“Sophia, what’s wrong with your eyes? Have you cried again?” Anastasia noticed that Sophia’s eyes were red.
Sophia lowered her head, a little embarrassed. “I tried very hard to control myself, but I still can’t control it.”
Tomorrow was Arthur’s wedding day. No one could bear to watch their loved one marry someone else, so Anastasia wondered if it was right to bring her here. However, she knew that Arthur’s wedding would not be successful, and Sophia was still very likely to continue her relationship with Arthur.
“Sophia, do you believe in fate? Sometimes fate favors kind and loving people. I believe that fate has its own arrangements for you, and it won’t make you feel so miserable all the time,” Anastasia comforted her.
Sophia smiled bitterly. “Anastasia, are you
trying to say that I can meet someone better?”
“Trust me, girl. Your destiny will turn for the better.” Anastasia reached out and gathered Sophia’s messy hair. Then, she added, “How does Young Master Weiss treat you?”
Sophia thought of her leaving him outside the door today and ignoring him. Presumably, he would be angry with her too!
“He’s been nice to me.”
Sophia was also keeping a secret. She didn’t tell Anastasia that she couldn’t go to the wedding tomorrow. In fact, as long as she told Anastasia, the latter would find a way to take her there.
The two chatted about some other topics as they strolled around the garden, and unknowingly they also established a kind of sister-like relationship.
Anastasia had experienced Hayley’s betrayal, which made her more cautious about making friends. Now, besides Felicia, Grace was the person she trusted. Now, there was Sophia, whom she cared for like a sister.
Since their partners were best friends, they naturally also would become best. friends.
A little later, Anastasia went back, and Sophia also went back to her room. She didn’t eat anything at noon, so she was hungry right now.
Arthur’s figure appeared in the hall, and the first thing he asked the servant was, “Has she eaten?”
“Miss Goodwin went out for a while, but she hasn’t eaten.” The servant was also helpless about it.
“Prepare dinner!” After Arthur finished. speaking, he thought of something and frowned. “Tell my grandma that I won’t go over to eat.”
“Okay, Young Master Weiss.” The servant left.
Arthur walked to Sophia’s door, reached out, and knocked on the door. Sophia thought it was a servant again, so she stretched out her hand to open the door. When the man was revealed outside the
door, it surprised her. However, the man’s long legs had already taken a step, and he had entered the room, not allowing her to close the door.
“I-Is there something you need?” Sophia asked in a panic.
“Are you immortal? You don’t need to eat?” Arthur stared at her angrily.
Sophia blinked and said hoarsely, “I-I’m not hungry.”
However, just after she finished speaking, her stomach seemed to let out a few protesting noises. In an instant, Sophia blushed and wanted to dig a hole to hide in the ground.
The corner of Arthur’s mouth twitched, and the smile growing on the corner of his mouth was the most intense expression he had shown in so many days.
He was smiling,
Sophia raised her head and glanced at him, only to find that he was smiling
handsomely, which made her bow her head in embarrassment.
“Join me for dinner, will you?” After Arthur finished speaking, he stretched out her hand to lead her out.
Seeing that, Sophia withdrew her hand in a panic. “I will go by myself.”
If she was seen by the servant, she would definitely be reported to Vera again. Therefore, she thought that Vera had come to see her because there was a spy among the servants.
However, Arthur’s grip was too tight, and she couldn’t break free, so she had to go to the dining room this way. Under the crystal lights, candles were lit, and the red roses in the vase were freshly cut in the garden in the afternoon, which made the air full of their intoxicating aroma.
Sophia’s thoughts were a little jammed. Why does this dinner look like a candlelight dinner that only lovers would have?
