Return of the Crowned Heiress Chapter 451

Chapter 451

After finishing her tasks, Myra turned toward the door. Felicia quickly ducked down.

Felicia wasn’t even sure why she felt the need to sneak around. Perhaps she didn’t want to see the couple in such a pitiful state. Or maybe there was something else weighing on her heart and bringing back memories from long ago.

In her miserable childhood, she often curled up in a comer after being beaten by her adoptive parents. She had imagined countless times what her biological parents might be like. She pictured them as a loving couple who supported each other through thick and thin.

If Felicia hadn’t been switched at birth, she would have grown up in a family full of love. And her parents were indeed in love just as Felicia had imagined. Yet they were not the parents she had envisioned.

Felicia crouched in the corner for a long time. Kerry happened to pass by and was startled. “Ms. Fuller, are you… crying?”

Crying? Felicia snapped out of her thoughts and instinctively touched her face, but there were no tears.

Kerry blinked innocently and chuckled. “Maybe I was mistaken.”

Felicia gave him a weird smile. “Playing tricks on your employer? Say goodbye to your bonus this month.”

“What? No, Ms. Fuller! I’m sorry…” Kerry followed after her and apologized relentlessly.

Felicia finally relented and sighed. “If you don’t want your bonus cut, then stay outside and make sure no one comes in.”

“Got it!” Kerry grinned brightly, her already pretty face lighting up with glee.

Felicia entered the room.

The moment Myra saw her, it was as though she had seen a ghost. Her expression was now a mix of alarm and defensiveness. “What are you doing here? Where’s the physician?”

Felicia ignored her. She stepped forward and checked Dexter’s pulse. His injuries weren’t severe, and his organs were fine. After half a month of rest, he had recovered well physically. But the head trauma he suffered, coupled with emotional distress, had left him mentally scarred.

Did something happen that night that further traumatized Dexter?

Felicia couldn’t figure it out, nor did she want to waste her energy guessing. Regardless of the cause, Dexter was her patient, and it was her responsibility to treat him to the best of her ability.

Felicia took out a row of needles that gleamed under the sunlight. But before she could start, Myra grabbed her arm and demanded, “What are you trying to do? Can’t you see how badly hurt your father is? How dare you act recklessly?”

Myra was agitated. Exhaustion over the past few weeks had drained her patience, and faced with Felicia, who was convinced she was cold and ungrateful, only fueled her anger.

“Where’s the medical master? Doesn’t the Miracle Healer work here? Get them! I only want them!” Myra shouted for help as she shoved Felicia toward the door.

Kerry immediately burst into the room. Seeing Felicia being pushed out, she said sharply,

“Mrs. Fuller, let go of her if you want your husband to recover! The medical master you’re shouting for is standing right in front of you!”

Kerry was furious. She didn’t know the full details of the Fuller family drama, but she had heard whispers among the others. The couple seeking treatment today were once the wealthiest in Khogend. And they were also Felicia’s parents!

So, Kerry had gone above and beyond for the couple before Felicia arrived. But this didn’t seem like a reunion between mother and child. It was more like a showdown between enemies!
