The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella)

Chapter 1382

Chapter 1382

On the other side of town, Martin was driving Serena around, feeling as if he were living in a dream. It all seemed surreal.

Serena had texted him earlier: [Let's hang out.

At first, Martin thought he'd read the message wrong. It wasn't until after he'd reread it dozens of times that he believed it was

real.

This was the first tine Serena had ever asked him out!

And it was the first tshe had responded to his long-standing affection for her.

"Serena, where would you like to go?" Martin asked gently, glancing at the girl in the passenger seat.

Serena appeared indifferent. "I don't care."

She was just bored of hanging around her aunt's house and was looking for something to kill time.

"Feeling down?" Martin picked up on her mood. ‘Is something bothering you? Did someone upset you?"

Serena didn't want to answer, and Martin didn't press. Instead, he suggested, "How about we go to the lavender fields?"

Serena remembered how, a long tago, Louisa suspected her of having improper thoughts about Romeo. To dispel any doubts,

Martha had lied, claiming Serena had a boyfriend.

To keep the lie from unraveling, Serena had even hinted to Martin that there was a new movie she wanted to see.

At that time, Martin was dealing with sbusiness at Dawnstar's subsidiary and, upon hearing her suggestion, had immediately

flown back.

He had asked her over the phone if she liked Dawnstar and mentioned that he wanted to take her to see the lavender fields there

someday, but Serena had given him a non-committal answer.

Now, Martin was bringing up the lavender again, which surprised Serena. She looked at him. "You remembered?"

“I said | would take you; Martin affirmed, remembering his promise like it was written in crystal.

But Serena's eyes dimmed. How wonderful it would be if Romeo treated her the sway.

At the Dawnstar lavender fields.

After parking the car, Martin gently tugged on Serena's sleeve, careful not to hold her hand in case she didn't like it.

Even though he was being a perfect gentleman, Serena couldn't help but feel a bit repulsed, though she didn't show it.

As they approached the entrance, a security guard informed them, "Sorry, the fields are privately booked today."

Serena was taken aback. How could such vast lavender fields be booked out just like that?

Glancing inside, she saw a dozen bodyguards standing by, and amidst the lavender, there was only one couple - Romeo and

Arabella, by their silhouettes and postures!

Especially Arabella, who was wearing the soutfit as she had that morning!

Serena's expression changed instantly. What were they doing here on a date?

A few photographers ran towards them, seemingly discussing photo arrangements.

They booked such an expansive field of lavender just for a photoshoot?

Martin conversed fluently in French with the security guard, trying to negotiate. He offered to pay the sprivate booking fee to

use just a small corner of the field, wanting only to take a walk with his girlfriend.

The guard explained it was impossible because the person who had booked the field had a prestigious status, and they couldn't

afford to offend them.

Martin didn't want to give up and continued to discuss with the guard.

Meanwhile, Serena overheard Romeo's voice coming through the loudspeakers, "Bella, this piano piece is composed just for you.

I've said it many times, but at this moment, | still want to tell you, | love you."
