The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella and Romeo) novel Chapter 1021

"Perhaps you should call Martha and let her give you some advice?"

Alma sneered, stepping further into the room. She pulled a tube of lipstick from her bag, freshening up her lips in the mirror.

"A foolish servant can hardly come up with any good advice!"

"You're talking as if you're some hotshot. Didn't you still lose to Arabella? I don't know why a defeated player like you dare to show off in front of me!" It was clear Serena looked down on her.

Alma smirked, her lips cold and beautiful. "Arabella's violin and chess skills are indeed better than mine. I heartily admit defeat to her. But you, after years of violin lessons, can't even play decently."

Serena clenched her fists, her eyes darting to the lipstick in Alma's hand, a limited edition from Louis Vuitton. The diamond necklace around her neck was a new design from VW Fashion. Even her dress and the heels she wore were all limited editions!

She had never seen them before!

Where did she get all the money to buy these?!

Suddenly, Serena remembered her aunt and uncle, including Alma and her sister, always appearing in expensive attire.

Even her parents didn't live as lavishly.

It seemed like their money was inexhaustible.

Seeing Serena staring at the lipstick in a daze, Alma coldly scoffed, "An adopted daughter is always an adopted daughter. Your attire is getting more and more modest. What, the Collins family can't afford to buy you decent clothes now?"

Furious, Serena gripped her purse tighter, swinging the chain towards Alma's back.

Alma quickly dodged, pushing Serena's head into the sink.
