Chapter 598 âYouâre the best gift ever,â Romeo said, touching her face to comfort her. âMy grandma will be over the moon to see you.â âBut I canât just show up emptyâhanded,â Arabella said, inquiring, âWhat did your grandma like most?â
She had to come up with something.
âMiss Bella, Shirley McMillian loved flowers, paintings, and playing chess. Sheâs even heard your music,â he informed Arabella looked skeptical, âItâs true! You can ask Mr. McMillian if you donât believe meâ
âThatâs right,â Romeo said gently, âMy grandma did listen to your music before, and she loved So, all she had to do was play a few tunes for Shirley?
If Shirley liked chess, Arabella did have a top notch chess set made of gold. Even the chessboard was worth a fortune but it was too late to have it delivered now. âDidnât you give my grandma a gold bracelet before?â Romeo reminded her. âThat bracelet is still on my grandmaâs wrist, and you donât need to prepare anything else. Just show up.â
Finally, Arabella decided to bring the chess set next time, persuaded by Romeo.
Before long, their car pulled up in front of Fairfield Manor Romeo, leading Arabella by the hand, walked through the front door, with Brodie showing the way.
âShirley just woke up, and sheâll be thrilled to see you guys!â Brodie couldnât contain his joy Who wouldâve thought that not only would Shirley wake up, but she could also engage in simple conversations? It was beyond everyoneâs expectations! And all of it was thanks to Arabella!
In Phillipâs bedroom, the elegant Grandma Shirley sat on the bed, sipping soup fed by Phillip âGrandpa, Grandma,â Romeo and Arabella chimed in, drawing the attention of the elderly couple.
âBellaâs here! Darling, this is Bella Iâve told you about! Arabella Collins! Kenneth Collinsâs daughter!â Phillip put down the bowl, hurriedly inviting Arabella to sit, completely ignoring Romeo, Romeo was used to it. He held Arabellaâs hand and sat down by the bedside The kindlady, dressed neatly, was glowing and radiating an aura of nobility.
She looked at Romeo with a warm smile and said, âMy grandsonâs grown taller, matured, and is more steady.â
Her voice was pleasant and soothing, and her presence was commandingâ
âDarling. I was having a hard time getting hold of this well known doctor, Dr. Bell After pulling strings, I finally managed to get him. Guess what, Dr. Bell turned out to be Bella! How coincidental, Phillip started laughing, then continued, âBefore I found Dr.
Bell, I heard from Carl that Bella, after hearing about your condition, had already been searching for a cure on her own! Carl said that the place she went to was extremely dangerous. A slip could cost her life.â
But she didnât back down. She couldâve sent someone else or chosen to ignore Grandma Shirley, but she didnât.
âLater, she found the medicine and worked hard to prepare it, just to save you. If she hadnât gone there, if Romeo and Carl hadnât happened to spot her, we might still be in the dark, not knowing that she had been silently doing so much behind the scenes!â
