Chapter 1341

"Are you Mr. Collins's daughter?" Burnell was taken aback by her identity.

Ever since the Sullivan family moved to Dawnstar, it had been seven or eight years since they last

visited their homeland. At a charity gala almost a decade ago, Burnell had the good fortune of briefly

meeting Mr. Collins, and he was astonished to find that his daughter had grown into such a stunning

woman.

“What's your name?" Burnell was eager to get to know her.

"Is there something else you want?"

"I'd like to get to know you. Can I have your contact information?" Burnell pulled out his smartphone,

his gaze filled with genuine interest and nervous anticipation.

At that moment, Arabella noticed a maid nearby clenching her fists with her thumbs tapping against her

forehead as if signaling to a butler across the room.

The butler caught on immediately.

After a few seconds, several other maids replicated the gesture.

The butler nodded and discreetly walked away.

"If it's not too much trouble, could you tell me where you live? Who did you come with? How can I get in

touch with you usually?” Burnell didn't want to miss this opportunity to connect with her.

But Arabella replied coolly, "I'm already engaged."

Burnell watched her walk away, stunned for several seconds before he processed what she had said.

She was engaged? She had a fiancé?

But then, he thought it made sense. A woman as beautiful and spirited as her, and the daughter of a

wealthy tycoon, was bound to be spoken for early on.

Still, why did he feel a pang of disappointment, as if he'd just gone through a breakup?

Arabella followed the butler, noticing him glancing back to ensure no one was following. Along the way,

he exchanged knowing looks and nods with other butlers.

Arabella watched him ascend a secluded spiral staircase in the garden, leading to a large circular

balcony on the second floor, guarded by several bodyguards.

The butler whispered something to the guards, who immediately let him through.

As Arabella caught a glimpse of what looked like a study through the door the butler opened, it closed

before she could see more.

Scanning the surroundings, just as she was about to find a spot to leap up from, she realized someone

was behind her.

Turning around, she saw Burnell standing not far behind.

Perhaps not expecting her sudden turnaround, Burnell grew even more nervous but mustered the

courage to say, "Sorry, I don't know if I'm acquainted with your fiancé. May I be so bold as to ask who

he is?"

Arabella, realizing that the people in the study must have been reporting for quite some time, simply

said to Burnell, “Romeo McMillian."

Hearing the name "Romeo McMillian’ Burnell knew he had no chance left. He apologized for the

intrusion and hastily retreated.

Arabella noticed a narrow path to the right of the mansion, a strip of land about three feet wide

bordered by the villa's fence and wall, unguarded.

She easily scaled the side using the railings and the wall for support and slipped through a window into

a second-floor restroom. When she cracked the door to peek outside, she saw no guests, just

bodyguards filling the second-floor hallway.

Venturing out now would surely raise an alarm.

Arabella gently closed the restroom door, but this action caught the attention of a keen-eyed quard.

Perhaps because he noticed the restroom door moving, the guard approached, swung the door open,

and finding it empty, his eyes darted to the open window. He strode over to investigate.

Arabella seized the opportunity, descending from above to knock him out, then donned his uniform and

stepped out of the restroom.

Just then, an elderly person arrived by elevator, prompting all the guards, including Arabella in her

disguise, to bow their heads in repect.
