The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 1960

The online buzz started with a single post from a user named AAAlex.

[Wait, what? That's a thing?]

[Romeo's such a gent, standing up for Arabella back then!]

[Arabella’s cool too, y'know? If Grace really got done in by the Murphys, and here she is, no blood relation, yet she's got the guts to speak up. Strong, brave, and conscientious—puts Serena to shame, doesn't it?]

[Grace was definitely offed by the Murphys! It's all over town! Once upon a time, Tranquil City's tycoon Attlee and his wife Olga got locked up for it. Heard they're facing the chair this year. They've got a daughter, Yolanda, studying in College Town. Rumor has it her engagement party turned into a brawl when her private life got aired out. Her face ended up looking like a tenderized steak.]

[Yep, that's the scoop. I was at the engagement party, can confirm it all. Before the fiasco, Yolanda was already playing the field, which ticked off her fiancé's parents big time. They gave her a piece of their mind right there. The whole thing was a circus. Then it came out that Grace was a Murphy casualty, and next thing you know, cops are carting Attlee and Olga away.]

No sooner had the hashtag #Yolanda hit third place on the trending topics.

Yolanda, who had been enjoying the drama, went from green with envy over Arabella to pure panic.

She hadn't seen this coming, that the spotlight would swing her way.

Her social media was bombarded with angry messages.

Then AAAlex was back with more tea: [Nobody knew about Romeo and Arabella back when Yolanda and Zachary's engagement blew up. But those of us who were there knew Serena was old news.]

No sooner had AAAlex spilled the beans than another user, Butterfly, chimed in.
