Time Travelling: My Love from the Royal Family

After Felix refused to help Howard, Harrison disappeared. That in turn made Felix worry that Harrison might do something that would go against his own interests. He wanted to force Harrison out of the imperial capital. However, he'd searched almost the entire imperial capital but found no trace of Harrison. That, in turn, made him a little uneasy.

It was almost time for Howard's beheading, yet, it seemed that Harrison wasn't making any moves to save him and nothing unusual was heard from the prison that Howard was kept in. Felix believed that Harrison might have already given up on saving Howard after weighing the pros and cons. But he wouldn't be able to relax until he personally saw Howard beheaded.

Actually, the man set to be beheaded was just another prisoner. Howard, on the other hand, had been tied in a jute bag and delivered to Harrison, who'd been waiting at the suburb of the capital. Seeing that Howard was fine, Harrison was relieved and heaved a big sigh.

He turned to Howard and said, "Now that you are out, let's go to the south domain."

"I never said that I wanted to go there," Howard answered, massaging his aching wrists which had been tied for quite a long time. "I have something else to do."

"Howard." Howard stopped in his tracks at Harrison's tone. "Prince Hoffman has put a lot of effort into saving you this time around. If you go back to the imperial capital, all he'd done will be in vain. Don't you think so?"

"Marquis Harrison, did you say that Prince Hoffman was the one to save me? How is that possible?" Howard asked coldly.

"Why can't it be possible? You are Prince Hoffman's cousin!" Harrison frowned deeply. "I came to the im

his sudden lashing out. She frowned and looked at him. He was using her to vent out all of his anger. "You liked to stay with me when you were a child, and you liked playing with me most. Everything changed after I had been in the frontier three years and come back!"

Harper vaguely remembered her relationship with Howard before he'd left. But he'd broken into her bedroom as soon as he'd returned, making it hard to remember the past they'd shared. She only remembered that he was Hailey's twin, which meant that they were enemies.

"I never changed. It's you who changed!" Without any hesitation, Harper stabbed the dagger she'd hidden in her sleeve into Howard's chest. She'd aimed it a little distance from his vital part, his heart. Still, the stab seemed to at least cause some damage.

Howard lowered his head and stared at the dagger piercing into his chest. Blood gushed out from the corner of his mouth, mixed with unspeakable sadness. He stared at Harper, wanting to catch the new cruelty she'd acquired.

"You killed Grandma and even destroyed her body. This stab was for her. From now on, we are done with each other." Harper released her hand but didn't pull the dagger out. "Don't worry. Since I've promised to spare your life, I won't kill you. I hurt you as I still want revenge for Grandma's death. From now on, you should behave yourself."

After that, Harper turned around and left without hesitation. Howard stumbled and fell to the ground. Watching Harper's receding back, he struggled to stand up, but failed with great frustration.

He lay on the ground, laughing silently. It turned out that there was no one in the world who actually cared about him.
