Return of the Crowned Heiress novel Chapter 504

Imogen slapped a hand over her mouth and shook her head. "I said I won't let Felicia marry into the family. I won't allow it..."

Johanna could barely contain her frustration.

But on second thought, her schemes hadn't been in vain since Felicia and Imogen's relationship had turned hostile. They couldn't be on good terms again, especially with Archie's death looming over them.

Now, Stephan was caught in a dilemma. Would he choose his sister or his lover? No matter which side he supported, the other would be abandoned.

Felicia was bound to be sacrificed.

When that time came, taking down Felicia and her family would be far easier.

Johanna smirked at the thought. She softened her tone to comfort Imogen, saying, "Imogen, don't cry. I didn't mean to pressure you. Believe me, no one feels your pain more than I do. But as for Stephan..."

Before Johanna could finish, a maid rushed in. "There's been an incident, Ms. Russell!"

"What incident?" Imogen's heart sank.

"It's Mr. Russell! He's gone missing. They say he's injured and his whereabouts are unknown!" the maid shouted.

"What?" The news hit Imogen hard. Her vision blurred, and she nearly fainted.

The maid hurried to support her, cursing herself for delivering the report so suddenly. If anything happened to Imogen because of this, she would have to bear the blame.

Imogen clung to the maid's sleeve desperately. "Explain! What happened?"
