The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 1324

Chapter 1324

After dinner, Arabella and Eunice left the restaurant and took the elevator down to the lobby.

Outside, the world was a white blur as large snowflakes began to fall like feathers from heaven.

That was when Eunice’s phone rang, her tone souring instantly, "You let her go?"

On the other end, Leno was taken aback, having thought that roughing up Serena was enough. He hadn't expected his boss to insist on keeping her.

"It's my fault, ma'am! I'll bring her back immediately"

“Just text me the location,’ Eunice commanded.

It dawned on Leno that she intended to handle Serena personally.

Meanwhile.

After a brutal beating, Serena finally wriggled out of the sack as she heard her assailants’ footsteps fade away.

The ally was deserted, stretching endlessly under the snowy night sky.

She was crying and her heart shattered with fear, she spotted her purse not far away. Wincing with pain, she crawled towards it, trembling hands fumbling for her phone.

Terrified and in disarray didn’t begin to describe her state. She knew there was only one person in all of Dawnstar who could save her!

She scrolled through her contacts and dialed Bard's number.

The call connected in seconds, and Bard's calm voice came through.

"Serena.

Tears choked her words, “Uncle Bard. I've been bullied!"

Bard's voice immediately filled with concern, “What happened? Where are you? Who did this to you?"

Through her sobs. "Please send someone to Hill Street to pick me up."
