The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 828

Chapter 828

The next morning, bright and early.

Jennifer was pulling George along with her, heading to the hospital to visit Bernard and Cornelia.

"I'm so thrilled to see you both awake.” Jennifer's smile was graceful and charming. "I heard that Bella was the one who saved you. Her medical skills are simply extraordinary. She saved me once too."

Jennifer started to recount the incident when she was betrayed by her best friend, poisoned with a dangerous toxin, and Bella was her savior. Otherwise, the consequences would have been disastrous.

"That friend of yours is truly devious." Cornelia couldn't help but sympathize with Jennifer. "You treated her like family, and yet she betrayed you like this."

“Eventually, she couldn't find a competent doctor to detoxify her and got what she deserved.” Jennifer's gaze dimmed momentarily.

Noticing a sketch on the bedside table, she couldn't help asking, “Is this Bella's work?"

"How can you recognize that?" Bernard seemed slightly surprised from his hospital bed.

“I can recognize Mirabelle's style anywhere.” Jennifer picked up the sketch to admire it. She was amazed that someone could create such a masterpiece with just a ballpoint pen and a piece of A4 paper. "It's profound and lifelike. Bella's artistic prowess is truly impressive."

"She's also a renowned calligrapher.’ Bernard added with a chuckle.

“I know. Bella has so many talents. It's hard to keep track. You two are truly blessed to have such an exceptional granddaughter."

Jennifer couldn't help showering Arabella with praises. "She's beautiful, intelligent, modest, kind, and well-behaved. George and I adore her."

"Indeed, having such a daughter-in-law is a blessing for our McMillian family.” George echoed Jennifer's sentiments. "Rest assured, Bella will always be treated well in our family."

"Romeo wanted to come too today, but something urgent came up at the company." Jennifer then gestured towards the gifts nearby.

"These are from Romeo. He wanted to show his respect to you both."

"That's very kind of him.’ Cornelia knew that Jennifer and George's visit and Romeo's generous gifts were all because they approved of Arabella.
