“Arius, this is my turf,” Nicholas warned coldly. He couldn’t bear to lay a finger on Sophie, but he couldn’t say the same about Arius.

“Sophie, did you see that? He has the nerve to threaten me!” Arius immediately went over to sit on Sophie’s bed.

She shot a look at Arius.

Can’t Arius read the room? Nicholas is a lunatic. There’s no telling what he’ll do if Arius gets him all riled up.

“Get a good rest. Just tell me if you need anything,” Nicholas said before leaving the room.

“Sophie, are you all right? Did he do anything to you?” Arius was a reckless man, but he cared a lot about Sophie.

“Don’t worry. I’m all right.”

“I have to say, Nicholas is really smitten with you. Why don’t you just accept both of them? That way, you won’t be in a dilemma any longer,” Arius suggested.

Sophie was rendered speechless.

Is he for real?

“What? Am I wrong? He’s obviously head over heels for you. Just accept him. There’s no harm having one more man around,” Arius added.

Sophie refused to listen to Arius anymore.

“I think you should head back. You’re just spewing nonsense here. Do you think you’re of any help?”

“All right. I’ll shut up. If it wasn’t for you, do you think I’d want to come?” Arius retorted. He had never gotten along with Nicholas. Hence, he was risking his life coming here.

Yet, Sophie showed no gratitude for his help.

To make matters worse, she even gave him a disdainful look.
