Chapter 656
Night of Destiny
âDo not do this again, Arthur warned.
âYes, sir!â Sophia nodded obediendly. She was so embarrassed by the incident that she wanted to crawl
into a hole.
Just then, Arthurâs phone rang. A look of surprise flashed across his features when he saw the caller ID,
and he hurried to answer the call. âHello?â
âArtie, itâs me! Iâm corning to visit you!â a girly voice spoke up on the other line..
When the call ended, he gave Sophia an
unreadable look. She swallowed
nervously and asked, âWhat is it?â
âA friend of mine will be staying here for a while, he explained. A moment of thought later, he added,
ââFrom now on, you are not to misbehave in front of me. and you will act like a proper servant. Do you
understand?â
Sophia was no idiot. She had a feeling that this friend of Arthurâs was someone that he secretly had a
crush on, so she suggested hopefully, âYou know, youâre
more than welcome to give me some time off if you think Iâm only going to get in your way.â
He eyed her frigidly and bit out commandingly. âYou are not leaving.
Curiosity got the better of her as she tilted her head to one side and asked in amusement, âSo, is this
friend of yours just an ordinary friend, or is she someone special to you?â
I donât see how thatâs any of your business,â he replied with a raised brow.
âWell, if itâs the former, then Iâd be more than willing to play the part of the loyal servant and wait on your
hand and foot, but if itâs the latter, then my presence here would put us all in a sticky situation, donât you
think?â She wanted to go home desperately, so she enunciated the point of her argument, âYoung Master
Weiss, all Iâm asking is that you give me some time off.
His dark eyes were like a tempestuous ocean. He looked torn, but in the end, he gritted his teeth and
shot her a warning
glare. âDo not even think about leaving my side, Sophia.â
Her breath hitched. Why does that sound like a line from a romance novel? He had no right to order her
to stay in such a roguish manner, she thought. She was only his maid, after all, and not his girlfriend.
Belligerent, she retorted, âI wasnât planning on leaving!â
He glowered at her exasperatedly. It seems like there is still a long way to go before she will learn to be
obedient.
Meanwhile, over at the Averna airport, a private jet had come to a stop on the tarmac, and an elegantly-
dressed young lady was presently being escorted out of the jet by four bodyguards.
She walked out of the airport and put a hand up to block out the blazing afternoon sun. As she suddenly
thought of something, a smile blossomed on her beautiful face.
âMiss, weâve already contacted Young Master Weissâ bodyguards, and they have sent us an address.â
