Night of Destiny ( Anastasia Tillman )
Chapter 753

Chapter 753

Arthur walked over to the direction of the couch and sat next to her. His strapping tall figure further

accentuated Sophia‘s petiteness.

She caught a whiff of his distinct scent in the air; in the past, he had a cold, elegant fragrance of cedar

on him which contrasted his scent right now–the crisp but pure aroma of shower gel. On top of that, the

masculinity radiating off of him was captivating

Sophia silently took a gulp and lifted her head to look at the man with wet dark dripping hair who was

currently right in front of her. His translucent forehead was revealed and paired with his perfectly

sculpted features, making him utterly irresistible.

She squirmed slightly and purposely inched closer to him. As such, she could conveniently lie in his

arms and take a rest as she watched the TV shows later on.

Arthur‘s dazzling eyes flickered slightly and he astutely realized that she was inching closer to him. He

kept his eyes on the television, but he naturally took her into his arms.

Sophia instantly leaned half of her body into his arms as her heart thudded hard. She buried her face

into his arms and snuggled against him as she took in the feeling of her head on his firm chest. She felt

a rush of comfort and safety at that moment.

Neither of them spoke a word and they remained snuggled against each other quite naturally and

continued to watch some TV shows.

To Arthur, he did not care much about the plot of the show. The most important thing was that he

enjoyed this moment and his heart was rippled with content.

At that moment, the scene on the TV show depicted a romantic scene between the male and female

lead, which happened to be quite an explicit one too.

The male and female lead stood under a dim street lamp and they were deep in embrace as they

kissed passionately.

She reached out to grab the remote control to skip the scene, but she realized that it was by his side.

“Hey, hand me the remote control,” she said.

He saw through her intention, so he refused to hand over the remote control. At the same time, he

focused his dark eyes intently on her.

At that, she blushed from his focused gaze at her. Then, he used his warm palm to gently grasp and

maneuver her chin. She knew what this entailed, so she quickly shut her eyes.

He smiled at the anxious sight of the girl in his arms as her eyelashes fluttered.

Knowing exactly how she would react next, he purposely planted a kiss on her forehead. She waited

until she no longer felt his lips on her forehead before opening her eyes slightly to peek. At that

moment, his dominating lips landed on her red lips and she instantly felt her heart race. He‘s so good at

such flirtatious behavior!

Undeniably though, the kiss was full of passion and she was satisfied.

He kissed her so dominantly and passionately without any hint of aggression; it was pure and clean.

Sophia found herself limp in his arms after his kiss. Meanwhile, Arthur rose to his feet and went to the

bathroom as he needed to take a shower–a cold shower.

On the other hand, she went back into her room and clutched at her chest as her heart thudded

frantically. She knew that Arthur was a gentleman, so he would not resort to any hanky–panky.

However, it was herself that she was afraid of. She was worried that she would someday replace him

irresistible and pounce on him.

Fortunately, Arthur knocked on the door to bid goodnight to her before heading into his room.

Around 3.00PM at the airport, a private jet had just landed and Elliot escorted Lorelai, who had just

returned home, out of the airport to head directly to Presgrave Hospital

Along the way, Lorelai tried to negotiate with him and she hoped that Elliot would let her father off the

hook and forgive her family members. However, Elliot rejected her requests. Not only that, he

threatened that if she was to not undergo the surgery immediately, then her entire family would face a

much horrible fate in the future.

The lights to the operating theater were switched on and Lorelai shut her eyes tightly. At that moment,

there was a single drop of tear that fell from the side of her eye out of discontentment. The pain she felt

in her body plus the inner turmoil she experienced made her feel bleak.

Twenty minutes later in the resting area, Elliot glanced at Benedict, who had just pushed open the door

and walked in. There was a sparkle in Elliot‘s weary–looking eyes. “Is it completed?”

“Yes, the surgery has ended, so you can be at ease now.”

Elliot could finally heave a sigh of relief as he had finally got an outcome after tracking for information

and running around to handle matters for multiple days.

“Are you sure that you want to destroy it? Perhaps it may be useful in the future.”

“I‘m sure about that,” said Elliot with a firm look in his eyes. In the future, the fate of the Presgrave

Family would only be held in the hands of one particular woman. As such, there would be no other

ways to birth a successor.
