Suddenly, a thump echoed in the room. As Sophia tried to stand up, she bumped her forehead into the table.
Arthur stared at her with wide eyes from the doorway. He found her holding a cleaning rag in her hand, while another hand was pressed to her forehead.
“What are you doing?” That was all he could manage to ask.
I’m cleaning the table, Sophia answered meekly.
Taking in mind her eagerness, Arthur walked toward her and took a close look at her forehead. There was a bump on the spot where she hit hard on the table..
“You should use a cold compress.”
“I’m alright.” Sophia didn’t mind the pain. However, just when she was about to continue the chore, Arthur put an arm around her waist. Shocked, she quickly leaned backward, but he seized the opportunity and pressed her against the table.
“You just can’t wait to repay me?’ he teased and closed in.
Before her were a pair of eyes as black as night and cold as stone. They were clear but full of mystery. Sophia felt pressure alone just by looking at Arthur.
Her lips slightly parted in disbelief because she had always thought that the man was cold and distant from the moment she first met him. However, right this moment, he was standing so close to her underneath the afternoon.
sun.
“I-I do think about repaying you… Sophia spoke with hesitation.
“Then you shall do it as I prefer,” he demanded. There was a sudden urge building inside him to taste her lips. again. Since he kissed her out of the blue in the hotel yesterday, the thought had started to linger on his mind. He had at need to confirm his thoughts, so he simply had to taste the sweetness on her supple lips. Without further hesitation, Arthur wasted no time and went in for a kiss on her lips.
W-What? His bold actions made Sophia’s mind go blank.
Did he just kiss me again?
Her lean body was soft under his touch. The feeling of their bodies pressed against each other on the table sent at tremor through Arthur’s body, making him feel hot and bothered. The kiss lasted for a long time, as he did it again and again, to prove he was right.
Passion filled the study room.
With her eyes shut, Sophia responded to him eagerly. He was forceful one moment and gentle the next, and she was surprised to feel happy from his actions as if they were in love.
Finally, Arthur broke the kiss and pulled himself away. It was a cue to Sophia as she took to her heels almost immediately. However, passion lingered in the study room, like a reminder to everyone that they had just shared an intimate moment.
Sophia gasped as she returned to the room like a frightened white rabbit. As she covered her red lips, all she could think of was the man’s cool yet domineering kisses, which was way beyond her acceptable limit.
The impression that Arthur gave her was one of abstinence-or was it her illusion? He even mentioned earlier that he wanted to repay her through his own methods, so she suspected that he meant her giving herself to him.
He stood in front of the window walls with one hand in his pocket. Dressed in a black attire from head to toe, he carried with him a tough posture while his gaze reflected the facial expression of his cold handsome face. It also did not help that his breath had become a tad bit unstable. I’m having feelings for Sophia? What the hell is going on?!
His thoughts were proven earlier when everything was spilled out on his desk.
Emily returned from her gallivanting outside as today was yet another shopping spree for her. Behind her was a servant who entered with the items that Emily had purchased.
“All of you should head downstairs!”
The said servant left the items and departed while Emily raised her head to call, “Sophia.”
Sophia pushed open the door to make her presence known and responded from upstairs, “Miss Jennings.” “Come down and help me to tidy up.”
Emily instructed as she sat with crossed legs.
After Sophia came downstairs, Emily asked her to remove the items from their bags to organize them. Then, Emily announced the price of each item that Sophia took out.
“This is a limited edition pair of high heels with a value of a hundred and eighty. Please be careful with it.”
“This pair of silk pajamas cost me ninety thousand. Even a single thread cannot be damaged.”
“This purse has a purchase price of 1.8 million. You won’t be able to compensate me if you damage it.
Sophia was speechless upon hearing Emily’s words. She could never agree with Emily’s concept of consumption. Obviously she was not jealous of Emily either because she was aware that Emily could use shopping as a way to pass her time.
“Artic, do you think that the dress I bought would look good on me?” Emily took a skirt and compared it to her physique.
Arthur’s hand was on the banister as he stared at the girl bending over to arrange the shopping haul. When Sophia heard footsteps behind her. she was so frightened that she dropped the bag on the floor and collapsed.
Emily was shocked when she saw the scene before her and blurted out, “You had the nerve to drop the most expensive bag?!”
“I’m sorry,” Sophia apologized quickly.
His long legs walked toward Sophia and he ordered thereafter, “Come out with me.
“Now?!” She lacked the courage to look
Arthur in the eye.
“Yes!”
The man left first, after which she informed Emily, “Miss Jennings, let me head out with Young Master Weiss first.”
“Artie, where are you going? Let me accompany you there!” Emily said as she hurriedly followed.
Since Arthur did not allow his bodyguard to drive the car, he slid into the driver seat of an SUV and informed the bodyguard not to tag along.
The bodyguard immediately replied, “Master, we need to ensure your safety.”
Arthur insisted, “You are not to come along.
Sophia sat in the passenger seat as he drove away from the gates of the villa. “Young Master Weiss, where are we going?” she asked in curiosity.
“Let’s go to a place where we can clear our minds.
“Clear our minds?” She thought about it and asked, “How about a church?”
He maintained his focus on the road ahead of him as he answered, “That works.”
After punching the address on his navigation system, she couldn’t help but feel restless. She couldn’t ignore the fact that whatever happened between them earlier in the study was a fact! She secretly shot a gander at the man who was behind the wheel and admired his pursed thin lips, his sexy and handsome features while such an action had caused her heart to race.
It was so quiet in the vehicle that Sophia could hear the sound of her heart beating.
Arthur, on the other hand, remained reticent throughout the entire journey. It was already 3.00PM and would take them more than an hour to arrive at the church. By the time they arrived, the mid-afternoon prayer session would have been concluded and the parishioners leaving church grounds, thus the surroundings would be quiet.
As the sun was starting to set, it illuminated the historical place of worship with a kind of serene beauty.
