Return of the Crowned Heiress Chapter 659

going to make it official for me, Mrs. Russell?

As the conversation progressed, Stephan’s expression turned mischievous. He pinched Felicia’s waist and asked, “When are you g

Felicia stared at the ceiling silently counting the tassels hanging from the chandelier above.

Stephan wasn’t about to let her avoid the question. Gently turning her face toward him, he smirked playtully. “Didn’t you promise to let me marry you? Are you backing out now? Felicia, flustered by the teasing hand at her waist, blushed and struggled to breathe. She braced herself and replied, “I’m not backing out! I admit it, okay?

“That’s more like it,” Stephan drew out his

It was clear what Stephan wanted. He was worried she might escape, so he wanted the marriage certificate settled first As for the wedding, that seemed secondary in comparison. Felicia hesitated, then confessed, “Well, I don’t think I’ve reached the legal age for marriage yet, so…”

So, no marriage yet

For a moment, Felicia saw a fascinating array of emotions flash across Stephan’s face. There was disbelief, confusion, frustration, and a faint twitch at the comer of his lips. Felicia couldn’t hold it in anymore and burst out laughing, her chest heaving as tears gathered in her eyes.

Felicia tried to calm herself, but seeing Stephan’s rare look of defeat was just too funny. She couldn’t stop laughing.

After a long while, Felicia managed to stifle her laughter and attempted to offer some comforting words. But when she looked up, she found Stephan gazing at her with a sly smile. “Are you done laughing?” he asked.

Felicia was about to say she was. But before she could, something cool and smooth slipped onto her ring finger

She instinctively pulled her hand out from under the blanket and found a ring on her linger.

It was an incredibly beautiful and unique design. It was adorned with a fieryred gemstone, i resembling a blaze. At first glance, it looked almost alive, as if it might spew out flames. Felicia stared at it in awe, feeling that it looked oddly familiar but unable to recall where she had seen it before. She raised her head to look at Stephan, only to hear him lean close and murmur against her ear, “Here’s my wedding Edt”

Felicia smiled and shook her head. “Alright.”

That word was a promise. The simple response carried the weight of the world.

While Felicia’s response was calm and straightforward, Stephan reacted differently. He immediately tightened his arm around her waist.

Even through the thin layer of fabric, Felicia was started to feel Stephan’s racing heartbeat pounding against his chest.

The next moment, he rained kisses on her.
