Return of the Crowned Heiress Chapter 376
Return of the Crowned Heiress
Felicia gave a soft âmmâ and said nothing more.
The four subordinates of the Glovers family exchanged looks, each wanting to say something but hesitating.
They wanted to offer some comfort but didnât know where to start. They wanted to mention how they had done their best these past few days, even searching the rooftops of nearby buildings.
But none of these words would help now.
What was done was done. Their failure to fulfill their protective duty was a fact; saying anything more would only add to the frustration
The four of them left one by one.
Felicia was left alone in the rental apartment. The silence was oppressive, the place empty.
She sat on the couch for a long while, then opened her laptop. With swift movements, she hacked into an underground trading site. After browsing for a while, she finally found a leaderboard.
The people on the leaderboard were all notorious hitmen, and those at the top of the list commanded higher fees.
Feliciaâs gaze locked onto the third person on the list.
The leaderboard didnât display photos, only codenames.
This personâs codename was âBaldyâ.
He was the only hitman in the top ten to become famous with a rifle, and his fee was astronomicalâone appearance would cost a staggering 150 million!
He had the highest profile and was a force to be reckoned with!
Felicia momentarily stared at the impressive record, then issued a global bounty.
It was a five billion bounty. The task was worded, âCapture Baldy. Nothing matters as long as heâs breathing!â
The five billion reward was unprecedented!
Once the announcement went out, the entirety of the underground world was thrown into chaos. Countless people started sharpening their knives, showing off their skills, and using every means to track down Baldy.
Felicia even set a time limit. They had 24 hours to bring him to her.
Chuck
After issuing the bounty, she shut her laptop and waited silently for news.
With such a huge reward, brave souls would be willing to take on the task. She was confident that Baldy would be caught within 24 hours.
She wasnât 100% sure that the sniper who had shot at her and ultimately killed Carmen was Baldy, but it didnât matter.
As long as they brought him to her, she could recognize if he was the killer based on the shape
she saw.
If it was him, great; if not, it didnât matterâshe could always issue a second or third bounty!
No matter where the hitman was hiding, even if it were the end of the earth, he wouldnât be able to escape!
Felicia suppressed the surge of anger in her chest, her eyes cold and filled with resolve.
Just then, her phone rang.
She picked it up immediately, but it wasnât the message she had been waiting forâit was a call from Union Clinic.
âWhat is it?â
âMs. Fuller, someone has come seeking treatment. They want you to help with an eye condition. They said you can set the fee however you want!â
The seasoned physician paused, then added, âYou can charge whatever you want!â
That person was trying to throw money at her to get treatment.
Normally, Felicia might have agreed to see the patient, but she wasnât in the mood right now. âTell them to leave.â She hung up without hesitation.
At Union Clinic, the seasoned physician, left with no choice, declined the patient tactfully.
âSorry, miss, my mentor is very busy these days and doesnât have time for consultations. You could consult someone else or return in a few days.
The person seeking treatment was Johanna.
She didnât have any eye problems. She had specifically inquired about Union Clinic, but not just to seek treatment for Imogen. Her real reason for coming was to see Felicia.
