“Sure, we‘ll do that.” Arthur didn‘t have a single problem with it. To him, it wasn‘t important who his wife was.
Martha, on the other hand, was now certain her grandson had broken up with Sophia. Perhaps he had also taken into consideration that she wasn‘t the
right person for him.
“Alright, if that‘s what you have decided on.”
With that, Martha walked away. Arthur looked out of the window at the night sky, then grabbed his phone with vexation and opened the photo album as
he thought his memory of recent events was blurry. It felt as though he had slept for a long time and had a vague dream, which was absolutely
unfathomable.
As soon as he opened the photo album, the picture of that mysterious young woman appeared again, and it wasn‘t just that picture. There were many
pictures of her from different angles and of her smiling, pouting, making faces, and even looking all innocent and adorable at the camera. Who had
secretly taken pictures of this woman using his phone?
Who is she? Why is she on my phone? Why is she reacting so naturally in front of the camera? Also, who used my phone to take pictures of her? It
dawned on him that he had no memory of any of it.
At that, he stared at this young woman while trying to recollect whatever encounters he had with her. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn‘t pull her
out from any of his memories.
Having said that, this young woman did catch his fancy, and her smile was really lovely.
As for her name, he really had no recollection of it, so he decided not to waste his time on this and
deleted the pictures. However, just as he was about to do so, a thought held him back.
He had a feeling these photos held a certain significance to him. Plus, they didn‘t take up much of his
phone storage, so he just left them as they were.
Meanwhile, Martha made a call after going downstairs, instructing all who served Arthur to never
mention Sophia in front of him ever again, lest the young man regretted his decision to marry Emily.
Drowsiness hit Arthur right then, and he fell asleep the second he hit the pillow. This actually had to do
with the spiked water he drank earlier, for it contained sedative substances.
By the time Arthur woke up, it was already noon the following day. As the succession ceremony was
set to be held in the afternoon, he was somewhat annoyed at himself when he
stirred. I can‘t believe I nearly missed the ceremony.
The Jennings had arrived at this time, and Johnny implicitly asked about Arthur. In the end, he and his
wife got a piece of exciting news.
Arthur had decided to marry their daughter and would even announce their engagement on this day.
Then, they would hold a wedding in a few days.
Naturally, Emily was the happiest to receive such news; little did she think that she would have the
chance to become the young mistress of the Weiss Family. Better yet, Arthur was the one who
requested to marry her.
The other guests who had arrived all congratulated her in advance. It didn‘t come as a surprise for
them that Emily could marry Arthur, for Johnny had made distinctive contributions to the Weiss Family‘s
biotech company.
Following the commencement of the succession ceremony in the afternoon, Arthur unsurprisingly
became the patriarch of the Weiss Family, and he now had the final say in everything. Meanwhile,
Martha decided to step down, leaving everything in Arthur‘s hands while she lived the rest of her life in
peace and quiet.
During the succession ceremony, Martha personally announced Emily to be Arthur‘s wife and that the
wedding would be held in a week‘s time.
“Ma‘am, should we notify everyone on the guest list?” the butler couldn‘t help asking in the hall.
“Yes. This is a huge celebration. Don‘t miss out on anyone. By the way, Artie has two close friends.
They must be notified.”
“Understood, ma‘am.”
Martha made sure that Elliot and Richard were notified of their best friend‘s wedding
Meanwhile, on the other side of the world, Elliot had just exited his office at 4.00PM to pick up his dear
wife down in Bourgeois when his phone rang. He took a gander to find it was an international call.
