Uncontrollable
In twenty seconds, Sophie removed the bullet fragment deftly and without mistakes.
After the removal of the bullet fragment, follow-up work was just the usual routine.
When the operation was over, Josiah was pushed into the observation room.
Sophie and Arius went to shower and change. However, Sophie found herself leaning against the wall,
her hand trembling uncontrollably.
Sophie bit her lip as she watched her trembling hand.
Tristan had already showered and changed and was waiting outside for her.
The moment he set eyes on her, Tristan noticed that something was not right, and he held her hand.
“It’s okay, now. You did a great job,” Tristan said, consoling her.
Sophie leaned gently on his body and slowly closed her eyes.
Performing such a delicate operation was exhausting both mentally and physically, and she was totally
drained now.
“It’s okay, now. You did well. Now, go and get some rest.” Seeing her in this condition, his heart ached
for her. On the operating table, Sophie’s skill was so extraordinary that no one could take their eyes off
her but she was his woman and he wished that there would be less pressure on her.
Some might judge him for being selfish but all he wanted was for her not to be so exhausted.
“I’ll go and see Grandpa first.” No matter how tired she was, she wanted to see her grandfather before
going back to rest. The operation was done but recovery would depend on close observation and
aftercare.
“Okay, I’ll accompany you to see Old Mr. Tanner first. After seeing him, you can go back to rest. I’ll stay
there and everything will be fine.” He could take over her place to watch over him.
Sophie did not protest as she really needed to rest for a while. Besides, Josiah would take several
hours before waking up.
Josiah had been wheeled into the observation room and visitors were not allowed in. So, she went in
alone.
“Grandpa, I’ve done all that can be done. It all depends on you now. You’ve always been my hero so I
am sure you can pull through. You won’t let me down, will you?”
Her grandfather was a veteran. He had been through the war and was an indomitable hero. If it was not
for that tiny bullet fragment, he would not leave his beloved job.
After speaking a few words, Sophie came out of the observation room as she could not stay long.
Yale saw her coming out. Immediately, he asked with concern, “Soph, how is your grandpa doing?
After he was wheeled out, we asked many doctors, but they were not familiar with the case.”
At that point, Yale’s attitude toward Sophie improved a lot.
Realizing that Tristan was on her side, Yale did not dare to show any disrespect. After all, the Lombard
family was very prominent in the city of Jipsdale.
“The operation was a success, but we will only know the whole picture after Grandpa wakes up.” After
all, he was advanced in age. Younger folks may take a few days to recover, but he would take longer.
“The successful operation is a good thing,” Yale mumbled, almost to himself.
Charmaine glanced at Yale in surprise. That was the first time he was so cordial to Sophie.
“Okay, you’re tired. Go and rest.” Tristan did not want her to stay and talk for too long. The operation
had already sapped too much of her energy.
Sophie stopped talking and went off to the VIP ward nearby accompanied by Tristan.
“Why are you so nice to Sophie today? Is there something I do not know?”
She did not understand the present situation at all. What is going on? She did not like that feeling at all
as she liked to be in control of every situation.
“Have a better attitude towards Sophie in the future. The entire Tanner family can only rely on her in the
future.” Yale had not expected that after he spent so much time and effort on Willow, the boss turned
out to be Sophie in the end.
Charmaine frowned. “Why? I don’t understand.”
“You don’t need to understand.” Who was Tristan after all? He did not even know if Tristan would mind
others finding out about his relationship with Sophie.
It did not matter what Tristan thought of Sophie, they could no longer ill treat Sophie.
Even if Sophie was just a pet kept by Tristan, no one would dare to harm his pet.
Furthermore, no one really knew what Sophie meant to Tristan.
“What was that about? Can’t you tell me the truth?”
We are one family, aren’t we? Why is it necessary to be so secretive and hide the truth?
“Don’t question me. Just do as I say, that’s all.”
Charmaine was rather upset. She was his wife, after all. Why does he always use the same reason to
shut me up?
Tristan led Sophie to the ward. He had to see her lie down with his own eyes.
“Sleep well, so I won’t worry about you, okay? I shall go over to Grandpa now and watch him. There
won’t be any problem.”
“Mr. Tristan, I really appreciate this.”
She felt at ease having him around.
“You don’t have to mention that with me.”
Tristan tucked her in, closed the door and left.
Soon, she fell asleep and had a dream. The dream went on for a long time.
In the dream, she was about seven or eight years old. Her grandfather went down on all four and
dotingly carried her on his back.
The memory became vivid and it was difficult to differentiate between a dream and reality.
Nonetheless, she had smiled sweetly in the dream.
Then, the dream changed and it was about the recent surgery but was a failure.
“Grandpa—”
Sophie woke up in fear from the nightmare, drenched with perspiration.
Sitting up on the hospital bed, Sophie gasped violently. With one hand placed over her beating heart,
she reached out for her phone with the other to check the time.
She had slept for more than forty minutes.
Unable to go back to sleep, she dressed up and went outside. Tristan was standing guard outside and
saw her the moment she appeared.
He walked toward her, frowning in disapproval. How long did she sleep? Why is she up already?
“Why don’t you sleep a bit longer?” He led her to a bench nearby and seated her. Seeing her covered
in perspiration, he could not help looking at her with concern. “What happened? Did you have a bad
dream?”
“Mr. Tristan, is my grandpa alright?” As someone who was knowledgeable in the field of medicine, she
knew that the operation was very successful, but as Grandpa’s beloved little girl, she actually asked a
silly question.
Knowing that she was worried about Josiah, Tristan held her hand tightly.
“Didn’t Arius say it’s a completely successful operation? You took part in it yourself.” She knew
everything, but that did not stop her from worrying.
Sophie nodded. That’s true! She knew everything, from beginning to end. She knew it all.
Yet, she could not help but worry. In fact, she was even fearful.
Sophie leaned on his shoulder.
“I know that this is not good but I can’t help it. I can’t control myself.” She did not like it but she cared
too much for her grandfather, so she became all worried and felt awful about it.
