Chapter 10 Same Face!

• Author's POV
• "You are always aware of your surroundings, how did you get shot?"
• Arthur frowned.
• Oliver cleared his throat. He was back home.
• "Mistakes happen!"
• Arthur didn't bother to ask anything regarding that, he is not fond of stretching conversation unnecessarily.
• "I'll be leaving tomorrow."
• Oliver wasn't happy about it.
• "The deal is mine. I'll be back..."
• Arthur rolled his eyes.
• "Don't worry, I am not interested in your things... Your choices don't suit me."
• "Good, it shouldn't either... Because I don't like to share my things."
• He mocked.
• "I am not fond of used things either."
• He replied in the same tone.
• Meanwhile Arabella was now getting slowly comfortable in the Orphanage. The days passed and she forgot about Oliver while getting mixed with girls.
• But she was still scared that Brian would come for her.
• "Where are we going?"
• She asked Julie as they walked in a group.
• "Townhall, we have a performance there. Don't worry, you are not participating..."
• She laughed when she saw Arabella's horrified expressions.
• "It's a charity event. People donate money for orphanages there."
• "What performance?"
• Arabella was curious.
• "Royal wedding and I am the prince... Unfortunately Jenny is a bride because she thinks she is the most beautiful girl in the orphanage. Thank God she didn't say, in the world."
• She scowled.
• "It suck to act with her."
• Girls gathered in the townhall and Arabella was watching them getting ready for the play.
• Jenny was still doing her makeup and the bridal gown was still on the hanger.
• "Jenny, can you get your ass hurry up a little... We are next and you are still doing makeup."
• Julie was annoyed.
• "Shut up, you are so annoying... I am the bride, I want to look royal."
• Jenny scowled while brushing her hair.
• Julie groaned frustrated.
• "Idiot, the bride is from the poor family and she is supposed to look poor in front of the prince. You are not supposed to wear makeup for that... You are changing the look of the play... Wash your makeup now!"
• Jenny got offended.
• "I am not going on the stage without makeup..."
• "I am the leader of this play, you have to follow my orders."
• Julie argued.
• "Oh really, your orders are dumb like you... I am not playing this role anymore and guess what, you don't have any other beautiful girls... So all the best with that."
• She mocked her.
• "Your play is ruined and Matilda will be proud of after the stunt you pulled last week and got yourself killed."
• "I don't need you.. I have a new bride."
• Julie yelled.
• "Arabella, come here"
• Arabella gasped when Julie pulled her up from the seat. She looked at her with wide eyes.
• Jenny burst out into a mocking laugh.
• "First teach her how to talk... Stupid!"
• Arabella got trapped because of their stupid fight.
• "I can't do this... I'll freeze on the stage."
• "Excellent, you have to do exactly that... It's a poor, nervous bride anyways... Jenny was talking unnecessarily."
• Julie threw the bridal gown at her.
• "Get changed and remember, no makeup."
• Arabella wore the dress because Julie wasn't letting her go.
• She stood on the stage and froze. Julie handled the play and finished it.
• Matilda was looking proud of them but suddenly she collapsed on the floor. Arabella and Julie rushed towards her and asked for the help.
• The people around them were quick to take her to the hospital.
• Everything happened so fast that girls didn't even get the time to process. Julie was crying her heart out while Arabella was silent as always.
• "Stop crying, doctors will throw us out."
• She mumbled at Julie who was too loud.
• "Matilda is like a mother to me. If anything happens to her then I'll die. How can god make her sick, she is a good human."
• She complained.
• "Girls, go back to the orphanage. We are here with Matilda..."
• The other nun said.
• "We want to help, can we stay here. Please?"
• Arabella requested, she was also feeling bad for Matilda. She still remembers how she got her back from Oliver even when she knew that he is a criminal.
• The nun agreed and let them stay.
• "Okay, buy these medicines from the pharmacy. Tell them that the treatment is paid by charity."
• Arabella nodded and went out alone. She gave the prescription to the guy and he looked at her bridal dress confused.
• "It will be paid by charity."
• She told him.
• He looked at the prescription and shook his head.
• "Medicines are not paid by charity, only the cost of surgery will be paid by charity... Sorry, you have to pay first."
• "But I was told that medicines are also covered in charity."
• She looked at him confused.
• "No, girl... Get your facts clear. Go and bring the money."
• He gave her the prescription back.
• Julie came out to look for her.
• "What's taking you so long?"
• Arabella told her everything.
• "What do we do now? Let's ask for help."
• Arabella saw how Julie was approaching people and was asking for a donation. People in the town know that she is from an orphanage so they were giving her whatever cash they could but still it wasn't enough for paying bills.
• Arabella was not used to the way which julie was using but she also decided to do the same although she knew that she can't convince people like Julie.
• She looked around and saw a man standing by the expensive car, she thought he might help because he looked rich.
• Arthur was waiting for his bodyguard to come back with their stuff. He was busy talking to his mother when he felt someone standing behind him.
• He frowned and turned around just to find the most serene face he has ever seen.
• Arabella was standing behind the man, nervous to call him but he turned around by himself like he felt her presence and she froze when she saw his face.
• He looked exactly like Oliver but the eyes were grey. She looked at him shocked and confused.
• Arthur also stared at her face like he had seen the angel for the first time. She was wearing a bridal gown on top of that.
• She was looking breathtakingly beautiful and what surprised him was that, she wasn't even wearing makeup.
• Arabella stepped back scared, she understood that he is not Oliver because eyes were different and he also didn't recognise her but it doesn't matter. She doesn't want to get kidnapped again.
• She stepped back again and turned around to leave but he grabbed her wrist and stopped her making her freeze.
