The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 1687

Arabella switched her wine glass with his and downed the contents in one swift gulp, "40 million - my final offer, hoping you'll sell me Els Island."

To Arabella, Els Island was a haven of herbs; to Steward, a wasteland of weeds; to Sean, one of many forgotten islets until now.

Sean watched her with an amused smile, the wine untouched in his hand, "Give me one good reason why I should sell it to you," his voice was as light as the breeze.

"You're injured. Last night, I intentionally hit where it hurts. Did you see a doctor for that wound? Did they tell you it's serious - that you need surgery?"

Sean’s gaze landed on her - she had guessed right. Steward was taken aback. Did this girl have medical knowledge? How could she possibly know what the doctor said?

"Did the doc tell you that it's bad? That if you keep putting it off, you'll get symptoms like excruciating pain, dizziness, shortness of breath, to the point where you can't even walk?"

Sean's eyes narrowed, and with a cold chuckle, he sipped his wine, "This is why I must sell to you?"

It was too flimsy a reason.

"I can perform the surgery for you. What your doctors won't dare, I will."

"Who says my doctors won't dare?" Sean raised an eyebrow, a mocking glint in his deep-set eyes.

"If they could, you'd have had it by now. Clearly, they lack the skills, and the risk is too high," Arabella stated bluntly.\

But those doctors would never have the nerve to disclose Sean's medical issues. How did she know? And where did she get the courage to offer Sean surgery?

Sean, however, seemed unfazed as he asked, "Aren't you a bit too arrogant, girl, to question the competence of world-renowned doctors?"

He found her audacity somewhat familiar. She spoke with utter confidence in her medical abilities, as if fully believing in her own expertise.
