The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella and Romeo) novel Chapter 371

"It might take over twenty days for them to regain consciousness."

"I've heard their condition is pretty sticky," Romeo paused before adding, "but I trust you'll figure out a way, no matter the problem, as long as you're on it."

Arabella gave a small smile, "You have faith in me?"

"Yes," Romeo affirmed, "to you, the world splits into two kinds, the living and the dead. As long as they're still breathing, you'll find a way to save them."

Arabella thought of her ongoing project, heavily funded but not progressing as well as she wished. She sighed, "But there are so many diseases in the world I can't cure."

"That's why you decided to go private with your research. You want to help more people, give those who are sentenced by their illnesses a chance to live. You're doing your best."

"Do you think I'm chasing rainbows?"

"No, on the contrary, I think doctors should be like you, serving patients with an unselfish spirit. That's real nobility."

Hearing this, Arabella felt a warmth in her heart.

"You're amazing," Romeo laughed, "I'm so proud to have such a brilliant fiancée."

After chatting, Arabella ended the call, took a bath, and went downstairs for a late-night snack.

"Ms. Bella, are you done with work? This soup is specially prepared for you by the Madam," Edith brought out a bowl of soup from the kitchen, smiling, "Try it and see if you like it."

Seeing that Edith hadn't rested yet, Arabella said, "You should go to bed. It's late. I don't need taking care of."

"I'm not sleepy," Edith laughed, looking very kind.

Arabella tried a few spoonfuls of soup, then asked softly, "Did my brother talk with Serena tonight?"

Edith was taken aback, "Ms. Bella, how did you know?"

"I guessed," Arabella said coolly.
