"Have you been waiting here since the beginning?" asked Arthur.

"Right, I knew that we would meet here since your aunt moved here," Linda replied.

"You know, how long it's been since we met. I'm getting more and more successful but I get frustrated more often because I can't touch your body."

She placed her hand on Arthur's thigh after saying that, slowly moving towards his cock.

Arthur didn't stop her, letting her do what she wanted.

However, she also seemed to know when the time was right. Her hand stopped moving before it touched his dick.

"Hehehe, you must be busy today, so I'll be your driver, where do you want to go, honey?" she asked.

"Right now I want to go to an expedition company," Arthur replied.

"An expedition company?" Linda looked surprised and confused.

"What do you want to send?" She became even more confused as she didn't see anything that Arthur was carrying.

"Just a few things, can you take me there?" Arthur replied.

Seeing that he didn't want to explain, Linda nodded before starting to drive.

The car moved onto the road, going in a certain direction.

"By the way, where's Mia?" Arthur asked.

"Coug!" Linda suddenly coughed when she heard that.

Her expression looked like she didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Darling, don't tell me we can't make love if there's no Mia?" she asked in a worried tone.

Arthur glanced at her face and shook his head. "I'm just curious."

"Thank goodness!" Linda breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that.

"Well, Mia's not in this city, she's probably in London, we haven't seen each other much," she said.

"I see!"

As it turned out, the location of the expedition company Linda was heading to was not that far away, they arrived in less than 10 minutes.

It was a crowded and full place. Linda naturally couldn't get out here either.

Arthur went out on his own, and entered the expedition company himself.

Of course, for him it was not difficult to take out his neatly wrapped potions. He just needed to go to a quiet place for a while.

The process of delivering the goods did not take long at all. He not only sent his potions to Paris, but also to America.

Other than for Isla who he told to build up strength there, they were also for Suzune and Rebecca. There were even potions that were good for pregnant women.

For Suzune who was carrying his child, he naturally needed to pay more attention to her.

In fact, their communication was also uninterrupted.

They messaged each other every day.

It was also not difficult for Arthur to know the woman's immediate condition because the woman always updated her social media regularly.

She didn't give the impression of being pregnant because it didn't affect her body at all.

Instead, she looked even more beautiful due to the effects of her magic power.

Although it was said that every woman had their own strengths and weaknesses, Suzune's strengths were mostly in her beauty. She had the most striking appearance.

After finishing the business with the expedition company, Arthur went to a quiet place to contact Suzune to tell her that he sent the potions to America, and of course, he also wanted to talk about the destruction of the Armstrong Family and what he found. He wanted her to later tell Rebecca and find out if there were any similarities between the Armstrong Family and their Family.

The woman picked up his video call directly even though it was night in America.

Arthur contacted her too because she gave him a sign that she hadn't slept.

When the screen changed, the woman's figure appeared on Arthur's phone screen.

Now, she was wearing a short nightgown with her hair in a ponytail.

Her slightly wet skin showed that she had just finished bathing.

She was also staring at her phone screen to see Arthur's figure.

Her lips quickly curled before opening as she asked, "dear, is there something that you are calling me?"

Her demeanor in front of Arthur was very gentle now, very different from when they first met where she showed a strong sense of arrogance.

"Have you heard about the Armstrong Family's destruction?" Arthur asked.

"Yeah, people are freaking out right now, but I'm too lazy to think about them," she replied, seemingly uninterested in talking about the family.

Arthur was a little confused by her reaction. Did this woman have a different way of thinking or was she perhaps starting to focus only on her pregnancy.

"By the way, I'll let your mother know if there's a giant basement under the Harrington family patriarch's residence," Arthur said.

"A giant basement?" Hearing Arthur's words this time surprised Suzune. It seemed like she knew something.

"What is it?" asked Arthur.

"As far as I know there's a giant basement down there," Suzune replied. "No one is allowed to enter except the head of the family. People often say that it contains untold treasures. Don't tell me you found anything like that in the Armstrong Family residence."

Arthur narrowed his eyes when he heard that. There did seem to be some common ground between them.

"There is indeed something like that, but the contents of the basement are not treasures," he replied.

"Then?" Suzune finally looked curious.

"It's probably more that you don't know about it. For now, there's no need to tell your mother and don't try to investigate this before I get there."

Even if he went there, Arthur would also not act hastily because Alexander Armstrong's death must have made the enemy wary.

If there was the same creature hiding in the bodies of the other Heads of Families, they would definitely prepare themselves for its arrival.

Arthur's serious expression as he said that made Suzune nod.

"By the way, when are you coming here?" she asked. "You know, I miss hugs from you."

"In a few days I'll probably go to America, my destination is New York, but I'll try to see you."

"Are you serious?" Suzune suddenly immediately showed an excited expression, like a little girl who got a new doll.

"There's something else I want to tell you," Arthur continued while Suzune was still in shock.

"What?" The woman responded immediately.

"I sent some potions to you and your mother, they may arrive tomorrow. You should consume it, it's good for you and our baby."

"Ahhh, sure... It seems that you're starting to have a fatherly attitude." Suzune couldn't help but laugh.

Arthur didn't say anything about it, he then said, "there are still many things I want to do, so see you later!"

In fact, right now there was someone peeping into Suzune's room. That was of course Rebecca.

After Suzune put down her cell phone, she entered with a faint smile.

Just like Suzune, she was also wearing a short nightgown.

Suzune looked at her without saying anything, waiting for her to speak first.

"Suzune, it seems that you are getting more and more immersed with him, yeah, this is good, so I don't have to worry about my daughter not getting married," she said as she arrived in front of her bed.

She then sat down.

Suzune rolled her eyes and replied, "if it's not Arthur, I can't believe you can smile. I'm afraid you'd be angry if my relationship with a man wasn't a favorable one for you."

Suzune unhesitatingly insinuated that she was staring in the other direction for a moment.

In reality it was like that. She was a mother who only used her daughter for profit.

"I'm definitely happy if you get the best man," Rebecca replied, continuing to be hypocritical. "However, I wonder if you really sincerely love him?" She then asked.

Her question was enough to make Suzune's expression upset.

"What do you mean by asking that? You think I'm insincere?" she said.

"No, I'm just surprised, after all, we knew that you weren't that kind of woman before this. I thought, if you hooked up with a man, you would just take advantage of him." Rebecca spoke frankly.

"You don't have that kind of intention, do you?"

"Nonsense," Suzune replied in a high tone.

"I wasn't like you from the start, you're a naturally damaged woman, but I was damaged by those vile bastards. Arthur came to me like a holy light, he changed me, and restored my sanity. The me now is the pure me. He purified me, not looking down on me because of my previous damage, now he is my everything. Okay, maybe I'm not sincere because I'm more than sincere."

Rebecca, "..."

Meanwhile, Arthur returned to Linda's car.

When he sat down, the woman couldn't help but ask, "why did you take so long there? Was there a lot of queuing? Or are you shipping too many items?"

Arthur was there several times longer than she had expected, which was why she was confused.

Arthur shook his head and replied, "I was chatting with someone."

He was telling the truth, only incompletely so Linda couldn't tell that he was chatting via video call.

Fortunately, she was also not a woman who liked to interfere in other people's lives. After that, she changed the topic.

"Now where do you want to go?" she asked.

"I want to go to the best property company in this city, which sells big, luxurious houses," Arthur replied.
