Part of the reason why Samuel was able to run away was because the Qin Clan let him escape on purpose. They wanted to
know how much Felton meant to Harper so that they would know how to negotiate with her. With the way she worked, they knew
that only when they had sufficient chips could they move on with any kind of negotiation.
To the Qin Clan's surprise, even after receiving Samuel's message to save his master Felton, Harper didn't take any action.
Actually, they did the exact opposite: Harper and her husband hung out in the Phoenix City like a normal couple, as if Felton's
disappearance meant nothing to either of them.
"Does Harper not care about Felton at all?" Beth asked, shocked and bewildered. She had initially thought that as soon as
Harper heard that Felton was in trouble, she would immediately go to the Qin Clan's mansion to save him, a scenario which Beth
could take advantage of. With the way Harper was acting, it seemed like no negotiation would happen, and that she would let
Felton rot wherever he was.
"Little Harper," a voice called out as a figure draped in red cloak swooped down in front of Harper. This stunned Harper, and

"Why is everyone in the Qin Clan so arrogant?" Daphne felt annoyed upon hearing what Harper said. Were the people of the Qin
family stupid or what? Did they forget that Harper was now Matthew's wife? Did they think that Matthew would not be able to do
