Return of the Crowned Heiress (Felicia)
Chapter 123

"Surely, you haven't forgotten that Kayla is your biological sister? If you need money, go ask her. Why come looking for me?"

Upon hearing Felicia's words, even Shawn, as dim-witted as he was, realized that she was being deliberately provocative.

"You little brat! Look at how cunning you are! Are you trying to involve someone else?"

Felicia applied more pressure with her foot and mocked, "Look at you, finally aware that you're causing trouble."

Shawn cursed, "I won't fall for your tricks! Either you give me 30 million dollars, and I'll leave you alone for good or I promise you'll never have a moment of peace! Felicia, the choice is yours!"

With that, he flashed a malicious grin, thinking he had the upper hand.

He knew that even if Kayla was his sister, with Dexter and Myra protecting her, he wouldn't be able to lay a finger on her.

But Felicia was different. She had no one to protect her.

He had plenty of ways to make Felicia abide by his requests. These included harassing her, extorting her, and even slandering her.

Yet Felicia smiled sweetly, appearing unaffected by his threats. She remained composed. "Do whatever you want. I'm not the one who's in debt. A gambling debt of 30 million dollars, when compounded over time... Well, it won't be long before it reaches over a hundred million, right?"

Shawn's eyes widened. He had only mentioned needing 30 million from Felicia, but he hadn't disclosed what for. Now, he felt uneasy. "How do you know about my gambling debts?"

Was Felicia involved in this matter?

But after thinking it over, he decided it was impossible; Felicia couldn't have that kind of influence.

He tried to steady himself and was just about to threaten her again when Felicia let him go. She casually said, "Kayla has a black card that can be used without limits. If you've got what it takes, go look for her." With that, Felicia kicked Shawn while commanding, "Get lost!"

After weighing his options for a few seconds, he decided to leave. First, he had to admit that he couldn't take on Felicia in a fight. Second, that unlimited black card was too

tempting.

Rather than hitting a brick wall with Felicia, seeing what he could get from Kayla was a far better option. The delicate Kayla should be easier for him to handle.

After Shawn left, Felicia turned

around and took a few steps when she spotted Sebastian standing in the shadows of a tree. She had no idea when he arrived or how much he had heard. en Narugi

Given Sebastian's keen sense, he would undoubtedly realize that Felicia had intentionally led Shawn to Kayla... Felicia maintained her composure, showing no signs of panic or embarrassment. She walked up to him confidently. "Who was that person just now?" Sebastian asked.

"Just some trash," Felicia replied casually.

"Does he know you?" Sebastian asked with a tone of certainty, clearly wanting to dig deeper.

Felicia tilted her head with a smile. "Well, he's my brother from my adoptive family."

"What did he want from you?" wan

Although Sebastian wasn't fully informed he had heard Myra mention how that rogue family had come to them. They then spent 50 million dollars to sever ties with Kayla's biological parents,

Felicia answered honestly, "He was asking for money."

"Did he threaten you?" Sebastian's expression darkened. If he had known this earlier, he would have intervened sooner.

Now, Felicia was certain that Sebastian hadn't heard her earlier exchange.
