The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 232

Chapter 232 

Oscar was totally stunned, unable to utter a single word. 

“This company, under your leadership, hasn’t made any progress. I was originally planning to shut it down. But since my daughter is on holiday with nothing to do, I thought I’d let her run it.” 

So casually handing over such a big company to his daughter. 

Hearing Kenneth Collins‘ words, Oscar’s mouth hung open wide enough to fit two eggs. 

“I never expected her to be so responsible, finding all these problems within the company! I’ve seen the evidence of your betrayal myself! Arabella Bennett didn’t falsely accuse you! You’re here ranting and raving, slandering her, and wanting to put her behind bars. Do you really think the Collins family wouldn’t protect her?” 

“No, no, Mr. Collins, you’re mistaken.” Oscar was instantly scared out of his wits. “I, I didn’t know that girl; no, I didn’t know Ms. Bella is your daughter.” If he had known, he would never have dared to act rashly! 

At that moment, he looked at Louisa’s icy face and suddenly realized that she and Arabella did bear some resemblance! 

Only that, Arabella exuded a stronger aura and was even more charming. 

“Mr. Collins, I was confused for a moment and did something to let down the company, to let you down.” Oscar simply admitted his guilt, hoping for a more lenient punishment. 

But before he could finish, Kenneth kicked him away, saying, “You’re a repeat offender; since the company opened, you’ve been messing up for a year!” “Mr. Collins, I was wrong! I was so stupid; you can hit me and scold me, but please don’t let me go to jail.” Oscar crawled over again, desperately begging at Kenneth’s trousers, “I have elderly parents, young children.” 

“Let go!” Kenneth kicked him away again, impatiently saying, “When you did those things, didn’t you think about your family?” 

Regretting now? Too late!! 

“I heard he often bullied Arabella in the company.” Louisa glanced at the man on the ground, then turned to the police officer beside her and said, “Please handle it properly; he’s been with our company for a while.” 

“Yes!” The officer nodded, his gaze on Oscar turning frosty. 

“No, ma’am, please take back your words; I know I was wrong.” Oscar tried to grab Louisa’s skirt. 

Fortunately, Kenneth pulled Louisa behind him just in time: “You dare touch my wife’s dress?” 

“No, no, I didn’t.” 

“If I don’t teach you a lesson, you won’t realize your mistakes!” Kenneth rolled up his sleeves and gave him a good beating. 

“Mr. Collins, please stop, stop.” Oscar covered his face with his hands and said, “You’re getting old; if you get hurt, I won’t be able to explain. If your sons come to settle accounts with me, I can’t bear it! Let someone else handle me. You calm down, calm down.” 

“Who were you just cursing?” Kenneth was panting, but he had no intention of letting him go. “Say it, who were you cursing?” 

“I, I, I was cursing myself.” 

“If you want to protect your family, admit to what you’ve done!” 

“Yes, Mr. Collins, whatever you say.” Oscar had no intention of resisting.
