Chapter 1169

“No way. I can't let you." Romeo pulled her hand back under the blanket, "You've had enough for one

day."

“Just do your job in the future. Don't worry about me.” Arabella was referring to him waiting for her day

and hight at the hospital.

“What's more important than you?" Romeo looked into her eyes, enunciating each word, "You didn't

sleep, didn't eat, and spent a full 21 hours in the OR. I worry about you."

“Worried I'll collapse from exhaustion?” Arabella couldn't help but laugh, “I'm not a child. I know my

limits.

“In my heart, you are still a child." Romeo fed her another spoonful of soup, “So young, yet carrying a

burden heavier than anyone else's. Sometimes, I wish you'd take it easy, mind your own business

more, and care about yourself."

“But I have you to look after me, don't I?"

“There will always be times when I can't look after you enough."

Arabella noticed a change in his mood, “What's wrong?"

Romeo was reminded of Arabella at the hospital today, she had only consumed a bottle of milk, and

that too only because he had handed it to her. Arabella didn't want him to worry, so she chugged it

down all at once.

If he wasn't there today, would she have gone 21 hours without eating?

The mere thought of it pained him.

“It's nothing.” Romeo concealed the worry in his eyes, not wanting to burden Arabella with his worries.

“Alright, I know you care about me.” Arabella laughed, her eyes sparkling with a tender light, “Today

was an exception, won't happen again."

“Your promises never come to fruition."

She had promised him before that she wouldn't risk danger, that she wouldn't get hurt, that she would

take care of herself, not to worry him.

"Next time, even if you're busy, you're not allowed to skip meals."

"Okay.

After some time, Romeo held her as they watched the snow falling outside, the pristine snowflakes

fluttering down.

Romeo breathed in her scent, “It feels like we've known each other for a long time."

Their companionship felt as natural as a couple who had been together for decades.

"I feel the same way. Arabella watched the falling snowflakes, feeling as if time was slowing down once

again.

Having someone by her side gave her life a new layer of meaning. It was nice.

After a while, they parked the RV in the garage. Romeo wrapped a warm coat around her and carried

her into the villa’s elevator.

This residence, called Bella Villa, was something he had bought specifically to be closer to her, near

the school.

It had a bedroom, a walk-in closet, a hot spring bath, a lab and everything he prepared for her.

Romeo carried her into the bedroom.

“lL want to take a shower."

Romeo fetched fresh clothes for her and prepared a bath. Only after reminding her of a few things did

he leave.

It was still dark at five in the morning, but a light had entered Arabella’s world that had been gloomy for

years.

Meanwhile, Clark stayed by Carol's bedside, awake all night.

He hacked into the surveillance of the area around the street where the incident took place. He sorted

out all the information and movements of the people involved and sent it to the police.

Some of the hidden culprits were also found.

After a while, he heard some devastating news.

During police interrogation, someone confessed that over twenty people were involved in violating

Crystal's innocence.

Throughout the ordeal, the name Crystal kept crying out was: Clark.

“Clark, rest assured. These people will be punished."

Clark's eyes reddened again, his fists clenched tightly, his voice tinged with anger, "Are all those

scumbags caught?"
