Nonetheless, Arthur felt somewhat insecure with the lady‘s wiggling body right behind him, wondering what magic she had that made him feel aroused. Is she purposely trying to turnon? Sensing the feelings Sophia had for him, he couldn‘t help feeling annoyed, as he suspected she was doing that intentionally. “Sit still and quit moving.” He gave an order in a cold manner.
However, Sophia reckoned she could barely control herself because her legs were hanging freely in the air. If she didn‘t wrap her arms tightly around his waist, she could fall from the horseback anytime. “Thanks for having cto my rescue last night, Young Master Weiss.” Sophia tried to start a conversation with the man.

Sophia then pursed her lips and smiled, feeling glad that the man was himself because he always called her dumb when they were together. However, instead of showing her disgust, he used that as a reason to love her and show her all the care she needed. Therefore, now that Arthur still called her dumb, she couldnt help but wonder whether she was really as dim-witted as the man thought. “I have to admit that I'm dumb.” Sophia smiled in response.
“How did it feel for people like you as you grew up?” Arthur curiously looked at her.
In that instant, Sophia found those words somewhat familiar, as if he had asked her the squestion before.
She then smiled helplessly and replied, “I guess | didn‘t have a choice. | wasn’t dumb until I met you.” With his eyes looking forward, a smile flashed across Arthur's face as he wondered how she could shamelessly put the blon him for being dumb.
In the meantime, Emily was sipping a cup of coffee in the cafeteria at the turf club when the person in charge suddenly approached her and said, “Here you are, Miss Jennings. Are you here for shorse riding today?” “Nope. I'm only here to take a seat.” Emily went on to ask, “Is the turf club closed today?” “Oh. No, it's not. Instead, it was Young Master Weiss who ordered us not to let anyone else in.” “Why?” Emily asked in surprise.

He is actually on the turf.” When Emily heard that, she nearly spilled the coffee in her hand, appearing surprised. “What did you say?! Young Master Weiss is on the turf?!” “Yes, he is. In fact, he's been there since this morning until now, and it's been almost 2 hours.” Upon hearing that answer, Emily bit her lip in a panicky manner and said, “I have a friend who just went for a horse ride. Hurry up and send someone to fetch her back. She is not too good with horse riding.” Deep down, she was praying hard for Sophia not to run into Arthur, knowing she would be blamed if anything happened to Sophia.
“Alright, I'll send someone to get your friend right now.” The person in charge replied, shifting his eyes to the window before he noticed a familiar figure. “Wait a minute. It's Young Master Weiss. He is back, and there is a lady sitting behind him. Is that your friend?” On the other hand, Emily was glaring at the lady right behind Arthur intimidatingly, realizing it was none other than Sophia. Damn it! | can’t believe | just created an opportunity for Sophia and Arthur! She angrily stomped off and exited the cafeteria, making her way toward Arthur. “You‘re back, Artie.” Emily greeted Arthur, as if nothing had ever happened.
As soon as Arthur got off the horse, the groom ccloser and held the lead line around the horse's head to keep it still, whereupon he reached out his arms to carry Sophia off the horseback. When her feet touched the ground, she hissed in pain, stunning Arthur, who quickly carried her in his arms again. At the stime, he looked at the person in charge and said, “Get the driver ready. Her leg is injured.” “You said you wanted to try shorse riding, Miss Goodwin. So, how was it?” Emily gave Sophia an evil eye in a hostile manner, wanting to make the latter admit that it was her own mistake to ride the horse unsupervised, which had nothing to do with her.
In the meantime, Sophia knew what Emily was implying, but despite her rage, she couldn’t dispute the fact that Emily was the one who was about to becArthur’s wife. In order to protect Arthur's reputation, she answered, “| fell down from the horse myself and got hurt, but don’t worry about me, Miss Jennings. Ill live.” “Artie, | could tell Henry to take Miss Goodwin hwhile | go on a horse ride with you,” Emily said, feeling jealous at the sight of their arms around each other‘s waist and neck.
