Return of the Crowned Heiress novel Chapter 108

Kayla's face was pale.

Last night, she had seen Arnold stirred by her advances. If everything had gone as planned, she would have kept him by her side, and tomorrow's engagement banquet would have made Felicia the laughingstock.

But even at that moment, he had still forced her away.

Of course, Kayla wasn't about to let him go, but after a brief silence, he said he was sorry before knocking her out cold.

Kayla was fuming. She grabbed a nearby pillow and threw it across the room in frustration.

It was the day of Arnold and Felicia's engagement banquet.

The banquet was scheduled for 5:00 pm, and it was already 3:00 pm.

That meant there were less than two hours left before the banquet began. She would never get another chance if she didn't find a way to stop it now.

Kayla's eyes darkened, and her once sweet and innocent face was now filled with malice.

Her gaze then fell upon a fruit knife on the table.

...

Felicia was busy that weekend, having treated five patients in two days, all with complex conditions that the medical center struggled to resolve.

Since the troubles with Noah's family and the subsequent death of Roberta, Clive had closed himself off, still reeling from the events. He was angry with Noah's family and began imposing stricter control over the Walsh family.

At the same time, he felt guilty about Roberta's death.

As Clive aged, he gradually began to delegate responsibilities to Felicia, allowing her to take over the medical center.

Felicia, the young heiress, needed to prove herself. Her medical knowledge was unparalleled, unheard of before. She could solve even the most complicated medical conditions with just one move.

With each case she handled, even her peers at the medical center, who had once been skeptical of her medical knowledge, were gradually convinced of her abilities.
