Part of the reason why Samuel was able to run away was because the Qin Clan let him escape on purpose. They wanted to
know how much Felton meant to Harper so that they would know how to negotiate with her. With the way she worked, they knew
that only when they had sufficient chips could they move on with any kind of negotiation.
To the Qin Clan's surprise, even after receiving Samuel's message to save his master Felton, Harper didn't take any action.
Actually, they did the exact opposite: Harper and her husband hung out in the Phoenix City like a normal couple, as if Felton's
disappearance meant nothing to either of them.
"Does Harper not care about Felton at all?" Beth asked, shocked and bewildered. She had initially thought that as soon as
Harper heard that Felton was in trouble, she would immediately go to the Qin Clan's mansion to save him, a scenario which Beth
could take advantage of. With the way Harper was acting, it seemed like no negotiation would happen, and that she would let
Felton rot wherever he was.
"Little Harper," a voice called out as a figure draped in red cloak swooped down in front of Harper. This stunned Harper, and
Matthew had to pull her away so that she wouldn't get toppled by the unknown figure. Soon enough, they found out that it was
only Daphne, and she was intending on landing on Harper.
With Harper out of the way, Daphne almost landed on the ground. She quickly stood straight and glared at Matthew. "What the
hell are you doing, you stinky man?!"

Without even sparing Daphne a glance, Matthew took a handmade wooden hairpin from the stand in front of them, handed it to
Harper and said, "This is a beautiful one. Try it on." Harper obediently took the hairpin from Matthew's hand and looked at it
carefully. "This is very exquisite. Its craftsmanship is exceptional—a quality that is rare to see." Matthew nodded in agreement.
Daphne was being ignored by the couple, intending not to let her join in their own conversation. "You are going too far, little
Harper! You and your husband are bullying me!" she protested, pouting and donning a face contorted by frustration. With that,
Harper sighed deeply and turned to her, her stare indifferent. She said, "You deserve it. Why do you still do that when I have told
you many, many times not to do that! What if I wasn't able to catch you? You could hurt somebody else, you know!" "No, I won't. I

know what I am doing. I believe that you'll always be able to catch me," Daphne said, her previously sad face becoming joyful.
She leaned over to Harper and added in a low voice, "By the way, we've already uncovered clues about the Qin
Clan. My brother asked me to tell you that the clan is taking action now." "Yes, I already know that. Someone from the clan itself
came to our inn yesterday," Harper said in a calm tone. "The man said
that the head of the Qin Clan wanted to see me. He even told me to visit her obediently."
"Why is everyone in the Qin Clan so arrogant?" Daphne felt annoyed upon hearing what Harper said. Were the people of the Qin
family stupid or what? Did they forget that Harper was now Matthew's wife? Did they think that Matthew would not be able to do
anything to them since they were hiding in Phoenix City? It should be known that if they irritated him, his three hundred thousand
Black Flag Army soldiers would attack Phoenix City, and the city would have no choice but to hand them to Matthew in order to
not to go into unnecessary battles. "Arrogant..." Harper pondered on the word carefully. 'That's right. The Qin Clan is too

arrogant. Maybe the people of the clan thought that I am afraid of them because they are holding Felton hostage. That's why
they're acting so unscrupulously,' she thought. "Arrogance is good. It only means that they are capable," she outwardly
continued. "But I think that they're just a group of incompetent idiots," Daphne commented disdainfully. "We have found their
foothold. My brother was planning to tell you in person, but he didn't want to see the mean man that's always by your side, so he
sent me to
inform you."
"The foothold of the Qin Clan is not in the city, isn't it?" Harper guessed. Suddenly, she noticed a weird person staring at them in
the crowed. 'Beth!' she exclaimed inwardly the moment she recognized her. She then prepared herself for the incoming danger
as a sneer crept into the corners of her lips. On one hand, the Qin Clan wanted to deal with her; on the other hand, it also
wanted to take advantage of her. If she was still the isolated and helpless Harper in the Chu Clan's mansion, she might
surrender
to them easily, but she wasn't that girl anymore. .

Now that she found her own strength, and had a husband that would back her no matter what happened, she felt confident. If the
Qin Clan thought that they could deal with her easily, they were completely wrong. But what was keeping her more interested
was the identity of the person who instigated the Qin Clan. If no one instigated the leader of the clan, they would not dare trouble
her like this.
"Harper, did you hear me?" Daphne said, sounding a little annoyed when she noticed that Harper was not listening to her. "My
brother has found out something, but he is not sure about it yet. But he asked me to tell you to be careful."
Harper got out of her head and nodded, saying, "I'm sorry I got you into so much trouble."
"Indeed, you have brought us so much trouble!" Daphne said awkwardly. "But we're already used to it."
"Murderous auras all around," Matthew suddenly reminded and approached Harper to protect her. On the busy street, they
actually felt the murderous auras. Who were they? From the Qin Clan or other forces?
