Arabella had blossomed into someone far more delightful than Serena.
But he used to tease her and even thought of abandoning her at the mountain.
How could he have been so blind to the charm, the intelligence, the sweetness of his little sister? He had been such a jerk!
"By the way, Sean, you didn't tellwhat you wanted to seeabout?" asked Arabella as she finished her chores and looked up
at him.
Sean explained, "The servant brought over those jackets, and | can't keep accepting things from you. Take this card. I'm going to
be getting a lot more from you, and this is a down payment. It's yours to keep."
In his heart, he knew he'd never ask for it back, nor did he care how much she spent or what she spent it on.

This was his way of giving his sister a welchgift.
Arabella glanced at the platinum card in front of her, and without a need for anyone to tell her, she knew it had at least 5 million
dollars in it.
5 million was the bare minimum for that kind of card.
"It's just a few clothes, Sean. You don't have to be that polite with me." Arabella pushed the card back towards him.
"Keep it!" Sean insisted, placing it on top of her sketchpad, "I have other cards. Don't worry aboutrunning out of money!"
As he spoke, he pushed a box of his other treasures towards her.
"These are from various auctions I've won bids at, you could call it my private collection. | want you to have them."
Arabella saw a variety of items including paintings, and priceless artifacts.
"I'm always out in Belloria and can't give these things the proper care. They'll be safe with you," Sean said, thinking he'd found the
perfect excuse.
But Arabella was serious, "Sean, these gifts are too valuable. | can't accept them."
She had already accepted 5 million dollars from him and did not plan to take anything more.
Yet Sean was adamant, "You accepted gifts from our other brothers. If you don't accept mine, I'll be heartbroken."
Arabella tried to interrupt him, when then she heard him say, "I really want to give them to you. If you accept them, it'll make me
happy. Don't you wantto be happy?"
"lI only have one sister. If I'm not giving these to you, then who else should receive these?"

Arabella smiled, "Once you have a girlfriend, you could give them to her."
"I have no idea when I'll be able to win over your future sister-in-law." Sean blurted out, then, suddenly remembering something,
glanced at Arabella sheepishly.
Arabella smiled slyly, "Ophelia is coming to seetonight."
"Really?" An excited spark appeared in Sean's eyes.
"The holidays are coming, and she's back in town. She said she'd stop by tonight. She'll also be there the day | announce my
identity." Watching Sean with amusement, she added, "Do you like her?"
"No, that's not it." Sean, caught off guard by the news that the girl of his dreams would be visiting, hurriedly said, "Actually, there's
something urgent | just realized | need to do. | have to go. And keep the stuff, okay? Don't you dare send it back, or I'll get mad!"
Sean left in a hurry, and Arabella couldn't help but chuckle. Without guessing, she knew Sean was probably off to shave, shower,
and spruce himself up.
