Return of the Crowned Heiress novel Chapter 487

The last thing Felicia remembered before falling asleep was lying in bed. But when she opened her eyes, she found herself standing in the living room downstairs, with no recollection of how she got there.

Taking deep breaths, she forced herself to calm down.

Just then, Stanley returned with a group of his men after patrolling the villa's perimeter. Seeing Felicia standing motionless like a scarecrow in the living room with a grim expression on her face, he couldn't help but ask, "Ma'am, what's wrong?"

Felicia asked, "You just came back from patrol? Did you see anyone nearby or someone carrying something like a bell?"

"No, not at all," Stanley replied honestly, shaking his head.

It was the answer she expected to hear.

Just last night, she heard the same bell ringing back at the Russell residence in Seldvale. It startled her awake, but nothing happened.

If someone was controlling this, they couldn't have stayed by her side all the time without her noticing.

The Russell family's security was extremely tight, making it impossible for outsiders to sneak in. And even if someone had infiltrated, the incessant ringing of a bell would've alerted others.

Considering this, Felicia gathered all the busy maids in the villa and asked, "Did any of you hear the sound of a bell earlier?"

The maids looked at each other in confusion before ultimately shaking their heads. No one had heard anything.

Felicia began to wonder if her anxiety and stress had pushed her to a mental breaking point. Honestly, if she told anyone about this, they'd think she was crazy.

"It's fine. You can all go back to your work," she said.

Felicia returned to her room. She found herself unable to fall asleep again after the ordeal. Lying on her bed, she stared blankly at the ceiling.

In her past life, she had already been sent to prison at this point in time. Those dark, hopeless four years filled her with heartbreak and despair.
