The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella and Romeo) novel Chapter 1827

The incident had him worried sick about his sister possibly facing danger.

He couldn't stand the thought of anything happening to her.

"And what about you?" Arabella's gaze shifted towards Hans, "You've given me all your most trusted and capable guys. What about you, Hans?"

"There are others at my disposal, don't worry about me," Hans replied before turning to Lone Wolf, "From now on, whatever Bella asks of you, you do it. No need to report back to me. Stick with her and you'll be fine."

"Understood." Lone Wolf nodded, bowing slightly to Arabella as a sign of his allegiance, "I'll follow Ms. Collins' lead from here on out."

Just then, Hans heard footsteps outside and glanced at Arabella.

She quickly signaled for Lone Wolf to step back.

Swift as a shadow, Lone Wolf vanished from their presence.

Arabella was impressed. He could move in and out undetected, even with the Collins family's extensive surveillance. His skills were indeed exceptional.

"I know you've got plenty of guys, but one more can't hurt," Hans said gently, "Got your phone on you?"

"Yes."

Arabella pulled out her smartphone, and to avoid prying eyes, Hans keyed in a number himself.

"This is his contact," Hans cautioned, "I know your phone's secure. Encrypt his number and keep it hidden."

"Will do." Arabella looked at Hans, feeling a warm sense of gratitude.

Meanwhile.

Descending the stairs, Sean wore a smile as fresh as the spring breeze.

The staff noticed his good spirits and greeted him, "Good morning, sir."

"Your pajamas are both warm and trendy. Ms. Bella sure has a unique touch."

"Mr. Sean, breakfast is ready whenever you are."

Basking in their praise, Sean's spirits soared, "I'll wait for Bella to wake up before eating."

"Ms. Bella has already had breakfast with Hans," one of the staff informed him, "She was up early today."

Sean was shocked. He thought, "What?

She's finished already?

What time is it even?

Has Hans whisked his sister away already?"
