Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 774

At that, Drake coughed and said, “Alright, I‘ll go and help your mother out. You should entertain Young Master Weiss.”

After Drake left, Sophia began behaving somewhat restrainedly. Who‘d have thought something from the TV would actually happen to her?! She thought Arthur‘s family was merely rich. However, not only were they rich, they also dominated the world‘s most money–making businesses. To add to the list, his family was mysterious and complex as well.

Arthur held her hand and kissed the back of it. “Did I scare you?”

“How would I not be scared when this is my first time hearing about your family‘s businesses?!” Sophia didn‘t conceal her thoughts.

“My love for you has nothing to do with my family‘s assets,” said Arthur as he fixed her hair. “I‘m no God. My life will wither away as you would, and I‘ll need to eat as well. I‘m just a living, breathing man who has fallen in love with you, Miss Sophia Goodwin.”

Sophia burst into a giggle. “There‘s no need to humble yourself to comfort me. I feel really lucky to be able to meet you and to be loved by you.”

“Me too,” Arthur cooed by her ear in a slightly hoarse voice.

Emma cooked up a feast that night, and the four enjoyed a pleasant dinner as well. After finally realizing who Arthur truly was, the Goodwin couple no longer viewed the young man as some scourge. Rather, he and Sophia made a pretty lovely couple the more they looked at it.

Nothing beat Sophia‘s love for her significant other. They just hoped that this affluent young man wouldn‘t disappoint their daughter.

After dinner, Arthur took Sophia home, and while driving, he would keep his eyes on the few black SUVs behind them every now and then. These vehicles had been following them since they left Goodwin Residence.

It just so happened that Sophia wanted to get something when they were about to reach the apartment complex‘s entrance, and after pulling over, she turned to Arthur. “Wait here for a few minutes. I‘ll be right back.”

As Sophia went into the supermarket, one of the black SUVs instantly approached them, and two stalwart bodyguards got out of it, greeting Arthur deferentially, “Young Master.”

“What are you guys doing here?” Arthur wasn‘t the happiest to see them.

“Old Madam Weiss has asked us to take you home.”

“I will go back myself.”
