Return of the Crowned Heiress

Johanna watched coldly, a wicked smile curling at the comers of her lips. Suddenly, a thought crossed her mind, and she tumed to Imogen to add, “Don’t worry, Ms. Russell Once you’re dead, I’ll make sure your son joins you in the afterlife!”

In the midst of excniciating pain, Archie regained his senses. Looking down, he met Imogen’s icy gaze. Hereyes.. She could see again?
