The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella and Romeo) novel Chapter 122

Just now, one of the guys went downstairs to grab takeout, and he saw someone who looked a helluva lot like Arabella heading into the private elevator. From the back, it's got to be her.

Mr. Charlie was kind of freaked out, so he decided to check the surveillance cameras at the front entrance.

If Arabella really did swing by, the cameras would have definitely caught her on tape!

While one of the dudes was busy pulling up the CCTV footage, Arabella whipped out her phone, deleted all the surveillance footage of her entering the building, and then started recording their every move.

"Mr. Charlie, if Arabella really did drop by and she found out about the stuff we're producing, what do we do then?" One guy asked, worried that Arabella might start digging into their business.

"The way she's snooping around, it won't be long before all our dirty laundry is aired in public!"

"Are we going to lose our jobs over this?"

"If Arabella finds out about our screw-ups, it's not just our jobs that would be on the line; we might even get sued!"

Mr. Charlie, hearing their chatter, let out a snide chuckle: "If someone happened to get into a car accident or some other mishap on their way to or from work, we can't be blamed. it’s just their crappy luck."

The guys were freaked out by his insinuation. Was Mr. Charlie implying that if Arabella saw something she shouldn't have, he might resort to drastic measures?

But Arabella was sent from HQ; what if there's more to her than they know?

A little while later, the guy who went to check the surveillance came back and said, "Mr. Charlie, Arabella didn't drop by tonight. That dude probably just saw it wrong."

"Looks like we freaked out for nothing. What are we waiting for, then? Let's get back to work!"

"I nearly had a heart attack, thinking Arabella had actually shown up. I even worried she might have come to the warehouse!"

A group of five or six guys turned off the lights and got ready to leave.
