Chapter 804

The servants fixed up a hearty candlelight dinner and had served up the feast in advance. 

As Arthur chewed gracefully, he latched his gaze on the young woman sitting across from her as though to make sure she ate everything on her plate. 

Famished, Sophia couldn‘t care less anymore and ate away. 

Martha had already informed Arthur to join her for dinner earlier in the afternoon. It would be his wedding day the next day, so she wanted to have a serious word with him. But who‘d have thought her beloved grandson rejected her? The news got her down in the dumps. Moreover, Arthur had gotten distant from her, making her reflect that she had been too strict on him normally. 

“Is he having dinner with Emily?” Martha asked a servant. 

For fear of upsetting Martha, the servants kept Sophia‘s presence unknown to Martha all this while. But now, seeing how upset Martha was, she couldn‘t help lowering her head and reported, “Young Master Weiss is having dinner with another lady, Old Madam Weiss.” 

“What?” The news shocked Martha for a moment. “He‘s having dinner with another woman? Which family is she from?”
