The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 1533

He always had a way of handling his business that left no trace, no loose ends.

"Get a good sleep," Arabella said, not blaming him but rather reminding him, "Don't forget about David's concert the day after tomorrow."

"I'll pick you up for it."

"Alright."

As soon as Arabella finished speaking, a servant came running over. "Ms. Bella, it's terrible—Serena's been attacked, and bitten by a snake, too! The family doctor won't be here for another hour. What should we do? The master and mistress are out, and we're all at a loss."

"Take her to the hospital." Romeo surely didn't want his girl tending to Serena's wounds, "Bella's had a long day already."

"We better hurry and get Serena to the hospital then." the servant scurried back inside.

A gleam of interest sparkled in Arabella's eyes as she looked at Romeo. "Bitten by a snake?"

Did this guy actually have someone scare Serena with a snake?

"It's not poisonous."

If it weren't for the fact that she was still tied to the Collins family, he would have used venomous ones tonight.

A smile curled on Arabella's lips. With a flicker of amusement in her expression, she said. "Then I'm heading in."

"Right, get some rest," Romeo patted the young girl's head. "Don't worry about her. Even without a doctor, you're not to treat her."

She wouldn't die that quickly.

"Don't worry, I don't save just anyone."

Romeo's laughter echoed; this was his girl, alright.

"You can also just scan the QR code on the ticket," the nurse suggested.

"Alright." Martin looked at Serena briefly before following the instructions.

Serena couldn't fathom how her life had come to this. If Romeo had been here, the nurses would be bending over backward to please her, and she wouldn't have to deal with any of this red tape. The hospital director would probably have come rushing over in the middle of the night to attend to her personally.

It was clear; Martin was useless compared to Romeo. With Romeo around, not to mention his bodyguards, Romeo himself would have been enough to protect her and ensure she got home safely. None of this would have happened.

After Martin paid, the nurse administered the injection and handed over some prescriptions for them to take home.

"These are oral medications. If the pain becomes too much, these can help alleviate it. And these are for external application," the nurse explained, indicating instructions and dosages.

Martin anxiously inquired, "She has so many injuries. Are they serious? Does she need to be hospitalized? Is there any bone damage?"

"We took her some X-rays, and there's no bone damage, but she'll be in pain for a couple of weeks. There's quite a bit of bleeding after all."
