Imogen was sincere in her apology. There were no pretense or reluctance.
Felicia was a little surprised.
Although their past conflicts were indeed unpleasant, they had never caused Felicia any real harm. Given Imogen's genuine attitude, Felicia naturally wouldn't hold a grudge.
What intrigued Felicia more was how Imogen suddenly came to her senses. Could it be that she realized she had been betrayed?
After some thought, Felicia asked, "Ms. Russell, you… must have seen it by now, right? About Archie and Johanna."
Imogen forced a smile, feeling even more sorrowful inside.
Felicia had only been in the Russell residence for two days and hadn't even interacted much with Archie or Johanna, yet she had seen through their dirty little secrets so easily. And she, the one most involved, had only just woken up to the truth.
Imogen nodded and replied, "Yes, I saw it with my own eyes. Felicia, thank you. If it weren't for your medicine, I might still be kept in the dark."
"You're welcome," Felicia replied.
She thought to herself, "I was paid full price for the treatment, after all. Consider this extra information a bonus."
Felicia said, "I actually only found out last night. I was planning to get you to take the medicine today so that you could see the truth for yourself. But it seems you've already figured it out. In a way, it's better this way. Wounds only heal when the discharge from the infection is drained. So, I should actually congratulate you."
Felicia blinked playfully, her voice gentle and melodic. Her words struck a chord in Imogen's heart.
"Thank you." Imogen smiled radiantly.
