The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 183

Chapter 183 

When he found out she hadn’t eaten yet, Caden dropped his chopsticks in a flash and headed to the cafeteria to grab her some grub. 

Arabella wanted to tell him not to bother, planning to grab a bite herself at the company cafeteria after visiting Granny Grace and checking out what’s been cooking there lately. 

But Caden, worried she might be starving, dashed off to grab her food. 

Walking into the hospital room, Arabella spotted a thin bracelet in Granny Grace’s hand right away. 

It was something she’d gotten for Granny Grace with her first paycheck. 

Every time she woke up, she’d hunt for it, clutching it tightly once she found it. 

Arabella sat down by the bed, gently taking the bracelet from her hand. To her surprise, the old lady on the bed seemed to sense it and slowly opened her eyes. “Bella, is that you?” Grace Murphy, with her snow–white hair and kind eyes, looked at Arabella, her voice weak but excited. “You’re finally here.” “Granny.” 

The moment Arabella spoke, the old woman started tearing up. “After sleeping for so many days, I finally get to hear my granddaughter’s voice.” 

“Your body hasn’t recovered yet; don’t get too worked up. Arabella wiped away her tears, adjusted the bed a bit higher, and then poured her a cup of water. “Drink 

some water first.” 

“Okay.” Grace took the water offered by Arabella, obediently drank it all, and then held the girl’s soft hand and asked, “Did Olga and her gang give you a hard time?” Arabella gave a small smile and asked, “No.” 

“A few days ago, when I woke up, I heard her say she was sending you back to your biological family.” Just thinking about it, Grace was fuming, almost out of breath. 

Arabella quickly rubbed her back to soothe her, saying, “Granny, don’t be upset. My biological parents are quite nice to me.” 

“Really?” 

“Really.” Arabella smiled gently. “Do I look in any way like I’ve been mistreated?” 

Grace’s life experience told her the clothes on Arabella were all high–end, although she couldn’t make out any brand. But the quality and the design are all top–notch. Even the pretty crown necklace she was wearing around her neck. 

She was a bit surprised; the necklace looked strangely familiar, as if she’d seen it somewhere. 

But after racking her brain and coming up empty, she let it slide. 

Not to mention the beautiful butterfly bracelet on Arabella’s wrist, made from high–quality diamonds. 

Her biological family must be well–off! 

The thought of this smart and adorable girl not being her real granddaughter made Grace’s heart ache. And that heartless Olga, driving such a wonderful child away without a second thought to family ties! 

“Granny, if you get this worked up every time you see me, I might be too scared to come again.”
