The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella and Romeo) novel Chapter 86

Serena was following the maid all around, finally reaching Phillip after a lot of hustle. Tears welled up in her eyes and her voice choked up.

"Grandpa!" She burst into tears as soon as she saw Phillip, "I'm so glad to see you sitting here healthy, but I can't help but feel guilty."

"What's with the tears?" Phillip asked.

"I messed up last time! I wanted to help you recover faster, but I didn't realize the pill I gave you was faulty." Serena felt deeply ashamed, "You suffered for nothing. luckily, you're a good sport, and everything turned out okay!"

Phillip chuckled kindly, "Let's not dwell on what's past."

Actually, it wasn't a problem with the pill, but his frail body wasn't suitable for it. But he didn't want to explain all this to Serena.

At this moment, a chef handed a menu to Phillip for his review.

"Not bad, not bad." Phillip perused from top to bottom, "Did you add chocolate powder to this dessert? Arabella doesn't fancy this. Switch it to strawberry flavor."

Upon hearing this, Serena thought,” Arabella? She's coming here for dinner? Impossible?! Why does Phillip seem to know her taste so well?”

"Prepare more fruits too! Cut them into cute shapes!" Phillip handed back the menu cheerfully, "That’s all. Go prepare everything now!"

Serena maintained a courteous smile, "Grandpa, do we have any special guests tonight? I noticed a lot of servants are cleaning up and setting up the place, are we..."

"It's for your sister! I invited her for dinner tonight." Phillip laughed heartily, "Never thought the unexpected would happen. She turned out to be Romeo's fiancée! Serena, seems like we aren't fated in this lifetime, you can't be my granddaughter-in-law."

"I don't have my sister's good fortune." Serena felt a twinge of resentment!
