StarNovelChapter 1348
Ten minutes later.
Arabella spotted Mr. Clarence ambling solo towards the restroom.
Before his hand even grazed the restroom door, Arabella knocked him out cold and dragged him to the adjacent terrace, swiftly
drawing the curtains closed.
The head of security had just seen Arabella heading in the direction of the restroom, and in the next moment, she had vanished
from sight.
His instincts on high alert, he first searched the area, then had one of the maids knock on the restroom door.
The maid's hand hadn't even touched the door when a soft cough of a woman could be heard from inside.
It was so brief that the head of security couldn't be sure if it was Arabella or not. He could only stand aside and keep a stealthy
watch.

Behind the curtain, Arabella transferred all the chat messages from Mr. Clarence’s phone to her own and set up remote monitoring.
Then, she slipped the phone back into Mr. Clarence's pocket, leaped onto the roof, and flicked a pebble at him to wake him up.
Mr. Clarence grunted in pain, groggily coming to, immediately alerting the head of security.
The head of security pulled back the curtain to find Mr. Clarence sitting on the ground and hurried over to help him up.
"Mr. Clarence, what are you doing here?"
Mr. Clarence's head throbbed painfully. He vaquely remembered heading to the restroom but couldn't figure out how he had passed
out.
Was it possible someone had tampered with something?
With this thought, he frantically checked his pockets. His keys and phone were still there, nothing seemed to be missing.
He breathed a sigh of relief. Maybe he had just run out of steam.
Just then, someone emerged from the restroom.
It was Eunice.
She walked with a seductive grace that caught the head of security's eye, making him suspect something was amiss.
Eunice made her way to the main hall, right as Arabella returned from a different route. Arabella smiled and asked her darling
niece, “Got it?"
“Yep, it's on my phone now."
Not only did Arabella secure the chat history, but she also set up real-tmonitoring of Mr. Clarence’s phone.
From then on, whatever messages Mr. Clarence received or sent, Arabella would see them too.
Eunice cast an approving glance at her niece. She hadn't expected one niece to be worth a hundred others.
Arabella's efficiency was so high, it was a true relief.
At that moment, Arabella noticed Calvin, Bess, and Arlen descending the stairs with grim expressions, seeming to have parted on
bad terms.
Then, Mr. Clarence received a message, which he relayed to Arlen. The gist was that the deed was done.

Arlen's eyes flickered with shock and delight. He seemed to hardly believe it, but Mr. Clarence nodded affirmatively, as if to say,
rest assured, our people witnessed it.
Reassured, Arlen invited all the guests to the garden for a fireworks display.
Under the grand fireworks, Arlen urged all the guests to raise their glasses and drink to their heart's content.
When the fireworks ended, he cut the cake amidst the crowd's cheers.
“What could possibly make him so jubilant?" Eunice noticed Arlen had been beaming since the beginning, an expression of triumph
she had never seen before.
“Somebody messaged Mr. Clarence a while ago, saying the problem had been taken care of; Arabella explained. "Perhaps this was
someone who had been a thorn in Arlen's side."
“It can only be your grandfather or uncle, but that's impossible,” Eunice stated confidently. "They don't have the means to take
care of anyone."
A servant brought over slices of cake to them. Arabella nibbled symbolically on a few bites, but soon after, she noticed quests
collapsing one by one.
Eunice too struggled to stand, massaging her temples.
