The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 1162

Chapter 1162

The argument that had just transpired echoed in the ears of the nurse, and she was filled with sympathy.

But Arabella didn’t hear it. She was on the phone with Grandpa Beck, confirming their research findings.

Grandpa Beck relayed the results of several tests to her, and she shared her input. It was Grandpa Beck's job to tweak accordingly.

Hearing the nurse, Arabella asked the person on the phone to hold on, then turned to the nurse, “What's up?"

Suddenly, the sound of a single beep echoed from the EKG, as Carol gave up hope of survival, her eyes closing.

"Damn, the patient has no will to live,” the nurse said urgently. “Dr. Bella, what do we do?"

“Grandpa, get the antidote here as soon as you're done!” Arabella hung up the phone, immediately diving into the rescue work.

"Hey, I didn't finish. This antidote hasn't passed the final test. If there are any side effects, who's responsible?"

Unfortunately, Grandpa Beck's last words were cut off by the dial tone. He tried calling Arabella twice more, but she didn't pick up. She must've been busy.

Clark was waiting outside, and soon enough, he saw several doctors rushing to assist Arabella.

Clark was growing anxious, unsure if something had happened to Carol. The moment the door swung open, he rushed to peek inside, but he couldn't see anything. All he could hear was the nurse's voice, saying the patient was in critical condition.

He knocked on the door frantically, shouting, “Carol, Carol, you must hang on! You promised me, you said you would stay with me forever. Carol, you can't back out now!"

“Sir, I'm sorry, could you please lower your voice?” A nurse emerged from the room, pleading. “You're disrupting the doctors."

“How's Carol? Nurse, is she okay?” Clark asked anxiously.

“The patient has lost the will to live, probably because of your argument."
