NovelOnlineChapter 844 Romeo flashed a reassuring grin. "Don't worry, Clark. The only person who can ditch me in this lifetime is Bella." "What are you talking about? You're making my sister sound like some heartbreaker!" At the end of the clear glass walkway, they stood side by side ina huge heart-shaped structure, chatting and laughing as they admired the distant scenery.
That evening, as Romeo dropped the siblings off at the Reflections Villa, he noticed a Rolls-Royce parked at the entrance.

"I guess | should leave then. Don't want to intrude on your folks," Romeo addressed Bella before him with a tender smile. "Get some rest." "Sure, drive safe." "Will do." Witnessing their reluctance to say goodbye, Clark suddenly felt like a third wheel.
Inside the villa, Louisa greeted the young woman with a beaming smile. "Crystal, you look even prettier than the last time | saw you." "You're too kind.” Crystal Temple lit up the room with her vivacious energy. "Actually, without makeup, you're naturally beautiful, Louisa.
And with makeup, you are like a goddess descending to Earth." Louisa chuckled, thoroughly flattered. "Your silver tongue never fails to charm." "Flowers can't hold a candle to you, Louisa. A blooming bud lacks your grace and elegance, a fully bloomed flower isn't as breathtaking, and a wilting flower is simply no match for your timeless beauty." Louisa laughed heartily.
"Crystal has always been lively and intelligent. She brings joy to everyone around her, Kenneth proudly shared with his old friend Alger Temple. "Having her at home is like having a warm coat on a cold day. She makes life so much warmer." "Ha! Our 'warm coat’ has some leaks, I'm afraid. Just graduated, and she’s already thinking about Clark." “Haha, what did Clark do to deserve such attention.” Kenneth laughed heartily. “He went out with his sister this afternoon and hasn't returned yet." Just as he finished speaking, a servant reported, “Mr. Clark and Miss Bella have returned." Crystal's eyes lit up with anticipation as she turned towards the villa entrance.
“Speak of the devil, and he shall appear. Allow me to introduce you to my recently found daughter, Arabella Collins." Louisa gently held Arabella’s hand and introduced her to the Temples. “Bella, this is Alger, Celeste, and their daughter Crystal.

“Is that Bella? She's so pretty!” Celeste Temple scanned Arabella from head to toe, clearly pleased with what she saw. “I wonder which lucky boy will end up with her." “Isn't she supposed to marry into the McMillian family? She and Romeo would make a perfect couple. Not bad.” Alger nodded in approval.
“Bella, you're even prettier than Starmoon, the girl who broke the internet on Facebook a while ago. I'm so happy to meet you. I'm a friend of your brother, Clark." So this Crystal was here for Clark? “Alger, Celeste, long time no see.” Clark gave Crystal a brief look.
“Made it, huh?" “I didn't know you were so protective of your sister.” Crystal's smile was radiant. “Heard you took her out?" “I just went along for the ride, really. Played the role of the third wheel." “It's been a while, but Clark, you've become even more handsome." Celeste's eyes twinkled with amusement. “I bet there are many girls chasing after you." “I'm usually busy with work.” was all Clark could say.
“Crystal has also been busy with her studies. Now that she’s graduated, she wants to return home to help run our business.
Since she’s our only daughter, Alger and | plan to groom her to be our successor."
