The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 1270

Chapter 1270

Serena's heart sank further. Why was this incredibly insightful gentleman not willing to teach her personally, instead insisting on having her study under a tutor?

Was it because he was afraid she might outshine Arabella?

It reeked of favoritism.

Afraid his own daughter would be surpassed.

"Serena, you've grown up pampered and sheltered. Everything your sister knows, she learned through grit and determination. You could start with some simple theory from a well-known tutor. Oh, what are you interested in? What do you want to learn?"

Serena flashed a sweet smile, "I'll let you know when I decide what I want to learn. Dad, has Arabella visited Grandpa in Dawnstar? How's his health?"

"Let me tell you, your sister is impressive. She spotted the problem as soon as she got there."

In his excitement, Kenneth got a swift kick from Louisa, reminding him to watch his words.

Sure enough, Serena's eyes dimmed for a moment before she quickly resumed her cheerful derneanor, “Arabella is indeed incredible. She noticed a problem that so many doctors overlooked."

“All of that comes with experience, from saving so many people,” Louisa interjected, “Now, Serena, your father and I are going for a walk. Enjoy the fruits."

Seeing the carefully arranged fruit platter barely touched by her parents, Serena felt a pang of disappointment.

"Dad, Mom, it's been a while since I've seen Grandpa. When can we all visit?” Serena asked, a hopeful glint in her eyes.
