The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 1760

Eunice knew that once upon a time, Kenneth and Louisa had tried to play fair, but no matter what they did, that ungrateful brat was never satisfied, always feeling like they were playing favorites.

But now, they could let go of those worries.

"Let me do it." Louisa, feeling a bit embarrassed to have her sister-in-law feed her medication all the time, took the cup and downed the medicine in one gulp before asking, "Has the word been spread?"

Eunice nodded, "Yep, it's out there. As long as Erik doesn't show up, his darling daughter will go another day without food, and her injuries will go another day without treatment. If he has any ounce of decency, he'll show up within a couple of days."

"What if he doesn't care about this daughter? Why didn't he take her with him today? If he doesn't care, then what's the use of spreading the word? Will it even lure him out?" Louisa's worry was palpable.

They had never realized Erik was such a cunning snake, and if it wasn't for Bella catching his slimy tail, they might still be in the dark about this seemingly gentle and honest man's frightening true nature!

"If they didn't care about their daughter, they wouldn't have lived under an alias in our house for over a decade, watching her grow up. Just for that, he'll show up sooner or later. And when he does, we'll make sure he gets a taste of his own medicine. for three days and nights if necessary," Eunice thought, determined to get justice for Bella.

Just then, a servant timidly knocked on the bedroom door, "Ma'am, the person in the basement is asking to see you. She's been knocking for half an hour, and we really didn't know what to do but to ask you."

Louisa replied coldly, "No."

"Yes, ma'am," the servant quickly responded, "I'll deliver the message right away."
