“Next time, I’ll feed you to the sharks,” warned Arthur.
Sophia struggled to rise to her feet when her legs gave out, causing her body to collapse toward him: ‘Argh!”
With arms bugging his waist, her cold face rested on his bare chest, which was slightly exposed. It felt warm and sturdy.
Arthur was stunned momentarily at the
cold sensation on his chest before
shoving her. “I told you not to come close
to me, didn’t I?”
“My legs are numb. Can’t you even help me for a bit?’ gruntled Sophia as she tried to stand straight.
Will he even get a girlfriend in future? What kind of girl will like him when he’s so cold?
Arthur wheeled around and walked
inside the building with her at his heels. Once the door was closed, the coziness prodded her to have a warm bath right away, which she dic as her heart told.
After returning to her room on the second floor, she had a warm shower before going to bed. Meanwhile, the man in the master room was finally feeling drowsy and drifted into a slumber, as though he had undone the knot in hist heart.
On the other hand, Katrina couldn’t sleep a wink due to the excitement, for she had never once attended such a grandiose wedding. Everyone would agree that the service provided on the island was top notch.
She posted a few clips on her social media account and received the public’s attention. Even the press, which had given several vain attempts to pry Elliot’s wedding, shared her videos.
Anastasia was nonplussed by the reproach that was laced by a strong resentment.
Then, Harriet’s voice resounded. ‘Henry, rules are rules. These are the family rules that we must follow no matter what.”
“Harriet, you know how hardworking my: son is. All we need is a chance, a chance to be one of the board directors of Presgrave Group. We’re not asking much.. Just a small share of it is enough
“Henry, as the family rules has stated, the men in the family can never be one of the company. We can help with anything else other than that.”
“So what if we work hard when we can’t even enjoy one bit of the money Elliot has earned?”
“Elliot has been doing his best to help the family. You’re doing well on your own too. You should be grateful for what you have.”
“Hmph! Harriet, I know what you’re afraid of. You’re afraid that we’ll pose a threat to Elliot once we become stronger, aren’t you?
