Return of the Crowned Heiress (Felicia)
Return Of The Crowned Heiress 16

Chapter 16

Arnold had never experienced such humiliation before "Anyway, there's no way I'll agree to this marriage!"

"Oh," Matthew replied dismissively, nodding his head before adding, "Does your opinion really matter?" Arnold struggled to form a response. Matthew ruled the Lawson family, and no one could go against his wishes until he relinquished control. "Grandpa..." Arnold said weakly. "What do you see in Felicia? Apart from her looks, what qualifies her to be my fiancée?"

Matthew didn't answer. Instead, he slammed his hand down, declaring, "Whether she's suitable or not is for me to decide! This marriage proposal cannot be refused by anyone-not you, nor that young lady from the Fuller family!" With a cold snort, Matthew turned and left. Arnold's eyes twitched, a surge of frustration welling up within him with no outlet for release. He couldn't go against Matthew. However, he could certainly replace a way to make Felicia withdraw herself. the

With a cold smile, Arnold picked up the phone. "Hello, run an investigation on Felicia and send all the replaceings to her school. I want to see if she'll still have any dignity left."

After the party, Kayla locked herself in her room, refusing to eat or drink. She looked incredibly haggard.

Myra could only repeatedly assure her that she would never agree to Matthew's proposal, and if there were to be a marriage alliance, it would definitely be with Kayla, not Felicia. Hearing this, Kayla cried as she asked, "Mom, is that true? You're not lying to me, right?"

"Of course not!"

"But what if Mr. Lawson Senior disagrees?"

"Don't worry, your dad and I will negotiate with him. Besides, you and Arnold are in love. No one can separate you," Myra said, stroking her head with a smile.

Only then did Kayla manage a smile through her tears. Once Kayla had been consoled, Myra left the room.

Then, Holly entered the room with a tray, serving Kayla food while indignantly saying, "Felicia is truly shameless. How can she steal someone else's fiancé? Ugh! If such a person disappeared, this household would be much cleaner, and the Fuller family wouldn't be in such chaos!"

Kayla's eyes flickered slightly at her words. Yes, if only Felicia could just disappear.

She would then remain the only little princess of the Fuller family, and only she would become Mrs. Lawson. Arnold wouldn't be taken away from her.

However, to ensure Felicia's removal was both safe and discreet, she couldn't do it herself. She would have to let someone else handle it.

With a small smile, Kayla said to the indignant Holly, "Call Melvin and tell him I'm sick."

Melvin Chavez, who hailed from the Chavez family, was Kayla's most loyal lapdog. The previous day, after Kayla ran out crying from the party, Melvin was the first one to chase after her. She had never looked favorably on him. However, a loyal admirer had its uses-he would do anything she

asked.

With a quick phone call, Melvin hurried over to the Fuller residence.

Kayla lay in bed, her black hair disheveled, making her pale face look even more pitiful due to her illness.

Melvin was frantic, asking, "Kayla, have you seen a doctor? Have you taken your medicine? It hurts my heart to see you like this!"

Kayla feigned surprise. "Melvin, why are you here?"

"I heard you were sick." Melvin wanted to hold Kayla's hand, but he hesitated. Remembering that she fell ill because of that party, his anger flared up. "Kayla, you've been wronged!" Kayla shook her head, looking bitter. "What right do I have to feel wronged? I'm just an impostor occupying someone else's place."

"Who said that? I'll crush whoever dares to call you an impostor! You're the queen of my heart. You always have been!"

Melvin looked at her with a fervent expression. It was as if he wanted to show her his heart.

However, Kayla turned away, tears streaming down her face. "Don't comfort me. I can never get past this hurdle. As long as Felicia is around, I will always be the impostor!"

Melvin wasn't dense. He quickly replied, "Then it's simple. If Felicia makes you upset, just make her disappear! Kayla, leave this matter to me. I'll help you get your revenge!"
