She didn't coff as a pushover.
"Anyway, I've said my piece." Eunice chuckled, shifting into a more graceful posture, and declared with effortless poise, "Whoever
thinks about hiring a hitman to take out Bella, or playing dirty tricks behind the scenes, they won't get off lightly with me. Of
course, | hope it's not you, but if it is, I've just given you a fair warning, and you chose to ignore it."
Having finished her piece, she stood up, smoothed out her dress, and was about to leave when something seemed to strike her.
She turned back with a smile, "Oh yes, when | mentioned someone wanting to hire a hitman to kill Bella, you didn't seem surprised
at all. It's as if you already knew, as if hiring a hitman and the incident last night are connected."
Serena's face showed a flicker of change as she looked at Eunice.
"Goodbye, and godspeed," Eunice said without further ado and left the room.

Watching her leave, Serena felt the familial bond with Eunice thinning with each step she took away.
An hour later.
The estate's helipad bustled with servants shuttling luggage and gifts back and forth.
"These gifts are fromand your uncle, for your parents, and sare for you." Eunice said, straightening Arabella's clothes
gently and whispering in her ear, "Stay safe on your way back, dear. | will speed up the investigation, and I'll make good on my
promise within a week."
Arabella knew her aunt referred to rooting out the remaining threats.
"I hope it won't bring you too much trouble, Aunt Eunice."
When Serena cdown, she caught Eunice whispering intimately with Arabella, both laughing merrily. Bard, Belinda, Darren, and
the rest of the family were bidding a reluctant farewell to Arabella, who seemed to be the heart of the home.
Whether it was sorrow or envy, Serena found herself rooted to the spot.
May hugged Arabella tightly, "Miss Collins, I'll cto find you at Reflections Villa during the holidays with Mrs. Belinda Griffith."
"Con, it's not like a final goodbye," Belinda chuckled.
"Bella, make sure to spend squality twith Romeo. Don't leave the poor guy lonesome."
Arabella laughed, "I will."
"Serena, you're here too?" Bard noticed Serena standing a little way off. He called out, "Chere, Serena. Once you and Bella are

"I'm not taking this flight," Arabella clarified, "I'm going back with Romeo."
The group, taken aback, then remembered that she and Romeo were the couple. Romeo had cto Dawnstar for her, and
naturally, he would return with her.
"Has Romeo wrapped up his business here? When did this happen?" Darren inquired with concern.
"Just now."
Arabella had just packed her bags and received a call from Romeo. She had intended to inform her aunt and uncle but seeing them
heading towards the helipad, she decided to go downstairs and tell them in person.
But to Serena, this coff as a blatant show-off. Arabella had plenty of chances to mention it earlier, yet she waited until Serena
arrived to drop the news. If this wasn't intentional, what was it??
