The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella)

Chapter 2053

Romeo escorted Arabella to her front porch, cradling her head tenderly for a deep kiss before gazing

into her eyes and saying, “I’ll pick you up at seven tomorrow night.”

He had just accompanied her to light a candle in memory of Grannie Grace, sharing the news that the

Murphy couple had met their fate by the state's hand.

Ever since their engagement had been announced, the whole town knew that he and Arabella were

betrothed. So the following evening, he wanted to take her to a dinner party to show everyone that she

belonged solely to him!

“Okay, see you tomorrow night.” As Arabella was about to leave, Romeo wrapped her in his arms

again, claiming her lips in a fervent kiss.

“That’s enough.” Arabella gently pushed him away, pulling out her constantly buzzing phone from her

pocket. It was a video call invitation from her aunt.

“I better head in. Drive safe and take it slow,” she cautioned before answering Eunice’s call.

“Bella, look, we’ve made it to Oldrun.” Eunice’s smile was radiant as she turned the camera to show the

scenery behind her, excitedly sharing with Arabella, “Isn’t it beautiful? Your grandparents wanted to

send you this view, but I beat them to it.” This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

The families had planned a world tour before the New Year, but with the mastermind still at large, the

Collins family couldn't afford to let their guard down. So Bard and Sampson took the lead in taking their

parents and their wives out for some enjoyment.

“If only you were here,” Eunice wished her niece was by her side.

Arabella smiled, “There’s been some progress here, and I think we’ll have answers soon. Once things

wrap up, we’ll come and join you guys.”

“That sounds wonderful,” Eunice’s smile brightened even further, “We’ll take our time and wait for you

to come. Even though you’re starting school again in a few days, everyone already knows you’re a

special guest professor at Summerfield College. As for Westerly College, it makes no difference

whether you return or not.”

Arabella chuckled, “You guys stay safe too. I’ll finish up here quickly and come find you.”

“Alright,” Eunice said before pausing, noticing something amiss. She stared at Arabella’s lips and

couldn't help but smile knowingly, “Did you and Romeo just kiss?”

Caught off guard by her aunt’s observation, Arabella’s cheeks turned a shade pinker.

Eunice’s laughter became even more beautiful. She pulled her husband closer and gave him a peck,

telling her niece, “There’s nothing to it, love. Hugs and kisses between spouses are perfectly normal.

No need to be shy.”

At that, Bard leaned in for another kiss.

Eunice’s smile was beaming as she invited, “Bring Romeo along when you come. We’re really looking

forward to having him.”

“Sure, if he can make it.”

Arabella entered the main house to find her family still discussing the execution of Attlee and Olga.

“Grannie Grace can finally rest in peace,” Louisa said, bringing over a bowl of soup. “Have a little

something, you must be hungry.” Content of Drаmąոovels.cоm

“Did you hear? Several companies under our uncle and aunt’s names are in trouble,” Clark whispered

to his sister.
