Chapter 1405
"The McMilliand is quite the catch. I''m looking forward to raising a ss at your wedding someday
soon."
Romeo''s eyes softened as he gazed at the girl before him, her long eyshes framing her bright,
smiling eyes.
"Uncle Sampson, Romeo and I are also looking forward to celebrating your big day,’ Arabe
interjected before he could respond, "But enough about that for now, I''ve got to run."
Sampson chuckled, turning to his excited mother who was already busy packing for tomorrow''s trip. It
was clear that it had been a long while since she''d been this happy.
"Is Grandmaing over tomorrow?" Romeo asked quietly after they had hung up.
"Yeah, she should be here by noon,’ Arabe put her phone away. "It''s gettingte, you should head
back."
"You''re kicking me out already?” Romeo feigned disappointment, knowing that once Grandma arrived,
it might be hard to spend time with Arabe. He wondered when they would see each other next.
"Who knows? Maybe Grandma will want to see you tomorrow and we''ll meet up again,’ Arabe
reassured him, seemingly reading his thoughts.
"What does Grandma like? I want to prepare a gift, just in case I get the chance to give it to her in

person,” Romeo said, then added, “And what about your grandpa, uncle, and aunt?"
"Trying to charm the whole family in one go?"
"Well, if I''m going to take their precious granddaughter, niece under my wing, I''ve got to make a good
impression.” Romeo''s gaze was tender as he looked at Arabe.
From her room, Serena watched through the gap in the curtains as Romeo held Arabe in a lingering
embrace, his hands refusing to leave her for even a second.
He seemed so enamored with her.
A pang of envy struck Serena. She wondered what magic Arabe had cast to hold Romec''s heart so
firmly.
If only Arabe would share her secret.
Meanwhile, Romeo walked Arabe back towards the main house. As they strolled, Arabe''s gaze
lifted to the branches above, and whatever she said made Romeo crouch down so she could sit atop
his shoulders and reach for the blossoms.
Serena was stunned. A man of Romeo''s stature, allowing a girl to perch on his shoulders.
Arabe plucked a small branch of blossoms, several flowers adorning it, and softly asked to be let
down.
"If it''s pretty, take more,’ Romeo indulged her. "If you like, we can nt some in our future home."
Arabeughed, "Are you talking about Moon Vi or Be Vi?"
"Whichever you want. If you like Moon Vi, we''ll nt them there. If you prefer Be Vi, then there.
But if you don''t like either."
"Then we''ll find a new ce, as long as you love it” she finished his thought.
"That''s right. Now, let me help you down. Is it ufortable?"
"I just want to get down."
Romeo crouched to let her off, “Take it easy."
Once on the ground, Arabe''s hand was once again sped in his as they continued their walk,
fading from Serena''s sight. In just half a year, their rtionship had grown so close, so intimate.
Jealousy seethed within Serena. Without Arabe, maybe Romeo would have taken a liking to her.
She even believed she could win him over.
