Sophia was certain that besides the memory loss that he experienced, his old self was back. She then
turned around, looked up at his attractive face, and tiptoed before leaning in to peck on his cheek.
“Thank you for choosing me.” She looked at him with affection. He had saved her from the agonizing
heartache that she would go through if he married Emily in the end.
She wouldn’t know what would happen if she had lost him as she saw him as someone very important
to her, so much so that he was more important than her own life.
Hearing that, he realized that he held an
important place in her heart and that he
was a very important person in her life. If he really did marry Emily under the influence of the drug, he
couldn’t imagine what would happen to Sophia.

heart. He would make sure that the Jennings family paid for hurting the woman he loved.
Arthur then pulled her into his arms and rested his cheeks on her forehead. “Although you have been
wiped off from my memories, my heart and body haven’t forgotten you. All of my senses tell me I like
you and that you’re the only one I want.”
Hearing that, tears rolled out her cheeks and she was relieved that she had taken the trip. If not, they
would have missed out on each other. She felt like the heavens were on their side.
“I’m sorry.” He looked down and wiped her tears off with his hand before holding her face and going in
for a kiss.
Sophia, her face wet with tears, could feel his affectionate kiss. It had calmed her heart as she knew
that her happiness was right in front of her and all she had to do was to grab on to it.
Meanwhile, in the guest room, both Richard and Elliot were relieved that the truth had been revealed
and that they were able to rescue Arthur from the dangers posed by the drug.
If not for their keen perception, it would have gone unnoticed. It was evident when Martha, who had
been living with Arthur for so long, didn’t find it odd even when he wasn’t as close to her anymore. On
top of that, all of the staff within the manor didn’t think otherwise when Arthur started becoming cold
and distant.
On the contrary, Richard and Elliot could tell that something wasn’t right from just a phone call. It was
probably due to their strong bond that they could sniff something out whenever something happened to
any one of them.
“Please dress more formally at tonight’s banquet with Old Madam,” Elliot reminded him as Richard had

after taking off the suit that he wore in
the morning.
“I’ll change into the suit later on. It’s so uncomfortable,” answered Richard while complaining.
After Elliot looked at the time, he got up and said, “I’ll go accompany Anastasia now.” He left right after
that.
Richard then walked toward the window and looked outside with his head held high. The afternoon sun
peeked through the clouds and shone on his attractive face. Since he had spent most of this time in the
army, he had been trained to be an elite soldier who didn’t indulge himself in lust. He was born to lead
on the battleground as it was his passion in life.
Just then, his phone rang. “Hello?” he answered.
“Captain, when are you coming back? I have something to report to you.”
“What is it?”
