Looking to leave?
Guess that would have to wait until New Year's Eve.
"Listen to me." Martha began to strategize for Serena again.
A spark lit up in Serena's eyes. Yes, that was a plan worth trying.
Meanwhile.
Hans was about to hit the sack when his phone buzzed with a breaking news alert, [The Most
Charming Matchmaker, David.]
Puzzled, he tapped on the notification and discovered that during a concert segment, David played
cupid, helping his fans propose successfully, even distributing wedding favors to the crowd.
His brother was more fun than he thought. Hans was about to close the app when he caught a glimpse
of a couple in the corner of a photo that looked strikingly like Romeo and his sister.
Curious, he clicked through several news articles, each offering different snapshots and even some live
footage. Upon viewing the videos, there was no doubt—it was Romeo and his sister.
Even in the dim light and with their masks on, their silhouettes and the vibe of their movements were
unmistakable.
His little sister had actually joined Romeo in such a childish escapade.
Watching Romeo kneel like the other male fans, slipping a ring on his sister's finger and then the two of
them kissing in blissful union, Hans suddenly felt a jolt—as if his precious little sister had become
someone else's treasure.
[You played matchmaker for our sister?] Hans shot a message to David.
By then, David was shaking in his boots. Not just from Hans, but he'd also received messages from
Chasel and Clark, teasing him about his successful matchmaking stint, even giving away his own
sister.
And David was grinning ear to ear.
[If it weren't for that guy being so darn good to Bella, heart and soul, I'd never have agreed to this
match!] David could only reply to his brothers, [He truly adores Bella, nearly wearing his heart on his
sleeve. Let's not stand in their way, making sure our sister's happiness is our ultimate goal.]
After a shower, Arabella video-chatted with Romeo until she fell asleep, not even bothering to cover
herself with a blanket. Romeo wished he was there to take care of her, to pull the covers over her.
So he messaged Edith, asking if she was still awake, saying Bella had dozed off without a blanket, and
he was worried she'd catch a cold in this freezing weather.
Though the house was heated, the chill was still biting.
Luckily, Edith was still up. Praising Romeo for his thoughtfulness, she tiptoed to Arabella's room, gently
opened the door, and quietly tucked her in.
Seeing that their video call was still connected, Edith inwardly swooned at how sweet they were. She
hadn't realized Ms. Bella needed to video chat with Mr. McMillian every night before sleeping.
After leaving a nightlight on, she slipped out quietly.
Romeo watched the peaceful face of the girl, who must have been exhausted, not even stirring when
Edith came and went.
In the past, the slightest noise would have woken her.
What he didn't realize was that it was his presence, his voice, that gave Arabella a sense of security.
