Return of the Crowned Heiress Chapter 547
Return of the Crowned Heiress
No one saw Stephanâs actions clearly, and no one expected that Stephan would actually go through with it!
By the time everyone came to their senses, a flash of silver light streaked through the air. Felicia, standing closest to him, lunged forward to stop him.
But even so, Stephanâs normally calm and deep eyes were now bloody red. His fair face was splattered with drops of blood, making him appear eerle and demonic like a vengeful demon
Imogen, unable to see, clearly heard the gasps of those around her and the rushing footsteps the Russell familyâs men
âMr.
Russell!â
âMr. Russell!TM
âWhereâs the doctor? Hurry, come quickly!â
The air was filled with chaos.
Imogen froze, a sense of dread washing over her. Trembling, she grabbed Johannaâs hand and asked in a shaky voice, âWhat happened?
Tell me!â
Johanna, pale with fear, swallowed hard before replying, â1âImogen, Stephan. He⦠He used a knife⦠to cut his own eyes. Thereâs so much blood.
âWhat?â Imogen was dumbstruck
How had things escalated to this? She had only wanted to vent her frustrations and force Stephan to choose between her as his sister
alicia, an outsider.
That was all!
Even if her words had been harsh, he couldnât and shouldnât have resorted to such drastic measures to force her hand.
Imogen began to tremble all over, consumed by pain, anger, and regret. The knife pressed against her own neck clattered to the ground. Blindly, she stumbled toward Stephanâs direction, but she tripped and nearly fell. Fortunately, Stanley was quick to catch her.
She grabbed Stanleyâs arm tightly and asked, âHow is he? How is Stephan?â
Stanley glanced back at the scene and replied, âMs. Russell, Mr. Russell took his eyes out for your sake.â
Imogen broke down completely, screaming at Stephan, âYou fool! What are you doing? What are you trying to prove? Are you trying to drive me to my death?â
Stephan couldnât hear her anymore.
His eyes were closed as he slipped into unconsciousness. Yet beneath his long, dark lashes, blood continued to flow.
The campâs accompanying doctors arrived, but they specialized in attending to Imogenâs needs and lacked expertise in this area. Seeing Stephanâs bleeding eyes, they were too frightened to act.
This⦠looked like permanent blindness!
Not all of the Russell familyâs men knew of Feliciaâs medical skills, and even those who had heard rumors werenât inclined to trust her
abilities right away.
Felicia didnât care about their doubts. She shouted at those nearby, âBring waterâclean water, now!â
Andy, quick on his feet, sprinted to the supply area in the camp. To his dismay, all the packaged and bottled purified water had been used up!
Cursing under his breath, Andy grabbed several water canteens. âMaâam, these contain disinfected, boiled spring water. I donât know If itâll workâ¦â
It was not like they had any other choice.
Felicia took the canteens, opened them, and poured the water over Stephanâs eyes and face without hesitation.
At that moment, Feliciaâs expression was so icy and intense that even Stanley, who was usually chatty, didnât dare interrupt her.
Andy was stunned. He was worried about Stephanâs eyes but also didnât dare to stop Feliciaâs actions. He scratched his head in
frustration.
Gradually, they began to understand what Felicia was doing. She was flushing out Stephanâs eyes!
Stephan had genuinely tried to destroy his own vision. While Felicia had managed to block most of the force, the knife had been contaminated with sap from the poisonous plants in the rainforest!
That was why Stephan had fallen unconscious. Even the bleeding from his eyes was a result of the poison.
