The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella)

Chapter 2147

“Then all of a sudden, he stopped breathing. | recalled how he clung towith one hand while pointing outside with the other,

gasping for breath. “Maybe he was trying to givea clue. So, | immediately reported to Sean. He also thought it was possible, so

we were all thinking: could the person he was hinting at have ‘sky’ or ‘night’ or ‘moon’ or ‘star’ in his name?”

Steward'’s voice trailed off into a sullen tone, “In the end, we followed this clue for a long tbut found nothing. Now I think about

it, he was probably just pointing at nothing in particular. Got us running around for nothing.”

All that tand effort wasted.

Arabella, however, pressed on, “What was outside at that moment?”

“Nothing really, from where he was lying in the car, he could probably only see the sky. I'm not even sure if the moon or stars were

out.”

Now think about it, the masterminds behind all this are Lucas and Beverly, but what does that have to do with him pointing at the

sky?

He was just pointing randomly.

Suddenly, Arabella was lost in thought, remembering how Lucas and Beverly had looked back repeatedly before leaving Reflections

Villa.

It was Beverly who stopped first, her eyes brimming with complex tears as she looked at Arabella.

Those eyes seemingly wanting to say a thousand words, yet in the end, they only turned into two light words, “Take care.”

That didn’t sound like something an aunt would typically say to her niece at farewell.

It was as if she was warning that something might happen to her.

And Lucas shed tears too, insisting that she take care of herself.

Now she was the Collins family’s golden girl, with a loving family, a brilliant fiancé, and a bright future ahead.

Wasn't that good enough?

Why did they tell her to take care of herself.

That phrase sounded more like a wish for her safety.

Suddenly, Martha's words flashed through her mind.

“| just happened to catch such a good thing and seized the opportunity.”

“You can’t handle him, don’t think too highly of yourself, even with the entire Collins family combined, you're no match for him.”

With that thought, Arabella immediately stood up and said, “Enjoy your meal. Please close the lab door when you leave.”

“Hey, Ms. Bella, where are you going.” Steward looked confused—with so much food on the table, how could he finish it all by

himself?

As Arabella stepped out of the lab, her phone rang. It was from Jack.

“Boss, I've done sdigging. Before Romeo's parents went to Tulip Road, they bought a bunch of fruit and a bouquet of flowers

as if to visit someone. But they turned their vehicle around shortly after getting on Tulip Road. On their way back, George McMillian

stopped at a supermarket and bought a pack of sanitary pads.”
