Chapter 815
Night of Destiny
Sophia closed her eyes and took a deep breath before looking back up, asking Arthur, âDo your words
just now still stand? Will you really be able to do it if I say yes?â
Arthurâs eyes widened slightly in response, and he swung his hand free from Emilyâs grasp, dashing to
the bed to check Sophiaâs face.
But Sophia couldnât care less about her face right then. She latched her gaze upon Arthur with misty and
firm forbearing eyes.
âWhat are you talking about, Sophia?! What promise do you want Artie to fulfill?â Emily asked out of
curiosity as she stomached her anger.
âYour faceâ¦â
âIgnore that. Answer me, still stand?â do your words
âThey stand.â Arthur riveted his gaze on her.
âAlright, you have my word. Iâll break up with my boyfriend, and youâll have to give up marrying this
woman.â Sophia pointed right at Emily. âSheâs not worthy of you.â
Emily instantly turned crimson with rage. She finally lost it and snapped at Sophia. âWhat nonsense are
you talking about, Goodwin?! How dare you say Iâm unworthy of Artie!â
âHow dare I? Youâre phony, savage, ill bred, and wicked. I wonât let you marry him and taint his life. You
donât deserve him.â As feeble as Sophia was, her words weighted multitudes, hitting home.
Arthur was stumped for a few solid seconds, listening to her words with incredulity. âYouâre the one who
slapped her?â He turned his head to Emily.
Frightened, Emily took a couple of steps back upon meeting Arthurâs sub-zero gaze. âArtie, I⦠I didnât
mean to. I was just so upset she ruined our weddingâ¦â
âWho are your to slap her?!â The anger beneath Arthurâs eyes burned ablaze.
This was the first time in many days that Emily was seeing such an emotional Arthur. In fact, his
emotions fluctuated all because of Sophia, and she couldnât help feeling appalled at that. Impossible!
Dadâs serum had long made him forget Sophia! How can he still care so much for that b*tch?! Also, isnât
he suffering from sequela?
âArtie, Iâm sorry. Iâll apologize to her. Letâs go to the chapel now! Everyone must be anxious by now.â
Emily reached her hand out to hold his arm.
However, upon meeting his icy glare, she shrunk in fear and took a step back, causing her to trip and fall
upon stepping on the hem of her gown.
Emily made herself look pitiful by holding her waist and crying out in pain, hoping Arthur would feel bad
for her and help her up.
However, to her dismay, the manâs whole attention was on Sophiaâs face. His heart ached to see her
gorgeous face swollen.
Itâs all my fault. Emily wouldnât have had the chance to lay a finger on Sophia if he had stayed..
Sophia, on the other hand, looked indifferently at the pretentious woman on the floor, wondering how
long she was going to continue her act.
Sure enough, Emily was done acting, after which she propped her hands against the floor to stand up.
After a quick fix on her gown, she turned to Arthur. âArtie, Iâm sorry, I really am.â With that, she took a
deep breath and said to Sophia, âMiss Goodwin, please accept my utmost sincere apology. Please
forgive my rudeness.â
âBut I donât want to forgive you.â Sophia glared at her. What she hated wasnât the slap Emily had given to
her face but this womanâs pretentiousness in front of Arthur.
If Arthur was to marry a gracious young woman on this day, she would be willing to give them her
blessing. However, be it upbringing or integrity, neither did Emily have to be worthy of him. So Sophia
didnât care, even if she became the villain who ruined their wedding.
She couldnât let the man she loved so deeply spend the rest of his life with a woman like Emily. He
definitely wouldnât be happy.
âWhat else do you want from me, Sophia Goodwin? Just how shameless can you get? Artieâs my fiancé;
thatâs a fact!â Emily had truly lost it this time. She could no longer get a hold of her emotions, even when
Arthur was present.
