Night of Destiny ( Anastasia Tillman )
Chapter 699

Chapter 699

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.

He was dressed in all black and had an aura of distance to him while Sophia went ahead to light up a

candle at the front of the altar. When she emerged, she saw him standing next to the door in his slim

and graceful height, which gave rise to a thrilling beauty.
