Return of the Crowned Heiress Chapter 558

Kerry quickly left to complete the task

What Felicia liked about Kerry was his obedience and efficiency. Despite being young, he was sharp, didn’t ask unnecessary questions, and followed

enders without hesitation.

Once Kerry brought the items, Felicia dismissed him.

Now, only Felicia and Scarlet were left in the room.

Felicia opened the medical kit, laid out her acupsmeture needles, and disinfected the knife. After preparing everything, she rolled up her sleeves and made

her first incision.

Blood dripped down

Scarlet sat on a nearby chair, observing with surprise but refraining from Interrupting

It wasn’t until Felicia made three cuts that Scarlet finally asked, “Boss, what exactly are you doing

Felicia didn’t lift her head. “Looking for a venomous creature.”

“Venemous creature?” Scarlet’s eyes widened in shock. It was rare to

“Probably. I’m still trying to confirm.” Felicia made another cut on her arm, but there was still no sign of anything unusual.

When she had previously extracted the twin venomous creatures from Lewis, the same bloodletting method had forced the creatures to surface. However, there was no reaction even after four cuts.

This left two possibilities. Either there was no venomous creature, or it had been planted in her so long ago that it had become undetectable.

She hoped it wasn’t the latter.

If she didn’t resolve this soon, she would eventually

Felicia’s grip tightened around the knife, but her trembling hand failed to hold it steady. Soon, the blade fell to the ground.

Felicia bent down to retrieve it, but Scarlet was faster and picked it up before placing it aside

Scarlet rummaged through the medical kit and retrieved some gauze and medication. She started dressing Felicia’s wounds. While wrapping the bandages, she said, “Boss, I understand why you hired me. You have a venomous creature within you and fear losing control, so you brought me on board to lock you our or restrain you when push comes to shove, right?

Felicia didn’t deny it. She hadn’t tried to hide her actions from Scarlet. Even if Scarlet hadn’t asked, Felicia had planned to explain eventually.

After dressing the wounds and securing the final knot, Scarlet looked at Felicia and laughed. “Boss, why did you choose me for this? You give me the feeling that you trust me ”

“It’s not just a feeling I do trust you. Felicia met Scarlet’s gaze. She smirked and countered, “Why do you like calling me boss? You give me the feeling that you knew me

Scarlet chuckled, her hand instinctively reaching out to pinch Felicia’s cheek, though she stopped halfway, “I have a younger sister about your age. I’m reminded of her whenever I see you.”

So, Felicia reminded Scarlet of her sister.

Felicia didn’t press further. Sometimes, unspoken things were easy to guess

She picked up her phone and quirked a brow at Scarlet

Scarlet looked puzzled.

Felicia lammed. “Let me pay you back for your expenses.”

The tople shift was clumsy, but… Scarlet liked it!

She immediately provided her account details with a bright smile. The helicopter fee costs 600 thousand dollars. And another 300 thousand dollars for my medical bills. You hit my precious face. That doesn’t sound like much, right?”

Felicia opened her bank account on her phone, but it suddenly froze and shut off

Felicia sighed. “It’s out of battery. Seems like you’ll have to wait.”

Scarlet watched as Felicia walked past her. She could see how Felicia was trying hard to fight back a grin. Scarlet knew she was doing this on purpose!
