Chapter 334
Arabella wondered if she could just go back to her room.
“Everyone knows that the surveillance room is on the third floor! Is Ms. Bella avoiding our gazes on purpose just so she can sneak upstairs and delete the surveillance footage?”
Arabella was speechless
“Do you have any evidence” Edith was fuming
“And you don’t have any evidence that Ms Bella is innocent!”
“Enough” Louisa couldn’t stand it anymore, she glared at Lily and said, “You’re really pushing it, Lily Bella is my own flesh and blood, are you trying to stir up trouble between us? Are you itching to go back to your hometown and retire?”
“Madame Serena has always treated me well over the years. Now that she’s hurt, I can’t just stand by! If I’ve misunderstood Ms. Bella, I’m willing to apologize once things are cleared up. But for now, I need an explanation from Ms. Bella! How come you didn’t slip at the same spot Serena did?”
“Oh, because I saw the oil on the floor,” Arabella replied nonchalantly.
It wasn’t her fault the others didn’t see it!
“So she did know about the oil!” Lily seemed to think she had caught Arabella; she sneered, “I also want to ask, why would Mr. McMillan randomly look for Serena? Did you be? Mr. McMillan didn’t look for her at all! You made it up, your goal was to make Serena fall, wasn’t it?”
Upon hearing this, Serena looked at Arabella with suspicion. Did Arabella really lie to her?
Romeo didn’t look for her
No. If that was the case, she had to make Arabella pay!
“Why Romeo was looking for her, is that your business?” Arabella found it hilarious.
Lily knew Arabella was lying by her look. She smirked and said, “Romeo is of high status; of course I can’t ask. But Ms. Bella can!”
Was she hinting at giving Romeo a call?
“Lily” Just as Kenneth was about to tell her to pack up and leave, Arabella spoke up.
Fine, no problem.”
Arabella casually pulled out her phone, dialed Romeo’s number, and put it on speaker.

Serena was both nervous and hopeful that Romeo really did have something to talk to her about!
If it was Arabella who lied to her, she would never let her off the hook!
Soon, the call was answered.
“Bella”
Every time Romeo called Arabella’s name, his yoice was so charming that it was heart–fluttering, a bit teasing, and full of indulgence.
His voice was enchantingly melodious: “Have you eaten yet?”
“Not yet”
“Are you hungry?”
“Not hungry”
“Rare of you to call me” Romeo’s voice sounded pleased: “I was just thinking about you; what are you up to?”
Everyone was shocked!
Serena couldn’t believe how affectionate Romeo was towards Arabella in private!
“Im on speakerphone right now.” In order to prevent him from saying anything more intimate, Arabella went straight to the point: “Did you need something from Serena this afternoon?”
Speakerphone? Needed something from Serena?
Romeo quickly caught on “It wasn’t anything important.”
