Chapter 838 A Special Friend (Part Two)
"Also, about the Qin n—"
"Zack, you don''t have to worry about me. Both the Qin n and the Chu n are in the past for me.
Right now, Alexander is under the protection of Marquis Pearce, and Gianna is under the protection of
Prince Allen. All I need to do is to protect Matthew''s mansion," Harper said slowly. She then looked up
and added, "Zack, look at the beautiful sky. Sometimes when you do, you will find that there are still a
lot of things worth looking forward to and pursuing in the world."
All of a sudden, the light in Zack''s eyes dimmed, but he soon returned to normal. "Yes, there are a lot of
things that are worth looking forward to in this world. By the way, when will youe back?"
"I haven''t decided yet. After I leave for the Great Jade Kingdom, I have to go to the Wonder Kingdom to
meet up with an old friend. Speaking of which, I actually want to introduce a friend to you someday,"
Harper said with a faint smile.
"He must be an interesting person, given that he is a friend of yours," Zack responded. "I''m looking
forward to seeing what kind of person he is."
"He''s a man who looks a lot like you. During the hardest part of my life, he encouraged me to hold on.
He was also the one who helped me find the master who taught me. He is like a brother to me," Harper
softly said.
Zack was surprised to see the tender expression on Harper''s face. She hadn''t shown such an
expression even in front of Alexander and Gianna. Therefore, he thought that the person she was
talking about must be of great importance to her. But he didn''t know about it until now.
"I''m even more curious now. He must be a gentle person."
Harper giggled. "Gentle? No, he''s not gentle. Every time it seemed like he was gentle, it would turn out
that he was actually nning how to y a prank on me. Unfortunately, I was not a match for him
every single time. We''re friends, but we''re also ''enemies'' if you know what I mean."
The corners of Zack''s mouth twitched a little. He thought that such a person who could make Harper
feel very warm must have a very interesting temperament. "Who is it?"
"He is the young lord of the Phoenix City. His name is Darren."
When he heard the name, Zack was a little surprised. Although Darren seldom appeared in public, no
one dared to look down on him. Even outsiders knew that Phoenix City was a strong and indestructible
city. But no one knew that eight years ago, the real ruler of the Phoenix City had been Darren, and his
father, the former ruler, had already traveled around the world so no one knew where he was.
"Darren is a remarkable man," Zack remarked.

"Really?" She paused as if in serious thought before she continued, "He is powerful and has a very
sharp tongue. Aside from that, I haven''t found anything special about him."
"But he''s the one who can make you admit defeat. Isn''t he powerful enough in this regard? As far as
I''m concerned, there aren''t many people who can make you do that," Zack seriously said.
Harper rubbed her nose and thought for a while. She then nodded her head in agreement. "I guess
you''re right. By the way, when I passed by Phoenix City, I deliberately avoided him. Will he beat me to
death the next time I see him?"
After carefully thinking it over, Zack nodded. "Probably. If you don''t want to be beaten, you can bring
Prince Matthew with you. For the sake of your husband, he may not be as furious."
Actually, Zack wasn''t telling her the entire truth. In fact, Darren was very likely to vent his anger on
Matthew and beat him up. He lied because about a week ago, Matthew was trying to instigate conflict
between him and Darren. And after listening to Harper''s exnation, he immediately knew that it had
been Darren who Matthew was vignt against.
"I think you''re right!" Nevertheless, Harper agreed with him.
Then, Forsythia came out of nowhere. "Your Highness, herees Lord Shawn."
A hint of concern instantly appeared in Harper''s eyes. "Let him in. Something might have happened to
Lady Wendy."
Shawn walked in with big strides. When he saw Zack, he was a little bit stunned. "Harper, Wendy woke
up but something''s wrong."
"Is Physician Gore unable to deal with it?" Harper was surprised. Physician Gore was supposed to be
very good at handling the kind of recovery treatment that Wendy was going through. After all, he had
learned a lot from her, and he understood the knowledge much better than those old physicians.
"Wendy is in a bad mood. She wouldn''t let Physician Gore in her room. Actually, she doesn''t let anyone
in. She just kept on yelling about some scar all the time. Her screams can be heard all throughout the
mansion so I didn''t have a choice but toe and see you." A strange look appeared on Shawn''s face.
He didn''t seem to understand Wendy''s reaction. For men, scars meant nothing. Even if they obtained
any amount of scars on their body, they wouldn''t take it seriously. Scars could sometimes be regarded
as trophies on the battlefield. The more scars you had, the braver and stronger you would be
considered.
Harper understood the situation. Because of the operation, there was a big scar on Wendy''s chest. She
was afraid that since Wendy''s condition had gotten a lot better, she finally noticed the scar. It might be
a little hard for her to ept that.
"It''s not a big deal. Just ignore it," Harper said.
"But Physician Gore said that if she ripped the wound—"
"Rip the wound? Does she want to die?" Harper was surprised by then.
"I''m sorry. I didn''t know she would have such a reaction," Shawn said with a worried expression on his
face.
"In that case, I''m going to have a look," Harper calmly said. She wouldn''t mind giving Wendy a quick
death if she really wanted to die!
Watching Harper who was walking very quickly out of the room, Zack then turned to Shawn. The man
had a hopeless expression in his eyes, so Zack asked, "What''s going on? The person under Harper''s
treatment shouldn''t have any problem. What''s wrong with your sister?"
