The Princess and the Paupers

Chapter 304

In the plush cabin

Romeo had Arabella sitting on his lap, gently stroking her soft hair. “How many secrets are you hiding from me?” Arabella sheepishly avoided his gaze. “Not a lot,” she thought, “although more than the fingers on both hands.”

“Are you after the cinnamomum tenuis because of my grandma’s condition? Romeo asked softly, looking at the girl in his arms. “Did you know how serious her condition was when you were treating her? That she didn’t have much time left?”

“Yes”

“Why didn’t you tell me sooner? Romeo gazed into her eyes. “Or had you already decided to go to the triangular zone on your own to find the cinnamomum tenuis? Who told you that could save my grandma?”

“I read about it in a medical book a long time ago.”

Whether it could cure her or not, that would depend on his grandmother’s condition.

“The triangular zone is too dangerous. What am I supposed to do if something happens to you?” Romeo couldn’t bear to imagine.

“The ones in danger would be others.”

Yes.

His girl was a better shot than Carl. She took on the Cooper family’s goons all by herself, taking down over twenty men with ease. The ones in danger were indeed the others.

“And you had the nerve to tell me you were at a company meeting?” Romeo gave her a peck. “How long were you planning to keep this from me if I hadn’t run into you?”

“I wasn’t lying to you.” Arabella said calmly. “I just didn’t want you to worry.”

“I’d worry more if you were in danger.” Romeo kissed her lips again. “Promise me, you won’t take such risks in the future.”

“Okay. Although she agreed verbally, Arabella was thinking, “Just agree to get him off my back.”

“Mafia Flame was founded three years ago, how old were you then? Why were you in the triangular zone?” Romeo was puzzled. “Why did you become the boss of Mafia Flame?”
