Chapter 657

“Let’s go then,” she said. She couldn’t wait to see him again.

Moments later, three cabs pulled up outside Arthur’s newly-bought villa, and an entourage came out of

the idling cars. The girl leading the entourage through the front yard gave the garden a cursory glance,

then marched straight through the door and into the living room.

She thought she would be greeted by the man who had been running around in her mind as soon as she

walked past the threshold, but she met eyes with a young lady instead. Astonished, she demanded,

“Who are you?”

“Good afternoon, Miss Jennings. I’m Sophia, Young Master Weiss’ maid,” Sophia introduced herself

politely, appraising the other girl with the expensive clothes and deciding that she most definitely ran in

the same circles as Arthur.

The girl narrowed her eyes, but when she saw Arthur coming down the stairs, she

broke into a dazzling grin and called out sweetly, “Artie!”

Arthur returned her friendliness and greeted, “Emily.”

“Grandma had me come over to take care of you.” Emily walked up to him and grabbed his arm

affectionately, then tipped her head to one side as she gave him a once-over. “Did you lose weight,

Artie?”

“I did not,” he denied with a smirk.

She let out a crisp and alluring laugh and glanced over at Sophia who still stood by the threshold. She

thereafter asked Arthur unhappily, “Is she really your maid, Artie?”

“Yeah,” he answered. “She takes care of my meals and tidies up the house.”

Sophia, on the other hand, concluded that Emily was without a doubt Arthur’s ‘special’ friend.

At that moment, two maids came into the house with suitcases in tow, Emily’s eyes

gleamed diabolically at the sight of this, and she quickly said to them, “You girls must be tired. Go and

stay at a hotel nearby to catch up on some well deserved rest.”

The maids were used to waiting on her, and upon hearing this, they immediately sensed that she was up

to something.

Sure enough, Emily suddenly extended a long, slender finger as she said imperiously, “You there! Help

me carry these bags up to my room.”

Sophia did a double take when she saw that Emily was pointing at her.

At the sight of Sophia’s dazed expression, Emily snapped impatiently, “You’re a maid, aren’t you?”

It was then that Sophia remembered Arthur asking her to act like a well behaved servant, so she quickly

answered, “Oh, of course. I’ll have these bags brought into your room right away!”

She proceeded to drag the two mammoth bags toward the stairwell, but when she tried to lift them, she

realized they were firmly weighed down on the floor. Those two maids who came with Emily must come

from professional weightlifting backgrounds! Sophia thought in dark amusement as her slender arms

faltered.

Emily crossed her arms as she watched Sophia struggle to lift the bags. “Be careful with those. I have

tons of valuable

stuff in there; you break them, you pay, but I doubt you could afford it.”

Several attempts later, Sophia was sure that she had no way of lifting them.
