Chapter 783


    His entire body exuded an aura that could only belong to someone from a military background. On his


    handsome and well–defined features was a pair of eyes that looked like stars. His gaze was firm and


    held a strong power that could see through everything


    “This way please, Mr. Lloyd. The guest bedroom is over here.” The steward came forward and greeted


    him courteously.


    “Where‘s your young master? I want to see him.”


    “He‘s been busy preparing for the wedding these days, and he‘s also quite swamped tonight. I‘ll inform


    him toe and meet you tomorrow morning,” the steward replied.


    Richard frowned slightly. “Alright.”


    He then went into the guest room prepared beforehand, and an attendant immediately came over to


    serve dinner. He was told to take a good rest at night, which meant that he wasn‘t supposed to go out


    loitering at night.


    However, Richard wasn‘t someone who kept to himself since young. In the middle of the night, his


    figure disappeared behind his window like a fleeting shadow despite the fact that he was four stories


    above ground.


    Richard immediately went for the master bedroom where Arthur would be in. He had been here before,


    and he was quite familiar with the ce. He passed by a dark garden and finally arrived at the window


    which was still illuminated by the lights within. He positioned himself on the wall near the window and


    swiftly climbed up.


    In the main bedroom, a pampered figure was still awake. Arthur wore a ck nightgown as he swirled


    the ss of wine in his hand which was meant to aid with sleep. His dark hair drooped and covered his


    full forehead, whereas his exposed features were handsome and alluring, exuding the prestigious aura


    he possessed since birth.


    Just then, he keenly sensed that there was someone outside the window. His eyes darkened. “Who‘s


    there?”


    The person outside had no intention of hiding as he jumped through the window. Who could it be other


    than Richard?


    When Arthur saw him enter, he dropped his guard, but he wasn‘t too surprised either. He simply said


    calmly, “It‘s you.”


    Richard‘s lowest expectation was to be greeted warmly by his best friend, while his


    highest expectation was to receive a hug from him. However, he never expected Arthur to just greet


    him so indifferently.


    This disappointment was no better than getting abandoned by the love of his life.


    “Is that how you‘re going to wee me? Artie, what‘s wrong with you?” Richard asked right away. He


    wanted to know what had caused their friendship to be so distant.


    “What‘s wrong with me?” Arthur raised an eyebrow as he returned the question.


    “Don‘t you feel that something has changed between us? You getting married is a huge event, but you


    merely asked your steward to inform me about it. Are you so busy that you can‘t even take time to call


    me and Elliot up?” Richard acted like a neglected wife as he confronted Arthur.


    Arthur looked at him, confused. “Would you onlye if I invite you myself?”


    “You,” For some reason, Richard felt defeated. He let out a sigh and plopped onto Arthur‘s bed. “You


    know, I was in such a rush and dyed everything else toe and see you. I was worried about you.”


    “Why were you worried?” Arthur continued swirling the wine in the ss, the coldness in his eyes still


    unrelenting as if nothing in this world could rouse his excitement.


    Richard was fuming by then, and he even wanted to give his good friend a good beating so that Arthur


    could stop acting so aloof. By then, perhaps Arthur would be reminded of the past when they used to


    fight each other.


    “Artie, nothing happened to you, right? You look like you‘ve changed into apletely different


    person.” Richard sat up on the bed and looked at Arthur, who exuded a sickly charm under the lights. In


    fact, he looked like a cold beauty.


    “What could possibly happen to me?” Arthur looked at him, feeling slightly bored.


    Then, he stood up and said, “It‘s gettingte. You should go back and rest.”


    Richard gritted his teeth and got on his feet before walking up to Arthur. He stared right into thetter‘s


    eyes as if he were trying to find the truth behind it all.


    Arthur was a little stunned by his actions, so he pushed him away and said, “What are you looking at?!”


    Richard felt that there was obviously something wrong with Arthur, but he couldn‘t put a finger on it.


    Arthur was being too cold toward him, making it seem as though their friendship never existed.Property ? N?velDrama.Org.
