Return of the Crowned Heiress novel Chapter 607

It seemed like a ridiculous soap opera.

Here Archie was, having an affair, yet he was responding to Imogen with a calm voice, carefully dispelling any of her doubts and suspicions.

How long had this been going on? How many times had it already played out?

Imogen didn't dare to think about it.

Even the slightest recollection of past details would cause everything she had found suspicious but ignored to resurface. They pieced together into a massive, terrifying web that left her suffocating.

No wonder Johanna had stopped referring to Imogen as her sister-in-law.

No wonder Johanna was always trailing Archie wherever he went.

No wonder she would often hear faint rustling sounds around her.

It turned out she had become part of their twisted act.

How laughable.

Imogen wanted to laugh out loud. To think that Archie and Imogen found their affair so thrilling that they even turned it into an exhilarating game in front of her!

Meanwhile, she had been reduced to a fool. She had been trapped in a web of lies and treating those two as her most cherished loved ones, only to be betrayed!

Wonderful. Just wonderful!

Imogen took a deep breath and suppressed her emotions. She buried everything deep within herself and pretended as if nothing had happened.

"...Of course not. I'll just rinse it with some cold water," he said. Archie glanced at his burned hand, his furrowed brows betraying his irritation and annoyance. However, his voice remained calm and composed, maintaining his perfect facade.

Johanna couldn't hold back. "Imogen, what's wrong with you? That chowder was boiling hot. Can't you be more careful? Look, it burned him!"

Imogen looked pained. "Well, what can I do? I'm just a blind woman who can't see anything... Johanna, are you mad at me?"

"I…" Johanna was about to retort when Archie stopped her. He signaled her not to cause a scene. They had important things to do today.

Johanna shut her mouth. Then, she latched onto Imogen's arm and pouted. "Oh, Imogen, how could I ever be mad at you? I was just worried you'd hurt yourself."

"I see," Imogen replied flatly, silently watching their interaction coldly.

After finishing the meal, Imogen casually instructed Johanna to clear the table.
