The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 805

Chapter 805

Lucas, Beverly, and Alma arrived.

"Mom, I rushed right over when I heard you woke up. I can't believe it's true!" Beverly dashed towards Cornelia, wrapping her in a warm embrace, her cries filled with deep emotion. "We were so worried about you. Thank God you're awake!"

"I've heard you visited half as often as Louisa!" Cornelia said, feigning annoyance.

"Mom, we've been busy. Louisa and Kenneth were here too? And Serena and Bella!" Beverly looked around, noticing the other people in the room. She praised Arabella in front of everyone, "This girl is polite, responsible, beautiful, and talented."

"Yeah, Beverly and I both adore her’ Lucas interjected.

"I also like Bella, Serena, don't you?" Alma never missed an opportunity to provoke Serena.

Serena gave a graceful smile, "Of course, who wouldn't like such an outstanding girl?"

"I thought you might hold a grudge against Bella because of Romeo." Alma said, her smile innocent and pure.

“Why would I? Who my brother-in-law likes is his business. Besides, I have a boyfriend now."

Serena suppressed her urge to hit Alma, maintaining her polite smile. "Thank you for your blessings."

Cornelia, of course, knew her two granddaughters loved to bicker whenever they met. Yet, after so many years, she saw their disputes as harmless banter between children. She had grown accustomed to it.

"You give me a headache as soon as you arrive,’ Cornelia chuckled.

"Grandma, you complain if we don't come, and you complain when we do. So should we come or not?" Alma complained playfully, taking Cornelia's hand. "Do you only not get a headache when Serena visits? You've always favored her."
