Hailey looked at the face of the man who caught her. At that moment, she almost couldn't believe her eyes. With her voice
trembling, she mumbled, "Howard! It's you!"
Howard quickly grabbed Hailey's hand and pushed it aside. As a result, Hailey lost balance and fell to the ground in an extremely
awkward fashion. This caused her cloak to slip off, revealing her scarred neck, which looked so hideous.
"Howard, what on earth do you think you are doing?" Hailey protested at once, giving him a cold glare. At that moment, every
fiber of her being was trembling in anger. "Do you have any idea what you are doing right now? You are protecting your enemy!"
"I can't let you hurt her," Howard answered in a cold voice, without the slightest hint of hesitation on his face. Even though the
person he just threw out was his biological sister, he didn't feel sorry for hurting her.
"Have you forgotten who started all of this and brought us into this miserable situation? Why do you still want to protect that
bitch?" Hailey cried out in anger. Hearing Howard's response came as a great shock to her. Deep in her heart, she thought that
he would be on her side and that he hated Harper more than her, so he was probably more eager to kill her. But the truth
happened to be the exact opposite, as he actually saved Harper.
With her arms crossed in front of her chest, Harper quietly watched as the two siblings argued, looking as though she was
interested in such a farce. "It seems to me that the person who behaved like me at the royal banquet had been taught by none
other than you," she firmly said.
"Humph! So what? Do you seriously believe that you can still go back? Harper, let me tell you something. There's no way I'm

letting you go that easily now that you've finally come here!" Hailey suddenly blurted out as if she recalled something.
"Well, it seems that we are thinking the same thing," Harper said, pushing Howard aside as she stepped forward. At that
moment, every move she made was so elegant and graceful. "I also wasn't planning to let you go that easily today, even if he

make Harper's life a living hell. Thus, she trained so hard to improve her strength and fighting ability. In her mind, she thought that Harper had simply been living her life in luxury, so she wouldn't be capable of resisting her. For that reason, Hailey firmly believed that as long as Howard wouldn't lend her

Cold as a snake, he was only thinking about himself. Harper likened him to a viper. There was no better way of describing him. "You don't have to tell him anything. Don't forget this. I am not just some weak woman," Harper said. Moving forward step by step, she was brimming with elegance. However, the

leaving her stunned for a second. But she managed to pull herself together right away, waving the dagger onto her other hand to
try to free herself from the rattan. To her dismay, another rattan flew in, binding her other arm as well.
"What are these? What did you just do?" Hailey asked, sounding so furious as she struggled to break free.
"I didn't do anything," Harper slowly said. "But it should be enough to kill you."
As she looked at Hailey who was hung in the air, the smile on Harper's face disappeared. "Hailey, you're the only person I've
