Chapter 793

“I guess that‘s not a bad thing either because you both belong in the same world while I‘m from another

world. I hope I can find my true love when I return and get married, like what my parents want me to do.

By then, both of us will carry on with our own lives.” Sophia bitterly smiled, her tears welling up in her

eyes as she tried to comfort herself. “It seems that you have forgotten me, but that‘s okay. I‘ll endure all

the pain by myself,” Sophia added.

“What do you think we are to each other, Sophia?” Arthur suddenly asked.

“It doesn‘t matter anymore. Congratulations on your wedding. I look forward to hearing good news

about your firstborn.” Sophia looked at the man sincerely, finally realizing that Emily wasn‘t lying to her.

I guess I was indeed in over my head for wanting to marry into the Weiss Family.

She then recalled Martha‘s words about the Weiss Family‘s wealth that far exceeded the level she

could ever imagine. For that, she was told that the man was out of her league, which was something

she finally understood at that moment. After all, Arthur was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, but

Sophia was just an ordinary lady from a modest family. I probably used up all my luck when I had the

chance to date him for a while. At the thought of that, she considered herself lucky to have ever been in

a relationship with Arthur.

“Let‘s go home.” Arthur took a look at the time and decided that they should make a move.

“You could go first. I want to lie down here for a little while more,” Sophia responded stubbornly. Deep

down, she fell in love with the beautiful scenery around her and was so enchanted that she was

reluctant to leave.

“This place is about 2 miles away from the manor, plus the fact that your leg is injured is only going to

make it even harder for you to walk back.” Arthur was actually thinking of giving her a ride back with his

horse.

Nevertheless, Sophia shook her head and replied, “It‘s okay. I don‘t have anything else better to do,

anyway. So, now is the perfect time for me to admire the beautiful view around your residence.”

After hearing the lady‘s words, he was tempted to save his breath on changing her mind but couldn‘t

bring himself to leave her there out of chivalry. “How much longer do you want to stay here?” Arthur

asked.

“Another half an hour more, I guess,” she said, fiddling with the flower in her hand.

Soon, Arthur returned to his horse and grabbed his water bottle to take a sip before passing it to her.

“Would you like to have some?”

After all the shouting and screaming, Sophia couldn‘t help but feel thirsty, so she stood up and began to

guzzle the water down her throat. Then, she returned the water bottle to Arthur, who said, “Alright, it‘s

time to make a move. Let‘s go.”

Meanwhile, Sophia realized her ankle was sprained only when she stood up, struggling to walk as she

limped. “How are we going to go back?”

“My horse is our only transport back, so of course, we‘re going to ride it back to where we came.”

Arthur approached the lady on his horse, asking, “Would you like to sit behind or in front of me?”

“I‘m going to sit behind you.” Sophia was traumatized to sit in the front.

Arthur then got onto his horse in a charming manner, whereupon he extended his hand to grab

Sophia‘s. Upon grabbing her palm, he pulled her up as she put her foot on the saddle‘s footrest and sat

on the horseback. As soon as the horse started moving, she immediately wrapped her arms around the

man‘s waist due to the sudden jerk from the burst of acceleration, her chest completely leaning on his

back.

At the same time, Arthur didn‘t spur his horse but instead rode it back slowly with Sophia, who was

seen with a blushed face behind him. Although the scent wafting from the man was no stranger to her,

she could still feel the thrill the first time she caught his scent.

Sitting behind the man, Sophia didn‘t hide the admiration in her eyes as she stared at the back of his

head. At the same time, she somehow felt safe and secure when she caught the familiar scent of the

man with her eyes fixed upon his firm back. Nevertheless, Arthur knitted his eyebrows just when she

tightened her arms around his waist.

At the same time, he squinted, feeling the lady‘s soft skin rubbing against his back as he somehow

seemed to feel turned on. In fact, Arthur had been abstaining from all pleasures of the flesh recently, as

he only cared about handling his work and marrying a wife. However, as he spent more time keeping to

himself in solitude without socializing with anyone else, he became temperamental and was easily

provoked by small mistakes his maids made.

Despite his respect for the elderly, Arthur kept his distance from them, including his grandmother.

Although he wanted to get closer to them, he simply couldn‘t bring himself to do that, as if something

was holding him back.
