Chapter 466 The Day It Happened
"I can grant you five minutes alone with her. That's all."
Arthur grit his teeth in anger and ran his hands across his face roughly. He wished he had more time than that, but he decided he wasn't going to be greedy about it. Alec already looked like giving him those five minutes was going to be difficult, so asking for more would definitely not be a good idea. But Arthur knew what he had to do now.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
He would talk to Arit and make her tell them that they were wrong. They were all wrong. There was no way his daughter was a killer! There was no way she did what they were saying she did! Why would Arit kill anyone? Arit had wanted to be a doctor for as long as Arthur could remember, and she cared about human life more than anyone he knew!
She would never kill anyone!
"Okay... Okay, w-what do you want me to do?"
Alec nodded and gestured to someone outside to enter, and two men came into the room and started to fit Arthur's shirt with a wire.
"We are going to need you to separate Arit from Mark. We won't be able to handle them both if they're together, and if a fight breaks out, we don't want a situation where they both run away. So we need you to take her as far away from him as possible. They're currently living together in a hotel called The Red Lotus a few intersections away from this building and—"
Arthur suddenly interrupted Alec in surprise as he heard what Alec said.
"Wait, they're staying in a hotel together? What about the apartment I got for them?"
"They haven't been there for a long time now."
"...Oh. Okay."
Alec continued.
"You're going to lure Arit down to the lobby of the hotel and out into the main road. We'll take things from there." Experience more tales on empire

Knock! Knock! Knock!
A knock on the door drew Mark's attention from his place on the couch, and he heard Arit saying that she would get it. Arit came out from the kitchen with an apron around her waist. She had been practicing another one of her mother's cake recipes, so there was some flour on her hands that she cleaned with the apron before she looked through the peephole.
Once she looked through it, Arit's eyes widened in shock!
"Dad? DAD!!"
Arit opened the door wide and jumped into her father's arms happily while laughing, and Arthur smiled as he caught his daughter in his hands. He laughed along with her and held her close while swinging her around happily. Finally, after what seemed like forever, he allowed her to come down and he stared at his little girl.
"You've grown so big, baby girl! Look at you! I almost didn't recognize you!"
Arit laughed when her father said this! She had no idea her father was coming back to the country already!
"Why didn't you tell me that you were coming back, Dad!? I would've come to get you from the airport!"
Arthur laughed and just told Arit that he didn't plan to come back so soon either; he just decided to come see her. Arit grinned so wide that Arthur thought her mouth would split in two. She was so happy to see him, and for a moment right then, Arthur hoped to God that Alec had been wrong.
Arit blinked as she suddenly realized that there was someone else standing beside Arthur, and she gave the manager of the hotel a greeting. The manager smiled and greeted Arit back.
When the manager heard from Arthur that he wanted to see Arit and Mark, she initially wanted to send them a message first to tell them about Arthur, but Arthur told her that he was Arit's father and he wanted this to be a surprise. So, she relented and allowed him to come up only if she and a security guard came along.
The manager knew that there was very little that could harm Ghost at all, but their hotel prided itself on the security of their guests no matter what. She wouldn't just allow anyone to go up without supervision.
Once the manager was sure that Arthur had been telling the truth, she gave them both a bow before turning to leave the corridor with the security guard. Arit realized that she had been keeping her father standing outside all this while, and she blushed in embarrassment as she told him to come in.
She took his hand and led him inside, and her father couldn't help the look of awe on his face as he saw the enormous apartment. This is a freaking villa!
