Return of the Crowned Heiress Chapter 663
Return of the Crowned Heiress
Scarlet raised an eyebrow with a shy grin and said lazily, âCanât seem to get a momentâs peace, huh? Hoss, If this car p dinged up, I donât have to pay for it, right?
Earlier, Stanley had casually mentioned that the car they were driving was specially modifiedâbulletproof glass, explosionâproof tires, and reinforced bumpers and doors. It was basically a topâber heavyâduty vehicle.
In most situations, they could just sit in the car or forcefully charge through any blockades
Scarlet was clearly hinting at charging straight through. The car was expensive, but a few scratches were inevitable in such a situation.
Felicia glanced outside, het eves twitching when she spotted a particular license plate. She quickly stopped Scarlet from ramming through. âWait. Donât
ât move. Itâs someone we
âIt wouldnât be.â Scarlet seemed to have an idea, but before she could finish, one of the surrounding cars opened its door. A tall, elegant figure stepped out and began walking toward them.
As expected, it was Maurice.
The man was like a haunting ghostâimpossible to shake
Their carâs engine growled like a predator ready to pounce with just a slight tap on the gas, Maurice would be roadkill
Scarlet, feeling mischievous, shifted into neutral and rewed the engine loudly. The roaring sound was aggressive, almost like a warning to back off.
However, Maurice didnât flinch at all and continued walking toward them until he stopped right beside the passenger window where Felicia sat Through the bulletproof glass, Felicia and Maurice locked eyes in silence.
After a long moment, Felicia sighed in resignation and rolled down the window. âWhat do you need, Mr. Glovers?
Maurice extended his hand with his palm up, making a clear gesture of asking for something.
âWhatâs this? A debt collection? Felicia wondered.
Puzzled, she asked, âWhat do you want? Do I owe you money now?!
Maurice chuckled, his sound low and magnetic âIâm here to ask for something.â
âWhat is it? Felicia asked
Hedidnât respond night away. For a brief moment, Felicia thought she saw a trace of hesitation on his face. Before she could fully process it, Maurice gently patted the back of her hand and finallysad, âThat hemostatic medicine of yours. It works well. Can I have a bottle?â
Was that ir?
Felicia stared at him suspiciously, trying to determine if he was being serious. But no matter how hard she looked, she couldnât read anything from his expression.
Frowning, she rummaged through her pockets but realized she hadnât brought her customâmade Panax pseudoâginthera with her. She had only planned on meeting Jennifer and hadnât thought to bring it along
âI donât have any with me. If you need it, Iâll send you two bottles when I get back to Khogend tomorrow,â she said.
Surprisingly, Maunce agreed without a fuss, âAlrightâ
He withdrew his hand and took a step back. The surrounding cars slowly moved aside, opening a path for them. Telkia was speechless.
So, he went to all this trouble to block her just to ask for a bottle of medicine?
She held back her frustration, her confusion building as she glanced at Maurice. âAre you injured?
Maurice paused, then let out a laugh. âI were, would you feel sorry for me
Felicia proceeded to roll the window back up and Instructed Scarlet, âDrive.â
