Chapter 1374
"Ms. Be will know what to do. I''ll go fetch her!"
The servant had barely taken a step when Serena''s sharp voice cut through, "By the time you''re done
running around, Grandpa''s either going to be in agony or frozen stiff. Let''s see if he can stand up first,
we can talk about everything else back inside!"
Thest thing she wanted was to lose face in front of Be and she certainly didn''t want Be stealing
the spotlight!
"I''m fine.” Darren didn''t want his granddaughter to worry. He tried to stand, grimacing with the sharp
pain in his back, groaning several times before. With the help of his granddaughter and the servant, he
managed to get on his feet.
In the study.
Bard spoke softly to the girl before him, “How did you find evidence about all those past incidents?"
Some of these things happened months or even years ago, yet Arabe had managed to uncover
evidence of Calvin and Arlen’s schemes against her grandparents. It was no small feat.
"It was actually something I overheard from your staff. Only a few people knew about my grandparents’
travel ns. I had them list those people and started looking into them. Eventually, I cracked Mr.
rence''s phone, exported his chat logs with others, and traced the connections from there."
“You know how to crack into people''s phones?" Bard was surprised but nodded in acknowledgment,
"Makes sense. If you can tamper with multiple security systems, what''s a single phone to you?"
Bardughed, "Be, you keep impressing me. You''re going ces, kid"
“You tter me, Uncle Bard."
"How was Grandpa''s mood in the ORst night?" Bard couldn''t help but ask with concern.
“Disappointed, heartbroken, and furious,’ Arabe summarized sinctly, "But he came to terms with it
“That''s good to hear.” Bard sighed in relief, "I was worried about his emotional swings causing more
health issues when he called you to his roomst night."
"He was indeed unwell, with a headache and feeling irritable. I gave him some acupuncture, and he fell
asleep after that."
“Thank goodness for you." Bard looked appreciatively at the girl before him, "You''ve had to carry so
much on your slender shoulderstely. This family owes you a lot, and yet we still lean on you."
“You''re too kind, Uncle Bard. I''m happy to contribute to the family"
"Now that things have settled, once I wrap up a few loose ends, I''ll take you out for some fun"
Arabe smiled, "No need, Uncle Bard. You should spend time with Aunt Eunice when you''re free.
Romeo will take me out."
At the mention of Romeo, Bard paused, then smiled, “Ah, you''ve got ns with that young man, huh?
Here I am holding you up from your date. Go on then, enjoy your day with him. Don''t worry about us. I''ll

make sure Grandpa is well taken care of.
“with you and Aunt Eunice here, I''m not worried; Arabe beamed, "If there''s nothing else, I should get
going."
She didn''t want to keep Romeo waiting.
“Alright, have fun, Bard said warmly, watching her, "And bring Romeo by sometime. I''d like to meet him,
see how he treats you. Your wedding''s just around the corner."
Arabe cut him off before he could finish, "That''s jumping the gun."
"You''re practically engaged, and he''s chased you from Solterra to Dawnstar. How''s that jumping the
gun? If you say the word, I bet it''ll be a done deal in no time,’ Bardughed heartily.
"You''re just teasing me now, Uncle Bard. I''m off.’ Arabe wasn''t aware of the bashful, sweet smile
spreading across her face as she spoke.
It was the first time Bard saw his niece with such an expression, and his smile deepened, watching her
leave and thinking to himself, "That McMilliand is one lucky guy to have such an outstanding
partner."
After heading downstairs, Arabe sent Romeo her location. Before she could ask him toe over,
he immediately texted back, [I''ll be there in twenty minutes.]
A smile curled on Arabe''s lips, [No rush, I still need to check on Grandpa.]
