The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 109

Chapter 109 

If something’s up with their relationship, how can Miss Serena still laugh? 

Can she even be in the mood to go buy afternoon tea? 

“Miss Serena is only eighteen, already so successful, born with a silver spoon, and her fiancé is pretty top–notch.” 

“She’s way better than us in every aspect.” 

“All right, all right, keep your voices down. If someone hears you, it’ll tarnish the company’s reputation!” 

Arabella walked into the office; the assistant Dean had already laid out the food he had brought back on a small table. 

Thirteen dishes in total. 

“Ms. Bennett, you’re here?” Dean lifted his head and respectfully said, “This is the food prepared for lunch 

Arabella looked at the food on the table, picked up the fish soup to smell it, then picked up a dish of corn kernels fried with small sausages to examine it, even separating the sausages with a fork. 

The color and smell of it cooled her gaze a bit. 

“Ms. Bennett, is the food still fresh?” Dean sensed Arabella’s dissatisfaction. 

“Let’s go to the cafeteria.” 

Seeing Arabella rushing towards the cafeteria, a few curious employees sneakily followed. 

Arabella arrived at the cafeteria, and a dishwasher was washing dishes. Two chefs were resting in the outdoor garden. 

They saw Arabella, not knowing who she was, but seeing Dean following behind, they guessed her identity. 

It must be the new CEO who recently made the employees nervous – Ms. Bennett. 

“Mr. Dean, is this Ms. Bennett?” One of the young chefs extinguished his cigarette on the sole of his shoe and asked. 

Seeing Arabella walk into the kitchen, Dean softly explained, “Ms. Bennett is just looking around. No need to be nervous.” 

When Arabella entered the kitchen, she saw it was dirty and messy. The young chef explained, “We haven’t had time to clean up after cooking lunch. Usually, it’s very clean. Last week, government staff came for inspection, and we got an A rating.” 

“Call your manager.” 

Hearing Arabella’s icy voice, the young chef was stunned and quickly said, “Our manager is usually not here…” 

“Then ask him to come over.” Arabella coldly said, “Immediately.” 

“Yes…” The young chef was intimidated by Arabella’s aura and quickly called the manager.
