The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 1767

As tears welled up in Louisa's eyes again, she quickly reached up to wipe them away. "Why bring her up? I'm just heartbroken over Bella's situation."

She revealed the truth about Bella being the leader of Mafia Flame, and the grandparents couldn't believe that their granddaughter was someone so significant.

It was a reputation hard-earned through blood and tears.

All those loyal people following her showed how she was worthy of their love and respect.

Their granddaughter was truly remarkable.

It was heart-wrenching.

The grandparents silently wiped away their tears, proud and yet just as pained for their granddaughter's plight as Louisa.

"Where has she gone? Why don't I see her?" Belinda scanned the room, not spotting her beloved granddaughter.

If she wasn't busy, she would have definitely been here to greet them.

"She's on her way back from overseas, should be here in a few hours. Let's go inside to talk," Louisa suggested, taking coats from the servants and helping her mother and father put them on.

Eunice wrapped the scarves she had prepared around their necks.

The weather was getting colder, and they linked arms with the elders, guiding them into the main house where a fireplace warmed the room.

Darren, having weathered many storms over the years, sipped his tea before asking, "What's to be done about that child?"

Louisa knew he was referring to Serena and glanced at her sister-in-law.

Eunice nodded, encouraging her to speak. Louisa began, "Mom, Dad, you've already heard about her character from my sister-in-law, but what I'm about to tell you might be too much to bear. I hope you're prepared."
