The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 988

Chapter 988

Logan and Taylor held no grudges against their children. In fact, they were relieved that Carol hadn't shown up.

“If you guys had showed up, we would have all ended up six feet under.

Thank goodness you didn't."

“Yeah, those guys just wanted to use us as bait. You'd have walked right into their trap! We don't need you guys to save us as long as you're safe and sound. We're willing even if it requires us to lay down our lives."

"Dad, Mom, how could you talk like that? If it means exchanging your lives for ours, we'd never choose to survive at such a cost"

The moment Carol finished her sentence, Logan's face took on a stern look.

He said, very solemnly, "Your mom and I would risk everything to protect you guys because we want you to live. Otherwise, how could we ever justify the sacrifices we've made?"

"Enough with the grim talk. We've just reunited.” Taylor returned to the kitchen to fetch some snacks to serve their guests.

Meanwhile, at Bella Villa.

This was the closest villa to Westerly College. Previously, Romeo had spent a fortune to build a lab for Arabella, hoping she would spend more time at the villa.

At this moment, Arabella was in the lab, working on separating toxins from blood samples. Two hours had passed in the blink of an eye.

Romeo knocked on the door, gently reminding her, “It's time for a break."

Seeing that the system wouldn't finish the analysis anytime soon, Arabella paused the process and opened the lab door.
