Return of the Crowned Heiress (Felicia)

When Felicia stumbled into the Fuller residence, she was covered in blood, limping painfully. Her face was swollen, and her arms and legs were marked with numerous cuts and scrapes. It was a shocking sight.

Dexter and Myra were stunned. Just moments before, they had been speculating whether Felicia had staged this entire incident for attention.

But now, seeing Felicia in such a condition made them realize how absurd their thoughts had been.

"Licia, are you okay? I've been worried sick about you all night." Myra pushed Kayla aside and got up from the couch, rushing toward Felicia.

She wanted to help Felicia but hesitated, afraid of causing her pain. Tears streamed down her cheeks from worry.

"Get a doctor, now!" Dexter shouted at a nearby maid.

Felicia sat on the couch, her face pale from blood loss, her lips devoid of color. Only her eyes remained clear and sharp.

"Licia, what happened last night? Who kidnapped you?" Myra asked urgently.

Dexter nodded and said, "Just tell us. I'll make sure we find out who's behind this."

Felicia ignored them, her gaze fixed intently on Kayla.

Kayla clenched her fists, maintaining an innocent facade. She said, "Felicia, I'm just glad you're safe. Wel were so worried about you last night. We were afraid something terrible had happened to you."

Since learning about Felicia's kidnapping at 10:00 pm the previous night, the Fullers had not slept. They mobilized every resource they had to secretly search for her.

Kayla wore an innocent expression, still trying to pin the blame on Felicia for staging the whole act. She asked, "But Dad and I waited all night and didn't receive any ransom calls from the kidnappers. How did you manage to escape, Felicia?" Hearing this question, Felicia's mind raced, and she quickly grasped Kayla's intent.

Kayla wondered how a defenseless young woman like Felicia could have gotten away unscathed while facing four or five strong kidnappers.

If it wasn't a setup, no one would believe it. Kayla waited eagerly for Felicia's response, a smile lingering on her lips.

Felicia smirked, not about to fall into the self-incriminating trap Kayla had set for her. Instead, she said, "I know who kidnapped me."

Myra and Dexter looked surprised and asked simultaneously, "Who?"

The Fuller family was a prominent family in Khogend, and they had enemies, both known and hidden. If they didn't get to the bottom of this, it could easily happen again.

"The person goes by the nickname 'Lance.' He's a loan shark and a thug. After I was rescued, he ran off and probably hasn't returned to Khogend yet."

Felicia continued, "I have no grievances with him. Even if there were minor conflicts, he wouldn't want my life."

After all, Felicia was the Fullers' legitimate daughter, the one they had just found and acknowledged.

There was no way Lance and his lackeys would have the audacity to confront the Fuller family. Someone must be behind this. If they followed this lead, they would surely uncover something. Dexter's expression darkened. He was usually kind and had few enemies. He had never done anything truly terrible.

But now, someone was trying to

harm his daughter, and that was intolerable.

He gently patted Felicia's head, reassuring her. "When the doctor arrives, they'll treat your wounds properly. I'll send people out to investigate immediately. I promise this won't happen again." Felicia smiled but didn't take it seriously.Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

However, Kayla's expression soured. She stood up from the couch and called out to Dexter, "Dad, shouldn't we check on Felicia's injuries first? What if they're all superficial?" She suspected this was just Felicia's ploy for sympathy

Dexter picked up his phone and issued several commands. He had plenty of money and people at his disposal, so he wouldn't need to investigate personally.

Kayla felt a sense of urgency. If this incident was traced back to Melvin, she was afraid he might let something slip, especially since she was the one behind it all.
