The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella and Romeo) novel Chapter 252

Arabella quickly helped the shop owner to her feet and gave her a once-over. Luckily, it was only a flesh wound.

"Get out of here, I bet they're going to bring more goons." The shop owner tried to stand a few times, but she was too weak and dizzy.

Arabella pulled out a wad of cash from her bag, "This should cover tonight's damage."

"No, no, I can't take this." The shop owner could tell they were the innocent ones, not the troublemakers.

"Just take it." Arabella shoved the money into her pocket, hailed a cab, and only after she had left did she pick up her bunny purse.

The purse was dirty, and so was everything inside it.

A flicker of displeasure crossed her eyes, she was going to find out who was behind it. And they wouldn't get off easily!

"Ms. Bennett, shall we get you to the hospital?" Molly was nearly in tears, blaming herself. If she hadn't suggested going for a barbeque, they wouldn't have been attacked.

The place was desolate, with few passerby and no surveillance.

"It's just a scratch, no big deal." Arabella checked her hand and other places, "Do you have the medicine I mentioned at home?"

"Yes, yes!" Molly quickly wiped her tears.

"Let's put some on when we get home."

Luckily, nothing was broken.

"Let's go." Arabella escorted Molly to the residential gate first.

"Ms. Bennett, who were those people? And your hand."

"It's okay, it'll be fine tomorrow."

As for who they were, Arabella had no clue. She only knew that they specifically targeted them tonight.

The shop owner was dragged into this mess.
