Chapter 1335

As if nothing had ever happened.

That mental fortitude was impressive.

Along the way.

Eunice glanced at the quietly composed girl beside her and asked, “Bella, aren't you curious why, out of everyone, | chose to bring

only you to tonight's birthday bash, and not Serena?"

“Is it because she's not the right fit?” Arabella guessed, “Or is it because you wantto get to know what kind of people Mom's

side of the family are?"

“Yes, but that's not the main reason.” Eunice smiled, her gaze fixed ahead, her red lips curling, “You must have heard enough

rumors by now. Take a guess, why have | been by Alexander's side for so long without ever thinking of leaving?"

Arabella sensed something in her words.

“Figured it out?” Eunice saw a flicker of insight in Arabella's eyes and her smile grew even more beautiful, “So quick to catch on,

you truly are my dear niece."

Arabella wasn't entirely sure, but she ventured her guess.

“You were hurt and Mr. Elliot brought you to Alexander. Normally, the first thing upon waking would be to leave, to find a way back

to Uncle Bard, because | can tell, you and Uncle Bard truly love each other, you can't live without one another."

"But you didn't leave, you stayed, and even took the opportunity to win over a number of Alexander's men.

Those men are fiercely loyal to you. It wouldn't have been difficult for any of them to send a message to Uncle Bard, but you didn't

do that. This means there's something there worth staying for. You mentioned true love with Uncle Bard, and that’s a big reason for

your staying."

Eunice urged her on with her deepening smile, “Go on"

“Uncle Bard's power is unassailable in Dawnstar. Logically, there's nothing that would require your personal intervention, just a

word to him would suffice to settle it, unless it's something Uncle Bard himself hasn't noticed, something you stumbled upon

unexpectedly.”

“lt must be no small matter, likely concerning Uncle Bard's safety, or perhaps the safety of my grandparents.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be worth the risk for you to stay."

“As far as | know, Uncle Bard and the Mafia Rock have always kept to their own turfs, no crossover. But for you to remain so long at

Mafia Rock, under Alexander's roof, it can only mean one thing — Alexander has something you want. As for what that something

is, | haven't guessed it. Please, Aunt Eunice, enlighten me."

Eunice laughed, amazed at her niece’s sharpness, “You've done well to guess this much.” Outside, they were all talking, saying she

was tainted, that she had no business returning to Bard's side.

“You see things differently than they do,” Arabella said coolly, aware of the “others” Eunice referred to.

If all she did was scratch the surface, what kind of leader would she be?

“| envy Louisa for having such a clever and beautiful daughter.” Eunice beamed, “You're right, while at Alexanders, | inadvertently

discovered someone from the Griffith family in contact with him, plotting to have your grandfather and Bard killed. | found it

suspicious and decided to stay and gather evidence."

Eunice narrated everything in detail.

“Alexander was cautious, always covering his tracks. It tooka long tto gather sevidence, and just when | did, Bard

discovered | was still alive and mounted a surprise attack, wiping Alexander out."

“l understand now,” Arabella’s eyes widened in realization, “But the trail didn't end there!”
