had been treated, so the
As soon as the helicopter landed steadily, Felicia had already put her shoes back on. The blisters on her teeth pain was much less severe and didn’t hinder her from walking.
Stephan was the first to disembark. He then turned back and extended his hand toward Felicia.
Felicia didn’t hesitate and placed her hand in his. With his assistance, she jumped down from the helicopter.
Before she could fully steady herself, an angry voice from a short distance away rang out. “Stephan! So, you do know how to come back! I thought you didn’t care about me anymore! All you think about is that Fuller girl!”
When the helicopter landed moments ago, Johanna had already relayed the scene to Imogen. Of course, her description emphasized two key individuals–Stephan and Felicia.
Due to Johanna’s words, Imogen’s already pent–up frustrations were immediately directed at Felicia. Her hostility was unmistakable.
Felicia was mildly surprised. She hadn’t expected Imogen to personally come to this dangerous rainforest, especially while heavily pregnant!
It was evident that the bond between the siblings was gemine.
Once Felicia steadied herself, she instinctively tried to withdraw her hand. However, she found that Stephan had no intention of letting go. She bugged slightly, but his grip only tightened
“Imogen, didn’t I tell you to leave? Why are you still here? Stephan trowned. His tone was soft, though it carried an undertone of exasperation
Fortunately, the explosion site from earlier was far away enough to avoid affecting this area. Otherwise, it would’ve been terrible to have a pregnant woman caught in all that mess.
Imogen, however, was too angry to think rationally, Coupled with her vision impairment, she couldn’t see the disheveled and bloodied state of Stephan and his group
She only knew she had spent days anxiously waiting outside the rainforest, unable to eat or sleep. Day after day of worrying and waiting had left her with nothing but pent–up frustration and anger. noveldrama
Now, finally seeing Stephan in person, her suppressed rage surged uncontrollably.
With a cold laugh, she snapped, “You can’t wait to send me far away, can you? So I won’t get in your way, right?”
Stephan was momentarily speechless, caught between amusement and exasperation. What was she even saying? He told her to leave. not because she was a bother. Rather, it was because he was worried about her safety.
“My dearest sister, why are you”
Just as he began, he was cut off right away.
“Don’t try to be close with me! I’m unworthy of being your sister. Are you satisfied now?”
Guided by the sound of his voice, Imogen turned her cold, furious gaze toward Stephan. Her anger unrestrained, she raised her hand to point in Felicia’s direction and barked, “Tell that Fuller girl to get lost! I’ve told you before–I don’t want her around me again!”
Behind Imogen, Johanna stood silently, her fingers tightening slightly. She didn’t appear to be enjoying the spectacle. Instead, her mind was preoccupied with someone else entirely.
Hadn’t he promised that this time, he would eliminate Stephan for good? Why was Stephan still alive and well? And her brother… What happened to him?
Johanna’s eyes flickered with unease, but no one paid any attention to her.
Stephan’s expression darkened, the usual glint of amusement absent from his eyes. He summoned Andy, who had been staying by Imogen’s side, and asked, “What happened while I was gone?”
Right as Andy was about to give his report, Stanley stepped forward, patting him on the shoulder. Stanley cleared his threat and said, ”
Mr. Russell, let me explain.”
With that, Stanley vividly recounted everything that had transpired after Stephan left Khogend.
He described how Felicia had accepted the Russell family’s request for medical consultation and traveled to Seldvale to diagnose and treat Imogen’s eyes. Felicia had even assured them that the condition was treatable and prepared the necessary medicinal Ingredients.
Initially, Felicia and Imogen had gotten along well, but everything changed when Johanna brought up the death of Archie, hinting that it was connected to the Fuller family. Enraged, Imogen turned against Felicia, her hatred for the Fuller family extending to her. She‘ even kicked her out of the Russell residence.
