Chapter 91
“Mr. Collins is in the loop and he’s cool with you staying over.” The butler added.
Arabe was puzzled. Her dad agreed, just like that?!
No way!!
“Here’s a voice message from your dad.” Phillip opened his phone and yed it for her.
“I’m definitely more at ease with Arabe staying at your ce, so I guess I won’t wait up for her
tonight.” Keh’s voice came out.
After all, she was bound to be a McMillian sooner orter. Plus, Phillip promised there’d be no
room–sharing with Romeo. He just fancied his future daughter–inw and wanted her to stay a night
at Fairfield Manor, With dozens of servants around the manor, there was no way anything could
happen under their watch.
At this point, Keh couldn’t really object and had to let it slide.
Arabe did not expect her dad to agree so casually.
“Romeo, take Arabe to the room on the south side of the third floor. I’ve had it cleaned.” After Phillip
finished, he turned to the butler, “Get Arabe antern, and also find out when the power would be
back on. It has been a while!”
“Right away.” The butler promptly brought antern with a Zen vibe to Arabe.
“I got it.” Romeo reached out to take it, leading Arabe upstairs with his other hand.
Although everything was dark, the warm light from thentern and the warmth from his hand gave
Arabe a sense of security.
“Are you afraid of the dark?” Romeo turned to ask the littledy following behind.
Before Arabe could answer, Romeo put his arm around her shoulders, “If you are, just stay close to
me.”
Arabe wasn’t even afraid of ghosts, let alone darkness. It was nothingpared to what she had
been through. When they arrived at the room, Arabe realized that thentern was kind of
unnecessary. The room was sorge that the dim light did little to brighten it up. Overall, it was still
dark.
In the dim light, Romeo looked at the girl in front of him. Her sparkling eyes were like stars in the night
sky, radiating a captivating glow. Her casual aura was like a charming queen.
“I’ll stay with you until the power’s back.” He couldn’t resist touching her face.
Only then did he realize how soft, tender, and smooth her face was. It was a bit small, and his hand
could easily cover it.
Arabe turned her face away, “You go do your thing.”
“I’ve got nothing to do.” Romeo said.
“Then go keep your grandpapany.” Arabe said.
“Grandpa’s had a long day. He’s going to bed.” Romeo said.
Arabe looked at the clingy guy in front of her, somewhat helpless, “Then you go to your own room.”
“I want to stay here with you.” Romeo could feel his breathing bing more rapid. The girl’s elegant
scent made him want to get closer and closer. Just then, his phone rang. After answering, he told the
girl in his arms, “There’s a power outage due to equipment failure. No electricity tonight.” Arabe didn’t

reply.
“I’m going to check if there are any clothes that need washing.” If he didn’t leave now, he was afraid
he wouldn’t be able to control himself. Walking into the walk–in closet in the room, Romeo found it
empty.
