The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 2083

He couldn't reach Diana all night long, and upon checking, discovered she had been in a car accident. The vehicle was totaled!

"Serena is family to me," Martin clarified.

"I don't care who she is. Diana doesn't like her, doesn't want to see her. Diana is in there fighting for her life, and you can't do anything to help. The least you could do is not make things worse," Fitch said, casting an unhappy glance at Serena. "Just leave!"

"Martin, your friend doesn't seem to like me." Serena said in a pitiful tone from her wheelchair, tugging at Martin's sleeve, "If that's the case, I won't stay and be a burden."

"You know you're a burden? Then why did you even come? I can't stand your pretentious act. Don't you feel disgusted with yourself? Do you think we're blind and can't see through your act? Just leave, we don't need you here, and don’t bother visiting Diana with your fake concern."

"Fitch," Martin said, looking at his friend with a warning in his eyes.

"If you don't like what I'm saying, then don't bring her around me and Diana again. And about Diana's accident, don't you find it suspicious? If it was deliberate, whoever's behind it, I'll make sure they pay dearly," Fitch said, his last words were almost spat out as he glared at Serena.

"I've checked the road surveillance where my sister's accident happened. It was a truck driver who fell asleep at the wheel. It has nothing to do with Serena."

"A truck driver falls asleep on a mountain road? Have you lost your mind?"

"The road surveillance was unedited."

"And what if someone drugged the truck driver with sleeping pills beforehand?"

Fitch's words sent a wave of panic through Serena's eyes.

That flicker of panic was immediately caught by Fitch. So, it truly was Serena?! Diana opposed Serena being with Martin, so Serena wanted to get rid of her?

Fitch looked like he wanted to strangle her, but in the next second, Martin stepped in front of Serena, glaring at his former friend.
