Katrina had originally intended to take the chance to flirt with the insanely handsguy next to her, but the cold aura that he exuded made her back off.

On the other hand, she noticed that the man had his eyes intently on the girl in the red dress, and there was a complicated look in his eyes. Just then, he stood up and strode toward that girl.

Sophia was nearly about to put her hand into Jacob's palm when, all of a sudden, her half-outstretched hand was forcefully grabbed hold of by someone, and a cold male voice rang out, “I'm her dance partner.” Surprised, Sophia turned around. Arthur? What's he doing here? Jacob was stunned at that point. After all, his prey was snatched from in front of him, so clearly, he was feeling quite unhappy about that.

“Sir, | heard from Sophia that you're not her boyfriend. She has promised to dance with me.” Jacob maintained his graciousness as he spoke up.

“Yes, that’s right. I'm not her boyfriend, indeed. I'm her master and she’s my servant.” Arthur curled his lips into a smile, and he wrapped his other hand around her waist domineeringly as he maintained a typical dancing stance.

Meanwhile, Sophia’s face flushed red as she thought, Can he not mention to the crowd that I'm his servant?! This is so embarrassing.

Jacob instantly turned to look at Sophia and spoke up for her bravely, “Sophia, did he threaten you? Don’t worry. I'll protect you.

You just have to letknow what he has done to you.” Frankly, Sophia didn’t wish for Jacob to up stand for her at the moment, so she smiled awkwardly, “Jacob, thanks for the offer. | promised to be his servant for one year. We...” Before she could finish her sentence, suddenly, she felt pressure from the hand around her waist, and she found herself falling into Arthur's arms. Their bodies were tightly pressed against each other.

Sophia's heart thudded frantically, and she could smell a slight woody scent in her nostrils. The crisp and fresh smell was enchanting.

“Focus on the dance,” Arthur warned her. Subsequently, he stretched out his hand and lifted the other hand as Sophia was treated like a little puppet while he exerted force. He manipulated her as she twirled around the original spot before ending up back in his arms.

Instantly after that, he leaned forward.

At that point, their faces were so close to each other that their breaths becconnected.

Sophia's face was as red as a tomato by then, and she thought, Isn't he always so high and mighty? Didn't he say he wasn't interested in my ordinary looks? What's going on right now? Arthur's breath hitched slightly, and he suddenly found her face quite pretty at such a close look.

She had flawless skin; her red lips were juicy and very attractive; and her huge eyes shone brightly as the lit-up chandelier reflected in them. Her eyes resembled a million stars in the night sky.

As for Sophia, she becout of breath upon being in such close proximity to his handsface.

He wrapped his arms around her, but she panicked, and her dance steps becflustered. “I don’t want to continue the dance.” She struggled to get out of his arms as she retreated at the stime.

Coincidentally, another male guest bumped into her, and she was once again shoved by external force into Arthur's arms. At the stime, she had her arms outstretched, and she hugged his waist. Her current action was typically the move one made to jump into another person’s arms, so she found herself in quite an awkward position.

She found herself on the brink of losing her mind, and she suddenly found herself feeling quite dizzy. For a moment there, she forgot to let go of him.

By himself, Jacob, who was watching them by the side, felt a burst of jealousy within him.

“Is the hug enjoyable for you?” Arthur asked in a low voice.

“Uhh! I'm sorry for that. | didn’t mean to impose on you.” She sprang aside instantly upon saying that, and she covered her face before rushing to the couch at the side.

Her face was flushed a bright red right to the tip of her ears. She had been brought up strictly and her family had been extremely protective. Other than the brief one-sided love she experienced in high school, she hadn't actually entered into a proper relationship up till now at her current age of twenty-three.

As such, Arthur's earlier move was actually the most intimate moment she had had with a man in her entire life.

Meanwhile, Arthur had just turned around when another girl cup to him bravely and asked, in a shy voice, “Sir, would you joinfor the next dance?” He calmly rejected her, “I'm not interested.” He didn’t even bother to cast his eyes on her as he focused his deep eyes on the girl sitting on the couch.

Unbeknownst to him, that girl he rejected took a huge blow from the rejection. She had actually had her eyes on him the moment he entered the banquet hall. She had mustered up all of her courage to go up to him and speak to him. However, she received a merciless rejection from him in return.
