The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 1224

Chapter 1224

“Listen, if Hans ever finds a way to pin this on us, I'll take the fall. I'll say it was all my idea, and that you had nothing to do with it"

Serena had never expected such loyalty from a servant. It was as if Martha was more of a family than her own kin, and the realization moved her.

“With me by your side, Serena, I'll make sure Arabella understands the consequences of crossing you!" Martha's eyes flashed with a hard edge at the mention of Arabella.

"Oh, and another thing. If you ever run into Arabella when there aren't any others around, don't feel the need to be polite." Martha advised.

Arabella had taken their kindness for granted in the past. Well, she wouldn't blame them if they showed no mercy from now on!

"Don't worry, Martha. I won't be polite to her anymore." Serena seemed to have made a decision, her eyes filled with a vengeful light.

Meanwhile, Louisa woke up with a start from a nightmare.

Sitting up in her bed, heart still pounding, she glanced at the clock to find it was already evening. She quickly changed and prepared to head out.

“Ma'am, where are you off to? Dinner's almost ready." a servant tried to persuade her in the living room.

“I'm not hungry. Louisa replied, wrapping a scarf around her neck. "By the way, did you invite Serena's friends to stay for dinner?"

"They've left."

“They left?" Louisa was surprised, wondering why they hadn't stayed for a meal.

The servant hesitated, wanting to mention the argument that seemed to have taken place between Serena's friends that afternoon.
