Return of the Crowned Heiress

Chapter 319

"Hello?"

"It's me."

"Felicia? Are you okay? Where are you? Are you hurt?"

Hearing Felicia's voice, Carmen couldn't stop herself from firing off her questions, her voice shaking with emotion. Her eyes reddened as relief and worry washed over her.

These past days, she had done everything she could to find Felicia. However, she was alone, without resources or connections, and she didn't even know where Felicia had been taken. With no leads or clues, finding her was like searching for a needle in a haystack.

Carmen's guilt gnawed at her. She regretted leaving Felicia behind that day, fleeing when she should've stayed. Maybe they could have fought back together if she had stayed.

Felicia glanced at the clock. Time was tight. She spoke quickly, "I don't have long, Carmen. Don't worry about me I'm fine.

"In three days, I'll be back. Listen, don't try to find me, and don't do anything reckless. I'll come back, I promise."
