The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 1395

Chapter 1395

The figure dissolved into a mist and slowly dispersed into the air.

Arabella couldn't grab hold of anything and burst into heartbreaking sobs right there.

"Bella, Bella’ Romeo said softly, unable to bear the sight of her tear-streaked face. "Can you hear me?"

Opening her tear-filled eyes, Arabella realized she was still nestled in Romeo's arms, the boat gently gliding along Luminescent Brook, with the Emerald Tower, the surrounding buildings, and other boats all still in place.

What was missing was Grannie Grace.

It had all been a dream!

"What did you dream about?" Romeo gently wiped the tears from her eyes, his voice filled with concern. "You kept saying ‘don't go, don't leave’. Who was leaving?"

Arabella was still enveloped in profound sadness, burying her face into Romeo's chest to calm herself.

Guessing the cause of her distress, Romeo said, “Was it Grandpa Alberto, or Grannie Grace?"

Only those two could make her defenses crumble and reveal the vulnerable young girl within.

“It was Grannie."

"Did she come to see you?" he stroked her hair tenderly. “You must be worried about the surgery. She couldn't bear to see you so troubled, so she came to comfort you."

A fresh tear shone in Arabella's eye.

"You've done everything you could. It's not your fault. This condition has baffled medical history. You've been amazing."

Arabella’s eyes reddened once more.

“Dont cry now. Don't make Grannie Grace worry, Romeo said as he tenderly wiped her tears away.

After a while, Arabella spoke, "Grannie came to praise you."
