The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 1375

Chapter 1375

Grandpa was fine, and only then could she leave the house with peace of mind.

Romeo replied, [Sure thing, take your time.]

As Arabella approached Darren's bedroom door, she caught a whiff of that distinct smell of liniment—a clear sign that something was amiss. A housemaid, likely not expecting Arabella's sudden appearance, paled at the sight of her.

"Ms. Bella"

"Grandpa got hurt? Is that liniment I smell?"

Hearing Arabella's question, the maid bent deeply, clearly terrified, “Yes, Mr. Darren had a fall."

Without hesitation, Arabella hurried inside.

Meanwhile, Eunice, who had not yet finished her phone call, rushed over from the third-floor bay window where she had a clear view of Serena coaxing Darren to pick up the pace, which unfortunately led to his fall.

Following close behind Arabella, Eunice entered the room, her expression grim.

The maid knew the incident couldn't be kept secret any longer. Although Serena had strictly ordered her not to breathe a word about what had happened, if Ms. Bella were to find out somehow and the maid hadn't reported it, she'd face severe repercussions.

With that in mind, the maid bit her lip and dashed upstairs to find Darren.

Arabella quickly moved forward, passing through the living room to reach the master bedroom. There, she immediately saw Darren lying in bed, his expression twisted in pain, with Serena sitting beside him, seerningly at a loss for what to do.

"Grandpa, did you fell? What happened?” Arabella rushed to his side, noting his clothes were still damp.
