The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella and Romeo) novel Chapter 673

How on earth?

Everything's topsy-turvy?

Serena couldn't believe that the image she had worked so hard to build had collapsed so easily. She closed her eyes tightly, took a moment to laugh, then slowly rose to her feet.

Since the cat was out of the bag, there was no need for her to keep up the pretense.

“Yes, I am indeed the adopted child.” Serena lowered her head and took a while before lifting it to look at Arabella. There was self-mockery, heartache, and jealousy in her eyes. “She’s the real Collins family daughter.”

“What on earth is going on?” Delia and her three friends were totally bamboozled.

However, Serena was not in the mood to answer her question. She looked at Chasel, tears streaming down her face.

“You all said that after Arabella came back, you would still treat me like family. But every single thing you do, every word you say, you're all siding with her!”

Serena's tears fell pitifully.

“Chasel, we've lived together for eighteen years. Are our feelings less important than those of a sister who just came back?”

Chasel's eyes were complicated, but it wasn’t true.

“And you, from the day you set foot in the Collins family's home, have you ever been friendly to me?” Serena loudly questioned Arabella.

Kelly, who was standing to the side, couldn’t stand it anymore and stepped in to defend: “Bella's always been sort of aloof, but she has a heart of gold.”
