Chapter 40
...
Arabella was out of her mind when keeping Janelle company who was in a coma.
Kenneth hadn't come back since he slammed the door and left two days ago. Sharon told Arabella that he was on a business trip again.
Arabella knew that was Kenneth's excuse to make her not embarrassed and reassure Sharon.
Arabella didn't feel well until Leia called her.
As she answered the phone, she heard Leia say complacently, "Arabella, do you dare play with me at One Night tonight?"
Arabella wanted to get over her bad emotions. She wouldn't forget why she came back this time, since she still had a lot of things to deal with.
"Yes, I'll be on time tonight."
...
At One Night, Arabella entered the private room where Leia and Kelsey had already been.
Leia couldn't help but raise her hand and said, "Arabella, what can you see from my ring finger?"
Leia wore a big diamond ring.
Before Arabella responded, Kelsey pretended to feel surprised. "Leia, did Mr. Spencer give you the diamond ring? He used to offer you a diamond necklace for your birthday. He loves you so much!"
Leia looked at Arabella arrogantly and was eager to see her envy. "Yes, this is from Melvin. More importantly, Melvin will propose to me at a grand engagement party."
"Leia, I envy you so much, since each girl in Hardgrad dreams of marrying into the Spencer family."
Leia stared at Arabella. Unfortunately, the latter didn't show any admiration but listened to them lightly. Leia felt all her efforts were in vain.
"Arabella, though you look calm, you must have envied me very much, right? Melvin is my boyfriend. He loves me and won't love you!"
Arabella looked at Leia and replied lightly, "Don't worry. I don't love Melvin. In addition, I will give you a great gift at your engagement party."
What?
Leia thought Arabella was too poor to afford a gift.
At this moment, Arabella's phone rang. Here came a message.
It was from Melvin.
Arabella began to check it. "Come to One Night. I'm gonna show you something interesting."
Luckily, she was at One Night.
Arabella glanced at Leia and Kelsey and replied with her phone, "I'm at One Night. Come to find me in the private room."
After putting her phone in her bag, Arabella said, "Leia, come out with me. I have something to tell you."
"Why not say it here?" Leia murmured. However, she was so curious that she finally came out with Arabella.
Kelsey was left in the private room.
...
Kelsey felt very bored and secretly drank two cups of wine ordered by Leia.
Though it tasted good, its alcoholic strength was so high that it could make the drinker drunk easily.
As Kelsey was a bit drunk, Melvin entered the private room.
