NovelOnlineWas Arabella really poisoning her?
The thought crossed Serena's mind, and it suddenly seemed all too plausible.
Arabella knew her way around a pharmacy and had every reason to want Serena out of the picture. It wouldn't be a stretch to
imagine her slipping something lethal into Serena's food, especially when Serena was too preoccupied to notice, maybe even
bribing someone to do her dirty work.
Within the walls of the manor, Serena had no enemies.
But it was entirely possible that Arabella had set her sinister plan in motion even before Serena had stepped foot in the estate.
And even if Arabella hadn't directly handed over the poison, she had plenty of lackeys at her disposal.
Realizing this disturbing possibility had Serena seething with anger.
How could Arabella harbor such malice, to the point of wanting her dead?

"Ms. Bella, please, have mercy and save Serena. we're out of options!" Dora pleaded, tears streaming down her face as she
implored, "Please, just this once, save her."
But watching Dora on her knees begging, Serena had a sudden revelation. Arabella's possible act of poisoning was perhaps
designed to bring Serena to her knees, to grovel before the Collins family like a dog begging for scraps of mercy.
The thought enraged her even more!
That damn Arabella, so cruel and vile to the core!
Arabella caught a glimpse of the animosity flashing in Serena's eyes. Clearly, there had been smisunderstanding, but Arabella
couldn't be bothered to clarify.
"You're barking up the wrong tree," Arabella said coolly before walking away.
Her brothers hurried after her.
Bernard and Cornelia didn't even spare Serena a second glance, and neither did Kenneth and Louisa, as they quickly made their
exit.
Even Dr. Pierce seemed eager to leave.
Heartbroken and furious, Serena felt utterly betrayed. With the weight of despair and anger upon her, blood suddenly spurted from
her lips.
She could never have imagined that her so-called family would react to her illness with such dispassion; not a single word of
concern, not even a trace of sympathy on their faces.
As her tears fell, she felt utterly devastated.
"Serena." Dora gasped in horror, frantically pressing the call button on the wall.
Martin witnessed the Collins family's cold departure, standing helplessly at the doorway with breakfast in hand, unable to plead for

He knew that Serena's past transgressions were unforgivable in the eyes of the Collins family, and they would never lift a finger to
save her.
Hearing Dora's panicked voice from the room, Martin rushed in.
The white sheets were stained with blood.
His heart broke for her.
"Please accept my apologies, | had no idea she was admitted to our hospital." Dr. Pierce expressed his regret. Had he known
Serena was there, he would never have brought the Collins family to this floor.
"Dr. Pierce, you have a lot on your plate, and it's normal for your staff not to report every little detail. It's fine that you weren't
aware of her being here; just treat her like any other patient in the hospital. You needn't feel troubled over the Collins family's
personal affairs." Louisa spoke with understanding.
"Thank you, Mrs. Collins, for your consideration." Dr. Pierce said gratefully, then continued to lead them on the hospital tour.
