The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 859

Chapter 859

Lost in her own world, Arabella barely noticed the call.

With a swipe across the screen, Romeo's voice echoed from the other end, “Bella, you're still not home?"

It was already nine in the evening.

“Almost there."

“What have you been up to all day?"

“Just dealing with stuff” Arabella replied softly, “Just went out with Clark."

“What were you and Clark doing?"

Arabella couldn't exactly tell him that they had been out rounding up a few guys related to Clark's missing girlfriend.

If Romeo knew she'd been risking her neck, facing off with a handful of armed thugs, he'd definitely be mad.

“We just hung out."

“So, what kept you busy all day?"

Not picking up calls, only replying to one or two messages.

“I had a small task to complete."

Helping Clark find his girlfriend could be considered a task, right?

“Was it dangerous?"

“Not at all. It was easy.” Arabella added, “Just took up some time."

“Indeed, it took up time."

She'd vanished for an entire day. He would have sent someone to look for her if it wasn't for her message.

“Did you finish it?” Romeo asked, concern in his voice.
