Chapter 946
Chapter 946 Everything Is True
In the director’s office, the director personally brewed tea for Sophie and Caleb.
“Hello. You must be Sophie’s brother, right? I already know about your situation. When can you report to the Institute?” the director asked straightforwardly.
Since Caleb was introduced by Sophie, the director had no doubts whatsoever.
“Can I really report to the research institute?” Caleb still found it hard to believe what was happening.
Isn’t the director going to ask me anything else before deciding to let me stay?
“Of course. Why not you report tomorrow?” the director said anxiously. As long as Sophie was willing to come here, he would naturally agree to any conditions.
“Don’t worry. I won’t let you down.” Caleb replied excitedly.
“It’s settled, then. You will report to the Institute of Physics tomorrow.”
“Thank
you so much.” Caleb couldn’t believe that everything had gone so smoothly because he had thought he would have to go through some kind of assessment at least.
The director smiled upon seeing Caleb’s reaction. This kid seems honest and sincere.
“Okay, in that case, I won’t disturb you any longer. I have other matters to attend to today. I’ll treat you to a meal another day, which I hope you will honor me with your presence,” Sophie said as she stood
up.
“Since you’re here, why not we take a tour around? We have a really good environment here.” Since Sophie joined the medical association, the director had been thinking about ways to recruit her to the Institute of Physics.
Unfortunately, there was never an opportunity.
“Don’t worry. I will fulfill the promise I made to you.” Sophie smiled, finding the director adorable.
“Okay, then! I’ll see you off.”
“It’s okay. I know you’re busy. Please go ahead.” Sophie declined the offer because she didn’t want Caleb to feel as if he had any special treatment since he was new to the institute.
If anyone thought that Caleb received treatment, it might be difficult for him to get along with his peers in the research institute in the future.
“All right. Remember what you said. You promised to treat me to a meal. I’ll be waiting for your call.” The director smiled amiably.
What bad intentions could he have? He just hoped that Sophie would stay.
After exiting the Institute of Physics and getting into the car, Caleb still had a surreal feeling about what had happened.
“Soph, I’m not dreaming, am I?” Has the thing that I have always yearned for finally come true?
“Everything is true. You can continue doing what you love.” Caleb was really passionate about physics research. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have persevered for such a long time.
All of a sudden, he felt like crying.
His eyes reddened. Biting his lower lip, he tried to think of something to say but he couldn’t.
“Thank you, Soph.”
As her elder brother, he had never done anything much for her, yet she had done so much for him.
“You don’t have to thank me, Caleb. If it’s something that I can do, there’s no reason for me not to help you.” Since Caleb had never harbored ill intentions toward her and it was Josiah’s wish that she helped him, she wouldn’t stand idly by. “Also, just let me know if anyone bullies you in the future. I won’t allow the Tanners to be bullied by others.”
“I should be the one protecting you instead, Soph. I’m sorry for neglecting you in the past.” Caleb realized that he had been too selfish back then, and he hoped that it wasn’t too late for him to make amends.
Sophie smiled.
“Find some time to visit Grandpa, Caleb! You have always been his hope and his pride even though he didn’t say it out loud.”
“I know.”
The reason why Sophie helped Caleb was partly because of Josiah, who was the only person in this family who genuinely treated her well.
After dropping Caleb off at the Tanner residence, Sophie stayed in the car.
“Caleb, report directly to the Institute of Physics tomorrow. Don’t be stressed about it. You can do this; you just lack an opportunity.”
If he could stay at the Institute of Physics in Anglandur for such a long time, he was definitely capable.
“Yes, I know. Don’t worry! I won’t let Grandpa down, Caleb said firmly, swearing to himself that he would work harder from now on.
“I shall go now.”
Sophie drove away directly because she still had to go to TS Entertainment. There was no time for her to
waste.
It was only after Sophie drove away that Caleb went inside the Tanner residence. Willow was watering the plants in the garden. When she saw him, she put down the watering can.
“You’re back, Caleb! Where did you go?”
“I had some business to attend to.” Caleb didn’t say much. “I have something to do. Catch you later.”
I can’t believe Caleb isn’t willing to share with me where he just went! Am I so unimportant now? Why is everyone neglecting me like this?
The servants who managed the plants watched nervously as Willow continued to water them absent- mindedly. Although the plants weren’t exotic, it wasn’t easy to cultivate them.
Ms. Willow isn’t taking care of the plants at all! She’s clearly killing them!
However, the servants dared not risk provoking her even though her temperament had been in control since the last incident.
They could only silently watch as she threw the watering can to the ground and went back to her room.
Willow swore to herself that she would retaliate back at those who looked down on her one day.
Sophie arrived at TS Entertainment, only to find out that Xandra hadn’t come to work for several days. She tried calling her a few times, but no one picked up.
“Sophie, do you think something happened to Ms. Yandell? She hasn’t come to work for days, and we can’t reach her on the phone.” Ysabelle was very worried.
“It’s okay. I’ll go to her house and check on her.”
“I’ll go with you!”
“Okay.”
After settling some matters at the company, Sophie brought Ysabelle to find Xandra. When they reached Xandra’s house, there was no response when they knocked on her door.
“Don’t tell me something bad has happened! I know Ms. Yandell is really beautiful, but it won’t be a danger to her, right?” Ysabelle asked anxiously as she recalled the recent headline news about murdered young
women.
“Ms. Yandell, are you in there? Ms. Yandell?” Ysabelle banged on the door forcefully.
“Step aside. Let me try!” Standing in front of the keypad lock, Sophie stared at it for a moment and tried a few combinations.
“Is this really going to work, Sophie? Maybe we should call the police!” Ysabelle suggested after Sophie tried to open the door for a long time but to no avail. However, the door was opened successfully by Sophie at that moment.
Ysabelle’s jaw dropped.
Sophie actually managed to open the door!
Is there anything she can’t do?
