The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 1962

It was high noon, and the stomachs of the guests at the grand banquet were beginning to grumble. As the waitstaff brought out dish after dish of delectable fare, not only did those seated at the tables salivate, but even the folks watching through their screens were drooling.

[Man, this spread is even fancier than what I had at my own wedding yesterday.]

[The crazy part is, they've already served eleven courses, and the waiters are still bringing more. There are only eight people at a table, how many more dishes are there to come?]

[I'm shedding tears of poverty here.]

Arabella was seated with her parents, along with her grandparents and maternal grandparents.

Her brothers and sister-in-laws had their own table.

Her uncles and aunts were grouped together.

And then there were the various close and distant relatives who had all turned up.

All the journalists and photographers wished they could eat faster, eager to make time to interview other distinguished guests.

Today's guest list surpassed a thousand, and not a single one was an ordinary person. To be seated here today meant you were a figure of significant influence!

[After they took the young girl inside, the manager had the store closed, and about seven or eight staff members were at their service. Not many people got to see them, but I remembered that young girl's face!]

[How do I put it, that girl was so stunning, and now I can finally tell all the people out there, it was Arabella! George and Jennifer had been taking her shopping for a long time, and they seemed to dote on her a lot!]

The story caused another sensation, crashing the system once again!

A former shop assistant who had served Jennifer and Arabella, known as "Kitty," also came forward to share, [Jennifer brought this girl to our store once, and their relationship was so close. Anything attractive or suitable, Jennifer would buy for her. The driver couldn't even keep up, making multiple trips to load the purchases into the car. In the end, George had the driver take a load of stuff home first and then come back for them.]
