Return of the Crowned Heiress novel Chapter 556

Felicia was on the verge of losing control. The bronze bell in her mind rang louder, driving her toward a killing frenzy.

Her whole body trembled as she fought against it. The splitting headache felt like it would tear her apart, and she could barely hang on.

Felicia gritted her teeth as sweat poured down her face. "Get... a rope. Tie me up. I'll pay you... Hurry!"

Only then did Scarlet notice something was wrong.

Felicia was sitting by the flowerbed, her face twisting in pain. Her eyes were bloodshot, and her fists were clenched tightly as if she were on the brink of madness. It was clear this was no joke.

Scarlet immediately abandoned her playful nature. She pulled a rope from her bag and tied Felicia's arms behind her back.

Unfortunately, it was daytime, and people didn't really pass by this area. If anyone saw this, they would think Scarlet was a kidnapper.

Felicia was aware of the risk. She used the last shred of clarity and murmured, "Take me back to Khogend... To my clinic... Find... Find..."

Before she could finish, her body gave out, and she collapsed.

Scarlet caught her just in time. She took off her leather jacket and draped it over Felicia before carrying her out of the hospital.

"Oh, my poor boss, you owe me extra for this!" Scarlet muttered as she shook her head.

...

That day, Imogen gave birth to a baby boy named Caleb.

That day, Felicia disappeared from the hospital.

That day, Stephan left his sister and nephew only to discover Felicia was nowhere to be found. He searched the entire hospital before breaking into the surveillance room to check the footage, which showed her being taken away.

That day, in a shadowy corner where no one noticed, someone stood with a sinister grin.
