"Alma Collins is going to the same school too. We'll have fun messing with her."
At Martha's words, a gleam of delight flashed in Serena's eyes. The thought of what was to come made her giddy with excitement.
Come evening, Romeo showed up personally, bringing along a bunch of stuff essential for Arabella's college life.
"Romeo, you're so thoughtful, preparing all these things for Arabella. Want to come along with us tomorrow to drop Arabella off at school?" Louisa invited him with warmth.
Romeo accepted the invitation instantly, agreeing in his gentle manner.
"Has Shirley McMillan's health improved recently?" Kenneth asked amiably.
"She's responsive now. Arabella says her condition will get even better if she continues her medication."
"That's wonderful." Louisa hadn't expected her daughter to be so proficient in medicine. It looked like Bella could pursue a career in the medical field along with her brothers.
"All thanks to Arabella." Romeo was equally astonished. He hadn't expected Arabella to resolve issues that even top-notch doctors couldn't.
Suddenly, Romeo recalled the day Grace passed away. Arabella had sobbed, saying there were people in this world she couldn't heal.
Every time he thought of the helpless and pitiful little girl, his heart ached uncontrollably.
"I can go by myself tomorrow."
At this moment, Arabella was seated on the couch, one hand holding a glass of lemonade, the other resting on the armrest, radiating a powerful aura.
The little girl who used to cry in sorrow was nowhere to be seen.
She had been a professor at Summerfield College for a long time. For her, going to school was just a new life experience.
However, all three of them protested, "No way!"
How could they let her go to school alone?
Everyone has friends and family accompanying them when they started college.
Just then, David walked down the stairs, laden with stuff. "Arabella, take these to school."
David had been running up and down multiple times today. This time, he had prepared a bunch of his autographed photos for Arabella!
These weren't available on the market!
Arabella was left baffled.
"You're usually quiet; I'm worried you won't make friends." David placed the autographed photos in her suitcase. "These are my autographed photos. Give them to your classmates. They'll definitely help you build good relationships. If your classmates want to video call or voice chat with me, as long as they're good to you and truly consider you a friend,"
"Thank you."
"Why are you being so formal with your own brother?" David pulled out more autographed photos from his pocket. "These are for you."
"Me?" Arabella was even more confused.
"You've been home for so long, I haven't given you my autograph yet. These are photos of me in your favorite poses. When you miss me, take them out and have a look."
Romeo, on the side, was struggling to hold back his nausea.
This guy was so narcissistic. Who would miss him?
If that were the case, Arabella would probably miss her fiancé!
Watching David's antics, Kenneth said helplessly to Romeo, "My son always does such irrelevant things."
"Indeed, he's not as thoughtful as Romeo, who prepared a heap of essentials for Bella."
"I prepared stuff too."
Didn't he prepare a bunch of skincare products in the morning? Plus, all those snacks Bella liked.
