The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella)

Chapter 1614

"l just can't bear the thought of my darling daughter getting tired, so | figured we'd have her New Year outfit made by professionals

outside."

Louisa's words sparked a wave of envy among the designers. When a wealthy mom doted on her daughter, she really went all out.

"Your mother is so good to you."

"I'm so jealous you have such a caring mother."

"We'll do whatever you want. Just tell us how you'd like to tweak the designs."

"The adjustments you made to Mrs. Collins's outfits were simply stunning. You've really got an eye for this."

Just then, Edith approached with excitement, "Mrs. Collins, Ms. Bella, Miss Myrna is here!"

Myrna was Chasel's girlfriend.

"Perfect timing, let her in!" Louisa said, getting up to greet her warmly.

"Kenneth, Louisa, hope I'm not interrupting." Myrna stepped in, changing her shoes, her face beaming with a lovely smile.

Her gaze inadvertently fell on Arabella lounging on the couch. "Bella, you're here too! | just texted you."

At this hour, she'd assumed Bella would be at work, so she had even sent a message saying she was dropping by the Collins' to

deliver sthings, including a little gift for Bella.

"Bella was busy revising the designs and missed your text, but you could have messaged me!" Louisa said, noticing Myrna's arms

laden with bags. "Why bring so much stuff? And where's Chasel? Didn't he cback with you?"

"He's still on a mission," Myrna replied with a smile. "With the holidays around the corner, | picked up a few things for you and

Bella."

She didn't mention Serena.

"You're too thoughtful, dear! Cin and sit down. | was just thinking of asking Chasel for your sizes to have sclothes tailor-

made for you. Perfect timing, Designer Eudora, could you help measure my future daughter-in-law? She and Bella seem to have

similar figures. Could you design a few pieces for her too."

"It's okay, Louisa, I'm just passing through. I've got other missions to do."

Myrna couldn't stay long. She had planned to visit the Collins’ before the holidays, but her schedule was packed, and today was the

only chance she had to sneak away. Glancing at the clock, she added, "I also ctoday to extend an invitation. My parents would

like to invite you for dinner during the holidays, if that suits you."

She delivered the invitation personally as a sign of respect from her parents to the Collins’.

Louisa beamed at the invitation. "We'd be delighted! We are free anytime. Just let us know when your parents are available. Oh,

and how did Chasel do when he visited your folks? | asked him, but he didn't spill the beans."

"My parents really liked him," Myrna said with a smile. "They had nothing but praise for Chasel."

"Cin and make yourself at home." Arabella stepped forward. "Let's not all stand around in the doorway."
