Return of the Crowned Heiress novel Chapter 540

At that moment, the man twisted his waist with precision, using his powerful legs to push forcefully against the rock wall. The impact of his kick left cracks on the rock's surface—a testament to the terrifying strength behind it.

Using that momentum, he flipped in mid-air, pulling Felicia along with him. He landed back on solid ground in one fluid motion.

The entire sequence of events happened in the blink of an eye, so fast it left onlookers stunned and unable to react.

Kayla stared, her wide eyes fixed on them as her expression froze over from disbelief. The grin that had been plastered on her face moments earlier now twisted into shock and despair, a grotesque mix of emotions that contorted her features horribly.

Kayla screamed at the top of her lungs, her fury boiling over. She had been so close! Just a little bit more and Felicia would've joined her. They would've perished together in this desolate crevice!

But fate intervened, letting someone descend from above to save Felicia.

All Kayla could do was blame the heavens for being unfair to her.

She tilted her head back and screamed into the faint light above, "Bitch! You wretch! You'll die a horrible death!"

This was her last moment as she had no more chances to say more.

This time, a deafening explosion erupted from directly above the crevice, sending countless massive boulders crashing down.

Kayla's eyes widened in terror.

In her pupils, the falling rocks grew closer and larger until—

The thunderous sound of collapsing rocks echoed through the canyon, sealing the vast crevice completely.

With that, all the schemes and the grudges of two lifetimes were buried under the rubble, erased in an instant.

From a distance, Felicia stood quietly, watching the mound of rocks that had become Kayla's grave. An indescribable feeling washed over her. It was neither satisfaction nor pity but a passing lament.

The moment passed quickly, and Felicia turned her gaze to the man before her.
