But now, Arabella was the leading lady, and she had been relegated to a mere spectator.
Meanwhile, Martha, who was resting in her room, heard from one of the maids that Serena had been standing on the second floor for a long time, seemingly crying and wiping away her tears in silence.
Having watched Serena grow up over the years, Martha understood her feelings well. She quickly sent someone to comfort Serena.
Debby, who always followed Martha's orders, quickly appeared with a change of clothes for Serena, feigning surprise, "Serena, what's wrong?" Serena quickly covered her mouth, "Shush." Luckily, the people downstairs burst into laughter, their loud guffaws covering any noises from the second floor.

When George and Jennifer finished their visit and were ready to return home, Kenneth and Louisa escorted them to the door, returning their gifts.
Arabella wasn't sure when her parents had prepared these gifts, but she could tell that both families valued her highly.
"Louisa, this is too much. We can't accept them;' Jennifer protested.
Louisa, however, insisted that her staff load the gifts into their car, "These are tokens of our appreciation. You must accept them." Listening to their parents call each other in-laws and argue over the gifts, Arabella was left in awe. In the end, Louisa won, returning most of their gifts and keeping only a few.
Romeo then politely said, "You should rest early. I'll take Bella back to school." But it seemed that Jennifer didn’t believe him.
