Return of the Crowned Heiress
Felicia said, âIâll cover their payment.â
Wrightâ
Before the plane landed, the employment notice had already been sent out.
With a considerable sum of money on the table, plenty of people were eager to take on the task. Ultimately, six individuals were chosen.
Among them were two familiar faces Felicia had met before they were part of the team of nine mercenaries who had completed a mission alongside Scarlet during Feliciaâs previous fiveâbillionâdollar bounty offer.
One was a small, thin individual codenamed Monkey, and the other, who wielded a spiked club, was codenamed Big Guy.
Besides them, the other four were also seasoned veterans.
All of them were mercenaries, and Scarlet was wellâacquainted with them. âDonât worry, boss. These people each have their own specialties. Theyâre pros as covert investigations and will get you results in no time.â
âAlright.â Felicia closed her eyes and leaned back slightly.
Meanwhile, at the Russell residence in Seldvale, Imogen had a nagging feeling of unease as her right eye kept twitching from the moment she woke up Rubbing the corner of her eye, she couldnât shake the sense that something ominous was about to happen.
After calling another maid in, she asked about Stephanâs condition, as per her routine.
The maid replied, âMr. Russell hasnât woken up yet, but the doctor says his condition is stable. The toxins are gradually dissipating. Askle from his blindness, his body is recovering well
âs good.â Imogen let out a sigh of relief and instructed the maid to bring her child over.
âThatâs
Caleb Russell was wellâbehaved. After finishing his milk, he neither cried nor fussed. He just occasionally let out a few gurgles and blew some bubbles. His body exuded a milky scent.
Imogen held him in her arms and kissed him gently. âCalebâ¦â
The little one giggled, waving his tiny hands and feet.
The maid beside her smiled as well. âBabies sure grow quickly! I still remember how wrinkled he looked when he was just born. Now, his features are so developed, making him so handsome and adorable!
Imogen stroked the back of her babyâs head. How she wished she could see for herself what her child looked like. Did he resemble her more or his father? Just then, a maid burst into her room, shouting in excitement and nearly incoherent with her words, âMs. Russell! Thereâs news! Big news!â
Imogen frowned,
The maid immediately clamped her mouth shut but couldnât hide the excitement in her eyes. Lowering her voice, she said, âMs. Russell, Mr. Rosario is back! He has returned alive!â
Imogenâs mind was blown. Her hands trembled as she held her child. Caleb seemed startled and let out a wail
Ignoring his cries, Imogen pressed, âWhat did you say? Whoâs back? Say that again!â
Was it who she thought it was? Could it really be him?
The maid nodded furiously. âMs. Russell, you heard it right! Heâs back! Itâs Mr. Hosario! Mr. Archie Rosario! Heâs alive and just arrived at the villa. Heâs probably on his way upstairs now!â
âReally?â
I of joy that came from regaining something once lost. A hope that was long
Imogen was overwhelmed by the news. She was filled with joy, the kind of joy t extinguished suddenly reignited inside her.
Her countless nights of prayers had finally been answered!
Tears streamed down her face as she handed the crying baby to the maid. Ignoring her postpartum weakness, she forced herself out of bed. Not even bothering to put oni shoes, she rushed outside,
âWhereâs Archie? I want to see hlin!â
