Chapter 1780

"Why didn't you let him in?" Louisa asked, her brows knitting in confusion.

"Did you and your brother have a chance to meet before Martha kidnapped you?" Darren pressed,

eager for answers.

"Was there any kind of unpleasantness?" Belinda added, her gaze fixed on Arabella.

A carousel of memories spun in Arabella's mind, including the first time she met Sean, the time a

woman threw herself at him, and Sean not exactly turning her away.

Seeing that the crowd was intent on hearing the reason, Arabella picked the least significant one to

share.

"Well. I had my eye on this island that just so happened to be under Sean's name. I bought it from him

for a low price, and seeing him today, I thought he might have come after me over the island deal."

"Sean actually charged you money?" Louisa was astonished.

"He didn't know I was his sister at the time." Arabella explained.

"So how much did he take from you? I will make him give it back later."

"After he found out I was his sister, he gave it back, and even gave me an extra five million dollars to

buy candy."

Everyone was taken aback. When had Sean become so indulgent? So generous?

They remembered how Serena never dared ask him for anything because he was always so

intimidating that Serena wouldn't even dare to approach him.

Yet now, he was willing to give Bella five million dollars just for candy.

"Sean's still hurt, I'll get him some painkillers." Arabella went to her room and returned with a few pills,

dropping them into a glass of warm water. As Sean came downstairs, she handed him the glass to

drink.

Seeing his sister caring for him, Sean was touched and surprised. "You didn't have to do this for me."

He tilted his head back and gulped down the water, despite the odd taste. It didn't matter—anything

given by his sister, even if it were poison, he would drink without hesitation.

"Sean, where did you and Bella run into each other? What happened?" Belinda was the first to ask.

Images of Sean being intimate with a woman flashed through his mind, and he was too embarrassed to

recount them.

His sister must have gotten the wrong idea!

Otherwise, she wouldn't have been so cold at the door, accusing him of being a ladies' man.

That woman had been an assassin sent to kill him, not a plaything.

In matters of the heart, he was still a blank slate.

"And why haven't you come home in over six months? Steward said you were injured; when did that

happen? What caused it?"

"Why didn't we see you before you got hurt?"

"Did you ever call your sister?"

As the questions continued to fly at Sean, Arabella stepped in, "Sean and I were both investigating the

fire from years ago, and we stumbled upon each other by accident."

Suddenly, everyone seemed to have a clearer picture of the situation.

"I had people look into that clinic fire back in the day, and they couldn't find anything." Belinda was

surprised that her children had managed to uncover so much, even exposing Martha and Erik's

identities.

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree, indeed.

"And you came home without a gift for your sister?" Louisa was a bit upset, seeing him empty-handed.

She had reminded him time and again to bring a gift for his sister.

"I did." Sean immediately glanced at Steward.

"I'll get it." Steward, who had just sneezed, was about to fetch the gift when Arabella handed him a

small medicine bottle, "There are two more pills in there, for the cold."

Steward looked at the unlabelled bottle and, though skeptical, accepted it with gratitude, "Thank you,

Ms. Bella." The trust in Arabella's medical expertise was evident in his voice.
