Chapter 127


    Arabe hopped out of the shower, fired up herptop, and was knee–deep in her own business when


    a knock on the door interrupted her. “Sweetie, are you asleep yet? I’ve brought you some grub,”


    Louisa murmured gently.


    “Not yet.”


    Arabe’s slender fingers tapped a few keys before she shut herptop, got up, and opened the door.


    “I figured you might not have eaten much since you had a date with Romeo, so I asked the cook to


    whip up something for you.”


    Arabe looked at the tray, rather surprised “Barbecue?”


    “I heard kids your age are crazy about this stuff. Take a whiff; it smells good, doesn’t it?” Louisa put the


    tray down, beaming at her.


    Arabe picked up a piece of meat, instinctively offering it to Louisa.


    “I’m not big on this. You enjoy! You’ve been working your tall off these past couple of days, dealing with


    all thatpany stuff. You just got back home; you haven’t had time to chill.”


    “No sweat,” Arabe said, chowing down. “It’s kind of fun.“,


    At least it wasn’t as dull as school.


    Louisa was reassured by her words: “Just delegate those minor tasks. Let’s go shopping, have

    afternoon tea, get a facial. We could even go on a short trip or a long one. Anywhere you like, we’ll

    Arabe looked up and gave a slight smile. “Sure.”


    “Still getting used to living here? Anything you want to change? Like, is the bed too hard? Curtains not


    dark enough? Any decor you don’t like? Or maybe the food.” “Everything’s cool.”


    Louisa couldn’t fathom why the Murphys were so hard on this well–behaved, understanding girl!


    Such a darling.


    “I heard Phillip sent over afternoon tea for you today.”


    Arabe looked up, surprised. How did she know about this?


    Louisa was all smiles. “Grandpa Phillip personally called your dad, asking what kind of afternoon tea


    you like. You just got back; we’re still figuring out your preferences. Good thing we have Romeo!”


    Arabe was taken aback.


    ‘Romeo knows your likes and dislikes like the back of his hand. I can tell he’s really into you. Whenever


    he looks at you, it’s like you’re the only one in his eyes. With a partner like that, you’re bound to have a


    happy future.“.


    Louisa’s hand gently rested on Arabe’s, her eyes shifting to the bracelet on her wrist.


    We’ve known Romeo for years; he’s always been reserved, cold, and serious, he hardly cracks a smile.


    But he’s like a different person around you; the love and tenderness in


    is eyes. We’ve never seen that before.“.


    And we’ve never heard of him designing bracelets for a girl. You should get him something in return;


    don’t let his feelings go in vain.”


    Sure.” Arabe obediently nodded, her gaze falling back to the butterfly bracelet on her wrist. The


    dazzling diamonds sparkled under the light, just like Romeo’s clear and evoted eyes.


    he realized she hadn’t really given Romeo anything..
