The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella)

Chapter 2018

Martin endured his mother's tirade with a stoic silence, waiting for her to finish before speaking calmly,

"Mom, don't get yourself worked up over this. I really love her, and I only want to spend my life with

her."

"And you couldn't fall for someone decent? With your status, you could have any woman you want! If

you fancied a beggar on the street, as long as she was kind-hearted and grateful, I wouldn't stand in

your way! But look at that Serena, is she behaving like a decent person? I knew she was trouble the

moment I met her at the Dawnstar boutique!"

"Mom, please don't insult her," Martin couldn't stand anyone bad-mouthing her, even if it was his own

mother. It still grated on his ears.

"I'm at the office right now, there are some things I need to handle. Cool off, and I'll find time to have a

proper talk with you tonight."

Florence, seething with rage, her voice tinged with anger retorted, "If you're thinking of brainwashing

us, save your breath. I'll publicly denounce her in front of the media. I'll never let her step foot into the

Cooper family!"

After hanging up abruptly, she collapsed onto the couch.

"Mom, are you okay?" Diana was terrified, quickly fetching a bottle of pills from the drawer. She handed

one to her mother along with a glass of water, "Take this pill. Don't get so agitated. She's not worth it."

Florence was livid, her hands shaking too much to even hold the glass, finally taking the pill with her

daughter's help.

"Diana," Florence steadied herself after a while, standing up unsteadily, "Come with me to the estate, I

want to have a word with this woman myself!"Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

"Alright," Diana rushed to support her, "But please, don't lose your temper, otherwise, we'll be heading

to the hospital before we even reach the estate. Don't worry, I won't let her into our family. Just take a

deep breath."

Diana still remembered how Serena had commanded the salesclerk to snatch dresses from Arabella's

hands at the Style Plaza. When it turned out Arabella had connections, Serena was thrown out of the

store.

The entire Style Plaza was afraid to serve her, so she stood in front of the shop hurling insults, calling

the clerk worthless trash.

Years of good breeding made it difficult for Diana to even utter those words - it was just too vulgar.

And the worst part? After berating the clerk, Serena had the audacity to smirk, as if she had gotten

something off her chest.

Going on about who she was, how much she had spent at another shop, and if anyone knew who

Kenneth was.

It was a public embarrassment, completely unbecoming.

Later, when accompanying her parents to scout land, Diana stumbled upon Martin's car parked there.

She didn't tell her parents but made an excuse to check it out, only to find Martin taking Serena on a

date to the lavender fields.

In short, she was a drama queen.

So, Diana had not a shred of good impression of Serena! Reąd at Drąmаոоvеls.com

If someone like Serena were to marry into the Cooper family, it wasn't just Martin's future at stake; she

could potentially ruin the future of the entire Cooper family.
