The Princess and the Pauper

Chapter 2152

“No need for sophistry,” Shirley said, her expression steely. “We want the truth.”

They had weathered many a storm, and even though they suspected their eldest son and daughter-in-law could be the masterminds behind it all, they managed not to lose their composure.

Asimmering rage was on the brink of bursting into flames, just waiting for a gust of wind to fan it into an inferno.

Tomas and Donna remained silent, and Louisa couldn’t help but ask, “Tomas, Donna, did you really do this? Our families have been close for generations. | can honestly say I’ve never done anything to harm you. Why would you do this to us, not even sparing a newborn?”Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Moreover, but they had caused an explosion at the entire clinic, implicating countless innocents.

“Mom, Dad, please say something.“ Cathy pleaded. “Why would you hurt Bella’s family? The Collinses have always been so kind to us, and my sister-in-law. You almost made me lose her!”

Tomas and Donna remained silent.

“Dad, Mom,” Jeffery stepped forward. “Cathy’s just impulsive. She doesn’t mean any disrespect. If there’s something from the past that we don’t know about, now that we're all here, it’s time to speak up.”

“Dad, Mom,” Luna also chimed in. “Whether it was intentional or coincidental, we need an explanation. Bella has suffered for eighteen years. Mr. and Mrs. Collins have been separated from their flesh and blood for so long. For these reasons at least, we owe them an explanation.”

Now that the investigation has led to their parents, they must have been more or less related to what happened all those years ago. Otherwise, with Bella’s nature, she wouldn't have brought it up.

Donna’s gaze finally settled on Arabella as she asked in a calm voice, “What exactly did Beverly tell you?”

She knew Arabella had visited Beverly today and that they had chatted about the situation at home. Beverly had even expressed her regret that she hadn't got the chance to read the poems and take a trip with her families.

Beverly had mentioned the beauty of the outside world—words that can’t be fully expressed by the intermediary—probably she urged Arabella not to be so busy, to take some time to enjoy the scenery with Romeo.

After leaving Beverly, Arabella had returned to the lab. Everything seemed normal. But here was a sudden explosion in the lab. Then, Steward drove Arabella back to Reflections Villa, and the family doctor was summoned.

It all seemed so normal that Donna hadn’t realized it was Romeo and Arabella who had set a trap for them. “It had nothing to do with Aunt Beverly,” Arabella replied.

She knew her aunt and uncle had kept silent about the true culprit because they had been threatened with the lives of Frederica and Alma.

The power of Tomas and Donna’s far exceeded that of Lucas and Beverly’s.

If they knew that it was Beverly who had given her the clue, it wo siast be Frederica andant@ dPrisk—even nein Beverly, who were locked up inside, would also be in danger. Please read the original content at .

Arabella’s words made Donna smile casually, her poise radiating elegance and grace.

She knew the young lady had no solid evidence.

Probably something Beverly said had emboldened her to be so sure.
