The Princess and the Pauper

Chapter 1913

From the video David posted, she heard her grandparents' laughter filling the air, and the beaming

smiles of Kenneth and Louisa.

Their smiles were genuine, not a hint of pretense.

She hadn't expected that losing her would have no impact on their lives. They carried on, feasting and

toasting, celebrating the year with such abundance.

A pang of discomfort twisted in Serena's chest. There she was, battered and bruised, freshly snatched

from death's clutches, while her once-loving parents and grandparents laughed heartily without her. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

They truly didn't care about her absence.

Serena watched the video over and over, each viewing stinging more than the last. Memories of

belongings discarded like trash, of past joys and happiness, sowed the seeds of resentment deep in

her heart.

After lunch, they brought flowers and went to pay respects to Grannie Grace.

Once arrived at the graveyard, they were surprised to find that the stone was clean and there were

flowers in front of the stone. Who could possibly remember Grannie Grace?

The others shared his surprise. The Murphy family, clearly the culprits, wouldn't bother.

Who could it be?

Once Arabella spotted the unique wrapping paper on the bouquets, she knew it was Romeo.

That wrapping, those flowers—only one florist in the area carried them, and she had taken Romeo

there once. To her surprise, he had not only remembered but also brought flowers to honor Grannie

Grace.

"It's Romeo, no need to guess," she declared.

Hearing Arabella's words, everyone was somewhat shocked.

Louisa was especially moved, "Romeo remembered! That boy is so thoughtful."

She hadn't expected him to be the first to honor Grannie Grace..

Bernard and Cornelia couldn't help but feel teary-eyed as they expressed their gratitude to Grannie

Grace.

Darren and Belinda sincerely thanked Grannie Grace for her kindness to Arabella.

Kenneth and Louisa were moved to tears.

"She was Bella's grandmother, and that makes her ours too. We'll honor her every year," David

promised.

"Bella's doing well now, Grannie. You can rest easy," Hans added.

"We'll all take good care of her, just like you did," Chasel affirmed.

"I'll lay down my life to protect her," Sean vowed.

"Tomorrow is Bella's homecoming celebration. Her true identity no longer needs to be hidden. That

way, Grannie Grace, you can rest peacefully," Clark said.

Arabella said, "Grannie, I'm doing well. I have my family and Romeo. You can be at peace."

A gentle breeze seemed to whisper Grannie Grace's tender reply.

Arabella spoke quietly, then left with everyone else.

She messaged Romeo and confirmed it was indeed him who had sent the flowers to Grannie Grace.

Warmth flooded her heart.
