Chapter 799 Cornelia clasped Arabella's soft hand, seeming somewhat remorseful.

Arabella hadn't anticipated that her grandmother had been so vigilant in her youth, even resorting to private investigations for a while. Suddenly, she saw her grandmother in a new light.

She offered an elegant smile, soothingly saying, "Grandma, you need not feel guilty. I've been doing quite well all these years." Cornelia chuckled at her words, "Sweet child, you're even comforting me now." Could she have been doing as well as being with the Collins family? Word was that she was taken in by the Murphy family, where she faced many hardships.

"I've met many like-minded people and done a lot of things | wanted to do." It was much better than being a spoiled heiress.

"Besides, I'm back now, aren't I?" Cornelia looked at Arabella before her. Her features were picturesque, her demeanor elegant, and she was surprisingly mature, understanding, and gracious.

Before seeing her, Cornelia had imagined a timid cautious girl who would feel uncomfortable entering the ward, speaking in a soft voice, and possibly even shedding a few tears out of grievance.

But the girl before her, graceful yet spirited, reminded her of a plum blossom in the snow or a willow in the wind, making her feel extremely at ease.

"Thank God you're back, giving us a chance to make up for the past." Cornelia patted her hand again, "When | am discharged from the hospital, | will prepare a gift for you." Arabella laughed, "The best gift for me would be the good health of you." Cornelia was delighted. She didn't expect Arabella to be so well-behaved and understanding.

She had heard that the Murphys were conscienceless, but they had raised this child well.

At this moment, Cornelia's gaze fell on Serena, "Serena." "Grandma." Serena, who was standing in the corner, didn't draw attention to herself but waited until Cornelia noticed her. She seemed as gentle and obedient as always.

“Come over here." Serena sat down beside Cornelia, her eyes filled with joy, "I'm so happy to see you awake." Cornelia had heard that the family had finally decided to keep Serena and treat her as Arabella's sister, "The family can afford to feed you. Whatever your living conditions were before, they will remain the same." In the past eighteen years, Cornelia had come to see her as a genuine granddaughter, loving her deeply.

Though they were not related by blood, the bond they had was stronger than any blood tie.

The Collins family was influential and wealthy, so they could definitely accommodate one more girl.

Cornelia patted Serena's hand, "I heard from the nurse that you often came over while your grandfather and | were unconscious.

Good girl, you are very thoughtful." Cornelia held Serena's hand in one hand and Arabella's in the other. She turned to Louisa, "Now that we have another girl in the house, it feels even more lively." Then Cornelia began to cough.

Seeing her cough, Arabella picked up the water jug beside her and poured a glass of water, intending to hand it over.
