Chapter 177

“Doomed? No, no! King Lance is still alive. I just need you to help me transfer him to a safer place!” hissed the first voice.

Janet recognized this voice as well.

It was the woman who went undercover with Lance in Crimson Fortress, the same person who pretended to be Lance’s wife, Layla.

Harper clicked her tongue impatiently.

Layla blurted out again, “King Lance lost his healing power because this city is not longer the rogue’s territory. But I have chosen another city nearby as our new headquarters. Just help me transfer the King there and he will restore his power-” “Why would I do that?” Harper laughed icily.

“You are his Queen! His mate! You said that you loved him-”

“I fucking lied, alright? The only thing that I liked about him was his power. Now he has lost all his subjects, even his palace, he means nothing to me now!” Harper said ruthlessly.

Layla cried in disbelief, “How can you do this…..”

“Fuck off you bitch! Stop harassing our daughter!”

That was Hellen.

Sounded like Hellen and Paul were together with Harper.

“Yeah, stay out of our way!” Paul yelled, “Your King wasn’t even willing to throw my daughter a decent wedding. Why would we save his life now?”

Layla gritted, “You can’t possibly compare these two things-”

“Why not? Your King humiliated me in front of all the guests! We are done!” Harper said in a vicious voice, “Actually, I hope that he dies now so that the Moon Goddess. can start arranging for my second chance mate.”

“YOU COLD BITCH!”

Layla roared in sorrow:

“It if weren’t for him, you would still be a fucking slave bossed around by Janet! I am fucking killing you right now!”

There was the sound of fighting, followed by curses and painful groans.

…Layla knows where Lance is,” Janet whispered to Daran.

Daran nodded, “Let’s go get her.”

They leaped up the stairs, going after their target.

At the top of the staircase, they saw Layla grabbing a handful of Harper’s hair and smashing Harper’s head against the wall.

Harper cried miserably.

Hellen and Paul were pulling Layla’s arms, trying to break up the fight. They jerked around in unison when they heard the approaching footsteps.

They all froze in horror when they saw Janet and Daran coming at them.

“Fuck!” Harper shrieked.

She elbowed Layla and knocked her over, rushing straight at the door, with her parents on her heels.

Layla tried to run as well.

But she didn’t make a few steps far before being tackled to the ground by Daran.

Daran grabbed her collar and hissed, “Where is Lance!”

Layla spat, “You wish!”
