The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 1705

"Isn't she pretty?"

"More than that, she's got it all."

"I've never heard you rave about a girl like this before. I've gotta see her for myself one day. But, you know, I've recently met a girl who's pretty unique too."

Derrick looked like he was on cloud nine, having a spring in his step.

"What's so special about her?" Timothy wished for nothing more than for Derrick’s entire attention to be on this topic.

"Why don't we go inside and grab a seat?" Derrick suggested, and turned to Romeo, "Weren't you going to introduce us to your fiancée? Don’t you need to pick her up?"

"She's already here." Romeo teased, "You said the girl you met is really special, stunning, right?"

"Absolutely, I can guarantee you've never come across anyone as breathtaking in all your twenty-something years."

Romeo didn't buy it – the only woman who had ever taken his breath away was his Bella.

You couldn't find a second one with Bella's skills in the whole world, let alone with her beauty and grace.

Timothy didn't believe it either. The only person who had ever dazzled him was Romeo's fiancée, the woman he loved but couldn't have.

"Guess her job?" Derrick held the door to the coffee shop open for them to enter, grinning ear to ear, "You'll never guess."

"Artist? Writer? Celebrity?" Timothy blurted out, "Teacher? Lawyer? Doctor?"

"Eh, you guessed it right." Derrick laughed as they approached a table by the window. When his gaze met Arabella’s, he thought, what a coincidence. Dr. Bell? She's here too?
