Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 701

Arthur retorted, “Why would you want me to head in? What about you?”

Sophia gave a smile. “I don’t have to since I won’t be married before age thirty. anyway.”

He didn’t enter the community center to mingle around because he never intended to settle down either.

At this moment, there was a sudden downpour that trapped the both of them inside the church on the hilltop. The security guards had already knocked off work at this stage and forgot that Arthur and Sophia were still inside before they proceeded to lock the doors.

It was raining cats and dogs and did not look like it would stop for a long time.

When she looked at the time, she couldn’t resist informing him, “I think their staff has knocked off work and would lock us here if we don’t leave soon.”

“It’s raining cats and dogs, so how are we going to leave?” Arthur felt at ease as he asked.

“I think it won’t stop until night time!” She cupped her face while she answered.

Not long after that, she felt that the raindrops were beautiful and reached out to play in the rain. The sky gradually darkened over in the distance, which meant that nightfall was about to arrive. The mountain behind the church had also started to become deserted.

“Otherwise, let’s try to make our way down,” Sophia said to Arthur. “If we’re drenched, so be it!”

He nodded in agreement, after which they walked into the rain. As they were heading down the steps, he reached out with his hand and explained, “I’ll hold you.”

“You don’t have to…” She waved her hand in rejection.

“I’m worried that you’ll fall down,” a concerned Arthur explained. This

woman had been repeatedly too reckless for her safety, so he could predict the kind of dangers that would befall her in advance.

A helpless Sophia then took his hand before they held hands in the rain and created the impression that they were romantic lovers.

When they finally arrived at the bottom of the steps, she looked left and right as she yelled without receiving any response. She cursed as she slapped her own mouth. “I really have a crow’s mouth because what I said turned out to be true. They have indeed knocked off work.”
