Return of the Crowned Heiress

Chapter 332

Maurice froze for a moment. Wait... She actually pulled that off? Not only did Felicia survive, but she even had the audacity to flip him the bird.

And just like that, Maurice burst into laughter.

Everyone else was also completely baffled.

Jealousy churned in her chest. And then an idea hit her-Maurice's other "pet". The bear that lived just beyond this enclosure.
