Return of the Crowned Heiress novel Chapter 694

No matter what the reason, that stab was far too vicious. It was just a hair's breadth away from taking Imogen's life.

If things had gone even slightly worse and Imogen hadn't survived the surgery… Stephan shivered, not daring to let his mind go further down that thought.

He glanced down at his phone, the screen lighting up with a newly received message. After a quick glance, his tightly wound nerves relaxed slightly. He slid the phone back into his pocket.

Meanwhile, a cab slowly came to a halt outside the hospital. A slender figure handed over a couple of bills before stepping out of the car.

The young woman's head was slightly bowed, the brim of her oversized hat casting a shadow over most of her face, revealing only a delicate chin. Keeping a low profile, she walked straight into the hospital.

Her eyes were gazing ahead, steady and purposeful as she moved like she knew the place well. When she passed by a doctor's office, she casually grabbed a white lab coat and then removed her hat before slipping on a mask.

It was Felicia.

The hospital was bustling with people. Along the way, a patient stopped her to ask for directions.

Felicia had a sharp memory. She would remember anything she paid attention to, even if it had just been for a moment. She recalled the hospital map she had glanced at when entering and pointed the way without hesitation.

"That way. Turn right, and there's an elevator that'll take you up."

"Thank you," the patient said gratefully.

"No problem," Felicia replied, slipping her hands into the pockets of her white coat as she continued walking.

As she expected, there were the Russell family's guards stationed at the ICU entrance. Other than hospital staff, no one could get close.
