The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella)

Chapter 2107

Amelia (Odelia?) and Louisa had been best friends for years, and the birthday party Amelia (Odelia?) had been planning was set to

run from 2 PM to 10 PM. She had told Louisa that any twould do, but now it was already 8 PM and there was still no sign of her.

Amelia (Odelia?) was holding off on the cake cutting until they arrived...

"I heard from my parents that they left the house at 1:30 PM," Arabella responded.

"Louisa textedaround 1:30 too, saying they were on their way. But when | hadn't heard from them by 3 PM, | texted and got no

reply. | tried calling at 4, and neither of them picked up. | haven't been able to reach them since... So you're saying they're not at

home?" Amelia couldn't help but worry.

"That's right."

"What if something happened... Don't freakout. | know the Collins family has been having a rough tlately..."

"Don't worry, Odelia, I'll give them a call. If they don't answer, I'll have someone look for them."

"Okay... givea call back later with an update, will you?"

"Will do."

After hanging up, Arabella pulled out her cell and dialed Louisa's number.

To her surprise, the call connected after a few moments!

A voice tinged with amusement cthrough, "Finally noticed your parents are missing?"

"Serena?" Arabella was irked, "Where have you taken my parents?"

No need to guess, Kenneth was with her too.

"It's been too long since we had a heart-to-heart, sis. I'll send you a location, calone," Serena's voice cwith a smile that

carried a stern warning, "l don't want to see anyone else there."

After the call, Arabella saw the location Serena had sent - HATTUT Hospital, an abandoned building from a bygone era.

She forwarded the coordinates to Jack, instructing him to take a squad and set up an ambush nearby. She then called Romeo,

briefed him on the situation, and he quickly mobilized his own forces.

Next, she called Amelia (Odelia?) back, explaining that her parents were feeling under the weather and wouldn't make it to her

birthday. She wished her to enjoy her day and sent her heartfelt birthday wishes once more.

Finally, she unlocked the basement door and whispered instructions to Stinger before releasing him.

With all that settled, Arabella headed to the garage, got in her car, and was about to head to the location when Louisa's phone

rang again.

Knowing the phone was in Serena's hands, Arabella answered but didn't greet her, waiting for Serena to speak first.

"Arabella, you dare call for backup?"

The sound of the wind sliced through the call, followed quickly by a man's agonized screams.

It was Amos, the head of the bodyguard team that usually escorted Kenneth and Louisa.

Amos's cries were full of unbearable pain and despair.

Only extr"torture" could force such sounds from someone with Amos's tolerance for pain...

Serena's cold laughter filled the earpiece, "This is what happens when you call for help!"

A picture cthrough, showing Amos with a gaping wound in his stomach, his intestines pulled out...

The scene was gruesome, blood was everywhere...

Beyond the stomach wound, his body was covered in slashes...
