The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella and Romeo) novel Chapter 68

Romeo watched as Arabella finished her meal.

After dinner, Arabella got into Alberto's car to fetch something from the hotel.

Yolanda and Zachary, who were waiting outside The Gourmet Garden, saw her helping him into the car, which was headed towards a hotel!

Zachary didn't understand why he suddenly felt so pissed off, but he fired up his engine and followed them.

"That was her choice!"

For some reason, seeing Arabella's fair and attractive face made Zachary extremely annoyed.

Maybe because he grew up overseas, he had only seen Arabella a few times. He never thought she would look so appealing when dressed up, let alone use her good looks to seduce an old man!

If she came to him for help, maybe, just maybe, he could lend a hand!

"Mr. McMillan, Ms. Bennett just entered the hotel; should we follow her?"

Carl watched as Arabella helped Alberto into the hotel, sensing the jealousy radiating from the man in the car, which made him feel suffocated.

"Or, you could call Ms. Bennett? Ask her what she's up to."

Romeo ignored him, clearly disdainful of his suggestion.

But as the seconds ticked by, Romeo couldn't resist reaching for his phone to dial that familiar number.

And it had only been five minutes since Carl's suggestion.

"Bella."

Even Romeo himself didn't notice the hint of a whiny complaint in his tone, which sounded a bit pitiful.

"Do you need something?" Arabella just stepped out of room with stuff.

"I just want to chat." Romeo just wanted to hear her voice at that moment: "What did you have for lunch?"

"Just some grub from a regular restaurant." Arabella was in the elevator, and the signal was still holding up.

"How was it?"

Romeo thought that since she finished all her food, it must've been pretty good.

"Not bad."

"Could you take me next time?"
