The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 416

Chapter 416 

Arabella hid behind Romeo, looking at his handsome profile She suddenly felt a warmth in her heart. 

One by one, the enemies fell under his fists Arabella was a bit puzzled. These guys were so weak. Who gave them the guts even to try and assassinate them? 

These guys needed some serious training when they got back. They were so weak, and it’s laughable. 

Before long, Romeo kicked the last enemy into the comer of the wall. The man screamed in pain, his head bleeding from the impact 

Listening to the painful screams echoing throughout the room, Romeo softly told the girl behind him, “Bella, turn around and cover your ears.” 

“Okay” Arabella knew what was about to happen and obediently followed his command. 

Romeo’s eyes filled with a cold light. He stomped on one of the men’s hands, his voice icy, “Who sent you here?” 

“Ah The man fainted from the pain of hearing his own bones breaking. 

The others were terrified. They all tried to run toward the exit, trying to escape. 

With barely any effort, Romeo sent the lid of a coffin flying towards them, causing another round of screams. 

“If you guys manage to escape and I have to drag you back here, you’re going to wish all you got was a beating,” he warned them, his voice cold and ruthless. 

Realizing they could not escape, they all fell to their knees, begging for mercy, their faces filled with fear. 

“Mr. Romeo, please spare us! We were just blinded by greed, and we weren’t thinking.” 

“We really don’t know who wants you dead.” 

“The person who hired us is very mysterious.” 

Before they could finish, Romeo stepped on the coffin lid, causing the men beneath it to scream in pain. 

“Today, you messed with my girl.” 

They were all shocked. Their eyes turned to the slender girl standing behind him. Was she important to Romeo? Were they on a date?? 

Did Romeo get this mad because they scared her? 

So did that mean Romeo cared more about her than his own life?? 

Before they can even process this, Romeo increased the pressure on the coffin lid. 

One of the assassins couldn’t take it anymore and spat out blood. 

The weight of the coffin lid was too much, and it was unbearable. 

“Still can’t remember? Huh?” Romeo’s voice seemed to echo from the depths of hell, sending chills down their spines. 

One of them was so scared he was shaking all over. He quickly confessed, “It’s Ethan Barlow! He paid a billion to take your life!” 

Ethan? 

He was one of Romeo’s competitors. Recently, they fought over a piece of land with a total area of 400,000 square meters. 

So it was Ethan who was behind all this?
