Chapter 185
Arabella gently slipped the bracelet onto Grace’s wrist and said, “This bracelet suits you perfectly.” With the bracelet on, Grace looked even more elegant.
Grace, beaming with joy, chatted away with Arabella until she was too tired to stay awake.
Arabella held her hand until she fell asleep and then carefully covered her with the blanket.
Meanwhile, Caden had been waiting outside the room all this time. Only when Arabella came out did he take her to the canteen.
They were both easy on the eyes, and together they were a.sight to behold.
Some nurses passing by couldn’t help but whisper among themselves.

“Isn’t she the one who saved Phillip McMillan? She and Dr. Caden make a great pair
“Both she and Dr. Caden are not only good–looking, but also excellent doctors.”
“I hope they end up together.”
“Pay no mind to them,” said Caden, leading Arabella into his office. His food had gone cold, but he wasn’t bothered. Arabella’s presence softened his expression. “Thank you for your hard work,” said Arabella.
“It’s fine. You should eat more; you’ve lost weight, Caden said, finding joy in watching Arabella eat.
That evening, when they got home, Serena ran up to Arabella in front of their parents and said, “Sis, the award ceremony is in a couple of days. Can you come to the Paramount theater with me?”
Paramount theater again?
Arabella remembered the phone call she received earlier that day. She hadn’t responded yet.
I’ll be performing the award–winning piece on stage. I’ll be a bit scared if it’s just me, but it’ll be different if you and mom and dad come with me! Sis, can you and mom and dad come cheer me on?” Serena pleaded.
Kenneth, smiling, asked, “Bella, are you busy with work lately? If not, let’s all go together. After the ceremony, let’s go out for dinner. It’s been a while since we’ve done that.”
Yeah, you’ve been back for over ten days, and we’ve only gone out once. I feel like we’re shortchanging you,” Louisa chimed in, hoping she’d take a break. “Sure,” Arabella, not one to put her parents in a difficult position, agreed to. anything they proposed.
This made Serena very happy. She was looking forward to the day and hoped to impress Arabella with her piano skills..
Arabella suddenly asked, “Where’s Martha today?”
Caught off guard, Serena answered, “Martha wasn’t feeling well today.”
“Did she have a stomachache? If so, she should drink more mushroom soup.”
“Um, no need for that,” Serena replied, her previous joy replaced with guilt and unease. “She’s already taken some medicine. She’ll be fine tomorrow.”
“Alright, if there’s nothing else, I’ll go take a shower now.”
“Okay.”
In two days.
