Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 756

Sophia was just about to have her breakfast when she suddenly heard the door to the guest room being pushed open. Frightened, she rushed over and thought, Why didn‘t Arthur lock the door from the inside?!

“Mom. Mom…” She rushed toward the entrance of the guest room and noticed that the room was neat and tidy while Arthur was nowhere to be found. She could not help glancing toward the wardrobe and was stunned to find that the wardrobe door the side that could fit a person inside–was actually ajar.

“Ah!” Sophia revealed an astonished yelp all of a sudden and Emma, who was by the side, was startled by that. Emma turned around to look at Sophia. “Why did you yell like that?”

Sophia glanced toward the window with an extremely horrified expression and the only large window panel that could be opened was currently wide open. She knew that there was a slight path that led to the corridor and that was the spot where the air–conditioning unit was hung on.

Did he actually... Sophia gasped out of fright. Please tell me that he did not just climb out of the window! We‘re on the eighteenth floor!!!

At this point, she hurriedly headed toward Emma. “Mom, I need to go out.”

As soon as she finished her sentence, she yanked open the front door and stepped out as her heart thudded frantically. She felt as if her heart was about to stop beating any moment now. He‘d better be safe!

She frantically rushed out to the corridor and suddenly, she saw that Arthur was standing lazily at the corner of the corřidor as he waited for her.

“Y–You‘ve given me such a fright! How could you climb out of the window just like that?!” Sophia‘s eyes were reddened from the fright she received and she reached out to punch him.

Although it was just a light punch, it was a clear indication of the extent of her anxiety and terror. Arthur was stunned as he did not expect that she would be so frightened by that.

He grabbed her into his arms immediately and apologized in a low voice, “I‘m sorry.”

Sophia was trembling slightly in his arms; as soon as she realized that he had climbed out of the window, her heart nearly stopped and she was hit by a wave of fear that she was going to lose him.

“I would rather my mom find out about you than to have you do such a dangerous

thing again!” She lifted her head and uttered.

Arthur ruffled her hair and smiled. “That‘s alright. I‘ll find another chance to meet your parents next time. I‘m afraid that they‘ll explode if they see me right now.”
