Chapter 677 Suffer From Your Own Action (Part Two)
"Try not to worry yourself too much. Rndo may be a cold man, but he is by no means a vicious
man," Harper said slowly. "There is a saying that all emperors are unfaithful and fickle, but they are
also affectionate."
A wry smile crept onto Lucas'' face. What Harper said sounded contradictory and ironic. Emperors were
fickle because they would soon abandon a woman they had just doted on; emperors were affectionate
because they would fall in love with multiple women at the same time but such affections didn''tst
long.
"I''ll be taking my leave now, Aunt Harper."
The receding back of Lucas seemed so lonely. Seeing that, Harper helplessly shook her head and
blurted out, "He is another hair-splitter."
"Your Highness, why did you say that?"
"I guess he must have been irritated by Prince Francis. As a result, he has no clue what he''s supposed
to do for the time being. And the younger sister who has grown up by his side is going to marry
someone far away from him for political reasons, so he feels restless and cannot keep his cool." Harper
had not expected that Lucas could actually be so warm-hearted and that he had been watching over
the younger sister who had grown up together with him.
"Prince Lucas is also very affectionate, Your Highness."
"What do you mean?"
"He goes whoring almost every day. In fact, his lovers are avable in almost every major brothel in the
imperial capital. I even heard that when the courtiers go whoring, they would ask first if the prostitute
they liked is Prince Lucas'' lover, fearing that the prince would make trouble for them if the one they
chose was really his lover," Nina blurted out. It was clear as day that she didn''t think highly of Lucas.
Hearing that, Harper burst outughing. "Have you forgotten that thergest brothel of a country is an
emperor''s harem?!"
"Please don''t say that, Your Highness!" Nina reminded her at once, looking around quickly to make
sure that no outsider was there to hear it. Then, keeping a low voice, she said, "Your Highness, if
anybody else heard what you said just now, you would be used of showing great disrespect to His
Majesty."
"Don''t you think so? The Imperial Pce is thergest brothel, and an emperor is like the most popr
prostitute. Today, he curries favor with the empress; tomorrow, he will curry favor with a noble consort;
the day after tomorrow, he will curry favor with ady; and so on and so forth. There are so many
women he can take for himself," Harper added, shaking her head in disappointment. "So, Nina, never
marry a man who wants to have many concubines. After you marry Barry, if he ever dares to take any
concubine, I will allow you to castrate him."
At the same time, Matthew had just returned and was walking toward Harper with Barry. Overhearing
what Harper had just said, he could not help looking at Barry, only to find that the color of his face had
been changing bit by bit. In the end, Barry''s face turned red all over.
Seeing this, Matthew couldn''t hold back hisughter. As a result, Barry''s face grew even darker. He
nced at Matthew, wondering if Harper would castrate Matthew one day as well if she became
unhappy, since she could incite Nina to castrate him just like that.
"What will you do if His Highness takes a concubine, Your Highness?" the maids asked Harper
simultaneously. "Are you going to castrate His Highness as well?"
Hearing that, Matthew instantly took back his foot, which was just about to step into the yard. He
wanted to know what Harper would do.
"I will give him a divorce agreement and break up with him for good. Then, we won''t ever have anything
to do with each other anymore," Harper said in a cold voice. Although she made it sound like a joke,
nobody dared to take it that way.
Seeing the maids all dumbstruck, Harper couldn''t help butugh. "I''m just kidding. You are all so
gullible! I have a sense of clear distinction between love and hatred. If I love him, I''ll love him with all
my heart. If I don''t love him any longer, I''ll break up with him peacefully. There won''t be any looking
back, which can only hurt both sides."
Nina desperately winked at Harper, trying to give her a sign that Matthew had returned and was right
behind her. And he seemed to be fuming with anger.
Noticing that Nina kept blinking her eyes, Harper asked innocently, "Nina, what''s the matter? Is there
something in your eye? Listen, you must remember what I said. If Barry dares to take a concubine, you
have to castrate him, understand? If you can''t do it, just tell me and I''ll have someone do that for you."
Hearing this loud and clear, Barry cast Harper a cold re. ''You will suffer from your own words. You''re
sowing discord between me and Nina. Just wait and see. Very soon, His Highness is going to punish
you!'' he thought to himself.
Forsythia forced a cough to let Harper know that Matthew was right behind her.

However, Harper shifted her gaze toward Forsythia and asked, "Forsythia, do you have a sore throat?
Have you caught a cold? Let me check your pulse. I''m sure I can cure you with just one set of
medicines."
At this point, Forsythia couldn''t take it anymore. She said, "Your Highness, I''m all right. I don''t need to
take any medicine. But judging from the look on His Highness''s face, I guess he would not be cured by
only one set of medicines. I wish you luck."
As soon as she said those words, Forsythia quickly slipped away like a loach. Nina and Anabel ran
away too, leaving Harper by herself. After blinking her eyes, Harper hastily poured a cup of tea, turned
around, and handed it over to Matthew with both hands. "Wee back, darling. Are you thirsty? Here,
have some tea."
But Matthew didn''t ept the cup of tea. Instead, he asked in a menacing tone, "Are you going to give
me a divorce agreement?"
"Your Highness, are you going to take a concubine?" Harper curiously asked.
"I said I would never take any concubine!"
"Have you fallen in love with another woman?"
"I am a devoted husband!"
"That''s it. You haven''t fallen in love with any other woman, nor are you going to take any concubine.
With that, how could I give you a divorce agreement? Of course I will live happily with you as always!"
Harper ced the cup of tea by his mouth. "Have some tea, darling. You must have had a hard time in
the imperial court session. I have asked the chef to prepare your favorite dishes as a reward for you."
In just the blink of an eye, the darkness on Matthew''s face disappearedpletely. Seeing that, Barry
helplessly covered his face with his hands, thinking that there was no cure for what Prince Matthew
had.
