Chapter 1458

"On my turf, no one can mess with my niece. I'm gonna make sure everyone knows that the Ar-Bl-

Clear Group is under the Griffith Group's wing. Anyone who crosses her, crosses us."

As Eunice spoke, she patted Arabella's back with a reassuring smile, "I'll give your Uncle a buzz, tell

him to come home for dinner, roll out the red carpet for Romeo"

"Isn't Uncle Bard supposed to have a meeting tonight?" Arabella recalled her uncle mentioning a work

commitment and not planning to return for dinner.

She wanted to say that it wasn't a big deal, just dinner, no need for all the fuss.

But Eunice uttered, "Meetings ain't as important as Romeo. Tonight, we're gonna treat him like royalty,

all of us together!"

As for Martin.

Eunice’s mind drifted back to the last time Serena got plastered and took a swing at Martin Cooper.

She wondered if Serena ever properly apologized.

The thought of Serena possibly slipping something into Arabella's drink to embarrass her made

Eunice's blood boil.

"Let's invite Martin some other time. Tonight, it's just Romeo." Having said her piece, she went off to

make the call.

Then, the maid approached with news, "Miss. Collins, Mr. McMillian has arrived, and he's brought a

bunch of presents"

Arabella hadn't expected Romeo to be late just because he was picking out gifts. Seeing him arrive,

arms laden with offerings, she couldn't help but chuckle, "Is all this necessary?"

Romeo always went here with numerous gifts; his intentions couldn't be more transparent.

Grinning, Romeo asked, "Did they like the last gifts I brought?"

But someone beat her to the punch, “Loved them! They absolutely loved the gifts you brought last time.

Grandma, grandpa, your aunt, and uncle were all thrilled."

Hearing this, Romeo and Arabella found Darren, with a beaming smile, was striding towards them.

“But those gifts were too extravagant. It just doesn't sit right with me. And now you've brought even

more? No, no, after we eat, you'll have to take these back with you!"

Darren set the gifts on the coffee table before clapping Romeo on the back in appreciation, "Good job,

kid, looking solid. Do you work out regularly?"

Romeo glanced at Arabella affectionately before nodding, “Yes."

He wanted to make sure Arabella feit secure, so no matter how busy, he always found time for the

gym.

Darren looked him over approvingly, "Have a seat, have a seat. You youngsters must enjoy coffee,

right? I'll ask them to bring our finest brew."

"I'll have whatever Bella's having. I've switched to lemonade and tea these days"

“Good choices! I'm a fan of drinking tea also! Lemonade's too sour for my teeth.” Darren chuckled,

"Let's get the best tea we have"

“Thank you, grandpa Darren, for the hospitality."

“Thank me? We're family" Darren said, contentedly eyeing Romeo, "You've met Bella's folks, right?"

Romeo nodded, “i have."

"I didn't catch wind of you two dating before.” Darren was cut short as Belinda walked in from the

kitchen, joining in, "You were bedridden. Even if they mentioned it, you wouldn't have heard."

When Romeo saw her, he politely stood up to greet her, "Grandma Belinda"
