Return Of The Crowned Heiress 75
Chapter 75
Dexter paused and sighed deeply. "It's not that | want the marriage, but Mr. Lawson Senior is awfully determined.
"He won't budge, and he only wants Licia as his granddaughter-in-law. There's nothing | can do about it. You
can't possibly expectto sever ties with him, can you?" Sebastian fell silent. From the way Matthew was
willing to resort to threatening the Fullers into agreeing to the marriage, it was clear that nothing could sway his
resolve. But there was one critical question. What was it about Felicia that made Matthew so adamant about her
marrying Arnold? Why was he willing to use such forceful tactics?
"Don't you find it strange, Dad? Why is Mr. Lawson Senior so fixated on this marriage? What exactly does he see
in her?"
If it were just about family background, there were plenty of other powerful families that were more suitable
matches for the Lawsons.
Plus, Felicia was raised in less-than-ideal circumstances after being swapped at birth. Her upbringing was far

If it were just about looks, Felicia was indeed a stunning beauty. However, the Lawsons, as an influential and
prestigious household, wouldn't make decisions based solely on appearance.
Dexter nodded and felt the same. "Who knows what's going through his mind? But Licia did save his life when
she first cback. Perhaps he's trying to repay that favor."
The idea that Matthew would force Felicia into a marriage where she would be stuck between Arnold and Kayla
hardly seemed like an act of gratitude.
Sebastian's lips twitched. "That sounds more like a revenge."
The conversation between father and son ended as the door to the study opened.
Myra entered and noticed the shattered remains of the vase on the floor. She instructed the maids to :lean up
the mess.
Ince everything was dealt with, she said, "Sebastian, | had the kitchen make your favorite baked fish. Would you
like to try some?"
No, thank you. | already ate on the way back." Sebastian lowered his gaze.
lo wonder Felicia had suggested eating in a restauraht before returning home. He initially thought she as a picky
eater and didn't like the food at home. Now, | was clear to him that the atmosphere at hould ruin her
appetite.
s Sebastian left the study, he overheard a maid around the corner mockingly mentioning Felicia's name. he
implication was clear-Felicia was nothing now that He was back to support Kayla.
ebastian couldn't believe what he was hearing.
maid who would speak in such a manner in the Fuller residence indicated that Dexter and Myra's titude toward
Felicia was one of disregard.
ithout their indifference and permission, no maid would ever have the guts to trample on Felicia. bastian's

Chap 75
Holly was in the middle of her tirade when she looked up and saw Sebastian. She dropped the broom in terror
and accidentally scattered the vase fragments she had just swept up. "Mr. Fuller..."
"Pack your things and leave. The Fuller family doesn't need employees who take a paycheck and insult their
employers. Sebastian's tone was as cold as ice.
He glanced at the other maids and made it clear that anyone caught gossiping behind their backs would be
dismissed as well.
Holly panicked. She chased after him and pleaded for another chance, promising to never do it again.
But Sebastian didn't even turn. His lean figure exuded an icy indifference.
Holly burst into tears. It wasn't the first tshe had said so, and it hadn't been a big deal even when Dexter
and Myra had overheard it. She hadn't expected Sebastian to be this harsh. "Why is Mr. Fuller doing that?
Shouldn't he be protecting Ms. Kayla? Isn't a sibling bond of over a decade more important than soutsider
who was just recently brought back?"
