After everything that happened, Yvonne felt more determined to marry Hansen as a concubine. Whether Hansen agreed or not, she would find a way to marry into Prince Kevin's mansion. After she achieved that goal, she would slap Felicia right in the face, just like what Felicia did to her.
Felicia kept on scolding and beating Yvonne until she was satisfied. It seemed all her frustrations melted away at the beating she doled out. What a great stress-reliever! Yvonne's whimpers made Felicia feel good. From then on, she would find trouble for Yvonne so she could beat her again and again. Although Carrie, Yvonne's biological mother, had mentioned and complained about this to Sue many times, Sue just ignored her. With no choice, Carrie had to ask her daughter to stay inside the house and avoid Felicia at all costs.
Harper knew everything that happened in the Chu Clan mansion. But she chose to stay in her own house and did not leave. Fortunately, her decision drove her away from Sue's warpath on her so she was safe from her plans.
Night fell.
Someone broke into Harper's room when she was about to sleep. Before she could realize what was happening, the person had already hit one of her acupuncture points. As she fell limp and unconscious, her captor carried her on his shoulder before leaving.
Being upside down on her captor's shoulder, Harper feel so sick in her stomach that she threw up. But the man didn't care and continued walking towards Matthew's mansion.
When the man put Harper down, she was still throwing up. Everyone looked at Barry before they took a step back. Barry carefully put her down before he disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Harper continued throwing up for a long time before she finally stopped. Once calm, she began to check her surroundings. When she saw Denny, she grew furious and rushed over to him, twisting his ear fiercely. "Bastard, you asked that man to kidnap me? How dare you! I almost died!"
Denny's face turned red all of a sudden. All the people gawked at the pair as Denny was bowled over by Harper. They had never seen Denny act meek and under the spell of a woman. It was too funny and shocking. Harper also surprised them. This woman was so strong and aggressive. She even dared to tweak Denny's ear! Wasn't she afraid that he would kill her in a fit of rage?
"Let me go!" Denny pulled his ear away from Harper's hand, and then backed far away from her. "It was His Highness's guard who caught and brought you here, not me! His Highness sent someone to bring you here before he passed out. You don't believe my words? Fine, you can ask him,"
Denny said and pointed at Matthew who was lying in the bed, unconscious. He probably did it without any ill intentions. It wasn't until she saw Matthew that Harper finally realized that she was now in Matthew's mansion. She looked to the unconscious man in the bed.
"What's wrong with him?" she asked.
"The poison made him slip into a coma," Denny answered.
"He deserves it!" The moment she finished her words, Harper turned around and intended to walk out. Denny was stunned for a second. But as soon as he collected himself, he moved to stop her from leaving.
