Chapter 369 She was just curious. Over the past eighteen years, she never once heard Martha mention her family back home, and Martha never seemed to plan on going back for the holidays.

“Our village was full of kin,” Martha shared, “and we suffered heavy losses because of the flood that year.” Serena nodded, “If | ever make it big, | won't forget you.” “Thanks, Serena!” Martha showered her with words of gratitude.

Arabella worked until half past eleven in the evening. After sorting out the medication, she quickly headed home.

As soon as she entered, she could feel the hostile gaze from upstairs, as if someone wanted to tear her apart.

She looked up and saw a silhouette hiding behind the window, spying on her.

The window belonged to Serena’s room.

Perhaps Serena didn’t realize that the light was casting a long shadow of hers on the curtain.

Arabella shrugged it off and was about to enter the living room when she heard her parents‘ conversation.

“Where's Bella? Is she in danger? Should we call and check on her?” Kenneth Collins's voice echoed through the room. “It's late, and | can’t help but worry about her being out alone.” 1 “It's not midnight yet. Don’t rush her and put pressure on her,” Louisa yawned sleepily. “Let's wait a little longer. Bella has never been later than midnight, no matter how late she works.” “Really?” Kenneth yawned, “Okay, I'll wait a bit more.” Hearing this, Arabella felt a warmth in her heart. She changed into her slippers and walked in, “Mom, Dad, I'm home.” Kenneth and Louisa immediately perked up and went to greet her.

“Bella, you're finally back. Where have you been?” Kenneth was about to ask more when he was stopped by Louisa.

“Are you interrogating her? Why do you need to know everything? She’s grown up. She can make her own decisions.” “Right right. I'm just worrying too much,” Kenneth admitted.

Arabella laughed, “I went to see the doctor earlier. She’s leaving the country tonight to treat patients elsewhere. She gavethese medicines before she left and assuredthey would work.” Louisa nodded in understanding, “Of course, she’s a renowned doctor. Many people would ask for her help. It's not possible for her to drop everything and cto see your grandparents.” “Exactly. Bella knows smedical stuff too. She explained the situation to the doctor, and the doctor prescribed it accordingly. | trust it will work out,” Kenneth didn’t want to put more pressure on Bella.

“She gavethese medications for the first three days. There are six bottles, one for the morning and one for the evening. Just mix it with warm water,” Arabella/ handed over a small bag. “She will mail the rest of the medicines to me. Don’t worry about running out.” “Good job, Bella,” Louisa quickly said. “I've prepared slate—night snacks for you. Go eat something first. Oh, did you have enough money for the fee? Do we need to add more?” “No need. She didn’t charge much,” Arabella smiled. “I'm going to shower first, and then I'll cdown to eat. You guys rest first.” “Sure, just remember to eat!”
