The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 2084

Fitch and Martin, relief etched across their faces, were like survivors of a catastrophe, grateful for every breath they took.

Only Serena maintained a facade of calm, though inside her, a storm raged.

As a nurse wheeled out a gurney, Fitch quickly approached it. Leaning over, he whispered tenderly, “Diana, can you hear me? It’s Fitch, I’m here for you.”

“The anesthesia hasn't worn off yet, she’s still unconscious and can't hear you,” the nurse informed him. “Family members, please follow me. There are a few things you need to know.”

Fitch hurried to keep pace with her. “What things?”

“Are you a relative?” the nurse glanced at him and continued, “I'll show you how to read some of the equipment and vital signs in the ICU. That way, you'll know when to ring for help and when there’s no need.”

Fitch followed her into the room.

Serena tugged at Martin’s hand anxiously, “Shall we go?”

Fitch was too intimidating, and she couldn't bear another second in his presence.

Although Martin wanted to stay with his sister, considering the hostility between Fitch and Serena, he decided to head back to the sixteenth floor where his parents were staying.

He arranged for a VIP room for Serena to rest in after her bath. When time came to sleep, he gave her the bed and unfolded a cot for himself.

Meanwhile.

Arabella had Stinger locked up in the basement of Reflections Villa.

Since the incident with Erik, she had increased security, making it the safest place to keep an eye on their captive.
