Return of the Crowned Heiress (Felicia)
Return Of The Crowned Heiress 76

Chapter 76

The other maids went about their tasks in silence, not daring to utter a word or show any sympathy.

As maids, they knew that not managing their words and overstepping boundaries would inevitably lead to

dismissal.

Holly was indignant. She threw her broom and stormed off to replace Kayla, hoping to cry and plead for

support

Kayla hadn't expected the indifferent Sebastian to stand up for Felicia. She had always had mixed feelings about him.

She loved him, but there were times when she feared him. Every time she tried to approach him and win his favor, his lukewarm attitude dampened her enthusiasm and left her feeling disheartened Could it be that Felicia was treated differently simply because she was his biological sister?

Kayla bit her lip and felt a sense of crisis she had tried to suppress. Felicia was the real heiress of the Fullers and had a legitimate claim in the house.

As long as she bore the Fuller family's blood, she would naturally enjoy all the privileges that came with it, even if she did nothing

But Kayla's situation was different. If she didn't fight for her place, Felicia would eventually trample her.

Kayla's eyes hardened as she suppressed her anger. She held Holly's hands and gently said, "Holly, I know you're doing this for me, but there's nothing I can do now that Sebastian has spoken. "I'm sure y

you understand that I'm in a rather awkward position. Say, I'll replace a way to bring you back after some time. Is that alright?"

Holly had no choice but to nod reluctantly.

Kayla took out a pair of earrings from her jewelry box with a smile and handed them to Holly.

These were the latest summer designs and were not yet available on the market. They were crafted by a famous designer and encrusted with sapphire stones at a starting value of six figures. Holly's breathing quickened as she stared at the earrings in surprise and delight. Her cheeks flushed with excitement. "Ms. Kayla, are these for me? Isn't this too valuable?"

"Of course they are! They look beautiful on you. Plus, we're friends, aren't we? No amount of money can. compare to our friendship." Kayla beamed.

"Ms. Kayla..." Holly's eyes welled up with tears. Her previous grievances were completely forgotten. She now felt only regret for not having done enough for Kayla. Kayla pushed Holly toward the mirror so the latter could admire herself.

She said, "Since you'll be leaving soon, could you do me one last favor before you go? You're my only friend, and there'll be no one left to help me once you're gone."

"Ms. Kayla, just say the word! I'd walk through fire for you!" Holly nodded and was ready to do anything for Kayla.

This was exactly what Kayla had hoped for. A subtle smile curved at her lips before she leaned in to whisper something in Holly's ear.

I'll get it done. Chapter 76

Holly's earlier frustration had vanished as she left Kayla's room. She hummed a tone as she walked, and her steps were light and full of cheer-a stark contrast to the tearful mess she'd been moments earlier. The other maids, including Nora, were taken aback. Nora suspiciously pulled Holly aside and asked, "What were you talking about with Ms. Kayla?"

"Nothing much. She just comforted me for a bit," Holly lled without showing any signs of guilt.

But Nora wasn't easily fooled. "Holly, I'm giving you this advice because you're my niece. Don't get involved in the family's affairs.

"Find a decent job and do it well. The Fuller residence isn't the right place for you with your personality, and you'll only end up being used as a pawn." "Yeah, I get it. You're so naggy, Aunt Nora. I'm going to pack my stuff and leave. Happy now?" Holly waved dismissively.

Only then did Nora let her go.

Holly pretended to leave. But when no one was watching, she slipped back to the second floor and sneaked into Felicia's room.
