Chapter 714
Night of Destiny
When Anastasia walked over, Elliot forced a smile. âCome with me to send this over to be stored. Iâll
come and pick it up in three days.â
Anastasia nodded lightly, and she turned to say to Sophia behind her, âSophia, you can go back in my
auntâs car first.â
After Brenda called Sophia away, Anastasia accompanied Elliot and temporarily stored the urn. When
the funeral was ready, they would send Harriet to her final resting place.
Meanwhile, Sophia remembered that her phone was still charging in the hospital halfway through the
car ride, so she got out of Brendaâs car and took a taxi directly to the hospital to pick it up. However,
when she arrived, she found that a nurse had put away her phone, but the nurse had clocked off and
the phone was kept in her locker, so she could only pick it up on the next day.
She sighed and called a taxi home. When she reached home, it was already half past six in the
evening. She was deep in thought while walking in the direction of her house when she felt someone
block her way all of a sudden.
âWait a minute, please, Miss Sophia.â
She jolted in surprise and lifted her head to see a middle-aged man with a stern expression. âWho are
you?â
âOld Madam Weiss wants to see you,â the man immediately replied.
Sophia immediately understood that the person he mentioned was Arthurâs grandmother. She couldnât
help but nervously ask, âIs Young Master Weiss there?â
âOld Madam Weiss is waiting for you. Please get in the car.â The man did not answer her question, but
opened the car door next to him in a threatening tone.
She took a deep breath, and could only follow him obediently. She had a hunch as to why Martha
wanted to see her.
The car was driven toward a quiet coffee shop. In a private room, she saw a luxurious old lady basked
under the light. The lady was kind and regal, making one afraid to act presumptuously in front of her.
âHello, Old Madam Weiss, Iâm Sophia.â She stood before the lady with her heart in her throat.
Martha raised her head and looked up and down at the girl in front of her. The girl was in her early
twenties, and her body was as clean as a piece of paper. Her face was pure and pleasant to look at,
and she had a bright yet quiet aura. Sure enough, her grandson had a good eye. This girl was indeed a
little different. Under Marthaâs gaze, Sophia could only hold her breath, not daring to look around, and
at the same time, she was extremely nervous.
âRelax, child, Iâm not a bad person. Iâm Arthurâs grandmother.â Martha flashed a tender smile.
Sophia raised her head, as if the atmosphere had immediately become a little friendlier with Marthaâs
smile.
âHave a seat. Letâs chat for a bit.â Martha gracefully held her teacup and said, âI heard that youâre close
with my grandson. Please forgive me for meeting you in this way.â
âNot at all. I hope you forgive me for any shortcomings that I have,â Sophia hurriedly replied.
âAre you familiar with my family?â Martha asked.
Sophia shook her head. âYoung Master Weiss has never told me about your family.â
However, she knew that they were not just anyone.
âYou look like a good girl at first glance. With your terms, you can marry a husband with a good family
background in the future. You can support him with all your heart and give birth to his children. That in
itself is a blissful life to lead.â
Sophia was a little dazed. She didnât understand what Martha meant.
Martha could tell that she didnât understand what she meant either. She sighed slightly and said, âIn this
world, we have to follow certain rules. If you donât have the ability to take off on your own, you have to
control your desires and try not to touch people or things that you canât handle. Otherwise, it is very
likely that you will break into pieces and hurt yourself.â
At last, Sophia understood her words. There was a pang in her heart as she pursed her lips and said,
âDonât worry, Old Madam Weiss, Iâm self-aware. I wonât disrupt your grandsonâs life.â
However, Martha was slightly surprised. She didnât expect Sophia to understand what she meant so
quickly.
âIn that case, do you know what you should do?â
Sophia pursed her red lips and nodded. âI know. Iâll leave him.â
