Return of the Crowned Heiress novel Chapter 322

Sebastian still couldn't forgive Felicia's ruthlessness and patience. Her ability to quietly dismantle the family without breaking a sweat felt cold and calculating, far from the sibling he thought he knew. His sister wasn't supposed to be someone with such a deeply ingrained mind for strategy.

It made her... frightening.

Mike, however, found it all amusing. The mess within the Fuller family was well-known in Khogend, and he was privy to plenty of the details. The irony wasn't lost on him.

"I've heard of murderers paying for their crimes, but I've never heard of someone being resented by their own family for exposing the truth about a killer."

Mike smirked, his tone dripping with disdain. "You say she's nothing like a Fuller. Honestly? Thank God for that."

He didn't bother sticking around to see Sebastian's reaction. He tossed the words over his shoulder as he strode away.

He'd always thought his family was the epitome of dysfunction, with each member uniquely stubborn. But the Fuller family seemed just as bad.

Mike made one last stop at Union Clinic.

According to the senior physicians there, Felicia hadn't shown up in four or five days.

With no trace of her, Mike was at a loss. He didn't know how he'd explain this to Stephan. As he stood deliberating his next move, his phone rang again. It was Stephan.

Mike answered hesitantly, "No luck. I've checked everywhere she might be, but there's no sign of her."

Stephan's reply was curt. "Understood."

The line went dead.

Mike let out a long sigh. He knew what was coming—Stephan would mobilize his own people. If Felicia was truly missing, the fallout would be massive.

Turning his car around, Mike prepared to head home. As he drove past Union Clinic and its rival, Harmony Medical Center, something caught his eye. He slammed on the brakes.

When he arrived earlier, he hadn't noticed the charred remains of Harmony Medical Center's signboard. Now, in the fading light, the damage was obvious. The building bore clear burn marks, and the interior looked half-destroyed.

What the hell happened here?
