Arthur Lockwood shot a confused glance at Beta Morgan, only to meet a pair of eyes gloating at the drama. Arthur's expression faltered as he thought, 'This guy is asking for trouble!'
Meanwhile, Jade Sinclair noticed Arthur Lockwood hadn't responded right away. She knew that the scions of great families were always cautious and wouldn't casually indebt themselves to others while they were out.
So, she forced a smile and pressed on, trying to leverage her connection through Stella Sinclair. "Young Master Lockwood, thank you so much for taking care of my niece, Stella. When you have some free time, we can have Stella invite you over to our home..."
"Wait, who did you say?"
Arthur Lockwood finally spoke, cutting her off.
He was used to people trying to curry favor with him, but this was the first time he'd seen someone get the connection so completely wrong. 'No wonder Morgan told me to come over,' he thought. 'The Sinclair Family is truly laughable.'
