Chapter 667 Something In His Hand (Part Two)


    "I won''t…"


    "Don''t decide so hastily. Consider it before you get there. Don''t you want to know why you ended up in


    this way?" Howard asked in a meaningful tone. "Since you prepared your birthday gift for His Majesty,


    you had fallen into a trap set by someone."


    Felix''s face turned pale. "I don''t know what you mean," he said.


    "Do you still remember the incident at Scott''s mansion?" Howard said as he walked forward. "I believe


    that you haven''t forgotten that, because since that incident, you fell into a trap set by Prince Francis


    and finally ended up this way."


    "No way!"


    "Why do you think it is impossible?" Howard sneered. "Prince Francis has always been in the imperial


    capital. Because of his poor health, he seldom made any public appearance. Even if he disappeared


    for a period, no one woulde to know. Prince Jason had been outside, building up his force. One of


    them has been always inside the imperial capital, and the other was outside. The two of them worked


    hand in hand to make a vast web of traps for you, and you sneaked in it, just as they had expected."


    Felix was horrified to hear Howard''s disclosure. He couldn''t believe what he heard and was still in


    denial. "Francis is dying. He won''t live a long life." He intensely tried to throw off his doubts.


    "Don''t worry about him. He will live a long life, but I''m afraid it''s His Majesty who wouldn''t live longer."


    Howard was quick to dismiss his doubts.


    "He had been poisoned, and his body has been totally damaged. Then how could he possibly live a


    long life?" Felix said, shaking his head, and still in denial. "It''s impossible for him to live a long life."


    "That''s why I said all of you have neglected her," Howard saidcently, as if he was proud to have


    a young sister like Harper. "Do you know why Prince Francis moved out of the Imperial Pce and


    lived outside alone? He did it so that he could get treated by Harper and improve his health."


    "Harper Chu again!" Felix shouted, raging with anger. But after thinking for a while, he realized that he


    knew nothing about Harper except for her gentle appearance.


    "It had nothing to do with Harper. You can''t me her. You should remember that the person who gave


    the final nail in His Majesty''s coffin was not Harper, but you, Prince Felix," Howard said in a harsh tone.


    "Me? A nail in my father''s coffin?" Felix searched his memory for any such instance when he directly


    harmed his father. "The Longevity Pills!" he eximed in shock.


    "So, you are not that stupid," Howard said calmly. "When Scott and his family were ughtered in their


    mansion, I was there. Guess who rescued the son of Imperial Physician Hodge?"


    "You did that?"


    "No, no, that wasn''t me. Prince Jason did that." Howard paused for a while, as if he was searching for


    the secret mechanism inside the passage underground. "We just stood by and witnessed where things


    were progressing. We were never involved in it. It was Prince Francis who asked Scott to develop the


    Longevity Pills, and it was Prince Walden who snatched the Longevity Pills from Scott. It was you who


    gave the Longevity Pills to His Majesty as the birthday gift."

    "The Longevity Pills were poisonous?"


    "Yeah, a kind of poison that can be used to control people. I guess His Majesty must have been


    controlled by the drug. In other words, he is in the hand of Francis, and he can do nothing about it.


    Harper said that His Majesty''s health had already been in bad condition, and since he is now addicted


    to the drug, it''s only a matter of time before his death. But she has been curious as to whom His


    Majesty would be selecting as his heir," Howard said, as he exined the gravity of the plot.


    Felix fell silent. The heir his father had selected was not him, nor Francis, nor Jason. Even he didn''t


    know who it was. However, no matter whoever the heir was, it had nothing to do with him. The only


    thing he wanted to know was about Francis, and whether he had plotted all that had happened by


    staying behind the scene.


    "What on earth happened between my father and my wife?" he asked.


    "Perhaps you have to ask Prince Francis this question. I am not sure exactly what happened between


    them, but I know that His Majesty raped her in the Cold Pce," Howard said. Although he wasn''t


    aware of what specifically happened, he guessed that it must have something to do with Harper and


    Francis. Since neither of them could keep themselves out, he chose to let Francis take the me.


    When he heard that, Felix''s eyes reddened instantly. As the crown prince, he had always worked


    conscientiously and had never cked off for fear that he would dissatisfy and annoy the emperor and


    that his position as the crown prince would get impacted. However, it had turned out that the emperor,


    his own father, had raped his wife!


    "Damn it!" Felix sneered.


    "You have sufficient reason to hate him. He just made you a cuckold." Howard spared no effort to sow


    discord. "It seems that Prince Francis is really smart, because he hasn''t been married yet. And, Prince


    Jason is not married either. All the sons of His Majesty, except you, are unmarried."


    Felix''s eyes turned cold. "Inform Harper Chu that I am willing to give her what she wants, but on one


    condition!"


    "Tell me what it is," Howard asked with interest. He guessed that Felix wanted to kill Francis. After all,


    Francis was the one who conspired against him so viciously and precisely. ording to Howard''s


    understanding of Felix, he would certainly want to take revenge.


    "I want to see Francis!" Felix demanded.
