The Million-Dollar Heart by Rebecca Ryan

Chapter 30

Arabella and Coral’s faces turned pale as two problems popped up one after the other.

The crowd seemed to look at them with a hint of strangeness.

Arabella was uncomfortable under the gaze of others. Just as she was about to speak, someone beat her to it. “So it was Ms. Vivienne who saved the day, not Arabella. Hmm, didn’t someone just say she was one of the talented ladies in Havenwood? She posed as someone else and even took the credit and reward that weren’t hers.”

The speaker was Charlotte Redwood, the third young miss of the Redwood family in Havenwood. The Redwoods were rich and powerful, and no one could compete with them in this city.

All the Redwood children were outstanding talents in various fields, except for Charlotte.

However, she was upright and had many friends, but for some reason, she had a strong dislike for Arabella.

An extreme dislike!

Perhaps, she couldn’t stand Arabella always playing the innocent.

Arabella suddenly turned her head and glared at Charlotte, furious to the point of grinding her teeth.

This annoying Charlotte, she’s always looking for trouble with her!

Seeing Arabella’s glare, Charlotte glared back, “What? Can’t admit what you’ve done? I thought you were noble, but you’re nothing more than an adopted child. People give you the best of everything, and you still play the victim. What’s your deal?“.

As soon as these words fell, the crowd’s gaze towards Arabella was like being pierced by thorns.

Arabella felt rigid all over.
