Chapter 892 A Ruthless Emperor (Part Two)
"I just lost my child, I don''t need rest!" Lilian wailed. The baby was her gateway to Rndo''s undying
love and loyalty, but now that it was gone, she knew that he would not pay attention to her anymore.
She saw all her hopes and dreams crumble before her very eyes.
"Lady Lilian, please don''t act this way. His Majesty is not heartless. I''m sure that he is now on his way
toe see you..." Miguel said.

A guard suddenly came in and reported in a hurried manner, "My Lord, please go and have a look at
His Majesty. He..."
"What''s wrong with him?" Miguel asked, standing up quickly.
"He is currently in a terrible situation, so is thatdy in the Harmony Pce," the guard said.
Miguel''s eyes widened. With this new development, he knew that he wouldn''t have the time and energy
tofort Lilian anymore, and so he stood up and strode away at once. Lilian wanted toe with
him, and so she tried to get up from her bed, even though she struggled badly. ''For a guard to rush to
Bliss Pce, Rndo must have been badly hurt! I need to see him; I need to make sure that he''s
okay!'' she thought.
When Miguel arrived at the Harmony Pce, he saw Rndo sitting on the floor and leaning against a
pir. His face was pale and he was drenched in sweat. This scene shocked Miguel, and so he
immediately tried to grab Rndo''s hand to feel his pulse. Rndo, however, pulled his hand away.
Miguel looked at Rndo in disbelief and said, "Your Majesty, you..."
Rndo did not say anything. Instead, he spat out a mouthful of blood. With every second that passed,
he looked paler and paler, making him look deathly fragile. While Miguel had known Rndo for a
significant amount of time, it seemed like he never knew him as much as he thought he did. First, even
though Rndo liked Harper, Miguel thought that he would still consider his life to be far more
important than what he felt towards her. With what was happening, he was proven wrong and he was
reminded of what kind of person Rndo was: he was someone who wouldn''t give up until he got
something, or someone, he liked. This time, he was set on getting Harper, one way or the other.
"Is it okay if Lady Harper stays in the room?" a voice asked. At a distance, Matthew and his men were
keeping a close eye on the Harmony Pce. While Matthew understood how serious the situation was
inside, he knew couldn''t do anything at that moment.
"She will be fine!" Matthew proimed coldly. There was no way he was going to let anything happen
to the love of his life.
Rndo''s condition was worsening as the seconds ticked by, and so Miguel decided that it was time to
seek assistance whether Rndo liked it or not. He was just about to call the imperial physician when
he felt a change in the air. "The barrier''s gone!" Rndo screamed.
He then rushed inside the room to see if Harper was doing all right. When he found that she had
fainted, he quickly took her in his arms and tried to wake her, saying, "Harper, Harper, wake up!
Anyone! Call the Physician Gary! Tell him toe quick! Now!"
Miguel immediately ordered one of the servants present to fetch the imperial physician and to bring him
there. Rndo, though still obviously weak, picked Harper up off of the floor andid her on the bed.
Forsythia brought some warm water and wiped Harper''s face with it, praying that she wake up soon.
But the panicked Rndo seemed to dislike how slow and gentle she was doing the task. After a while,
he snatched the towel off of Forsythia''s hands to do the chore himself.
With the way Rndo was ever-so-gently wiping Harper''s face with the wet towel, one would think that
he was taking care of an extremely precious treasure. Once again, Miguel was stunned as he watched
the scene unfold. While it was true that Rndo was kind to everyone, his tenderness was only
surface-level, even when he was with Lilian. But now, as he was taking care of Harper, his sincerity
was shining through, and his tenderness wasing directly from the bottom of his heart.
Miguel turned his head to the other side because he felt ufortable seeing Rndo in such a
vulnerable state. As he did that, he found the Heavenly Books lying on the table. This time, however,
they weren''t three separate volumes—they had already be one! Carefully he picked it up and
said, "Your Majesty, the book..."
Unfortunately, Rndo was not listening. All his attention was on Harper, and the way he was taking
care of her. This annoyed Miguel, and so instead of requesting Rndo toe see the book, he
decided to hand it to him instead, saying, "The missing part of the Heavenly Book has been revealed.
Now, you can have what you''ve always wanted!"
Rndo raised his head. Nonchntly, he looked Miguel in the eyes and simply said, "Really?"
"Rndo, get a grip of yourself! Let her go!" Miguel bellowed, finally losing his temper. He had been
trying to calm himself down, but it was thest straw for him. "She is, after all, Matthew''s wife!
Provoking him by trying to get with his wife won''t do us any good!"
Rndo had just finished cleaning Harper up and was now tucking her in bed. Patrick immediately ran
to the bedside, as if to guard Harper. Rndo gave it a cold look and then motioned Miguel to leave the
room. He needed a word with him in private.
Miguel went out, followed by Rndo. They stood face to face, but neither of them spoke. Miguel was
waiting for what Rndo was going to day, but it seemed like Rndo didn''t want to open the
conversation up.
Then, all of a sudden, Lilian appeared out of nowhere, breaking the silence. "Your Majesty, are you all
right?" she asked with concern coloring her voice.
She ran towards Rndo with the intention enclosing him in a tight hug but Rndo stopped her. With
what had happened between them, his attitude towards her changed drastically: from pretending to be
kind to her topletely being distant and indifferent to her. A sense of resentment was also palpable
in his aura.
Looking at Rndo''s face, Lilian couldn''t help but cry andugh at the same time. She thought that he
moved her to the Great Jade Kingdom because he loved her and was willing to make her his wife. It
turned out that she was just a pawn, a pawn to lure Harper there. She finally understood that Rndo
had taken advantage of her.
"Your Majesty, have you ever loved me, even a little?" Lilian asked. She asked that because she was
unwilling to ept the truth. There was no doubt in her mind how much she loved him, but why
couldn''t he be the same to her? It didn''t matter whether he was a monk or an emperor—she fell in love
with him the first time she met her, and she was willing to give him anything. She even courted him for
five years! Weren''t five years enough for him to love her, even a little? Just knowing that he had
learned to love her, even the littlest bit, after all this time would make her the happiest woman on earth.
But there was only indifference in Rndo''s eyes. If he had the ability to control whatever he was
feeling, he would have chosen to fall in love with her a long, long time ago. Unfortunately, that was not
how life worked. No matter what he or she did, he just did not love her. Even if another five years
passed, he wouldn''t have any kind of feelings for her.
"Lady Lilian, your body is still too weak. Please go back to the Bliss Pce and have a rest," Miguel
advised. He felt sorry for her. Lilian loved Rndo with her whole heart, yet thetter only loved Harper.
The greater irony was that Harper only loved Matthew.
Lilian shook her head and stared at Rndo stubbornly. She wanted to know the answer, even though
she actually already knew it deep in her heart. She wanted to hear it from Rndo himself. Otherwise,
she would not give up.
"No. Never," Rndo finally said. His tone was firm, cold, and distant. The only time he acted like a
human being with a range of feelings was whenever he was in front of Harper. When he faced other
people, he would watch hisposure and be the perfect emperor everyone wanted him to be: gentle
yet cool, elegant yet ruthless.
