Anything For Her

Chapter 996 Help Us

“Oh,” Sophie uttered when she saw them.

“I’ll pick you up later. Give me a call when you’re done Tristan said.

“All right. You should go about your work now!” Sophie responded. As the CEO of Lombard Group, Tristan must be a

busy man. Yet, he’s always attending to me.

After Tristan left, Arius approached Sophie and wrapped his arm around Sophie’s shoulder. “Sophie, what’s the

progress on the matter I asked you to help me solve? You haven’t even looked at it, have you? Have you been too

busy going on dates?”

“I’ll take a look at it later. There was nothing I could do because there wasn’t a lab in Fandar,” Sophie replied. Due

to the environment in Fandar, my hands were tied.

Arius was walking Sophie in with an arm over her shoulder.

Georgina was watching them, but she knew she couldn’t say anything about it. I know they’re as close as siblings

are, but I’m being left alone at the back. It sucks to watch them interact so intimately.

Right then, Sophie turned her head and noticed the disappointed look on Georgina’s face.

Hence, she shoved Arius hand away. “Keep your hands to yourself. You have a girlfriend now. From now on, you

ought to behave yourself, she advised. Women are more emotionally sensitive. Although nothing is going on

between Arius and me, we should still keep our distance.

“I’m not overthinking it, Sophie. I know you guys are close. Don’t change because of me,” Georgina responded. I

love Arius, so I want him to be happy

Despite hearing those words, Sophie proceeded to pull Georgina in and toward Arius’ embrace.

“All right. Let’s keep walking!” Sophie said. I don’t like seeing Georgina looking so dejected.

Arius wrapped his arms around Georgina and uttered straightforwardly, “My love, I’m so sorry. I shouldn’t have left

you behind. Don’t worry! It won’t happen again. In my heart, you’re a lot more important than Sophie.

Georgina was rendered speechless. Did he have to say that? That sounded so sweet, though!

Sophie got busy as soon as she entered the lab, so she left her phone unattended. Because of that, she didn’t

notice that Victor had been calling her nonstop.

After she was done solving Arius’ problem, she sent the report to Arius and checked her phone. Why did Victor call

me so many times? Something must be up.

With that in mind, she returned Victor’s call immediately.

Unfortunately, she couldn’t get through to him.

A crease appeared between Sophie’s brows. What’s going on? Victor is pretty capable, so there shouldn’t be a

problem. What on earth happened?

Worried, Sophie took off her lab coat and walked toward the exit. Coincidentally, Arius had just seen the report and

was on his way to see her. That was when he saw her walking out. “What’s the matter? Didn’t you just arrive? Are

you leaving already?” he asked.

“I have something urgent to deal with. If you still have questions for me, wait for my return!” Sophie didn’t have

time to chat with him.

“Oh, I see! Do you need my help?” he offered.

“That won’t be necessary!”

Arius didn’t respond to that. All right, then. Since she always has her hands full, perhaps I should just get on with my

tasks. Still, she had only arrived this morning and had already helped me solve my problem. She sure works

incredibly fast! How can the difference between one human and another be so big?

Upon leaving the medical association, Sophie took a taxi to Tanner Group.

The employees at Tanner Group hadn’t seen her in a while because Victor was usually in charge of the office.

When the employees saw her walking past, they were stunned by her attire.

“I had always thought Ms. Sophie was the cool and elegant type. Who would’ve known that she would look so

stunning in a pink dress?”

“Ms. Sophie is a pretty girl, so she’s going to look amazing regardless of what she wears!” one employee

responded. That’s a given! A pretty girl will always look good no matter what clothing style she wears!

Indeed, that statement about Sophie couldn’t be more accurate.

Sophie went straight to Victor’s office and noticed that neither Victor nor his secretary was there. What exactly

happened?

“Does anyone know where Mr. White is?” Sophie asked.

The rest of the employees shook their heads. We had never known where Mr. White was. As his subordinates, we

can’t possibly question Mr. White about his whereabouts.

Sophie called Victor again, but still, no one picked up the call.

After that, she called Victor’s secretary. Unexpectedly, the secretary answered the call, but he sounded extremely

anxious when he called out, “Help us, Ms. Sophie!”

As soon as the secretary finished his sentence, the call ended.

That was when Sophie knew for sure that something bad had happened. D*mn it! Who would dare to come after

the people close to me?

“Did something happen, Ms. Sophie?” The employees were confused because they had never seen Sophie looking

so angry.

“It’s nothing. Carry on with your work.” Sophie gave Butterfly a call and ordered, “Butterfly, I need you to locate

two people.”

Sophie went to the location immediately after Butterfly located Victor and the secretary.

Instead of asking someone to go with her, she went alone.

When she arrived, she saw a group of bald men in black T-shirts. The bald men looked fierce and scary.

Unsurprisingly, the bald men’s eyes lit up when they saw a pretty girl walking toward them.

“Hey, little girl. Are you lost? Are you here to look for men to please you?” one of the men teased.

Sophie turned a deaf ear to those words.

“Are you guys keeping two people here against their wills?” Sophie questioned coldly. At that moment, she was

ready to end their lives.

The bald men exchanged glances when they heard the question.

“Who are you? Why are you here?” one of them asked.

“You don’t have to know who I am. Set my men free. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being ruthless.” Sophie was

giving them a chance to do the right thing. If they set Victor and his secretary free, I’ll be gentler when I beat them

up later.

“Your men? Oh! You must be Ms. Sophie! Well, you’re in the right place. We’ve been looking for you.” The bald men

started behaving seriously. The boss told us to bring those two people here for a reason. We can’t afford to mess

things up.

“Bring me to them.” Sophie didn’t sound intimidated. In fact, she sounded authoritative.

The men brought her in to see Victor and the secretary, who had been beaten up badly. At the sight of that, Sophie

started exuding a wave of murderous aura.

Victor heard some people coming in, so he opened his eyes. He was surprised to see Sophie there.

“What are you doing here, Ms. Sophie? It’s dangerous here! You shouldn’t be here!” Victor uttered. Ms. Sophie

shouldn’t have come. These bad men wouldn’t dare to kill us anyway.

Hearing that, Sophie walked up to Victor.

“Victor, what do you want me to do to them?” Sophie sounded murderous.
