Chapter 1769


    Louisa hurriedly ushered her into the house.


    "Are Grandma and Grandpa here, and Uncle and Auntie too?"


    Arabe had noticed on the helipad that there were two more choppers, both belonging to her uncle.


    But why were there two? Did Uncle and Auntiee separately from Grandma and Grandpa? Why


    would they do that??


    "Yes, they''re all here, just waiting to see you."


    As Louisa led Arabe into the main house, they bumped into Eunice. Eunice immediately stepped


    forward and gave Arabe a gentle hug.


    "Good to have you back safe and sound." She patted Arabe''s head and then nced at Romeo,


    "You made it?"


    "Aunt Eunice." Romeo greeted her with the respectful affection of a younger family member.


    Eunice smiled and nodded, "Stay for dinner tonight. Your Grandpa and Grandma are here along with


    your uncle. It''ll be lively with everyone around."


    "With all that''s happened at home, I''m sure there''s a lot you want to tell Be. I won''t stay, I''ll join you


    all for the new year dinner."


    Arabe was puzzled.


    "Alright," Eunice said with a smile, lifting her red lips, "but at least have some hot cocoa before you go,


    someone?"


    A servant immediately brought over two cups of hot cocoa, cing one in front of Romeo and one in


    front of Arabe.


    Louisa held Arabe''s hand, expressing warm concern, and as she spoke, tears of sympathy began to


    fall.


    Arabe hadn''t revealed the true faces of Serena, Erik, and Martha to the family because, firstly, there

    wasn''t enough evidence, and secondly, the matter hadn''t been significant enough to cause a stir like it


    had now, which was necessary to make the family give up on Serena entirely.


    Thirdly, she feared her parents would be heartbroken, as they were now, after all, they had raised


    Serena for eighteen years.


    "It''s all our fault." Louisa began to embrace Arabe, then suddenly remembered something, "Right, we


    must call the doctor to check Be, she''s been hurt."


    Several doctors approached with their medical bags, and the family crowded around Arabe.


    Today, she wore a loose sweater, and if they rolled up the sleeves, they could see the white bandages


    on her arms.


    Perhaps Louisa had hugged her too tightly earlier, causing the wound to reopen and stain the white


    bandage with spots of red.


    Tears welled up in Louisa''s eyes again, "I''m so sorry."


    Arabe knew her mother was overly sensitive after enduring so many blows in such a short period.


    Arabe reassured her, "It''s okay, it doesn''t hurt at all."


    Hearing her daughter''s thoughtful words, Louisa''s tears flowed once more.


    Such a caring, lovable child, she thought. In contrast, the child that Erik and Martha had brought into


    the world was nothing short of disappointing.


    Some people were just ungrateful, no matter how well you treated them.


    Her sensibility was heart-wrenching.


    The doctor carefully treated Arabe''s wound and rebandaged it. Arabe thought to herself that the


    bandaging was adequate and let it be.


    Afterward, Louisa and Eunice asked Arabe about the details of her kidnapping, along with some past


    events.


    Seeing they had more to discuss, Romeo excused himself.


    "I''ll walk you out," Arabe offered as she stood up.


    Romeo knew she was worried about her family asking for more details about the ''triangr zone'',


    which would cause them distress and guilt.


    So he said, "Sure, then Aunt Eunice, Mrs. Collins, I''ll be off now."


    "Romeo, don''t forget toe over for the dinner." Louisa said invitingly, "I''ll have your portion


    prepared."


    "Thank you, Mrs. Collins," Romeo replied, then nodded to Eunice before picking up Arabe''s coat,


    which was draped over a sofa, and helping her into it, careful not to let her catch a chill as they stepped


    out.
