The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 1340

Chapter 1340

Rose couldn't believe her eyes. Just moments ago, she had deliberately bumped into Arabella, causing the cupcake she was holding to fall to the ground, and now the whole debacle was playing out on the big screen.

She stood frozen for a good while before turning to the servant beside her in disbelief.

The servant was terrified; she had deleted the surveillance footage as per Rose's instructions. How on earth had this girl managed to recover it and even project it for all to see?

The guests around them began to murmur and gossip.

"So, it was that young lady who bumped into her on purpose, and then she had the nerve to accuse the other girl of doing it deliberately. Isn't that the pot calling the kettle black?"

“And she demanded a public apology. That's just too much."

"If it weren't for this girl knowing how to recover the surveillance footage, she would never have been able to clear her name, even with a hundred explanations."

"I've heard that Rose has been spoiled rotten since she was little, always acting so high and mighty. This seems like something she would do"

Bess stood nearby, stunned and burning with embarrassment. She couldn't believe that someone Eunice had brought along actually had some skills, even being able to recover surveillance footage.

Calvin, Arlen, and Teresa watched the scene unfold from a distance, each feeling a profound sense of embarrassment.

Trying to frame someone without covering all her bases and now being publicly humiliated?

"It seems to have been a misunderstanding.” Bess had to step in, offering a diplomatic smile. "Rose, did you have a bad night's sleep? Maybe you were just a bit distracted and didn't see Arabella there."

Rose had no choice but to take the out given to her, nodding her head pitifully. "Maybe I just remembered it wrong. I've been so forgetful lately."

“You mentioned Arlen wanted a lemon bar, right? Why don't you go get a couple more and bring them to him so he doesn't have to wait?"

Arabella, not willing to let them off the hook so easily, said coldly, "Framing someone and not even apologizing?"
