"Everything is becoming so interesting and out of my control that I don't really know if I can still be arrogant, huh~" Arthur shook his head, feeling helpless.
Nonetheless, he wasn't desperate or afraid because he still possessed an advantage that no one else had: knowledge of the contents of the novel!
With this alone, he resembled a prophet capable of glimpsing the future, even though he understood that the world's current path had deviated from his novel.
Observing Arthur's silence and concern etched on his face, Vivian couldn't help but ask, "Honey, is this burdening you?"
Her voice carried a mix of worry and fear, concerned about what she believed might befall Arthur.
However, Arthur snapped out of his reverie and promptly gazed at Vivian, shaking his head.
"Don't worry, my mom. I'm fine," he replied with a reassuring smile and a soothing tone.
