Arabella waited in the garden, leisurely sipping her juice and admiring the garden view.
“She looks so smug. It's infuriating!" “Even if Serena could tolerate it, | can't" "She acts as if she owns the place!" “What is she doing now?" Suddenly, Arabella tore open a small packet and poured the powder inside into Romeo's cup.

"That's right, Romeo despises girls like you who are manipulative!" “Unlike Serena who's so pure and noble" "Coffee creamer, that's all.” Arabella glanced at the unopened packets on the table, “If | really had spiked his drink, he would be thrilled." With that, she cast a sly glance at the man in the distance.
Romeo smirked. This girl knew him well.
But to the girls, Arabella's smile was shameless and audacious.
“How can you say such a thing?" “Alright, even if you didn't spike his coffee, don't get too comfortable. The only reason you're with Romeo is because Serena let you!"
