The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella and Romeo) novel Chapter 77

"A big shot?" Attlee had heard no such news.

"This big shot is quite a character, made him famous in the business world when he was young and built a massive business empire! His grandson took over later and expanded the business even more. He's young and already the richest man in the world!"

"You mean Romeo?"

Romeo being the wealthiest man in the world was no secret! But the guy himself rarely made public appearances, and even the media never published his picture.

"The big shot you're talking about, is it Mr. McMillian? Is he sick and in the hospital?"

How did he miss such major news?

"There's no such thing as a secret." Olga explained how things went down, "Mr. McMillian was critically ill a while back, his life was hanging by a thread, luckily a high school student was passing by and performed surgery on him."

Because this news got out, many people found out that Mr. McMillian was staying at Hope Hospital and flocked to visit him.

"A high school student, that good?"

Attlee thought to himself, if someone could save Mr. McMillian, they must have a bright future ahead of them.

A high school student, probably only seventeen or eighteen, had the guts to perform surgery on Mr. McMillian?! And they successfully saved Mr. McMillian?!

And then there's Arabella, whom he's been raising for eighteen years, not only had she achieved nothing, but she'd also brought him all sorts of trouble!

"Apparently, Mr. McMillian is about to be discharged. We must seize the opportunity and offer our assistance." Olga strategized.

"But will Mr. McMillian agree to meet us?" Attlee seemed a bit worried.

Would someone as important like Mr. McMillian meet a city man like him?

"We can give it a shot! How will we know if we don't try?" Olga thought, if Mr. McMillian was willing to help them, then the Panter family wouldn't dare to act so cocky in their presence.
