The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 1190

Chapter 1190

Romeo's gaze bore into Carl from across the room, leaving Carl no option but to spill the beans.

“Every morning there are over ten, and the same in the afternoon. On a busy day, we could be dealing with three dozen at the very least."

After finishing his confession, Carl quickly lowered his head, not daring to catch a glimpse of his boss's expression.

Romeo snorted coldly. He thought, "Very well, Carl, who pays your wages? Do you dare to betray me? Do you think you're above the law because Bella's got your back?"

"Every day?” Arabella’s face lit up with interest.

“I'm completely unaware. Even if it were true, I wouldn't have noticed,’ Romeo immediately affirmed, "I'm not interested in anyone else."

“Where's the stuff?" Arabella's lips curled into a teasing smile, her eyes falling on Carl.

Romeo sent another pressure-filled look in Carl's direction, as if to say: try bringing the stuff out.

“Are you threatening him?" Arabella asked, her interest piqued at Romec's glare.

“Not at all. I just don't want to upset you." he replied, careful not to show any temper in front of the young woman.

Carl turned around and brought a pile of items over. “These are from this morning. I didn't have a chance to get tid of them yet"

Usually, he would dispose of such things before Romeo came to work, tossing them in the trash bin.

He still remembered the early days when Romeo took over the company. There were so many gifts and tokens of affection from admirers every day that Romeo had been rather irritated and declared he didn't want to see these things anymore.

Since the gifts kept coming, Carl had no choice but to dispose of them every day to keep them out of Romeo's sight.

Over time, Romeo himself forgot about his original words.
