Chapter 384:

Marissa darted out of the house and almost collided with Arabella.

Arabella had set her alarm and woken up early, eager to share breakfast with her. Seeing Marissa hurrying off, Arabella called out, “Sweetie, where are you headed?”

Marissa didn’t stop, waving to Arabella with a smile. “Grandma, something urgent came up, so I can’t join you for breakfast. I’m sorry!”

As she spoke, she was already out of the yard.

Arabella watched her go, disappointment etched on her face. Mumbling her grievances, she made her way into the house, heading straight to the dining room to find Connor.

Connor was just as perplexed about Marissa’s sudden departure. But knowing he couldn’t control her, he let it be. Seeing Arabella, he immediately stood to assist her.

After sitting down, Arabella pouted. “What on earth is Tiffany rushing off to do? She couldn’t even stay for breakfast? I got up early just for her.”

Connor, while helping her with some dishes, smiled and reassured her, “She must have something really important to handle. Please understand. Didn’t she spend a lot of time with you last night?”

“Will she be back tonight?” Arabella asked.

“Yes!” Connor replied confidently.
