The Princess and the Paupers Novel Full Episode

Chapter 1761

She slowly opened her eyes to find herself reclining in the plush comfort of an airplane's bed. This was

a bedroom within the sky, and there was Romeo, crashed on the solo armchair by the bedside, fast

asleep.

No sooner had she stirred than Romeo's eyes flickered open. "Awake? Bad dream?" he asked, voice

tinged with concern.

"No, just a bit thirsty," she replied.

Without missing a beat, Romeo poured her a glass of water and handed it to her. "Your mom called just

before we boarded. She wanted to chat with you, but I told her you were sleeping. Told her we'd be

flying home and you'd see her tomorrow."

Mom? Home?

Arabella glanced at him, noting how naturally the words rolled off his tongue now. She took the water

and sipped.

"Your brother Hans called too, checking in on you. I reassured him you're fine. Compared to what

you've been through, this is just a breeze," Romeo said as he took the empty glass from her, setting it

aside. He sat down next to her, tenderly stroking her hair and added, "He also mentioned that Erik

skipped town, left his own daughter behind without a second thought."

“He must think that after all these years, even if the family is furious with Serena, they wouldn't actually

take her life. At worst, they'd kick her out, but they wouldn't kill her."

Arabella's voice was calm as she dissected Erik's mindset, "But with Martha gone, he'll definitely make

a move. It's just a question of who his next target will be. The Collins family is big, and keeping all of

them safe around the clock is a tall order."

Dozens of servants with plans to visit family or travel for the holidays, or those staying at the Collins

estate.

Key corporate employees from all over the place, who knew where they'd be for the festivities.

Her dad's friends and her mom's, including her brothers and their partners, and even people close to

her.

"The holidays are coming up, and there'll be more visitors than ever, especially with mom and dad

going public about your identity. Lots of people will want to meet you, and you'll probably attend some

high-profile events to get the word out. It's going to give Erik plenty of opportunities. It's hard to cover

all the angles, but I'm going to assign more security to keep Reflections Villa safe and to accompany

you on trips. Most importantly, we need to catch Erik in the next few days."

As soon as Romeo finished, his phone began to vibrate. His private jet was equipped with internet and

phone connectivity.

He slid his finger across the screen to answer. After a short conversation, he turned to Arabella, "The

assailants from the hotel have been identified. They're from another organization that's been in cahoots

with Doom. You think their goal was to take you out. Could it be that Erik is part of this group? Maybe

they tried to finish what Martha couldn't?"

"It's possible," Arabella didn't dismiss the idea.

If Erik and Martha were involved with different factions, working for different masters, with multiple

powers offering them protection.

Then it was likely they'd belong to different organizations.

"I've got people checking if the past incidents are linked to this group. If there's a connection,

everything starts to make sense, including Erik's identity."

Romeo glanced outside at the sky, "You've only slept for three hours. Try to get some more rest. Leave

these matters to me."

"I want to call Jack," Arabella said, a hint of concern in her voice about the safety of Reflections Villa.

Romeo handed her his phone. She dialed, and before the ring could sound twice, Jack picked up

immediately, "Mr. McMillian? Are you asking about Boss' whereabouts? I'm not sure where she has

gone."
