie was still upstairs as Tristan

didn't let her come down to see him off.

It was cold outside, so he didn't want her to catch a cold.

After Tristan left, Willow stood alone in the cold with no expression on her face. Soon, Charmaine came out and saw

her there. “What are you doing out here? It's so cold outside! Come inside!”

There was heating in the house, and it was much more comfortable inside, so Charmaine wondered why Willow

was standing outside in the cold.

“Mom, I don't want to go back to that place again. I just want to stay by your side in peace.”

Seeing Willow like this, Charmaine naturally felt her heart ache.

“Okay, I'll go talk to Sophie later, and I'll plead with her.” She could beg for Willow's sake.

“I knew it—you're the best, Mom. I was foolish before, and I shouldn't have done those things. I really regret it.”

“Okay, it's all right now. From now on, I'll protect you.” Charmaine just wanted to protect her well.

Due to the fact that Yale and Sophie were home, the housekeepers didn't dare to mess around. Hence, the Tanner

family's Christmas dinner was exceptionally sumptuous.

Last year, Josiah ate Christmas dinner with everyone, but this year, he was gone.

Before dinner, Yale paid respects to his father.

“Dad, don't worry! From now on, our family will be fine, and I will take care of this home.”

Yale and Charmaine bowed in the front, whereas Sophie and Willow bowed behind the couple. The whole reason for

Sophie being there that night was to pay her respects to Josiah.

After that, the family sat down to eat.

“Sophie, we are family. No matter what had happened before, we are still family in the future.”

Yale received so much in dividends that year that he had no objections to the issue of Tanner Group's management

rights.

He felt that everything was fine the way it was.

“Willow, since you're finally back, you should go to school after some time!”

Willow nodded in an especially temperate manner. Following the recent events, she no longer possessed the same

level of boldness she did before.

The Christmas dinner was indeed sumptuous, but Sophie didn't particularly like the food that was served.

Seeing that she wasn't eating much, Yale couldn't help but worry.

“Why aren't you eating? Is it not to your liking? Do you want me to have the cooks make you a few more dishes?” If

it was a matter of the dishes not suiting her taste, it could be resolved.

“It's okay, you guys eat! I'm full!” Sophie didn't eat much as she really didn't have an appetite.

Charmaine didn't say much during dinner. She just hoped that she and Willow could live peacefully.

As for Sophie, what she did was her own business, and they had nothing to do with her anymore. Charmaine was

well aware that she and Sophie would never see eye to eye.

After finishing dinner, Sophie went upstairs. In the past, she would watch the New Year's Gala on TV in the living

room with Josiah after their Christmas dinner.

But now, no matter how much she wished to do it, she could never return to the past.

After she went upstairs, Yale said to the other two, “Remember, we will be relying on Sophie for our livelihood in the

future, so be nice to her!”

If Willow was the only one showing attitude, it would have been fine. But Charmaine was also terribly unreasonable.

She's not young anymore. Can't she show some concern for her own daughter?

“Dad, I'm sorry. I...” Willow didn't want to go back to the deserted island anymore. She didn't want to be there alone

as life was too harsh in such a place.

“It's okay. You don't have to say anything. Sophie is a generous person. As long as you don't cause trouble, she

won't harm you!”

Willow didn't know how to respond. Is that really enough? Would Sophie really let me go if I just stayed out of

trouble?

“Will you stop criticizing Willow? You also agreed to those decisions back then, but now you're pushing the blame all

onto her. Is that fair?” Charmaine snapped.
