Chapter 671
“Your hands! How did you hurt your hands?” Emily let out a painful shriek when she saw the scrapes on Arthur‘s
hands.
Meanwhile. Sophia lowered her head. After all, he was only hurt because of her.
“It‘s nothing. We‘ll deal with it when we get back.” Arthur then led Emily back to the car. As she got in, she said,
“Artie, I want to ride in the same car as you.”
“I‘m covered with dirt,” he merely replied before closing the door in her face.
She then watched as he turned to the second car of the group and joined Sophia in her car. Her eyes were blazing
with rage. Was a simple maid better than her now?
They started on the journey back.
Sophia could not handle it any longer. Driving downhill was even more frightful than their ride up. She clutched
tightly to the handlebars in the car and looked away from the road ahead,
On the other hand, Arthur was as calm as one could be. He had the utmost faith in his bodyguards‘ driving skills.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOnce the cars were finally back on smooth, paved roads, they sped off toward the city like horses dashing through
the night.

It was dark outside by now. After an eventful day, Sophia was exhausted. Even though Arthur was sitting right
beside her, she could not help but fall asleep.
While she was dozing off, her head lolled to the side and leaned against his shoulder. Instead of pushing her away,
he just let her be.
She spent the entire journey back sleeping. By the time they arrived back at the mansion, it was around seven
o‘clock.
Someone gently patted her cheeks. “We‘re home, Sophia.”
She opened her eyes and blinked away her drowsiness. When she realized she had been sleeping against his
shoulder, she immediately sat up straight.
Goodness! Had she spent the entire journey sleeping on Arthur‘s shoulder?
Emily‘s two maids immediately came to greet them as they stepped through the doors.
Arthur instantly went up to his room for a shower. Sophia was about to do the same when Emily called out for her
to stop. Her sharp gaze scanned her. With the help of the room‘s lights, she could see the dirt and grass sticking to
Sophia‘s outfit. “Sophia, just how did Artie get hurt?” she suspiciously asked.
Sophia stared back, stunned.
“I will not be merciful if you lie to me,” Emily threatened.
“I was nearly bitten by a snake when we were at the peak, and I lost my balance. Young Master
Weiss fell down the side of the mountain with me as he wanted to protect me,” Sophia bluntly answered. She had
not planned to lie anyway.
Emily‘s eyes went wide. She could imagine exactly what had happened. Jealousy roared through her as she scoffed.
“Are you sure you did not intentionally lose your balance so that Artie would hold you in his arms and roll down the
mountain with you? You sure are doing a lot just to seduce him. You would do anything, wouldn‘t you?”
“I..” Just as Sophia was about to speak, Emily slapped her across the face and shouted, “The nerve of you to
assume you deserve Artie risking his life over. Take the slap as your warning.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSophia‘s head had turned away from the force of the slap. There was a loud humming noise, echoing in her ears.
However, she still managed to hear a man‘s voice barking out, “Stop it, Emily.”
Arthur had come back down when he heard the commotion. He moved to stand between them. “You are not
allowed to hit her.”
“Artie, she nearly killed you. It was just a lesson.” Emily did not think she did anything wrong. In her mind, Sophia
had to be reminded of her place,
A maid did not deserve to be protected by Arthur Weiss.
“Enough. You do not have the right to hit her,” he coldly said. He then turned around to look at Sophia. When he
saw the bright red mark on her skin, he frowned. “Head on upstairs and shower.”
Sophia moved to do as she was ordered. “Artie, do you know how worried I was about you?” Emily cried out, tears
in her eyes.
“You must be tired as well. Get some rest,” he said with a frown,
Emily sniffled, “You should have let her roll down the mountain by herself. You did not need to protect her. After all,
you are an important person!”
