NovelEnglishHe always had a way of handling his business that left no trace, no loose ends.
"Get a good sleep," Arabella said, not blaming him but rather reminding him, "Don't forget about David's concert the day after
tomorrow."
"I'll pick you up for it."
"Alright."
As soon as Arabella finished speaking, a servant crunning over. "Ms. Bella, it's terrible—Serena's been attacked, and bitten by
a snake, too! The family doctor won't be here for another hour. What should we do? The master and mistress are out, and we're all
at a loss."
"Take her to the hospital." Romeo surely didn't want his girl tending to Serena's wounds, "Bella's had a long day already."
"We better hurry and get Serena to the hospital then." the servant scurried back inside.
A gleam of interest sparkled in Arabella's eyes as she looked at Romeo. "Bitten by a snake?"

Did this guy actually have someone scare Serena with a snake?
"It's not poisonous."
If it weren't for the fact that she was still tied to the Collins family, he would have used venomous ones tonight.
A smile curled on Arabella's lips. With a flicker of amusement in her expression, she said. "Then I'm heading in."
"Right, get srest," Romeo patted the young girl's head. "Don't worry about her. Even without a doctor, you're not to treat her."
She wouldn't die that quickly.
"Don't worry, | don't save just anyone."
Romeo's laughter echoed; this was his girl, alright.
Serena was still crying when they arrived at the hospital. Her hair was a mess, her white dress was soiled, and though a coat had
been draped over her shoulders, she was still shivering from the cold.
It was winter after all, and snow was falling. The wind whistled through the windows into the emergency room where Serena sat.
She looked as wretched as one could be.
Martin hurried over as soon as he heard the news and immediately spotted Serena, who had been crying her eyes out. Her face
was bruised, and her exposed skin was covered in cuts and scratches. He had only been gone for less than an hour—what on earth
had happened?
"Serena."
"It's all your fault! If you hadn't madeget out of the car, none of this would've happened." Serena wailed, breaking down. "Get
away from me! | don't want to see you—go away."
"Miss, please try to stay still," the nurse said as she disinfected Serena's wounds. "We'll need to give you a tetanus shot shortly.
Which family member can handle the payment and fetch the medication?"
A servant stepped forward, but Martin quickly said, "I'll do it."
Serena kept crying, not even glancing his way.
"Serena, just wait for me. I'll pay the bill and be right back."
"You can also just scan the QR code on the ticket," the nurse suggested.

"Alright." Martin looked at Serena briefly before following the instructions.
Serena couldn't fathom how her life had cto this. If Romeo had been here, the nurses would be bending over backward to
please her, and she wouldn't have to deal with any of this red tape. The hospital director would probably have crushing over
in the middle of the night to attend to her personally.
It was clear; Martin was useless compared to Romeo. With Romeo around, not to mention his bodyguards, Romeo himself would
have been enough to protect her and ensure she got hsafely. None of this would have happened.
After Martin paid, the nurse administered the injection and handed over sprescriptions for them to take home.
"These are oral medications. If the pain becomes too much, these can help alleviate it. And these are for external application," the
nurse explained, indicating instructions and dosages.
Martin anxiously inquired, "She has so many injuries. Are they serious? Does she need to be hospitalized? Is there any bone
damage?"
"We took her sX-rays, and there's no bone damage, but she'll be in pain for a couple of weeks. There's quite a bit of bleeding
after all."
