The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 408

Chapter 408 

Yolanda Murphy, sitting in the hall, thought she was seeing things. She rubbed her eyes quickly, and in the next second, Arabella and a man disappeared from sight. 

“You asked me to come out and said you had something to talk about face–to–face. Well, I’m here now. Spit it out.“. 

Across from Yolanda, Zachary was no longer the gentle soul he once was. Instead, he seemed distant and cold.

It had been a while, and Yolanda noticed that the man she loved had completely changed. There was no hint of sadness on his face. Instead, he calmly pulled out a divorce agreement and placed it in front of Zachary. 

“Zachary, don’t worry, I’m not here to hassle you. This is the dissolution of our engagement agreement. I’ve already signed it.” 

Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed across Zachary’s face. Suppressing his inner turmoil, he picked up the agreement. It was filled with Yolanda admitting her mistakes, voluntarily giving up on marrying Zachary, and protecting the reputation and dignity of the Panter family. 

This, in turn, made him feel a bit guilty and uneasy! 

“Sorry, Zachary, I made a mistake. I plagiarized my sister’s music, causing you and your family to feel ashamed. Even though everyone makes mistakes, I made you unable to hold your head high in front of others and made you feel uncomfortable in front of your uncles and aunts. That’s on me!” 

After Yolanda finished speaking, she took out a fancy bag and put it in front of Zachary. 

“This is a gift I prepared privately. I was planning to announce it at the engagement party, but it seems I won’t be needing it now.” Yolanda gave a self–deprecating laugh, saying, “Consider it a memento.” 

With that, Yolanda pulled her hand back. 

Only then did Zachary notice that several of her fingers were bandaged. He asked with concern, “Did you hurt yourself while knitting?” 

Yolanda withdrew her hand, saying indifferently, “That’s not important. The important thing is that the thing I knitted is a bit ugly, not like the name brands you can get at the mall. If you think it’s ugly, just chuck it!” 

“No, it’s beautiful.” Zachary’s heart was deeply moved by her, and his initial decision began to waver.. 

“I was too naive before, thinking that as long as I truly loved you, we could be together forever. But I overlooked the fact that the Murphy family’s troubles are getting worse and my social status is no longer fitting to stand beside you.” 

Her words made Zachary feel like he was a person who valued power and wealth, abandoning his old love. 

“Zachary, I hope you find a girl who is your equal. She won’t be as stupid as me, thinking that loving you wholeheartedly is enough. She will greatly help your career.” 

She also hinted that Zachary would never find someone like her in the future, someone who loved purely!
