The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella and Romeo) novel Chapter 1276

The mountain top restaurant was a single-storeyed structure, made predominantly of glass, giving it a chic and elegant appearance. Every table offered its customers a window seat, ensuring a mesmerizing view of the enchanting night.

The restaurant didn't have any private suites, so Bard had positioned himself by the window. When Arabella walked in after finishing her phone call, he handed her the menu, saying, "You choose the food."

Arabella skimmed through the menu, which was full of delicacies, and asked, "Any dietary restrictions, Uncle Bard?"

"None whatsoever, I can eat anything."

Arabella ordered a few dishes and after placing the order, she started replying to other messages.

Ten minutes later.

The food started to arrive.

Bard watched as Arabella devoured the food with apparent delight, completely devoid of any etiquette. His gaze softened once more.

She was indeed unique.

"Eat up," he said, smiling as he helped her with the food.

"Sir, ma'am, your order is complete. Enjoy your meal," the waiter said, bowing before leaving.

Bard looked at Arabella surprisingly, "Is that all you ordered?"

That seemed like very little.

"It's a waste if we can't finish it."

Bard started to laugh, reaching for the pad when Arabella stopped him, "Uncle Bard, we really can't finish it all. We can come back another time for the other dishes. We don't have to eat it all now."

"This is the first time I'm treating you." Bard was cut off when the lights in the restaurant suddenly went out.

"A power outage?"
