Chapter 759 Asking For Some Reward (Part One)
In fact, Harper was as surprised as everyone else. She didn''t do anything and yet the poison needle
flew in the air.
"Lady Harper, how can you be so cruel? Prince Kile is just a little mischievous. How could you be so
ruthless to kill him because of that?" Lance took the lead in putting the me on Harper, before she
and Kile could say anything.
"As an emperor of a country, it would be better for you to think twice before you say something," Harper
said with a sneer.
"Lady Harper, you had the intention to kill Prince Kile using a poison needle. Everybody clearly saw
what you did. Do you still want to defend yourself? Murdering a prince of another country is a huge
crime!" Lance eximed, obviously enraged about the whole situation.
Upon hearing that, Harper only smiled. She then said to Matthew, "Darling, it seems like His Majesty
doesn''t want to be allied with our Bright Dynasty forever. This thing happened all of a sudden. I didn''t
even know what happened. He''s sitting far away, but he ims that he saw everything clearly. I''m
impressed by his eyesight."
Lance didn''t know how to respond to that. His reaction was indeed exaggerated but still, he insisted on
his point. "Lady Harper, why can''t you just admit what you did? Everyone saw that you had a hidden
weapon and you wanted to kill Prince Kile. If that official weren''t there to protect Prince Kile, it would
have been him who''s dead by now."
Meanwhile, Kile finally came to his senses. He looked at Aiden who was dead and lying on the ground
with a grim face. Then, he turned to Harper, but didn''t say anything. He saw with his own two eyes that
Harper didn''t do anything. There was no doubt about it. However, that hidden weapon had indeed been
shot from her position. Aside from her, no one could have shot the hidden weapon from that angle!
At that point, Miguel decided to stir up trouble. "Lady Harper, you''re the only one who can shoot a
hidden weapon from that angle. Moreover, the hidden weapon was aimed exactly at Prince Kile."
Diana sneered and joined in the conversation, adding fuel to the fire. "I didn''t expect you to be this
cruel. Just now, Prince Kile delightfully greeted you. However, you almost killed him with a single grape.
He would be dead if Prime Minister Miguel didn''t save him. You did not seed in killing the prince that
way, so this time, you tried to kill him again in such a vicious way. How dare you!"
"I did not do such a thing. Everything that you''re using me of, I don''t know anything about them.
Prince Kile, you have been standing right in front of me. Did you see me doing anything of that sort?"
Harper asked calmly.
Kile looked at Harper. Everyone thought that he would nod and further implicate Harper. However, Kile
hesitated for a moment before finally shaking his head. "No, I didn''t see her do anything. I only saw that
she became more beautiful even with a frown on her face."
''Asshole!'' Lance eximed to himself. Silently rolling his eyes, Lance thought that Kile was extremely
unconcerned with important things. He almost died under Harper''s hands. How could he still praise her
beautiful face with a frown?
"Your Highness, please don''t be deceived by her appearance. She almost killed you! Aiden died for
you. The only purpose of that woman is to murder you!" The envoys of the Wonder Kingdom were very
dissatisfied to witness that Aiden was already dead and yet, their prince was still defending Harper.
Giving the speaker an indifferent nce, Kile responded, "I said I didn''t see her do anything remotely
close to what you''re using her. It happened during the Worship Ceremony in the South Kingdom.
I''m the guest, so is Princess Harper. I will ask His Majesty to investigate it thoroughly and give me an
exnation. Otherwise, I won''t let it go so easily."
Lance turned his attention to Matthew who had never spoken the entire time.This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
"Prince Matthew, what do you think?"
"I trust my wife," Matthew immediately said without any hesitation, as if he was just telling a true
statement. If they wanted to kill someone, they had plenty of ways to do it. More importantly, they
wouldn''t do it in such a stupid way that would turn everyone''s usations on them.
"But the hidden weapon was shot from Princess Harper''s position. The envoy of the Wonder Kingdom
even died because of it. Your wife is the only one who can shoot the hidden weapon from that angle.
You can''t prove that she is innocent just by saying that you believe in her. Prince Matthew, please hand
over Princess Harper and give an exnation to the Wonder Kingdom," Lance said in amanding
tone.
"Humph. Before going that, I need you to hand over Francis, the traitor of the Bright Dynasty. He
committed regicide, killed his brother, and created internal conflicts in our kingdom. Yet, you allow him
to be your son-inw here in the South Kingdom. Do you really want to be an enemy of the Bright
Dynasty?" Matthew questioned with a snort.
Lance didn''t expect that Matthew would mention Francis. "That''s two very different matters. What we''re
talking about right now is the issue with Princess Harper and how she killed the envoy of the Wonder
Kingdom."
"I think we can both agree that we''re civil people. Well, things have to be done in proper sequence.
Francismitted regicide first and the attack on Prince Kile happened after that. So naturally, we
have to deal with the matter concerning Francis first. If you think that pushing around the Bright
Dynasty is easy, I don''t mind marching my ck g Army with three hundred thousand soldiers to the
South Kingdom," Matthewzily replied while ying with his wine ss.
"Prince Matthew, are you trying to cover up what Lady Harper did?" Lance was so irritated with what he
said that he couldn''t help but exim in his mind, ''What an unreasonable man! If things do not go as he
wishes, he will force others to do as he likes. At this point, he''s no different to a bandit.''
"My wife didn''t kill the envoy of the Wonder Kingdom. So what is there to cover up? You really are a
strange one. You''re protecting the convicted traitor of the Bright Dynasty and now you''re framing my
wife. Why are you doing all of this?" Matthew had never been a person to concede. If he had, he
wouldn''t have been persecuted again and again by the former emperor of the Bright Dynasty.
"Prince Matthew, it''s the people of the Wonder Kingdom who want to hold Princess Harper ountable
for the murder of the envoy!"
