The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 1559

As Arabella topped his plate with a slice of apple, she heard someone cheekily chime in, "If only you could pass me some chicken, it'd be even better."

After a meal filled with laughter and casual banter, Romeo finally took her hand and they made their exit.

The employees couldn't help but gossip once the pair were out of earshot.

"Goodness, our company's CEO is that young? He looks like he's barely in his twenties. So handsome!"

"He's even more dashing than in the corporate brochure!"

"And that girl with him is so pretty. Does anyone know who she is?"

"Aren't the McMillians and the Collins slated for a merger through marriage? Wasn't Romeo supposed to marry Serena? She definitely isn't Serena, what's the story here?"

"Who knows? Mr. McMillian's personal life is none of our business."

As Romeo and Arabella walked past the receptionists, they couldn't resist stealing glances at the couple, whispering excitedly among themselves, "Gosh, Mr. McMillian is so dashing!"

"That girl is stunning. They look so good together."

Arabella's beauty was undeniable and had always scored high marks.

"I always wondered who could possibly match Mr. McMillian in looks, and today we've got our answer."

"They've kept their relationship so secretive, there's not a peep online!"

"Should we post their picture online? People would love to see them together!"

"Do you think you're the only one with that idea? There's a reason nobody dares to post anything. No news online. there's a reason for that."

As the throng of people intensified, Romeo parted the crowd with his hands and murmured, "Entrance F is over there."

"Alright," Arabella replied. She had been in touch with David's assistant, who had told them to use the side door—entrance F.

Even though it was labeled a side entrance, it was still crowded with fans, and a few security guards were keeping watch.

After struggling to reach the F entrance, the guards recognized them just by their eyes. They were the VIPs the assistant had just texted them about, instructing them to let through.

Arabella showed the electronic tickets on her phone, but the guard barely glanced at it before waving them in quickly. With so many people around, opening the door could lead to a fan surge.

Many fans, seeing Arabella's ticket and realizing she was also a fan, cast envious and curious looks their way.

Some even followed up, asking if they knew the staff personally and if they could help deliver gifts to David.
