Chapter 165

Harper looked as though she had just been slapped on her face.

Her body trembled violently in humiliation. Her face changed from red to grey and then to pale.

“…She just missed one day’s meal. It is not a big deal,” Harper gritted, holding on to her last thread of dignity.

“And that increases the danger of her escaping. We don’t want to take that risk!” “She is a maid, and she is closely watched by dozens of guards in this palace. It is perfectly safe-”

“She is a fucking Gamma!” Lance snarled, his furious voice echoing across the room, “I have seen her kill more than dozens of guards! You are a fucking moron to underestimate her!”

Harper’s cheeks flamed.

There were shameful tears circling in her eyes.

“Can we not do this in front of everyone?” she pleaded with a hushed tone, “I am still your queen. Please don’t underestimate me in front of my maids…”

Yet Lance kept an indifferent attitude, “A decent queen would never cause me so many troubles. Maybe you should take a moment to reflect upon yourself.”

Harper looked as though she wanted to vanish in the thin air.

After a short pause, she jerked around and growled to the maids and guards in the

room:

“Leave us! Get the fuck out of here!”

Everyone hurried to exit the room holding their heads down.

Lance said to Janet in a softened voice, “You go ahead and find yourself some band–aid for your thumb.”

Janet said nothing and glanced at Harper before she left the room.

She saw Harper glaring at her with flames of jealousy burning in her eyes.

Janet walked out of the room and closed the door behind her back.

Yet she didn’t walk away but instead pressed her ear against the door panel, listening attentively for the noises inside.

She soon heard quarrels.

“You can’t do this to her, Harper! You can’t torment her like a fucking salve!” Lance snarled, “Whatever you are planning just stop it right now!”

Harper yelled back like a manic, “But why? My King, I don’t understand! You were perfectly with me chopping off her hands a week ago! What made you change your mind?! Is it because you like her? You think she is pretty and suddenly feel sorry! her, don’t you!”

“Stop acting like a fucking jealous woman! CHRIST!”
