Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 787

“What’s wrong with you? Don’t you feel anything?” Richard asked him.

With a smirk, Arthur answered, “I think something is wrong with you, not me.”

“What’s wrong with me?” Richard asked him again.

“You’re a busybody like someone’s mother,” Arthur rebuked him.

Hearing that, Richard looked at him resignedly. “That’s because you ditched us.

“Whatever.” Arthur turned around and left after saying that.

Then, Elliot came over and patted Richard, who was feeling hurt. “There’s really something wrong with Arthur. We should look into this.”

“I looked into his schedule and saw that he’d met a biology professor, Johnny, the day after coming back. However, I still haven’t found a chance to meet him yet. I’m sure something is wrong there.”

“Okay, we can start looking into it. We need to be extra careful in Weiss’ territory, though. It’s not our place, so don’t let them have anything on us.”

“I know. Let’s look into it together.” Richard felt better after knowing that he had someone on his side.

On the other hand, Sophia promised Anastasia to not simply go anywhere at night. She didn’t simply go anywhere either and merely strolled in the garden downstairs. If she didn’t come out to give herself some air, she felt that she would go insane in no time.

As she was strolling, her gaze landed in her opposite direction. Lights were shining blindly, and the person she loved the most was standing there. Even though they were not separated by mountains or seas, but only by a garden, it was a gully that she found difficult to cross. He was

right there, but she couldn’t touch him.

Sophia was engulfed in sadness as she had her head down the entire time and was walking absent-mindedly. After walking for quite some time, she raised

her head and was immediately stunned. Where am I?

Just then, she heard a cold voice of a man coming from the side. “Why are you crying?”

Startled, she lifted her head sharply and saw a man standing in front of her under the moonlight. Although the moonlight was behind him, she could still recognize this figure that she was extremely familiar with. Regardless of his cold tone just now, he was still the person whom she loved the most.

“Arthur…” Sophia said happily and dashed toward him desperately. After running into his arms, she hugged his waist tightly.

Arthur didn’t have the chance to reject her, and the woman had wrapped her arms around his waist tightly. In fact, she was wiping her tears on his shirt.

“Let go.” He reached out his hand to pull her tightened fingers on him.

Instead of letting go, she hugged him even tighter until a cold voice came from above her head, asking her, “Who are you? Why are you hugging me?”

At this moment, she lifted her head from his chest. Her big, teary-eyed eyes looked at him pitifully under the moonlight.
