The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 516

Chapter 516 

All the guests were once again taken aback, chiming in: 

“Absolutely, the event was a smashing success. If anyone asks tomorrow, I’ll tell them the donation segment tonight was unforgettable.” 

“Indeed, the Murphy family are as tight as a drum, and I must spread the word about this.” 

“Nothing else noteworthy happened, right?” 

“My memory is stuck at the donation part.” 

“Same here.” 

“I’ve had quite a bit to drink tonight. probably won’t remember anything tomorrow.“” 

Erlinda watched as they each tried to cover their own backs and said with a smile, “I won’t see you out then.” 

“Goodbye, Ms. Archer.” 

“Goodbye.” 

At this time, screams came from the Murphys in the back garden, but the other guests seemed not to hear. They were busy cracking jokes and leaving the front garden without a glance in the direction of the Murphys‘ trouble! 

‘Arabella, is this your fiancé?” Erlinda reached out to shake hands with Romeo, flashing a triumphant smile, “Can’t believe this lad is my niece’s fiancé!” 

“Pleased to meet you, Auntie.” 

“You’ve got good manners, lad! I don’t feel odd when Arabella calls me auntie, but somehow, when you call me that, I feel I’ve aged a few years!” 

“Auntie, you’re as radiant as ever. You’ve not aged a bit.” 

“Did you sweet–talk my Arabella into being with you?” Erlinda joked, then turned to Arabella, “I’m looking forward to your wedding.” 

That was her stamp of approval! 

“Not so soon.” Arabella didn’t reject the idea, which surprised Erlinda. 

“We’ve caused some trouble for Ms. Archer tonight.” Kenneth didn’t expect the charity dinner to turn out like this. 

“Isn’t it because it’s my turf that I could stand up for Arabella? I’ve been wanting to teach them a lesson, and it’s a relief that the Panter lad beat me to it.” 

“We’ll visit again when we get the chance.” Louisa hugged Erlinda warmly, “Feel free to drop by our place too.” 

“I’ll definitely come once I find the time.” Erlinda hugged back, then hugged Arabella. 

“Don’t be too hard on those three,” Arabella warned not to kill them. 

“Don’t worry, I’ll leave them breathing! I’d love to see them go bankrupt, and it’ll be fun.” 

Seeing Erlinda’s excited face, Arabella couldn’t help but laugh, “We’ll be going now.”
