Return of the Crowned Heiress

Chapter 304

Felicia's audacity to taunt Maurice stunned his men.

But instead of getting angry, Maurice burst into laughter. He smacked the armrests of his wheelchair, his deep chuckles vibrating through his chest.

When he finally calmed down, he looked at Felicia with a sly smile and said, "I'll give it to you-you're definitely not like other women. No wonder you caught Stephan's eye."

In a flash, the pieces fell into place before she spoke up. Felicia's mind raced, and she figured out who he was.

The only one bold enough to abduct her in broad daylight, speak of Stephan with such hostility, and fly her straight toward Ablil was no other than Maurice-the tyrant of Ablil. People also called him a mad dog.

Felicia's stomach churned, but she forced herself to stay composed. At least she'd had the foresight to send Carmen running before she got caught. Only God knew what this lunatic would've done if Carmen had been there too. Maurice studied her face, watching her expressions shift and change. His smile deepened. "Judging by that look on your face, I would say you've figured out who I am."

"Nope. I've never heard of you."

Felicia refused to give him satisfaction. Even if she knew exactly who he was, she wasn't about to let him gloat. Denial would irritate him even more.

Maurice wasn't fazed. Instead, he leaned back and said lazily, "How about I give you a chance?"

Felicia stayed silent, waiting for him to continue.
