Chapter 36
“My grandpa wants to see you.” Romeo looked at Arabella, his magnetic voice gentle yet bewitching, “When are you free so we can go see him together?”
“If you’re uneasy going as my fiancée, you can just show some care on behalf of the Collins family,” Romeo added.
“What a great idea!” Kenneth hadn’t expected Romeo to be so smart.
“Yeah, you show some affection on behalf of the Collins family…” Louisa echoed.
Arabella thought,” So no one was asking for my opinion?”
“Bella, you should visit Phillip tomorrow then. You’ve been home for two days, it’s about time.”
After all, they were the ones who proposed the marriage, and Romeo is quite the catch.
That old man was still in the hospital, and it was said that his condition isn’t looking good… As a younger generation, she should pay a visit, showing some affection.
“Yeah, that’s right, go pay a visit,” Kenneth said with a grin, “Bring some gifts…”
“No need for gifts, just your presence is enough,” Romeo’s voice was clear.
“No, no, no, it’s our first meeting. We can’t skip the courtesy!” Kenneth insisted.
“Leave it to me then, Romeo gently looked at Arabella, “We’ll arrange the specific time later?”
Seeing the hopeful looks from her parents, Arabella finally agreed, “Alright.”
She’ll just check on Phillip’s recovery. After all, she did accept his blank cheque a few days ago.
Romeo casually said a few words before saying, “I won’t bother you guys anymore.”
“Are you leaving so soon? Romeo, you’ve brought so many gifts, this is…”
Before Louisa could finish her sentence, Romeo said, “Just a small token, please don’t take it to heart.”
“Bella, see Romeo out!”
Arabella was speechless.
Why did she have to see him out?!
“No need, Miss Collins, please stay.”
Seeing the faint smile on Romeo’s lips, Arabella raised an eyebrow. Was he annoyed that she only told him her first name and not her family name? Actually, she had only taken on this family name for two days, and she was still getting used to it.
“Get some rest, my fiancée.”
Fiancée? When did she agree to that??
Kenneth and Louisa were over the moon when they heard him!
It seems that Romeo is quite satisfied with Bella… This development is beyond their expectations!
Upstairs, Serena couldn’t hold back anymore and ran downstairs. In a place where no one could see her, she dashed towards the garden path, “Romeo…”
Seeing Serena rushing over, Carl immediately blocked her way, “Miss Serena, what’s wrong?”
Looking at Romeo’s retreating figure, Serena was in great agony, “Romeo, it was indeed my fault that your grandpa’s condition worsened. I feel really guilty… Thank you for not embarrassing me in front of my parents just now…”
Carl Was speechless.
Mr. McMillian just didn’t take you seriously, it’s not like he was deliberately not embarrassing this Miss Serena….
“I heard that your grandpa’s condition is not good, I want to go see him. When you pick up my sister tomorrow, can you take me with you?”
“No need,” There was a hint of coldness in Romeo’s eyes, “Grandpa wants to see my fiancée.”
He don’t want to see you.
