The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 1216

Chapter 1216

When Serena woke up, the first thing she saw was a video message from Sylvia, filmed in her own backyard.

In the video, Romeo and Arabella were acting cozy, looking every bit the infatuated couple.

Serena's mind reeled. Why was Sylvia at her house? Why was Arabella home on a day she normally wasn't? And why on earth was Romeo there?

After sending the video, Sylvia added a note: [Serena, you were napping and didn't see how deeply Romeo cares for you. He deliberately brought this girl to your garden, showing off their closeness to provoke you, hoping to win you back. Maybe you should reconsider returning to him. Seeing him like this, I can't help but feel bad for him.]

This was a disaster!

If Sylvia found out Arabella was actually the heiress of the house, and Romeo was Arabella's fiancé, then Serena's true identity as the adopted daughter would be revealed!

In her rush to get out of bed, tangled in the duvet, Serena fell and banged her knee hard on the floor.

Ignoring the pain, she raced to the garden.

Not just Sylvia, but Antonia, Melissa, Una, Christine, they were all there!

Standing face to face with them were Romeo, Arabella, and Hans, looking as though they were in a standoff.

Serena's heart dropped. Did her best friends know her real identity? Why was Hans there too? Had Arabella called him?

Serena's mind went blank.

But Chasel and Myrna saw through her, even suggesting Arabella should examine her.

Eventually, the truth came out, and Delia and her friends stopped talking to her.

Should she fake fainting again this time? But Hans, being as astute as he was, would undoubtedly see through her.

What should she do?

What should she do?

Out of all her brothers, Hans was the hardest to deal with.
