Chapter 1211


A gaggle of girls surrounded Edith, showering her with compliments. Edith, all smiles, returned a few


kind words before making her exit.


As the girls prepared to snap some photos for Facebook, Christine chimed in, “There's a lovely corner


of Serena's garden filled with exquisite flowers and plants. Plus, there's a swing and some bespoke


garden furniture. Should we take our pictures there instead?"


The idea was obviously appealing, promising an air of elegance and class.


"Sounds good!” The girls, clutching their food and drinks, began to head to the designated area when


they spotted Romeo and Arabella sitting together, engaged in a seemingly intimate conversation.


“Who's that girl? And what is she doing in Serena's garden?"


“Isn't Romeo engaged to Serena? Why is he chatting with another girl in the Collins family's garden?


What's happening?"


"Can someone explain this to me?"


At that moment, Sylvia, who had been quietly observing, let out a sigh. "Oh, Romeo, why the drama!


Serena’s taking a nap. She can't see any of this!"


"Sylvia, do you know something?"


"Your tone suggests there's more to the story."


"Spill it, Sylvia. What's going on with Romeo and Serena?"


“Why the silence? Aren't we friends?"


"Sylvia, we've been through thick and thin together. You're not keeping secrets from us, are you?"


Cornered by the group's pleas, Sylvia finally spilled the beans.


“What? So Romeo's cozying up with this girl in the Collins family's garden to make Serena jealous and


win her back? That's incredibly romantic."


The girls couldn't help but be moved. Where could they find such a man?


He was young, handsome, affluent, and yet so dedicated in love.


“Shh, don't say I told you. Serena will be mad if she finds out I've been talking. She's napping right now,


so she can't see Romeo's efforts. Maybe I should record a video and send it to her."


“Absolutely, she needs to see this. Who in their right mind would reject the wealthiest bachelor for


Martin, who's clearly inferior in every way?"


“Sylvia, play dumb about knowing the situation. She only confided in you. Try to talk some sense into


her."


Sylvia nodded in agreement, surreptitiously recorded a video on her phone and sent it to Serena before


turning back to the others.


“Is it good?" Romeo asked Arabella, eyeing the juice in her hand.


Arabella saw right through him. He just wanted to share her drink, didn't he?


She took a sip before leisurely responding, "It's not good. Don't bother trying it."


“I'm even more curious to taste how bad it is now."


Seeing that he was insistent, Arabella handed him the juice. Romeo took a satisfying gulp, “Anything


that passes through your hands, no matter how bad, becomes sweet."


Arabella picked up a pastry, and Romeo expressed interest in trying it. This time, she brought it directly


to his lips.


"This girl is way too forward! How dare she flirt so openly with Serena's fiancé, on Serena's property?"


“How audacious!"


“She must be under the illusion that Romeo is genuinely interested in her!"


“Romeo is merely using her to provoke Serena, hoping to win her back. This girl can't possibly believe


she has some extraordinary allure, can she?"


“Compared to Serena, this girl has nothing going for her but her slightly above-average looks."


"Exactly!"
