The Princess and the Pauper

Chapter 68

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 mani

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?”

Arabella could tell he was just talking nonsense. “Did you call me for a reason?”

“Where did you go?”

Even though it was a simple question coming from Romeo, it seemed filled with longing

“Don’t you already know where I am?”

Arabella walked out of the elevator, heading straight towards the black car outside the hotel, she

opened the car door and locked at him, saying, “Did you follow re from the company to the hotel?”

“You knew all along?” Seeing her approach, Romeo pulled her into his arms and said dependently, “I

just happened to pass by and saw you.”

“You didn’t even look for me” Romeo’s dark eyes were fixated on her

“How should I? Should I stop the car and ask you why you’re following me?” Arabella tried to pull away

from him.

But Romeo held onto her, and for some reason, the anxiety and restlessness he felt earlier

disappeared the moment he held her

“I really want to hold you, what should I do?” Romeo looked at her sincerely and passionately; not

waiting for her response, he hugged her even tighter: “Just for a

moment.”

“Who is he?”

Romeo’s chin gently rubbed against her shoulder, he felt extremely jealous.

Carl, who was sitting in the front, was genuinely shocked by Romeo’s behavior. Who knew Mr.

McMillan could act so spoiled?

Arabella explained, “He’s an elder of mine.”

“Are you close?”

“What do you think?”

Romeo continued, “You didn’t even serve me food yesterday”

“Are you unable to use a fork? Are you really jealous of an old man?

“Could you treat me like that next time?”

Arabella didn’t expect him to be so petty when he was serious “Can you let go of me now?”

“If you agree, I’ll let go.”
