After finishing the call, Claire yawned, feeling the weight of sleepiness.<\/p>\n
It was, after all, the time when most people were supposed to be asleep.<\/p>\n
Then, remembering something, she glanced at Arthur beside her and chuckled, \u201cSorry about this. It\u2019s such a late hour, and here I am troubling you to come out.<\/p>\n
\u201cSorry for disturbing your rest!\u201d<\/p>\n
Arthur could see how tired she was; her eyelids were drooping significantly. \u201cYou don\u2019t need to be so polite with me. If you\u2019re sleepy, just lie down and rest. I\u2019ll wake you up when we arrive. You\u2019re safe here, so feel free to sleep.\u201d<\/p>\n
Claire shook her head vigorously and smiled, \u201cNo, it\u2019s okay. Let me say what I need to say first, and then I\u2019ll lie down and rest.\u201d<\/p>\n
Arthur nodded, understanding that she had something important to say. \u201cAlright, go ahead. I\u2019m listening.\u201d<\/p>\n
Claire reached up and touched her forehead, her expression showing a hint of hesitation.<\/p>\n
Arthur didn\u2019t rush her, just sat quietly by her side.<\/p>\n
After a moment, Claire finally spoke slowly, \u201cArthur, I\u2019ve been thinking a lot about what you said these past few days. I\u2019m not young anymore, but I\u2019m definitely not old either.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd that doesn\u2019t matter at all. As long as I have a young heart, that\u2019s what counts. Youth is about taking risks, not fearing gossip, and following your heart.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo I\u2019ve decided that at the age of 45, on the brink of turning 46, I want to give us a real try. I want to see what it\u2019s like to be with you properly.\u201d<\/p>\n
Though Claire\u2019s words were spoken with gravity, the hint of shyness on her face couldn\u2019t be hidden.<\/p>\n
Arthur noticed it all.<\/p>\n
He smiled at her for a few seconds before extending his large hand. \u201cWelcome to my life, Claire. It\u2019s my honor to have you.\u201d<\/p>\n
This gesture eased the awkwardness that came with Claire\u2019s shyness. She extended her hand as well. \u201cAnd welcome to my life, Arthur. It\u2019s my honor too.\u201d<\/p>\n
With that, their hands clasped together, shook a few times, and they both laughed in unison.<\/p>\n
When the news of Stella\u2019s arrest reached Tristan, his private jet had just landed in Ritewood.<\/p>\n
He was there to attend an important bilateral economic summit.<\/p>\n
Before he even left the airport, his assistant received the news.<\/p>\n
He approached him, saying, \u201cSir, Ms. Walton was taken away by Arthur\u2019s men. It seems Arthur personally went to the island to find Claire and arrested Stella.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe was caught with a knife in Claire\u2019s room, intending to kill her. There are witnesses and evidence.\u201d<\/p>\n
Tristan\u2019s face turned pale with anger.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-653","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/653","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=653"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
