The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 948

Chapter 948

Rather than focusing on Serena's emotions, Clark was at the moment more concerned about Bella and Carol's injuries, so he didn't bother to explain much.

Serena, on the other hand, was growing increasingly upset when Clark didn't call back after she hung up. Tears were streaming down her face like pearls slipping off a string.

Martha, who was nearby, overheard the conversation and had an inkling that something was amiss. She asked cautiously, "Serena, do you think Clark is annoyed with you for disturbing them?"

"Clark is becoming more and more unreasonable,’ Serena huffed, angrily wiping away her tears. “He deliberately didn't answer my calls just now. I had to call four or five times before he would pick up. Then he asked if something was wrong. Can't I call him if there's nothing wrong? He even sounded irritated! As if I was interrupting something important!"

She sobbed a few times, then continued, "And he said he's been busy lately and asked me not to call or text him for a few days. What could he and Arabella possibly be busy with? Eating out, sightseeing, snapping photos?

That's not important! So busy that he doesn't have time even to answer my calls? Can't even bother to pretend to care about his sister!"

Serena cried for a while longer before she managed to say, "He claims to treat me like a sister, but it's all lies!

They're probably checking in at some tourist spot right now, having a great time! Arabella must have been gloating when she heard how Clark talked to me! She's probably just a step away from flaunting her victory in front of mel!"

She sniffled, "I don't see what's so great about her. She always acts so smugly, yet everyone likes her! Why, why doesn't anyone like me? Did Arabella make them act this way?"
