Return of the Crowned Heiress Chapter 602

“Hmph!” Johama pouted. “Every day, I have to watch you play the loving husband with that old hag. You’re such a sweet little family of three. It’s killing me

inside

“Patience. Just a little longer. Stephan has already been poisoned. I’ve secretly looked into it. Even with the most advanced equipment, he doesn’t have much time left” Archie’s eyes gleamed. “The Russell family will be ours soon!”

still sulking, Johanna remained silent.

Archie pulled her closer, his gaze filled with genuine adoration “Be good. I know it’s been hard on you, but this is the crucial moment. When Stephan falls, the only one lett will be Imogen. She relies on me entirely. We have to endure for just a little longer. We can’t risk nuining everything now.

“As soon as we get what we need from her, we’ll have achieved our goal. After that, we’ll never have to endure anything again.”

Following Archie’s words, Johanna let her imagination run wild. She was picturing the two of them standing triumphantly at the pinnacle of power.

Her expression softened,

“Isn’t it obvious? She’ll disappear quietly without anyone knowing. That way, nothing will stand in our way anymore,” Archie answered without hesitation. Johanna’s expression darkened with satisfaction as she sneered, “Hmph, will you really be willing to? She just gave you a child, after all!” Archie’s expression turned to one of disgust. His dislike for Imogen extended to the child, making it unbearable for him to even think about him. During the day, be had to force himself to act as a loving husband and father and mask his resistance. He only dropped the act around Johnna. “Don’t be silly. Don’t you know how much I love you? Archie poked Johanna’s forehead and said huskily, “The only children I care about are ours. Johanna’s cheeks flushed, and any further words were drowned out in the heat of the moment.

Lost in their intimacy, neither of them noticed the shadows lurking outside the window. Two figures clung to the wall, hidden in the darkness, listening intently to every word.

It was Felicia and Scarlet.

Felicia was stunned by what she heard while Scarlet seemed unfazed as if she expected this. Having eavesdropped for this long, it was obvious that lingering any further would cross a line.

Besides, the position they were in meant they could slip or make a noise at any moment, alerting the pair inside.

Felicia signaled to Scarlet that it was time to go.

Scarlet released her grip on the wall and leaped, landing on the ground from the third floor with ease.

Felicia glanced down at the drop, realizing it was too far for her to land. She decided against following Scarlet’s approach and opted for a different method. She leaped toward the second–floor railing Instead. Using the wall as a springboard, she pushed off, flipping again to dissipate most of the impact. She landed softly on the ground. The series of maneuvers happened in the blink of an eye.

From Scarlet’s perspective on the ground, Felicia’s movements were mesmerizing. Her slender frame glided through the air with a blend of agility and strength. She looked graceful, powerful, and breathtaldingly beautiful

Scarlet admired her for a moment before nudging Felicia’s arm. “Now that we’ve confirmed what those two scumbags are up to, what’s your plan? If you ask me, just telling Imogen directly won’t work. She probably won’t believe us.

Women in love are blind. Even if they notice something’s off, they’ll find a way to convince themselves otherwise,” Scarlet added.

She hummed. “Here’s an idea. Let’s gather more evidence. Videos, audio recordings, or pictures… We can present them to Imogen That way, she’ll have no choice but to believe us, right?”

Felicia shook her head. “No need to go to such lengths, some things have to be seen with one’s own eyes to truly sink in.”
