Chapter 219

Arabella came downstairs fresh from her bath, to see the sky filled with bursting fireworks. Louisa,

wearing a tender smile, beckoned, “Bella, come over, let’s take a group picture!”

A famous photographer and his team were waiting under the fireworks. Under the dazzling night sky,

Kenneth and Louisa, both wearing gentle smiles, hold each of their daughter’s hands, “We’ve always

wanted to take a photo with you, but never got the chance. Serena just happened to be out with her

friends.”

This worked out nicely, a photo with just the three of them. After all, they were the ones who were

blood–related.

“But, I’m in my PJs.” Arabella said.

Before Arabella could finish her sentence, Kenneth and Louisa burst out laughing, “No worries, no

worries.”

They had deliberately worn their PJs too, to look more like a family. They wanted to capture this slice of

life moment.

“Alright, everyone squeeze in! Mr. Collins, your collar is a bit crooked. Mrs. Collins, chin down a bit.

Arabella, could you give a bigger smile?” The photographer said.

Arabella flashed a bright smile as the camera clicked away.

“Switch places, switch places!” Louisa happily traded places with Kenneth.

The fireworks in the sky served as their backdrop, both of them holding Arabella’s hands, their faces

glowing with happiness.

Arabella had never felt her parents‘ love so intensely, The way they doted on her, as if she were their

most precious treasure.

“Alright, let’s change it up.” The photographer took more candid shots in the living room after the

garden shoot.

Arabella, held closely by her parents, felt a warmth she had never felt before.

After shooting over a dozen scenes, Louisa still wanted more. But Kenneth chuckled, “Let’s give Bella a

break, we’ve been shooting for quite a while tonight.”

“Madam, we’ve shot over a dozen scenes already, there are thousands of photos.” The photographer

was also worried that they might be too tired and it would affect their expressions.

“Let’s take more when the boys return!” Kenneth massaged Louisa while speaking, “Someone, bring

some lemonade.”

Someone brought the lemonade. Louisa placed a straw and handed it to Arabella, “Bella, have some

water. You must be tired.“”

Arabella shook her head and took a sip. It was a bit sweet. She also felt sweet in her heart.

“Want some dessert?” Kenneth brought a whole plate of desserts in front of Arabella, “Do you like pink

macarons? Or do you prefer pudding? If you don’t like either, I’ll have them made again!”

“Mom, Dad, you guys choose first.” Arabella took the plate and handed it to them.

Kenneth and Louisa, touched by the gesture, each took one dessert even though they usually didn’t

have sweets at night.

The photographer sent all the digital photos to Louisa’s phone first. Louisa, looking at the countless

frames of them, felt extremely satisfied. Every single one was perfectly captured, so natural.

“Bella, come take a look, do you have any favorites? I’ll send them to you first.” Louisa said.

Arabella chose a biscuit, paired it with the lemonade, took a look and said, “All good.”

“Then I’ll send them all to you.” After sending them, Louisa continued to admire the photos, “These are

really fantastic! Especially these few.”

Seeing her set one of the photos as her phone wallpaper, Kenneth also chimed in, “I want to set it as

my wallpaper too!”
