“I can answer your previous question,” Arthur said suddenly, as though he was annoyed by her pestering.
When Sophia heard that, she felt a shudder run through her entire body. She let go of her hand and took a step back before turning her head to look at him and waiting for his answer.
Arthur then straightened his shirt as though he detested her for wrinkling it.
“What is the answer?” She fought the impulse to cry and instead asked him.
“Yes.”
“Yes, what?” she asked, upset.
“I thought you wanted me to say yes or no.” Arthur found her incredibly annoying.
“So, you never loved me, did you?” As soon as Sophia had finished her sentence, she reached inside her pocket and handed him the paper. “This is what you wrote to me, and I‘ll give it back to you.”
Arthur frowned as he looked at the letter that had been folded; then, he reached for it and held it in his hand.
“I promised not to bother you further; after all, our relationship began when you said it did and ended when you said it did. It‘s all over now.” Sophia stepped back as she finished talking but didn‘t notice the flower bed behind her.
“Ah…” She exclaimed a loud yell, staggered backward, and looked like she was about to fall on the flowerbed.
Instantly, a hand grabbed her wrist and pulled her back. As a result of being subjected to this force, the impact sent her into the man‘s warm embraces. Despite the iciness of his voice, his demeanor was as comforting as ever.
Arthur frowned when he looked down at the girl that was being held in her arms, thinking how careless she was. “Pay attention to where you‘re going,” he reminded her.
“I don‘t need you to save me. I did not ask you to save me.” Sophia shoved him away.
He had never felt his mind this messy before. This girl seemed to be able to mess up my emotions.
Helplessly, Arthur watched as Sophia turned around and picked a path to head off in. He then had to correct her, saying, “That‘s not the direction to go back to the guest room as you took the wrong way.” When she returned, she headed in a different way, and he watched her vanish into the bush.
Arthur was on the verge of leaving, but an unexplainable feeling flooded his heart, which caused him to become a bit concerned about her. He feared that she would continue to walk aimlessly or come into contact with some kind of danger.
After walking a few meters, Sophia was engulfed in sadness all of a sudden, making her unable to walk. While covering her face, she squatted down on the pathway beside the bushes and started sobbing while suppressing her voice.
However, she didn‘t realize that a few meters behind her, there was a person watching her. Arthur looked at the girl whose shoulders were trembling from her cries. He knew he was the reason she was in misery.
Why is she crying like this? Why does she think that I abandoned her?
He just stood there for as long as she was crying until his phone started ringing and frightened the crying Sophia. She quickly stood up and turned around, only to see that the man was still there. Seeing him there stunned her for a few seconds.
I thought he didn‘t care about me anymore. Why is he still following me?
Arthur looked at his phone, but he didn‘t pick it up. In fact, he hung up the phone and told her, “Stop crying and go back to your room!”
“Even if I cry, it‘s none of your business!” Sophia quipped out of annoyance.
“Your crying disturbed me,” he said ruthlessly.
Hearing that, she felt her body sway a little and nearly passed out from anger. Is this man really the Arthur that I know? He‘s even colder than strangers.
“Fine! I just need to cry further away, right?” As soon as she said that, she turned around and saw an exit, so she ran in that direction right away.
At this moment, Arthur remembered that that was the way to the pond, and there was no path there. Just as he wanted to stop her, she had already run away.
“So…” He suddenly realized that he had forgotten her name, so he could only run in the same direction as her.
Yet, before he could stop her, she jumped into the pond as expected, since she didn‘t know there was a pond behind the bushes.
“Ah!” she shouted fearfully as her body sank into the pond. The coldness of the water at night made her extremely frightened.
Just then, Arthur rushed over and took a deep breath. He looked at the girl, who had brought him so much trouble tonight, and felt speechless.
“Give me your hand.” He reached out his hand, wanting to pull her up.
However, Sophia took a step backward. “I don‘t need you to care about me. I can save
myself.”
As she said that, she tried hard to walk to the side and grab the stone steps beside it. trying to get herself out of the pond. Luckily, the pond was stone–paved, and there were only a few fancy fish, so it was really clean without any dirt.
When her foot stepped on the stone steps, she slipped and fell back into the pond since she didn‘t know that the stone steps were filled with moss. Now, her whole body sank into the pond.
The next second, Arthur jumped into the pond as well. He reached out his long arm and pulled the drowning girl up. Sophia was so terrified that she hugged him at his waist as if he was her savior.
“Why are you doing this to yourself?” he bellowed. After that, he carried her in his arms and walked in the opposite direction to the stairs.
At this moment, Sophia was stunned as she felt like the Arthur that she knew was back. She was happy even when he scolded her, for it was much better than the cold words he said to her
She looked like a mess when he put her down. Then, he pointed in a direction. “This is the way to the guest room. Don‘t use the wrong way again.”
“Can you send me back?” she asked.
“I‘m busy.” He needed to go back and take a shower as he was soaking wet too.
“What if I get lost again?” she pleaded.
“Are you a three–year–old kid?” You‘re a grown woman. Figure it out by yourself?
“You‘re not wrong. My mind is like a three–year–old. Are you sending me back or not?” she asked with her brows raised.
All of a sudden, a smile tugged on his lips as though Sophia had made him laugh. This was the only time someone made him laugh during this period of time. “Let‘s go.” He decided to send her back.
Sophia followed him and walked forward. But not long later, he pointed in a direction and told her, “Go there. There‘ll be a maid there to help you.”
“Are you not sending me back to my room?”
Arthur felt that Sophia was asking for too much, so he didn‘t comply. “If you‘re lost again, just simply find someone to bring you back to your room.”
“It‘s okay even if you don‘t remember me, Arthur. I‘ll always remember you. Even when you‘re married, you‘re still the man whom I love the most,” Sophia said seriously before turning around and leaving quickly.
At this moment, the man froze for a few seconds. He looked in her direction with his deep eyes and suddenly remembered something. Following that, he reached his hand into his shirt pocket, took out the paper that she gave him, and opened it.
It was his handwriting on it.
When he read the words on the paper, his brows knitted together. When did I write such loving words to a woman? But this is really my handwriting. When did I lose my memories of this girl?
