Chapter 1395


    The figure dissolved into a mist and slowly dispersed into the air.


    Arabe couldn''t grab hold of anything and burst into heartbreaking sobs right there.


    "Be, Be’ Romeo said softly, unable to bear the sight of her tear-streaked face. "Can you hear me?"


    Opening her tear-filled eyes, Arabe realized she was still nestled in Romeo''s arms, the boat gently


    gliding along Luminescent Brook, with the Emerald Tower, the surrounding buildings, and other boats


    all still in ce.


    What was missing was Grannie Grace.


    It had all been a dream!


    "What did you dream about?" Romeo gently wiped the tears from her eyes, his voice filled with


    concern. "You kept saying ‘don''t go, don''t leave’. Who was leaving?"


    Arabe was still enveloped in profound sadness, burying her face into Romeo''s chest to calm herself.


    Guessing the cause of her distress, Romeo said, “Was it Grandpa Alberto, or Grannie Grace?"


    Only those two could make her defenses crumble and reveal the vulnerable young girl within.


    “It was Grannie."


    "Did shee to see you?" he stroked her hair tenderly. “You must be worried about the surgery. She


    couldn''t bear to see you so troubled, so she came tofort you."


    A fresh tear shone in Arabe''s eye.


    "You''ve done everything you could. It''s not your fault. This condition has baffled medical history. You''ve


    been amazing."


    Arabe’s eyes reddened once more.


    “Dont cry now. Don''t make Grannie Grace worry, Romeo said as he tenderly wiped her tears away.


    After a while, Arabe spoke, "Grannie came to praise you."


    "To praise me?"


    "She said you''re a good man, that I''d be happy with you."


    Romeo was taken aback, his eyes warming. "I promise to take care of you, to not let your grandma


    worry. I''ll make you the happiest person."


    Arabe reached out and caressed his face.


    It was the first time she had touched him so intimately.


    Romeo covered her hand with his own, letting her explore his features while his eyes brimmed with


    deep affection.


    Time seemed to stand still until the boat neared the shore.


    Serena stormed off the boat, and Martin quickly followed her. "Serena, let me take you somewhere else


    to eat."


    Serena was too upset to think about food.


    Martin had overheard people on the boat praising Romeo and envying Arabe.


    After hearing too much of it, Serena hadn''t eaten a bite and couldn''t wait to leave.


    As they were about to get into their car, a group of bodyguards escorted Romeo and Arabe towards

    them.


    Their car was parked nearby, and Serena saw that Romeo was driving a limited edition sports car that


    had made headlines—a single model costing over ten million dors.


    Then she nced at Martin''s ride, a mere luxury car worth a million or so. Compared to Romeo, it was


    barely in the same league.


    Romeo didn''t notice anyone else in the parking lot. He opened the passenger door for Arabe,


    securing her seatbelt, and they shared a private joke, theirughter mingling with a kiss.


    Serena''s heart ached. She couldn''t fathom why Romeo was so enamored with Arabe, to such an


    extent!


    After a prolonged kiss, Romeo finally released her and climbed into the driver''s seat.


    The multi-million dor sports car sped off, followed by a convoy of bodyguards, leaving a cloud of


    exhaust in their wake.


    With her mood at rock bottom, Serena got into her car with a scowl.
