The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 1221

Chapter 1221

Why hadn't she realized the family's bias before?

At this moment, Martha knocked on her door, not waiting for her consent, she pushed the door open impatiently.

“Serena, I'm sorry I'm late."

Martha saw the girl sitting on the bed, her eyes red and swollen from crying, and her heart ached. "Il had the day off today. Remember, you said the bakery items at Tranquil Haven Cafe were delicious, so I queued up for three hours just to buy some for you. But when I got home, that wicked witch wouldn't let me bring them in. She said Hans had punished you by making you reflect on your actions in your room."

This wicked witch was none other than Edith.

Seeing the panting Martha who had rushed over, caring about her, the last defense in Serena's heart broke, and she cried even harder.

“Serena, don't cry." Martha was at a loss for words to comfort her.

Serena had never cried out loud like this before, even the vigilant Edith standing outside the door could hear her clearly.

Seeing her crying her heart out, all Martha could do was to hand her some tissues and wait for her to stop crying before wiping her tears.

“Martha" Serena lifted her swollen eyes and asked in a hoarse voice, “Do you still remember, long time ago, when Hans invited me to the observation deck to chat?"

“Of course, I remember." Martha said while bending down to help her wipe her tears, “Hans said, it was normal for everyone to be concerned about Arabella's feelings as she had just returned home. You might have misunderstood that everyone was treating you differently than before. But in everyone's eyes, you were still a part of this home, nothing had changed"

Serena didn't expect Martha to remember so clearly. Tears fell again. At that time, Hans spoke so sincerely, she believed him.
