I'd say pay closer attention to small details. To illustrate, here's from the first and second paragraphs of Chapter One -

Felicia was an exceptional girl. She was known among most of her family members to be a very light sleeper; infact, [1] one of her uncle [2] who is a professor believes she was suffering from insomnia and had pestered her parent [3] to treat her on that.So, [4] Just to please this Uncle [5] of hers,and [6] out of curiosity, her parent had taken her to a certified Hospital but the Doctor [7] said she was not having such sleeping problem.
Today, she was still sleeping at 9.am. [8] Nobody would disturb or dares disturb her, she knows, so she slept soundly. [9]

1. “In fact” - two words.
2. “Uncles” - the noun or pronoun that follows “one of” is always pluralised.
3. You sure you didn’t mean “parents”? If you mean one parent it’s batter to use the more specific “father” or “mother”.
4. Insert a space after the full stop – this error is very common around here and I’m not sure why. It makes your writing inelegant.
5. There is no need to capitalise the uncle.
6. Same as (4) above.
7. No need to capitalise hospital and doctor. Capitalisation is generally reserved for proper nouns – that is names of people and places. You may only capitalise anything else to “foreground” it as a technique.
8. “By 9am” or “by 9a.m.” or “by 9AM”. A space after the number is also fine.
9. “She knew nobody would disturb her, so she slept soundly.” Or “She knew nobody would dare disturb her, so she slept soundly.”
