The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella)

Chapter 2089

Serena spoke up in a timid voice, "I'll handle his wound care. Just leave the medicine he needs."

The nurse had had enough of her. Ever since she found out that the entire Cooper family had been

hospitalized because of Serena's actions, and yet she strutted around the hospital like she owned the

place—almost as if she was parading in front of the three patients to claim her territory.

The nurse couldn't hide her disdain.

Now, hearing Serena's insincere offer to tend to Martin's wounds, she didn't bother to hide her

contempt. Rolling her eyes, she dropped the medicine on the table and walked away without a word.

Fuming, Serena couldn't believe that this lowly nurse, earning a measly paycheck, dared to treat her

with such disrespect.

If it weren't for Martin being so worked up and not noticing the exchange, she would have found a way

to ensure that the nurse lost her job.

"Martin, let me help you with the dressing," Serena said, pressing a button on the armrest of the

wheelchair to move closer and gently tugging at his sleeve. Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

The gesture melted Martin's heart, his anger subsiding considerably. He looked at Serena with a mix of

guilt and gratitude, "I'm sorry, Serena."

"I know. He's got a thing for your sister, and with her in this state, he's just torn up inside. He just wants

to figure out whether the crash was intentional or an accident."

Serena coaxed Martin into sitting down, her voice tender, "Actually, I'm kind of happy for your sister. To

have a guy who cares so much about her. I'm even more eager than he is for Diana to wake up. I hope

they can tie the knot soon."

Touched and heartbroken, Martin stroked her hair and pulled her close into his embrace.

"Even after what he did to you, you still speak so kindly of him." Martin's affection for her grew, along

with his sense of guilt.

"The fact that Diana was against our relationship and now she's in this condition—it's natural for him to

suspect me." Serena said understandingly, "Once he figures out that I have nothing to do with the

accident, and after seeing how I behave while your sister and parents are in the hospital, I believe that

they will eventually accept me."

Looking at her innocent face, Martin was moved even more.

"Let me tend to your wounds now." Serena said gently, "Look at you, fighting with your best friend.

Once this is all over, you guys will need to make peace. A friend who cares so much for you and loves

your sister is hard to find."

At that moment, a bodyguard knocked on the door and reported, "Sir, the truck driver responsible for

Miss Diana's accident has passed away after unsuccessful resuscitation efforts."

Serena heard this, continuing to dress Martin's wound with a calm demeanor.

"I understand, you can leave now," Martin replied, his attention fully on Serena. The fate of the driver

was of no concern to him.

She passed out from grief and, upon awakening, found a handsome, well-dressed young man by her

side.

"Who are you?" she asked, puzzled and defensive. Reаd at Dramanovеls.com

The driver's wife, baffled, asked, "Why are you helping me?"
