Arabella Donovan clung to Caspian Rhodes's arm, not daring to look back as she walked out of the Delicacy Pavilion. Only after confirming she was completely out of sight of the Foster Family members did she finally let out a sigh of relief, clutching her chest as if she'd just survived a catastrophe.
Caspian Rhodes found this both exasperating and amusing. "Are you really that scared? It's not like she was going to eat you."
"She wouldn't eat me, she'd swallow me whole," Arabella Donovan shot Caspian Rhodes a miserable glance. "Mr. Rhodes, have you ever heard of the three great curses of the New Year?"
"The three great curses?"
"'So, you've got a job now. How much do you make a month?'"
Caspian Rhodes: "???"
"'So, your kid's in school now? How are their grades?'"
Caspian Rhodes: "..."
"'You're already at that age, have you found someone yet?'"
"...Is it really that dramatic?"
