Return of the Crowned Heiress

Chapter 248

"Consider that last bottle a free sample," Felicia began, her tone turning businesslike. "You saw how well it worked, right? Sprinkle the powder, and the bleeding stops instantly. In three days, you'll be as good as new!" She opened her bag and pulled out five more identical bottles. "I've got five left. Are you interested, Mr. Russell?"

Her pitch was smooth, her enthusiasm genuine. "You're always getting injured, so this stuff is perfect for you. If it doesn't work, feel free to trash my reputation!"

Stephan raised an eyebrow, his expression unreadable as he leaned back against the bed. His toned body was still exposed. The bandages she had wrapped highlighted the sharp contours of his abs and the alluring lines of his toned muscles. Felicia quickly averted her gaze, her thoughts threatening to wander.

Felicia's annoyance melted away, replaced by a bright, businesslike smile. "That's what I like to hear, Mr. Russell!"

Stephan tilted his head, his gaze sharp. "Are you asking for 500 grand?" he asked, amused. "Done."

Felicia's jaw dropped. "What?"
