"Bella, | just learned that you're both Dr. Bell and the perfect scorer."

Donna's words made Cathy pause mid-peel on her shrimp. Perfect-scorer? What?

The whole family knew about Arabella being Dr. Bell, but none had any clue about her other accolade. And a perfect-scorer at that!

Cathy knew how tough the tests were back home, and she never imagined her sister-in-law, of all people, could nail a perfect

score. Aside from her big brother, Bella was the second person in recent years to achieve such a feat. They both were just too

impressive.

"Guess what else Bella does?" Phillip chimed in, grinning ear to ear as he played the tease. After several wrong guesses from the

crowd, he couldn't help but spill, "My favorite artist, Mirabelle, and the calligrapher Labella—it's her!"

All of them present were doubly surprised.

Even the usually composed Luna and the always cool-headed Jeffery were taken aback by Bella's dual identity.

"And that's not all, Bella is also Maestro Melody." Shirley said with a beaming smile, "The ringtone on my phone? She composed it

just for me."

"My ringtone's her work too," Phillip couldn't hide his joy, reminiscing about the tShirley had Arabella's piano composition as

her ringtone and he didn't, feeling a tad bit jealous. But Arabella had promised to create a special piece for him, and sure enough,

she sent him a delightful melody not long after.

"All my chess and golf buddies rave about it, always asking for the title, and | tell them it's a unique piece composed by my

granddaughter-in-law, impossible to find online. They're green with envy!" Phillip boasted with pride.

This was a tune crafted for him by Bella herself!

Unique to him alone!

"Bella is truly extraordinary. So young, yet so learned and talented. A real bright spark." Donna's smile was warm and inviting,

"Having such a wonderful girl join the McMillian family is indeed a blessing for us."

"You can say that again. So capable and yet so modest. I've really taken a shine to her." Jennifer piled more food onto Arabella's

plate, "Darling, eat while it's hot, have a little more."

Jeffery couldn't believe that this elegant woman before him had so many personas.

He too often listened to Melody's piano works and admired Mirabelle's paintings, never imagining they were created by the same

person.

How many times had he been captivated by the brilliance in those paintings, or enchanted by the latest piano composition, wishing

to meet these masterful artists?

Little did he know, these masters were one and the same, and his future sister-in-law at that.

Jeffery averted his gaze from the girl's refined appearance, feeling a tinge of melancholy.

Luna hadn't encountered someone so talented and captivating for a long time. Learning of Bella's many identities, she was

surprised but felt an increased fondness.

After snapping out of her daze, Cathy carefully placed a peeled shrimp into Arabella's plate. "Bella, you're so incredible. No wonder

Grandma said your virtues are as numerous as the stars in the sky. She wasn't just being kind. You truly are amazing, utterly

admirable."

Initially, Cathy thought Bella was just snouveau riche heiress from a humble background.

She had no idea she was in the presence of a top-tier boss!

Donna laughed, "All of you should take a leaf out of Bella's book."

As the meal concluded, everyone moved to the living room where Shirley had invited a series of entertainers—a sketch comic, a

magician—each taking their turn to perform.

Sacts had everyone in stitches, while the magician's tricks drew gasps of wonder.

Romeo watched the joy on Arabella's face, his own lips curving into an involuntary smile.
