Harper curiously asked, "Who do you want me to put in your place? Are you thinking about Owen? He looks like a pushover who
can be bullied easily. If two weaklings are painted together, my work won't look good. So, you are already the perfect choice!"
"Are you really my junior fellow?"
"Nope!" Harper denied decisively without any hesitation. She then thought to herself, 'If you stop me from drawing more pictures,
I won't recognize you as my senior fellow!'
Jason sighed in defeat and thought, 'It's not true anyway. If Harper wants to draw something fictional, then I guess she can do it.
I'll just pretend that I enjoy the vintage erotica art. However, the main characters in her sensual works are not a man or a woman,
but two men. Moreover, if I ignore the fact that the protagonist in the pictures is me, her works actually are quite interesting.'
Meanwhile, Anabel was too overwhelmed to say a word while she was watching them. What Harper and Jason had been
discussing actually changed her view of the world. Yet, she didn't expect that Jason would have given up protesting so soon. In
the beginning, he had been so furious that he even grabbed Harper's wrist to stop her from drawing. Now, he was discussing
with Harper about the details of the pictures. 'Prince Jason, what happened to your dignity?' she thought to herself.
While Harper continued to paint her pieces one by one, Jason carefully looked at them one after the other. When Harper finished
the last one, she shook her aching arm and said to Jason, "Massage it for me."
"Okay." Jason put down the picture in his hand at once. He then started to massage her arm while looking at the last picture.
"Harper, don't you think that position is a little difficult?"

"Oh, it's not a problem at all. You all have practiced martial arts, so your bodies are flexible. You wouldn't have any trouble. If you
don't believe it, you can go and try it with Francis," Harper said with a hint of mischief. Jason glared at Harper and asked, "Are
you trying to kill me? Are these pictures really for me?" "I especially drew them for you. Keep them well. Maybe one day you will
have a chance to use them." Although Harper's tone sounded serious, what she said did not have a thread of seriousness.
Jason murmured, "You can easily confuse people with that face of yours, you know." Harper did not become upset with his.

words. When she noticed that Jason was still so focused on the pictures, she casually asked, "Do you know about the divorce
agreement?"
"You mean the divorce agreement between you and Uncle Matthew?" When he saw that Harper nodded, he said, "Francis
ordered the servants to write down 10, 000 copies and have them posted all over the imperial capital, every city, and county. I
guess everyone in the Bright Dynasty knew that you got divorced with Uncle Matthew." Wham! The lid on Harper's hand violently
dropped on the teacup, making a jarring sound which was heard throughout the room. "Do you mean all of the people in the
Bright Dynasty know that Francis had the intention of taking his uncle's wife for his own?" Jason's arm became stiff. He turned
around, looked at Harper seriously, and said, "From what we all know, you have been
divorced. You have nothing to do with Uncle Matthew now. So it won't be a problem if Francis is to marry you. People will only
gossip and castigate you. They will criticize you for getting married twice, but that's insignificant."
Harper was so irritated that she burst into laughter. What mistake did she make? Why had she been made a scapegoat for
Francis' evil intentions? Francis wanted to rob her of Matthew. It was all the robber's fault. Why was she going to be blamed for
being desired? Francis took the throne for himself as well. Should the throne also be blamed for being too tempting?

"What if I don't want to marry him?" Harper asked slowly and firmly. 'No one can force me to do anything if I don't want to do it, '
she thought. Jason sighed. "Harper, you're not alone in this. Remember, Gianna is in the imperial capital now and you have a
few maids around you. Meanwhile, Alexander is still in the River City. So are you sure you don't want to marry him? I know
Francis seems gentle, but he's actually very stubborn. No one can change his mind, once he decides on something." Harper
didn't respond to him. Although she had her fair share of weaknesses which was the people she treasured the most, she
wouldn't allow anyone to use them in threatening her. If Francis dared to mess with her, then she would resist him at all costs!
Harper's tone was cold when she finally spoke. "Jason, we have known each other for years, so you should know the kind of
person I am. No one can force me to do something I don't want to. If Francis even dares to do so, he should know the
consequences. He'd better think twice if he's ready for its implications."

"Harper, Francis is not a cruel person..."
Harper sneered. "Francis viciously forged the divorce agreement, stole the token of love between me and Matthew, and spread
the fake agreement all over the country. Isn't that cruel? Not only that, he even made me a promiscuous woman, a disgrace to
this empire and its people. But still, you're saying that he's not a cruel person? Then, please tell me, what is a 'cruel person' to
you? Does 'cruel' in your dictionary only mean that the death of tens of thousands of people, which makes blood flow in river
banks where water is supposed to be?!"
"Harper, I didn't mean that. I mean, he doesn't mean to hurt you."
Harper responded sharply, "But the only thing I can feel right now is that he definitely wants to hurt me! When we were both at
the mountain for study, I promised you that I'm going to diagnose Francis. Now that I have fulfilled my promise, we're even. As
for what I'm going to do next, I can't control it. But don't worry; I won't kill you."
Jason looked right into Harper's eyes. He didn't see any trace of humor on her face, so he was certain that she couldn't be more
serious this time. Francis had been so stubborn that it pushed Harper to her limits. The hostages in Francis' hands couldn't
restrain Harper. Instead, holding those she cared so much as the hostages only made her even more furious and resist more
violently!
