Chapter 756

Sophia was just about to have her breakfast when she suddenly heard the door to the guest room
being pushed open. Frightened, she rushed over and thought, Why
didn‘t Arthur lock the door from the inside?!

“Mom. Mom…” She rushed toward the entrance of the guest room and noticed that the room was neat
and tidy while Arthur was nowhere to be found. She could not help glancing toward the wardrobe and
was stunned to find that the wardrobe door the side that could fit a person inside–was actually ajar.

“Ah!” Sophia revealed an astonished yelp all of a sudden and Emma, who was by the side, was startled
by that. Emma turned around to look at Sophia. “Why did you yell like that?”

Sophia glanced toward the window with an extremely horrified expression and the only large window
panel that could be opened was currently wide open. She knew that there was a slight path that led to
the corridor and that was the spot where the air–conditioning unit was hung on.

Did he actually... Sophia gasped out of
fright. Please tell me that he did not just climb out of the window! We‘re on the eighteenth floor!!!

At this point, she hurriedly headed toward Emma. “Mom, I need to go out.”

As soon as she finished her sentence, she yanked open the front door and stepped out as her heart
thudded frantically. She felt as if her heart was about to stop beating any moment
now. He‘d better be safe!

She frantically rushed out to the corridor and suddenly, she saw that Arthur was standing lazily at the
corner of the corřidor as he waited for her.

“Y–You‘ve given me such a fright! How could you climb out of the window just like that?!” Sophia‘s eyes
were reddened from the fright she received and she reached out to punch him.



Although it was just a light punch, it was a clear indication of the extent of her anxiety and terror. Arthur
was stunned as he did not expect that she would be so frightened by that.

He grabbed her into his arms immediately and apologized in a low voice, “I‘m sorry.”

Sophia was trembling slightly in his arms; as soon as she realized that he had climbed out of the
window, her heart nearly stopped and she was hit by a wave of fear that she was going to lose him.

“I would rather my mom find out about you than to have you do such a dangerous

thing again!” She lifted her head and uttered.

Arthur ruffled her hair and smiled. “That‘s alright. I‘ll find another chance to meet your parents next
time. I‘m afraid that they‘ll explode if they see me right now.”

“Wait here for a moment. I‘ll bring you some clothes and send you to a hotel nearby.”

To that, Arthur nodded affirmatively. After all, he was currently just dressed in a pair of pajamas.

Sophia quickly went back inside and gathered some clothes for him. Meanwhile, Emma was busy in
the kitchen as she prepared a nourishing lunch for her daughter. Sophia quickly mentioned to Emma
that she was going out to see a friend and that she would be back very soon.

Emma then offered to invite Sophia‘s friend back for lunch and she grunted while heading out of the
door.

Subsequently, the couple made their way to the underground parking lot. She owned a tiny little car
and though it was not a luxurious one, it was a very convenient mode of transport for her.

Arthur entered the backseat and started to get changed. He removed his top and grabbed a white T–
shirt to put on. Following that, he changed into a pair of track pants.



After he was done changing, he took a seat in the front passenger seat; there was a distinctive strong
hormonal scent that belonged to him that hit Sophia‘s nostrils. At that point, she found her breathing
slightly hitched.

She turned and glanced at the man who had changed out of his pajamas. Even though he had on
ordinary clothes, he looked very handsome in them and the elegant air that he exuded was
unmissable. He was perfect even just from looking at the back of him.

“What‘s wrong?” Arthur noticed her staring at him in a daze and he curled his lips into a slight smile as
he glanced at her with a teasing and seducing look.

Needless to say, Sophia‘s heart was thudding hard and she realized that life had been great with this
man, except for the fact that her heart had constantly
pounded. Is this a good or bad thing? Is this a test to see how strong my heart is?

He suddenly pulled open the car door and alighted from the car before saying to her, “I‘ll drive.”

Then, her side of the car door was suddenly yanked open by him and she asked him in confusion,
“Why?”

“I‘m worried that you won‘t be able to concentrate on the road because of me.” Arthur was full of
confidence that his charm was definitely going to make her lose concentration.

Instantly, her pretty face flushed red despite knowing that he was speaking the truth.

As it was because of this very fact, she felt shyer than ever as she muttered a retort, “That‘s not true.”

However, she meekly positioned herself to the front passenger seat. Indeed, it was true that he had an
irresistible charm as she actually forgot to buckle her seatbelt upon taking her seat.
