The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 2145

Unfolding the contents of the box, Kenneth and Louisa discovered a thick stack of property deeds, share transfer documents, villa keys, and a set of car keys, and so forth.

There was also a letter.

“Dear Brother and sister-in-law, please allow us this one last occasion to address you as such. We acknowledge that we no longer deserve the titles of your siblings. Enclosed you’ll find all of our assets, which have been transferred into your names. The bank cards are already in your possession, and the PIN is Beverly’s birthday. We wish you all the best in everything and feel incredibly fortunate to have been part of your family. We can only hope that in another life, the heavens grant me and Beverly the chance to repay your kindness. Take care, brother and sister-in-law, and to everyone, we are truly, profoundly sorry.”

After reading the letter, Kenneth and Louisa couldn’t help but feel a mix of emotions.

At that moment, Kenneth’s phone rang, and an urgent voice came from on the other end.

“Mr. Collins. Your brother and sister-in-law have turned themselves in at the station. They confessed everything.”

How should he handle this.

It sounded like a private family matter for the Collins family, yet it entailed serious crimes like hiring someone to commit murder, each of them sounding like a capital crime.

“Let them be,” Kenneth said, not wanting to get too involved and was about to end the call.

“Mr. Collins. They could be detained. If the facts of the case are confirmed to be their doing, they might be sentenced to life imprisonment, or even death.”

“Whatever happens to them from now on, it’s not my concern. Handle it as you see fit.” With that, Kenneth hung up the phone.

As the new school year began, Arabella returned to a campus abuzz. Her previously hidden identity now revealed, she had become somewhat of a celebrity within the school. The holiday period had seen her friends Yolanda and Serena frequently trending on social media, almost all of the posts related to her.
