Chapter 670

“You‘re hurt!” Sophia hurriedly got off of Arthur. They were both covered in dirt and grass. 

The bodyguards leaped down to them, and two of them helped Arthur up to his feet. “Are you alright, sir?” 

He was feeling fine, other than the cut on his forehead that had been caused by a sharp tree branch and the various scrapes that littered his hands. 

“I‘m fine.” He dusted himself off before turning to look at her. “Did the snake bite you?” 

“No, it didn‘t.” She shook her head. Her face was still stark white from shock. 

As they climbed back up to the peak, her gaze remained fixed on him. Her heart was pounding. When they rolled down the side of the hill, he had wrapped an arm tightly around her waist while his other hand pressed her head against his chest. He had done it just to ensure she would not be injured. 

However, that meant he was unable to protect himself during the fall. 

Her blood was rushing. The high and mighty young master had actually risked himself to protect her. 

What if she had fallen off a high cliff instead? From how tightly he had wrapped himself around her, would he fall with her as well? 

The bodyguards pulled out a first–aid kit, then cleaned and dressed the bleeding cut on Arthur‘s forehead.
