What intrigued Felicia mone was how Imogen suddenly came to her senses, Conlal |
After some thought, Felicia asked, “Ms Russell, you must have seen it by how, right? About Arclide and Johanna.”
Imagen forced a smile, feeling even more sorrowful inside.

Imogen nodded and replied, “Yes, I saw it with my own eyes. Felicia, thank you. If it weren’t for your medicine, I might still be kept in the dark.” “You’re welcome,” Felicia replied.
She thought to herself, “I was paid full price for the treatment, after all. Consider this extra information a bonus.”

Stephan patted the seat next to him, gesturing for Felicia to sit down
Before she could refuse, he gave her alight tug, pulling her onto the couch. As she landed, he slipped a small dish into her hands. It was filled with neatly peeled grapes.
