Return of the Crowned Heiress novel Chapter 614

Felicia held the dish of peeled grapes, feeling a bit awkward under Imogen's gaze.

Then, she heard Imogen say leisurely, "Don't mind me. If necessary, I can pretend to be blind."

Her implication was clear, telling Felicia to flaunt her affection all she wanted. She could just pretend to be blind.

Felicia was caught off guard and coughed slightly, only to have a cup of warm water placed in front of her by Stephan. He never concealed his care and attention for her, no matter who was around. Even when Imogen was at odds with Felicia before, Stephan's attitude had remained the same—open and unwavering.

"Imogen, what were you two talking about regarding Archie and Johanna? What truth did you uncover?" Stephan asked.

The conversation between the two women had been vague, and he had only caught bits and pieces of information.

Imogen hesitated momentarily and chose not to reveal the full extent of the truth, especially the relationship between Archie and Johanna. Instead, she said, "Half a year ago, when the ship accident happened, Archie faked his death. I found evidence of it on his phone."

Imogen took out her phone and pulled up a photo from her album. It was a screenshot she had taken from Archie's contacts.

"He saved this number under the name 'Sir', and the call logs are frequent. I suspect he's working for this person or has made some sort of deal. Moreover…"

She paused, struggling to continue, before gritting her teeth and saying, "He's been trying to trick information out of me. He made multiple attempts to get his hands on the Russell family's seal!"

Stephan listened without much surprise.

Imogen was stunned. "You… You already knew?"

"Yeah."

"Since when?"

"Two years ago."
