Return of the Crowned Heiress novel Chapter 440

Mason froze. Then, he kicked one of his subordinates and yelled, "Stop playing dead and get off the ground!"

The man was rolling on the floor, looking like he was in a tremendous amount of pain. He lifted up a trembling finger and pointed at his chest.

Upon kneeling down to get a closer look, Mason then realized that a long, silver needle had impaled the man's chest. The needle was still shaking too. They had evidently been ambushed!

"Who did this? Show yourself!" Mason stood up and barked angrily.

Cradling a heavily-injured Dexter in her arms, Myra was also shocked by the sudden turn of events.

"Did Kayla come back? Did she manage to get help?" she wondered ecstatically.

One of Mason's men noticed a figure a small distance away. He tugged on Mason's shirt and pointed in a direction. "Look, boss. There's someone there!"

A shadowy figure gradually emerged from the very end of Skyway Street. The person had a slender build and was wearing a black jacket. The hood of the jacket covered half of their face, and they had a mask on as well. It was impossible to tell who it was.

Only their eyes could be seen, and their gaze felt oppressive.

"Is that a woman?" Mason narrowed his eyes. He instantly relaxed in the next moment, and a look of mockery spread across his face.

Did she come to throw her life away too?

He raised his hand and gave out another typical instruction. Turning toward the men who were still standing, he said, "Bring her to me now!"

Aside from the ten men who had been knocked down by the silver needles, there were still about 20 of Mason's subordinates left standing. They instantly dashed forward and surrounded the shadowy figure.

More than half of Felicia's face was hidden under her hood and behind her mask. The only thing that was exposed was her eyes. She glanced emotionlessly at Dexter and Myra. Dexter was lying unconscious on the ground while Myra was sobbing.
