As the guards arrived at Felix's mansion, they found that the mansion was completely deserted. The guards rummaged the
entire mansion, but found no one. Both Felix and his wife had disappeared, as if they had vanished into thin air.
"Where are they?" Ken asked in shock. "Where is Prince Felix?"
"General Ken, we have been guarding the mansion round-the-clock. No one has entered, or come out..." the head of the guards
said. He too was shocked to learn that the mansion was empty. Felix had committed serious crimes and was placed under house
arrest. Now that Felix had escaped under his watch, he would get punished for dereliction of duty.
"Search for Prince Felix! We have to find him by hook or by crook!" Ken ordered. He felt vexed. The emperor had changed a lot
in disposition recently. He had increasingly become crazy and bloodthirsty. If they were unsuccessful in finding Felix, Ken was
afraid that he too might get implicated and punished.
However, despite searching every nook and corner of the mansion and the surroundings around, they still couldn't find any trace
of Felix and his wife.
In the underground secret path, Howard looked at a disheveled Felix in a way as if he enjoyed great pleasure in seeing the latter
in such a miserable situation. With a faint smile at the corners of his mouth, he said, "If I hadn't come a little earlier, you would
have already been decapitated."
Casting a fierce glare at Howard, Felix said, "What is it you want this time? First, you helped Hoffman to fight against me, and
now you are here to rescue me. What on earth do you want?"

"Prince Felix, don't talk nonsense. At the time when I joined Prince Hoffman's camp, I was just following orders. Don't you
remember you were the one who ordered me to do that?" Howard sneered at him. "Well, I guess great wits have brief
memories." "Bullshit!" Felix cursed angrily. "I ordered you to join Hoffman's camp, but I didn't tell you to betray me!" "When I
joined Prince Hoffman's camp, I had to show my sincerity to him. I didn't know about a better way to show my sincerity other than
betraying you. Besides, though I betrayed you, I didn't cause any fatal harm to you. I also helped you to defeat Prince Hoffman,
didn't I?" Howard took the lead in walking forward. "Follow me closely, or you will get torn apart by His Majesty." "Howard, tell me.

Whom do you work for?" Felix realized that Howard had never really worked for him. He was a goal-oriented man, and had his
own reasons for doing things. He was very clear about his target, and wouldn't hesitate to do anything for achieving his goal.
"Well, you may guess whom I am working for," Howard said, as he turned around and gave a mysterious smile to Felix. Then his
sight fell on Felix's wife, who was also there along with Felix. Felix still didn't believe that the emperor had an affair with his wife.
After thinking for a moment, Felix laughed grimly and said, "You work for Matthew Jun!" "You're wrong. Matthew doesn't deserve
my loyalty!" Howard exclaimed coldly. "I have worked for only one person in my life."
"That's impossible. If not Matthew, who else in the imperial capital deserves your loyalty?" Felix didn't believe Howard's words. If
Howard was working for Jason or Francis, he wouldn't have come to his rescue. Instead, he would have killed him without
hesitation. So, Felix was sure that Howard didn't work for either Jason or Francis.
In the imperial capital, beside Matthew, the only one Howard could rely on was Lucas. However, Felix knew Lucas better than
anyone else. He was sure that Howard will not work for a person like Lucas.
"Who on earth do you work for?"

"The person I work for is really good at hiding. That's why you haven't figured about her identity," Howard said. He led the way
without turning his head back. He never bothered if Felix might use his chance to strike him from behind. That was because he
was sure that Felix wouldn't survive without his help. "Her?" Felix exclaimed in shock. "I didn't expect you would work for a
woman!" In the darkness, Howard's face couldn't be seen clearly, but a ghostly smile was on his face. He gave him a clue,
because he
deemed it was no more necessary to hide the person he was working for from Felix.
"Harper Chu!" Felix exclaimed in shock, though he could not believe what he himself said. "Have you forgotten that she
attempted to kill you?"
"So what?" Howard didn't care about that at all. "Hatred is also a kind of emotion. I'm loving it."
"You... You're crazy!" Felix said emotionally. "How could you surrender and serve a woman who made many attempts to kill you?

How could you lower yourself to such an abomination?"
"What? Lower myself?" Howard reflected it over. Did he really lack self-respect? The answer was no. What he wanted was to
appear in front of Harper, and he didn't care whether she disliked him or hated him. He wanted to make sure that she could
never get rid of him in her lifetime. "Maybe, I lower myself."
Looking at Howard's back, Felix pulled his wife to stagger behind him. "Are you rescuing me because Harper told you to do so?"
"She has her own reasons for rescuing you. Prince Felix, she wants you to give her something in return," Howard said, stopping
in his tracks all of a sudden. "You'll get time to think about it before we arrive at the exit."
Hearing that, Felix was stunned and his pupils shrank slightly. The only thing remaining with him that was worth coveting was the
spies he had trained over the years!
Felix's wife had been silent all the way. She had just lost her baby and was very weak at the moment. Earlier, Felix didn't leave
her behind and took her out of house arrest. She knew that was not because he wanted to save her. Instead, he wanted her to
confront the emperor, so he could find out the truth. It was not he who had sent her to the emperor, and neither did he believe
what she said. He believed that she had an affair with the emperor to create a blow to him..
