Chapter 1804

Arabella gazed at the spread before her, thinking it was all Sean's doing after all, his way of showing he

cared. Determined to honor his efforts, she tasted each dish, savoring the flavors.

But it was simply too much. As the meal wound down, she discussed with Romeo about the leftovers.

Romeo signaled for the manager to come over and pack them up.

Sean was taken aback by Romeo's thriftiness, but what really set him off was when his sister took out

her credit card to pay. He seethed, “What’s up with Romeo? Can’t even shell out for a meal? And

asking for a doggy bag?”

Steward was equally shocked, “This is just not done.”

Leaving aside the small amount of dishes he ordered, he let the girl pay the bill, and was even going to

take leftovers.

“He’s gonna get a piece of my mind.”

Sean was about to stand when Steward stopped him, “Sean, if you make a scene now, Ms. Collins will

just be embarrassed, she paid, and that’s that. My guess is, Ms. Collins’s not one to be pushed around.

Maybe she figured he’s not the right guy, just wanted to have a meal and not owe him anything. That’s

why she insisted on paying.”

“I bet he thinks Bella’s sweet and easy to bully,” Sean fumed, convinced that Romeo would have the

guts to behave like that as knowing he was there. What would happen when he wasn’t around to

protect her?

Seeing Arabella settled the bill, Romeo then took her by the hand and left the restaurant.

The manager bowed respectfully, “We hope to see Mr. McMillian and the lovely lady again soon!”

Sean scowled. No way was there going to be a ‘next time’. He resolved then and there to keep his

sister away from Romeo.

In the elevator, Romeo turned to Arabella, "This card has no limit. I know your brothers spoil you with

pocket money, and your parents too, but from now on, this is all you'll need."

Arabella hadn't used the card Romeo gave her weeks ago, even when he asked why. But today, she

decided to treat and paid with it, which delighted Romeo. That she finally accepted it made him feel

over the moon.

But to Sean, Romeo’s delight was just the glee by taking advantage of her. Right now, Sean was

seething with fury, barely subduing his impulse of cutting him into pieces.

“Let’s catch a movie?” Unaware of Sean's grudge, Romeo drove Arabella to the cinema.

Steward followed close behind, “Sean, looks like they’re heading to the movies.”

“After all this, they’re still going to a movie?”

Sean whipped out his phone, intending to check in with Arabella.

He hadn't really chatted with her since friending her on WhatsApp, remembering how she complained

about him meddling with her love life the day before. He didn't want to annoy her but eventually sent a

simple message.

[What’re you doing?]

Arabella, in the passenger seat, saw the message and noticed through the rearview mirror that a car

was trailing them. Steward’s tailing skills were laughably obvious.

She replied, [Heading to the movies with Romeo. What’s up, Sean?]

Sean asked tentatively, [Wanted to see if you were free. Was thinking we could catch a movie. How

about ditching Romeo and going with me? Bet the flick he picked isn’t that great.]

Arabella was surprised at his words, [You don’t seem like the movie-going type.]

“Don’t I? Do I look like I don’t enjoy movies?” Sean looked up and asked Steward, who was driving.

Steward glanced in the rearview mirror and deadpanned, “You look more like the action-hero type.”

Sean kicked the back of his seat, annoyed yet cautious as he crafted his next message. Before he

could send it, Arabella sent another, [I already promised Romeo. Maybe next time.]

Sean’s heart sank upon seeing it. His sister preferred a movie with Romeo over him. Well, it made

sense. Romeo might be a miser who didn't respect women, but Sean had been the one trying to give

her hard time.
