Chapter 363 Impossible
1/4
Arthur snuffed out his cigarette and walked toward Claire while asking, “What?”
When Claire saw the emotion in Arthur’s eyes, her hands stopped trembling, and her fear vanished, leaving only pure shock.
She couldn’t believe her ears.
What did Arthur just say?
He actually said he didn’t want her to die, that he wanted her by his side for life!
Hell, no! She must have heard wrong!
After all, it was Arthur, the one whose name alone had struck terror into the hearts of men since childhood.

“Choosing me won’t benefit you in any way. It’ll only bring you negative consequences. You might even lose your shot at the presidency because of me.”
Claire was genuinely confused beyond reason.
