NovelEnglishChapter 124 No sooner had Louisa finished speaking than Romeo assured them, “Don’t you worry, I'll take good care of her.” He always had an affectionate look in his eyes when he looked at Arabella.
Kenneth and Louisa exchanged glances; both could tell that Romeo was head over heels for Bella-really smitten! Just then, Serena walked down the stairs elegantly with her carefully applied makeup, flashing a classic debutante smile and warmly saying, “Hey, sis, bro—in—law, you're here?” Every move she made as she descended the stairs was filled with grace and nobility, like she was well-trained and practically flawless.
Seeing her manners and demeanor, Louisa was satisfied. At least all these years efforts weren't wasted, especially when she heard her say “bro-in—law, It was clear that she knew her boundaries; she wouldn't try to replace Bella just because she was previously engaged to Romeo and step into the McMillan family.

Romeo's gaze remained on Arabella, filled with fondness. “Shall we go out for breakfast tomorrow morning?” “I'd rather eat at home.” “I'd like to join you.” Kenneth heard that and thought, wasn't that simple? “I'll have the kitchen prepare extra breakfast tomorrow, Romeo; you can cover and eat with Bella, then head to work!” Romeo heard this and thought, just as he wanted, “Thank you.” “No need; we're family!” Kenneth asked with a grin, “What do you like to eat?” “I'll have whatever.” Romeo cast a doting glance at Arabella and said, “I'll eat whatever Bella eats.” Serena, ignored on the side, felt both jealous and embarrassed.
Just then, Holly seized the opportunity to bring over a glass of lemon water, saying, “Miss Serena, here's your water.” She had already served tea to Romeo and Arabella earlier, so nobody found it conspicuous when she brought a glass for the just—arrived Serena.
But she deliberately stumbled against the leg of a chair, and the water in her hand splashed all over Serena.
Quite conveniently, it splashed on Serena's chest.
Serena was already wearing a silk robe, which was now mostly wet at the front, revealing her enticing curves.
“I'm so sorry! Miss Serena, | didn’t mean to!” Holly was extremely regretful and quickly pulled out a tissue to wipe Serena.
“It's okay, don’t worry; | can take care of it myself.” Serena showed her understanding side.

“Miss Serena, it's all my fault; | got your clothes wet!” Holly emphasized the word “wet.
But Romeo’s gaze stayed on Arabella. He whispered something in her ear; Arabella gave him a frustrated look, while Romeo flashed a mischievous smile. They seemed to be flirting.
“Serena, go change your clothes.” Louisa suggested it softly.
“Sorry. I'll go upstairs to change and cback down to accompany you No matter how polite she was, Romeo’s gaze never lingered on her for a second.
As she was going upstairs, Serena heard Louisa ask in surprise, “Bella, is this a new bracelet? I've never seen you wear it before.” “He gave it to me.” Her simple response made Serena pause in her steps, nearly frozen in shock! “Romeo gave it to you?” Louisa hurriedly took a closer look. The design is so beautiful! I've never seen it on the market.” “He designed it.”
