The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella and Romeo) novel Chapter 782

A few days later.

After wrapping up his work, Romeo decided to take Arabella out for a movie night.

But as soon as he got home, he found Arabella all dressed up, ready to go out.

"Out with Mom again?" He asked.

"Yep, Aunt Jennifer asked me to accompany her while shopping," She replied.

That had been going on for days!

Once Arabella had left, Romeo couldn't help but call Jennifer, "Mom, when are you and Dad leaving for your trip?"

"We decided not to go," Jennifer's voice sounded cheerful, "I realized that I have more fun with Bella."

Romeo asked, a hint of frustration in his voice, "Don't you love traveling the world? Weren't you supposed to set off right after visiting Grandma and Grandpa?"

"No, I prefer spending time with Bella than looking at the beaches of Maldives. Bella won't be home for dinner tonight, you'll have to manage on your own. I must hang up now, Bella might try to call me."

Exasperated, Romeo recalled how a couple of days ago, he wanted to take Bella to see the waterfalls, but his mom whisked her away with a single phone call.

Yesterday, he planned to show Bella the rolling clouds at the sea, but again, his mom got there first.

And that day, he wanted to take Bella to a movie, but by the time he got home and was ready to ask her, she was already dressed and out the door.

Sitting on his couch in his empty house, Romeo felt frustrated but didn't know who to vent to.

On the other side of town.

Arabella, arm in arm with Jennifer, had visited several luxury stores.
