"Who's Bella?” Sampson asked, clearly puzzled.
Arabella quickly finished her phone call and turned around. Louisa and Kenneth stared at her in
disbelief.
Sampson, seeing the expressions on his sister and brother-in-law's faces, was about to introduce
Arabella when Louisa blurted out, "Bella, what on earth are you doing here?"
"Mom?" Arabella looked surprised, then turned to Kenneth, "Dad? What are you two doing here?"
“What did you just call them?" Now it was Sampson's turn to be surprised. When did his sister and
brother-in-law have a daughter?
Even Mark, who was standing by, had wide eyes. What was going on?
"Mark asked me to come here and treat his friend's mom. I was nearby, so I came,’ Arabella explained,
and then turned to her parents, “And you two?"
“You're not referring to his mother, are you?” Louisa pointed at her brother.
Arabella nodded, a bit confused.
“That's your uncle! His mother is my mom, your grandmother!"
At Louisa’s words, both Arabella and Sampson looked surprised. Uncle? Grandma? This was a lot to
take in.
Sampson was stunned. When did he get a niece? And she's all grown up?
What was happening?
Kenneth managed to say, “Let's sit down and talk this through."
Louisa quickly explained the fire at the clinic years ago, how Bella was taken by the Murphy family, and
how Serena wasn't their biological child.
Shocked, Sampson now understood why he felt a strange sense of familiarity the first time he met
Arabella, even a sense of closeness.
Subconsciously, he always felt she had some connection with his sister, even wanted to investigate
her.
“Because you're usually busy, and you're abroad, and Moms illness has been a great burden, I was
afraid if I told you and you told Mom, it might worsen her condition."
So Louisa thought she'd keep it a secret for a while, until their mother's condition improved.
At the time, Bella had just been recognized, and Louisa didn't want to announce her identity to friends
and family all at once. It was to avoid overwhelming Bella with visits and to give her and Kenneth more
time with their daughter. Moreover, it was because the health of the elders in both families wasn't good,
and she was afraid they would be upset.
"So how did you meet Bella? Did Mark introduce you?" Louisa asked her brother.
Sampson replied honestly, "I saw her in a restaurant before and thought she looked a lot like you. Then
I saw her again on the cruise last night. She not only saved me, but also helped me detox."
When Louisa heard about the dangerous situation from last night, her heart pounded in her chest, “You
were being hunted down last night? Who did it? Who dares to act so recklessly on your turf?"
“Thankfully Bella was there. She even calculated the time of the knockout gas, which helped me find
the mole quickly."
Arabella was surprised to hear this. So the incident last night was caused by a mole?
She also thanked him, "Uncle Sampson, you helped me and Kelly escape the siege, and you gave me
a very valuable medicinal herb."
