The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella and Romeo) novel Chapter 359

"Bella, grab a seat here." Louisa gestured for Arabella to sit on the chair placed between two hospital beds.

After seating, Bella naturally placed her hand on her Grandpa's wrist and said, "Grandpa, we're all hoping for your speedy recovery."

She then placed her other hand on her Grandma's wrist and said, "Grandma, can you hear me?"

Her gestures didn't slip past Hans' notice.

He was wondering: was his sister checking on their grandparents' condition?

Even though he heard that she saved Phillip before, their grandparents' condition seemed worse than Phillip's, and even the best doctor was helpless about it.

Louisa didn't notice her daughter's unusual actions. She placed her hand on the bed edge, whispering, "Who would have thought that fire 18 years ago took Bella away in the thick smoke? Thank God, she came back to me after 18 years. You have no idea how smart Bella is; she's young and yet capable of running a company, totally living up to your prime time!"

Louisa chuckled and then continued, "This must be genetic; we Collins family folks have the knack for business. That clothing company was on the brink of bankruptcy, but after Bella took over, it bounced back and even gained the support of many employees!"

Kenneth sat by Grandpa's bedside, feeling a bit choked up. "Dad, Louisa is right. You really should see Bella; she is beautiful, smart, business-savvy, knows music, and even designs clothes; there's nothing she's not good at! If you wake up and see such a granddaughter, you will be thrilled!"

Even though he said all that, he wasn't sure if the old man could hold on till he woke up.

Thinking about it, Kenneth felt even more choked up, and the urge to cry was overwhelming.
