Chapter 1386


    Arabe chuckled, "Wow, even the great lover Romeo surrenders."


    “In your presence, I''m always the vanquished, never the victor," Romeo''s voice was a soft baritone,

    filled with adoration as he gazed into her eyes.


    There was something about the way he looked at her that made Arabe realize that being the focus of


    such tender and loving eyes was all she could ever ask for in this lifetime.


    The hot air balloon gently touched down on the earth.


    Once again, Romec''s lips found Arabe''s in a kiss.


    She could feel the softness and the sweetness of his kiss, his breath near, right in front of her.


    Serena, who had just managed to cheer herself up, felt her mood sour again.


    The photographer, capturing the moment, thought to himself: “What a photogenic pair, every shot is a


    masterpiece. They barely need any retouching."


    As Romeo led Arabe out of the basket, the photographer couldn''t resist snapping several more


    pictures.


    Holding Romec''s hand, Arabe walked forward, her peripheral vision catching Serena nearby.


    "Hey, what a coincidence." Serena offered a feigned greeting to Arabe.


    But Arabe didn''t respond, simply withdrawing her gaze indifferently.


    “My girlfriend is saying hello to you,’ Martin pointed out, causing Romeo to halt.


    Romeo had been surrounded by photographers and bodyguards, so he hadn''t immediately noticed


    others around them.


    “Are you speaking to my fiancée?" There was an unmistakable sharpness in Romeo''s voice, a warning


    to anyone who dared challenge him.


    The head of security never imagined that the couple he let in to enjoy was Serena and her boyfriend!


    This was a disaster.


    It was his oversight, not realizing who he was admitting.


    After all, he thought Arabe had a particr distaste for Serena.


    "My fiancée''s choice to respond or not is her own,’ Romeo said with a steely look in his eyes.


    Yet Martin chuckled, "Mr. McMillian, have you considered the feelings of your ex-fiancée?"


    Romeo scoffed at the mention of "ex-fiancée” "My fiancée has always been one and the same."


    He pulled Arabe forward, formally introducing her, “This is she."


    Arabe was speechless.


    "I''m not sure who this ex-fiancée is."


    Serena saw the argument unfolding and, realizing Martin''s status wasn''t going to help, feared making a


    spectacle of herself.


    Worried that Romeo might reveal her background as the Collins family''s adopted daughter, she tugged


    at Martin''s sleeve, murmuring, "Let it go."


    "In the face of new love, ald mes can be denied. Mr. McMillian, you truly are heartless and faithless,”


    Martin said with a hint of disdain.


    As aman, to deny even those he''s loved, seemed to Martin like ack of honor.


    Though he didn''t know why the families’ engagement had been abruptly called off, Serena had once


    loved Romeo deeply. Now, as Romeo walked hand in hand with his new love, treating Serena as if she


    didn''t exist, oblivious to her feelings.


    What was there to admire about such a man?


    Romeo nced coldly at Serena before indifferently averting his eyes, saying icily, "She and I were


    never even childhood sweethearts. There was no love, so how can there be talk of new or old?"


    “Martin!” Serena tugged at his sleeve, desperate to end the embarrassing scene.


    If Martin saw how little regard Romeo had for her, he would surely think all the wonderful things she


    had boasted about before were lies.
