Chapter 602


Before signing her name, Arabella added a line: Forever your Bella (Melody).


Grandma Shirley saw this and couldn't stop laughing. She immediately asked Brodie to find a picture


frame, and she put the paper in it herself.


“Darling, it's about time. The kids must be hungry; let's have dinner first.”


Phillip's words fell on deaf ears.


After Grandma Shirley framed Arabella's signature, she placed it on the bedside table and even asked


Romeo to help her take a picture with Arabella.


Phillip hurriedly said, “I want to join. Let me take a picture with you guys, too.”


“You, step aside.” Grandma Shirley wanted to have a few solo shots with Arabella.


Phillip moved aside, watching Grandma Shirley hugging Arabella and beaming at the camera. He


couldn't help but feel a twinge of jealousy.


She had never been this close and intimate with him since she woke up.


After the photo session, Romeo, noticing Phillip's frustration, kindly said, “Grandpa, your turn.”


Phillip, being called out, was instantly as happy as a kid.


But the next second, Romeo handed him the phone, “Help me take a few shots with grandma and


Bella.”


Phillip was speechless. Was he excluded???


“Actually, Brodie could help with the pictures.” Phillip tried to join them.


But Grandma Shirley disagreed, “There's no spare room here.”


Spare? So he was spare.


After taking the photos, with her left arm around Arabella and her right arm around Romeo, Grandma


Shirley finally said, “Alright, Brodie, have the kitchen serve the food. Bella must be hungry.”


“Darling, I haven't taken my pictures yet!” Phillip, disregarding everything, squeezed into the middle and


directed Brodie, “Quick, help me take a few pictures!”


If he waited any longer, Grandma Shirley wouldn't cooperate!


Brodie hurriedly pressed the shutter. Phillip in the frame was making a gesture, seemingly extremely


happy to take a picture with his awake wife.


“Darling, let me push your wheelchair to join the kids for dinner.” Phillip personally lifted his wife onto


the wheelchair.


Romeo and Brodie wanted to lend a hand, but he shooed them away, “I'm not so old that I can't lift her.


Darling, even if you gain another 10 kilograms, I can still carry you.”


“Not 10 kilograms. If I gain 2 more kilograms, your old back would probably get hurt.” Grandma Shirley


could see he was struggling.


“Who says, no matter how much weight you gain, it's not a problem! I will keep fit from now on.” As


Phillip said this, he looked at Brodie, “You supervise me from now on!”


“Yes.”


The family of four was chatting and laughing as they went downstairs, where a lavish dinner was


already laid out.


“Grandpa Phillip, you've prepared too much.”


Arabella looked at the food in front of her. There were definitely more than twenty dishes, which the


four of them could never finish.


Each dish was not only made of rare ingredients but also posed a considerable challenge to the chef's


cooking skills.


It's safe to say this dinner was beyond luxurious.


“Your grandma said this is her first dinner with you. We can't just go through the motions,” Phillip added


with a smile.


Grandma Shirley personally handed Arabella her cutlery.


Arabella noticed her shaking hands. Although she was still recovering, she still wanted to do something


for Arabella.


Arabella felt warm inside and took the cutlery, “Thank you, Grandma Shirley.”


“Grandpa Phillip must have told you when you first came here to treat Fairfield Manor as your own


home. Today, I want to tell you the same thing. You can eat whatever you want here; don't be polite,


and if there's anything you're not happy with, let us know at any time.”


After Grandma Shirley finished speaking, she turned to her grandson, “Romeo, you need to keep


serving Bella. You know her taste, serve her more.”


“I will.” Romeo gave Arabella a gentle look again.


Arabella could feel the love from the two old people, especially Grandma Shirley. Although she was


weak and needed help to eat, she still tried hard to serve Arabella.


Arabella moved and said, “Grandma Shirley, don't trouble yourself. I can do it.”


The meal was finished in a harmonious atmosphere.


Arabella suddenly thought, would the ending have been different if the Murphy family had such an


atmosphere in the past?


Romeo seemed to read her thoughts and gently said, “The Murphy family is not your home. This is.”


Arabella looked up at him in surprise. How did he know her thoughts so accurately?


“The people from the Murphy family are ungrateful. Such an atmosphere would never exist there, so


there's no what if.”


Everything was destined.


Arabella was surprised, but her eyes also became softer. She didn't expect him to understand her


thoughts so well.


After dinner, Grandma Shirley was in high spirits and invited Arabella to the living room for coffee.


But Arabella could see that she was getting tired, so she planned to leave after finishing her coffee,


allowing Grandma Shirley to rest.


Just then, Brodie came over to report, "Mr. Winters heard that Shirley woke up, so he came to visit."


"Mr. Winters is here?" Phillip was all smiles, telling Brodie to let him in.


"Since we have a guest." Arabella was just about to get up and leave when she saw Phillip wave his


hand and say, "Hold your horses. I've got to introduce you to Mr. Winters. Let him get a little green-


eyed, knowing my grandson has a fiancée."


Brodie brought in an older gentleman, followed by a young girl.


The girl was only about seventeen or eighteen, with long, straight hair cascading over her shoulders


and delicate skin. Her eyes were filled with pride, which surprised everyone present.


"Please take a seat." Phillip invited them to sit down, "My wife's awakening is all thanks to my


grandson's fiancée!"


"Really?" Mr. Winters looked at the girl beside him, finding her even prettier than his granddaughter,


with delicate features and an extraordinary aura.


Arabella also greeted him with a smile.


Mr. Winters was a bit puzzled. Weren’t there supposed to be a marriage agreement between the


McMillian and Collins families? Wasn't Romeo supposed to marry Serena Collins?


How did it suddenly become this girl?


Who was this girl? She seemed even more beautiful than Serena, with a great aura and voice.


But what was her background? How could she surpass Serena and be with Romeo.


Did she pull some strings behind the scene.


With these thoughts, Mr. Winters' impression of Arabella dropped a bit.


And that girl gave Arabella a proud look, seemingly a bit hostile.
