Chapter 54

“Serena, you’re such a modest one! If it were me, I’d be bragging on Instagram right away! Are you

afraid we’ll find out about this? Are you worried it might shatter our fragile hearts?”

“Alright, let’s head back, let Serena enjoy her gifts. I’m so jealous!”

Even though Serena did not understand why her parents ordered so many clothes, shoes, and bags fór

Arabella, her main task now was to send her girlfriends away.

As they were about to get into the car, a luxury car suddenly pulled up in front of the villa.

One of the girlfriends, Brooklyn Reed, couldn’t help but ask, “Serena, isn’t that your fiancée’s car?”

That license plate, that limited–edition luxury car–who else could it be other than her fiancée?

Following Brooklyn’s gaze, Serena saw that it was indeed Romeo’s car. Romeo was here?

Carl got out of the car, respectfully opening the back door.

Romeo got out of the car, hand in hand with Arabella. Seeing this, the girlfriends were stunned.

“Serena, isn’t that your fiancée? Why is he holding hands with another woman?

“Why is she coming out of his car? What is she doing at your house?”

“What is she up to?”

“Who does that woman think she is? Just wait till I humiliate her!”

“She dares to have a crush on Serena’s fiancée; I’ll go humiliate her too!”

The girlfriends were about to confront Arabella.

Despite her jealousy of Arabella, Serena tried to calm her friends down: “Alright, alright, don’t make a

scene; she’s a relative.”

“What relative gets to hook up with your fiancée? They’re holding hands!”

“Serena, they’re treating you like this; why are you putting up with it?”

“Did Romeo fall for another woman? Or is he drunk? Is that why this woman is able to seduce him?”

Serena didn’t know how to explain the unexpected situation. Thankfully, there was a distance between

them, so she whispered, “Here’s the thing. That girl has a tragic past, as you know, my parents are

charitable, they’re considering adopting her.”

“She probably played her tragic card in front of Romeo, and he must have felt sorry for her.”

“Anyway, there must be a misunderstanding!”

Her girlfriends were still furious.

“Your parents can donate money if they want to be charitable! Why would they take in a stranger?”

“If your parents take in someone with no blood relation, she might covet your family’s wealth and even

your fiancée; that would be trouble!”

Serena didn’t know how to get her friends to leave. Just then, Martha arrived, and Serena quickly

signaled to her. Together, they managed to send the girls away.

On the other side.

As soon as Arabella got out of the car, she saw Jamie waving at her, saying, “Hi, Ms. Bennett, we meet

again.”

He had wanted to ask his boss about the delivery address, but his boss had blocked him, and his calls

were not getting through.

“Why are you here?” Seeing him here surprised Arabella, but she also had a bad feeling. Surely the

designs she worked on overnight hadn’t all been delivered here.

After checking the items, she realized they were indeed her designs. She felt a pang in her heart, never

thinking that after all this, the items would end up back in her hands!

“Do you two know each other?” Romeo looked from Arabella to Jamie, his eyes clearly showing a hint

of wariness and displeasure.
