The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 1156

Chapter 1156

Alger wept bitterly, it took him a while to say, "Our little girl hurts so badly, yet she still asked us to forgive him."

On hearing this, Celeste knew who that ‘him referred to, and the tears instantly flowed.

No one had expected that when Crystal asked her father to come in, she wished for her father to forgive Clark.

She knew how her father gets, and knew that seeing her in such a state, her father would definitely seek revenge for her.

She was afraid her father would vent his anger on Clark, even knowing she was on the brink of death. She was still using her last bit of energy to protect this man.

Clark's eyes instantly reddened.

In this lifetime, he owed Crystal too much, way too much.

No one knew how much time had passed, the darkness of the night had turned into daylight, the lights in the operating room were still on, and seven or eight doctors and nurses were still battling death at the operating table.

Serena had already dozed off several times, she would have slept more soundly if it weren't for Celeste sobbing from time to time.

At this moment, the operating room door opened, and another nurse hurried out.

Celeste, who had cried for too long, rushed forward. Her head felt swollen and her body swayed a little, clearly unsteady.

"Nurse, what's the situation inside? It's been nine hours already.’ Celeste wept. These nine hours, 540 minutes, and 32,400 seconds, she had spent in anxiety and agony.

“Nine hours ago, the patient couldn't hold on any longer. It's all thanks to Dr. Bella who tried everything to keep her going until now, the nurse patiently explained. "I understand your family's feelings, but please trust the doctors inside. Each one of them has been fighting death for nine hours, without a second's rest."

Celeste's tears flowed again. She nodded, "Thank you for your hard work."

As the nurse passed by Serena, Serena shot her a glare.
