Sophia was certain that besides the memory loss that he experienced, his old self was back. She then turned around, looked up at his attractive face, and tiptoed before leaning in to peck on his cheek.
“Thank you for choosing me.” She looked at him with affection. He had saved her from the agonizing heartache that she would go through if he married Emily in the end.
She wouldn’t know what would happen if she had lost him as she saw him as someone very important to her, so much so that he was more important than her own life.
Hearing that, he realized that he held an important place in her heart and that he was a very important person in her life. If he really did marry Emily under the influence of the drug, he couldn’t imagine what would happen to Sophia.
Even if he regained consciousness in the end, the whole incident would have broken the woman’s heart. He would make sure that the Jennings family paid for hurting the woman he loved.
Arthur then pulled her into his arms and rested his cheeks on her forehead. “Although you have been wiped off from my memories, my heart and body haven’t forgotten you. All of my senses tell me I like you and that you’re the only one I want.”
Hearing that, tears rolled out her cheeks and she was relieved that she had taken the trip. If not, they would have missed out on each other. She felt like the heavens were on their side.
“I’m sorry.” He looked down and wiped her tears off with his hand before holding her face and going in for a kiss.
Sophia, her face wet with tears, could feel his affectionate kiss. It had calmed her heart as she knew that her happiness was right in front of her and all she had to do was to grab on to it.
