My Baby’s Daddy novel (Anastasia) novel Chapter 806

Chapter 806

Even if Arthur had been manipulated, the imposing aura he exuded remained the same. 

Hearing footsteps coming from the garden, he stopped and turned around to find a servant leading Sophia in his direction. He furrowed his brows slightly in response. What is this woman doing here, still wandering around in the garden at this late hour? 

Sophia fought hard to conceal the sadness and adoration in her eyes upon seeing him, and she lowered her head, not intending to greet him. She wanted to go to her room and lock herself in from here on, or she would go mad. 

She grew increasingly miserable as the countdown to his wedding became shorter. She was tough but not tough enough to remain emotionless as she watched the man she loved deeply marry another woman. 

“Stop.” A crisp voice came from behind her. 

“Young Master Weiss,” the servant greeted him, then walked away astutely. 

Sophia stood in the brightly lit hall with her back facing him, having no intention of turning around. Meanwhile, he came forth with steady footsteps and stopped in front of her. With one hand in his pocket, he lowered his eyes and sized her up. 

“Why run away when you see me? Are you not going to say hi?” Arthur asked with irritation, causing Sophia to face away. “It‘s really late. I want to return to my room and rest.” 

Arthur suddenly felt frustrated. He checked his watch to find it was already 10.00PM, but he wanted to be with her for a while longer. 

“Are you free? Join me for a drink,” Arthur asked, to which she rejected resolutely. “No.” 

“Did you say you‘re my friend? We‘ll just have one glass as friends. I won‘t take up much of your time.” Arthur insisted. 

Sophia shut her eyes and fought back the urge to keep him company. However, just as she wanted to turn him down again, Arthur clasped her wrist and dragged her to the wine cellar without another word. 

Sophia had thought he was taking her to the dining room, but it quickly became apparent to her that she was wrong. This man had a lavish wine cellar in his basement, storing the best liquor around the world. 

As she stepped out of the elevator, she looked at the dimly lit wine cellar with amazement. 

“Do we have to drink here?” Sophia mumbled, causing Arthur to look over his shoulder at her. “Are you afraid I‘ll do something to you?” 

Sophia took a gander at him in response. Hadn‘t you already done everything you were allowed to? What else can there be for me to be afraid of? She just thought, with her current position, they shouldn‘t be in the same room.
