Chapter 987 The Arrangement
“Do you have any suitable candidates in mind?” He actually wanted Bertram to stay.
After all, Bertram was the one who established the place.
It was only natural to have him stay and manage everything.
In short, Bertram was the most suitable candidate,
Sophie nodded in agreement.
“I also think Bert is a great choice. In my opinion, Zen is really talented, and I hope he can learn from Bert.”
Arthur was getting older, and he couldn’t protect them forever. Hence, Zen had to mature fast.
Tristan nodded too.
“Hmm, why don’t you discuss this with Bertram yourself? I’m all right with it if he has no objections.” In truth, he knew that Bertram would definitely agree.
That was why he didn’t say much.
“All right, I understand.”
Sophie could only find peace of mind once she had taken care of all the affairs concerning Arthur and the rest, allowing her to finally unwind and return.
When Bertram returned that night, he was somewhat surprised to find Sophie waiting for him at the doorstep.
“Ms. Tanner, is there something you need from me? You can just call me instead of waiting here.”
“I want you to guide someone, but I won’t ask you to do it without any reward. If you ever need assistance in the future, I will be there to help you. No questions asked.”
“Guide someone? Who?”
“Mr. Camidge’s grandson, Zen Camidge.”
“Oh, that kid! Sure, Ms. Tanner. You don’t have to say such things. I’m happy to teach him!” As Sophie’s die-hard fan, Bertram wouldn’t refuse anything she asked of him.
“Okay, once you settle things here, I’ll have him come and follow you.”
“No problem,” he readily agreed.
Why would there be a problem? I will do anything to assist Ms. Tanner as long as she needs help.
“Ms. Tanner, you should go back and get some rest!” If Tristan discovered that Sophie had been waiting there for so long, he wouldn’t let matters slide. Thus, Bertram quickly urged the woman to head back.
“You’ve been working really hard, so do get some rest too!” Sophie said before retreating to her room. Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
Upon seeing Sophie’s return, Tristan deduced that she must have sorted everything out. It wasn’t a significant matter in itself, but she cared about it due to its connection to Arthur.
“You can finally relax!” Tristan remarked.
“Yes, it’s better to personally convey the message. I feel more at ease knowing that Zen is entrusted to Bert,” Sophie replied.
“Yeah. Bertram is a trustworthy man.”
Sophie sat on the couch and took out her phone. After seeing the news about Ysabelle’s relationship, she casually clicked the like button.
In reality, Felix was a worthy man for Ysabelle and deserved a public relationship with her. What the former desired was nothing more than a sense of security, after all.
“Are you reading the news about Felix and Ysabelle? Are you worried that it’ll affect Ysabelle?” They wasted no time in announcing their relationship as soon as they returned.
She always cares about many things, but this isn’t a big deal, right?
“Well, I don’t think it’s a problem. Ysabelle has always dreamed of becoming a singer, but she never saw herself as an idol. Singers can date and get married!”
Even if some fans might temporarily lose interest in her, Ysabelle would still be able to win everyone over with her talent in the long run.
“Well, good to know that you’ve confidence in her.”
If Sophie has such unwavering faith in Ysabelle, then there should be no cause for concern.
Tristan had spent much of his time in Fandar planning for the wedding. He was especially looking forward to this once-in-a-lifetime event, where he would marry the woman he loved most.
Hence, he certainly hoped the wedding ceremony would be perfect.
The wedding outfit was ready, and they just needed to try it on when they returned.
Sophie wanted a traditional Chanaean wedding, so he had Chanaean-style attires made for her.
In the following days, Bertram made remarkable progress.
They could resolve matters quickly when Sophie and Tristan were present.
Within half a month, a new order had been established.
No one dared to disrespect them from then on.
Upon learning of Sophie’s arrangements, Arthur felt even more grateful to her.
It was true that regardless of how formidable others might be, one could only protect one’s loved ones if one was powerful.
Alas, they lacked such a person.
Arthur had been worried about what would happen to them after he left, but given Bertram’s willingness to guide Zen, the latter could lead the team in the future.
“Mr. Camidge, what do you think about this arrangement?” Sophie asked.
Being under Bertram’s tutelage would undoubtedly provide immense learning opportunities.
However, it also came with certain risks.
Such was the nature of society.
In order to gain something, one must be prepared to make sacrifices.
“Thank you for making the arrangement, Ms. Tanner. I have nothing but gratitude. How could I possibly raise any objections?”
This was the best arrangement Arthur could hope for.
Zen was fortunate to be able to learn from Bertram.
“Well, then it’s settled. If you have any concerns in the future, just look for Bertram. He’s trustworthy,” Sophie affirmed.
She had already explained everything to Bertram.
“Ms. Tanner, I’m truly grateful. You are our benefactor, and I don’t know how to thank you.”
They yearned to find a meaningful way to express their appreciation to their benefactor.
However, they had limited abilities and didn’t know what they could do.
“There’s no need for all that, you’ve also been a great help to me,” Sophie replied gratefully. Without their assistance, finding Felix wouldn’t have been that easy.
“Ms. Tanner, Mr. Tristan is a good man, and we believe that you will find happiness with him.”
Ms. Tanner is a good person. A person like her deserves everlasting happiness.
“Hmm,” Sophie responded, her thoughts momentarily stalling as she contemplated how to acknowledge the praises bestowed upon Tristan. The truth was undeniable; Tristan was indeed an exceptional man.
Everything was set now that the decision was made.
Upon learning that Tristan had entrusted him with the management of Fandar, Bertram felt a sense of urgency creeping in.
He had always dedicated himself wholeheartedly to handling affairs in Fandar. However, he couldn’t help but ask, “Are you sure about letting me manage Fandar, Mr. Tristan?”
Everyone had their eyes set on this lucrative position! Hence, Tristan could have considered others for the role.
“You deserve it. You have always been by my side, and your abilities are beyond doubt,” Tristan reassured him.
Bertram had always willingly supported Tristan and never intended to compete for these rewards.
“Thank you, Mr. Tristan. Please rest assured! I will manage this place well so that you and Ms. Tanner will not be disappointed,” Bertram stated solemnly.
“I’ll get someone to help you. Who do you wish to join you from Jipsdale?”
Tristan couldn’t help but worry that Bertram might not be able to handle the vast responsibilities alone.
“I have the authority to make the decision?” The latter was taken aback by the unexpected empowerment bestowed upon him.
