Return of the Crowned Heiress

10

The Fuller family was the wealthiest in Khogend and was highly sought after. The Lawson family, on the other hand, boasted a prestigious heritage spanning over a century and was the definition of an elite family.

Among the four ruling families in Khogend, the Lawson family stood at the top, far above the rest. Their position was absolutely unmatched. The marriage alliance with the Lawson family would be greatly beneficial for the Fuller family.

However, the intention to form this marriage alliance was established 18 years ago. At that time, Myra was seven months pregnant with her second child and attended an event despite her large belly. During that event, a massive screen fell from above.

Everyone there had been struck with fear, their hearts climbing up their throats. Amidst the screams and chaos, Myra emerged unscathed. The enormous screen had a hole punched through it by scaffolding, and in a stroke of luck, Myra was standing directly in the gap, completely unharmed.

A doctor present at the scene laughed and said, "Mrs. Fuller's baby is fortunate. This child is blessed with good fortune. It's a rare occurrence!"

This incident quickly became a legendary tale. Believing in this omen, Matthew made a pact with the Fullers. If the child was a girl, the two families would form a marriage alliance. When the child turned 18, he would personally propose on behalf of his grandson. However, no one expected a baby swap to occur. Kayla and Arnold grew up as childhood sweethearts, deeply in love, and this engagement had been brought up several times. Who could have known that Felicia would suddenly enter the picture?

"This must be the will of the fates!" Holly said excitedly, casting a subtle glare at Felicia. "Ms. Kayla and Mr. Lawson are a well-recognized couple. Nobody should harbor wishful delusions!"

That was a dig at Felicia, but Myra and Dexter were completely focused on Kayla as if they hadn't heard a word.

Kayla leaned against Myra's shoulder, her face flushed with excitement as she asked, "Mom, is it true that Mr. Lawson Senior will announce this proposal at the party the day after tomorrow?"

In fact, they would have to treat her with respect. With that thought in mind, Kayla looked at Felicia with a hint of pride and disdain. Felicia ignored her and walked straight past them, heading
