The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella and Romeo) novel Chapter 504

People outside always said Alberto was like a burning flame, but in front of everyone, especially Bella, he's an energetic, adorable, and fun-loving old man!

On the other side.

Zachary received a call at home: "What did you say? A mental hospital? I'm on my way."

Shortly after Zachary left, his mother got a shocking message: "The Murphy family bought that piece of land in the suburbs and paid 1.2 billion dollars on the spot? Aren't they about to go bankrupt? Where did they get so much money from?"

After hanging up, she told her husband and anxiously asked, "Do you think the Murphy family was testing us before? Pretending to be poor to get our help? But we showed our true colors and pushed them away."

Zachary's father nodded and said, "It's possible."

"1.2 billion, just like that. That's several times more than our assets!"

Now that they've bought that piece of land in the suburbs, it's rumored to be worth a fortune, and owning it could reap several times the profit!

"What if the Murphy family strikes it rich and Yolanda dumps Zachary?" Zachary's mother was suddenly panic-stricken.

"Calm down; let's wait for Zachary to come back and ask about the situation. If they really did buy that land, we as parents need to show up at the engagement party in a few days, give the Murphy family due respect, and seal this marriage deal!"

"But," Zachary's mother said, she couldn't stand Yolanda, be it looks, temperament, academics, or talents; she's no match for Arabella!

"Forget about Arabella; she's a top scholar and a piano master; she won't even look at your son. Let's go, let's change, and get ready for tonight's charity gala."
