The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 2080

The maid, Lana, was scared witless, fearing the blame would fall on her. She rushed to explain, "I didn't see anything."

Ever since Martin cut ties with his family, Florence was inconsolable and had gone home to recuperate.

"Mrs. Florence has been like a walking dead, numb and indifferent, sometimes even crying silently."

"Today is your engagement party, and Mrs. Florence hasn't slept since last night. She hasn't had a bite to eat or a drop to drink all day, and at 7 p.m., she silently went back to her room."

"We thought she was just tired and wanted to rest, but then there was this huge crash, and when we ran out, we realized that Mrs. Florence had jumped."

Lana, bowing deeply, quickly added, "Mr. Martin, I truly had no idea Mrs. Florence would take her own life. If I had known, I would have stopped her by any means necessary, staying right by her side."

She never imagined that when Florence argued with Martin and spoke in anger, she meant every word!

Florence had said that if Martin insisted on marrying Serena, she would jump into a river, off a building.

In short, she wanted to turn his joyful occasion into one of mourning.

She wanted to make him feel guilty for the rest of his life!

"When we found Mrs. Florence after she jumped, we immediately had the driver prepare the car and called for the master and Miss Diana. Mr. Ansel fainted on the spot when he saw Mrs. Florence's condition, and Miss Diana ordered us to take Mrs. Florence and Mr. Ansel to the hospital, while she went to confront you on her own."

It was only moments ago, when Lana overheard Martin on the phone, that she learned Miss Diana had also been in an accident and was rushed to the hospital for emergency surgery.

"She's on the twelfth floor in surgery. Wait there for her, and let me know the moment the surgery is over," Martin instructed with exhaustion.

"Yes, sir," Lana said quickly, bowing and retreating.

After a while, Martin received a video from one of his men.
