Chapter 683 I Will Never Take Your Life (Part Two)


    "Now that you have regained your memory, would you like to continue as our enemy?" Jason asked


    what Francis couldn''t ask her.


    "When did I ever be your enemy? It was you who always regarded us as your enemies. Matthew


    disdains to fight for the throne. But we are not afraid of any persecution. All the people in our mansion


    are fearless. We are stronger when faced with adversaries. I''m sure you have witnessed it," Harper


    slowly exined.


    "Don''t you think you''re overestimating yourself?"


    "It''s called confidence. If I don''t have it, how can I deserve Matthew?" Harper put down the teacup from


    her hand and continued, "Jason, our master hoped that both of us can live in peace. He even forced


    me to swear that I would never take your life, so you don''t have to worry. Since I have promised him, I


    will always stay true to my words."


    Jason was surprised to hear what his master had forced Harper to do. Why didn''t he know about this?


    "Did our master know who you are from the very beginning?"


    With a wry smile, Harper responded, "He knew who we are. I really don''t understand why he thought


    that a youngdy who was not even favored in the Chu n could threaten your life."


    "Haven''t you threatened enough people?" It was a rhetorical question so Harper didn''t respond. Jason


    turned to look at Francis who was still unconscious. He then asked, "Do you know that he made


    countless sugar figurines with your face in his mansion?"


    "I didn''t know that and even if I do, I''ll pretend that I don''t," Harper absentmindedly said while rubbing


    the edge of the teacup with her fingers.


    Jason smiled sarcastically and asked another question. "Is it true that anyone in the world can''t catch


    your attention except your husband, Matthew?"


    "Sort of. I am his wife so I''ll be happy and worried for him all my life, unless he betrays me," Harper


    candidly answered.


    "What if he dies?" Jason''s murderous intentions burst out instantly. "If Matthew is dead, what would you


    do?"


    Harper raised her eyebrows and looked at Jason with a small smile. However, she didn''t answer him.


    Her mind was racing fast. If it wasn''t a natural death, then she would do everything she could to kill the


    murderer. As for the rest, she couldn''t figure it out at that moment, nor did she want to think about it.


    What would happen to her if Matthew left her? Perhaps, she would live well, or go toherworld with


    him. But she was confident that it was not the time yet. For now, she didn''t know what she would do


    with so many possible scenarios.


    For some reason, Jason felt that there was danger in Harper''s eyes when she looked at him. He was


    suddenly worried about this. Their goal had been to kill Lucas while they were on the way to the


    marriage alliance. But they had also intended to get rid of Matthew.


    Matthew was prestige at the imperial court. He was also of high rank with a strong military force. The


    late emperor had been afraid of him for these reasons. He was a prince with an army of 300 thousand


    soldiers. Moreover, the army was not under the control of the imperial court. It belonged to Matthew


    alone. As long as he was alive, no one could sleep so soundly. Not only the former emperor, but


    Francis was also afraid of him. However, Francis might have had something else in mind.


    Jason started to speak in metaphors. "Few servants will have a good ending if they have excellent


    contributions and can threaten and outshine their master. I just remembered that the ck g Army


    has three hundred thousand soldiers. I always find it too ostentatious."


    "Without the ck g Army, do you think our country is a rival of Rndo?" Harper''s tone was


    indifferent as usual. All she wanted was a stable, safe, and small family. It could be said that she was


    selfish since her care only concerned that of herself, her family, and her friends. As for themon


    people of the world, she could only be sorry that she didn''t have enough space for them in her heart.

    "I just hope—" Harper tried to speak but she was cut off.


    "Harper! Harper... Are you okay?" Francis was in a semia and he still thought about that moment


    when he blocked the hidden weapons. Jason looked at Harper significantly.


    Harper stepped forward but didn''t approach Francis. Then, she said in a gentle voice, "Don''t worry. I''m


    fine."


    Francis felt relieved when he heard Harper''s voice. His well-wrapped wounds were bleeding because


    he was struggling so much.


    "Water," Francis mumbled. Jason immediately poured a cup of water, and carefully helped Francis get


    up and drink it. Harper thought that Jason was being so considerate. She wanted to mock him, but she


    stopped herself from doing so.


    "Do you want more?" Jason asked softly.


    Francis didn''t reply, so Jason put him down, letting him rest some more. He nced at Francis''


    bleeding wound and said, "Please bind up his wound again."


    Harper nodded her head. As soon as she sat down by the bed, Francis grabbed her hand before she


    could even touch his wound. No matter how much she struggled, he didn''t let her go. Harper gritted her


    teeth and red at Jason. The man rubbed his nose before saying, "Thank you for taking care of him.


    Anyway, I''m too sleepy so I''m going to sleep for a while."


    Then he turned over and fell asleep regardless of Harper''s pain. Soon, his rhythmic breathing could be


    heard. Harper frowned and thought of countless ways to make Francis loosen his grip on her. Yet, after


    a moment of thought, she did nothing but let out a sigh.
