I Didn't Mean to Harm Her Malcolm looked at Bianca's indifferent expression, feeling a tightness in his chest. Anger burned within him, but then Bianca said, "There's no peace between us. Give up on that idea!" Right, there was no peace to be found! Their beginning was a mistake, and all the repercussions that followed were his own fault! "Bianca!" His voice grew heavy.

Finally, Bianca had had enough. She flung the soup pot in Malcolm's direction. If he hadn't dodged in time, he'd probably end up in the hospital again. Even though he avoided it, he still felt the heat, and his complexion darkened.

"Are you trying to kill me?!" Malcolm glared at her viciously.

"If I could, I'd end you myself!" Bianca's words were sharp, filled with determination and her trademark coldness.

Seeing Bianca like this, Malcolm understood the concept of hopelessness in an instant. Back in the family, he could get whatever he wanted easily, even if it required some effort.

But now, Bianca's prideful nature made him realize just how hopeless things were.

"Bianca!" Through gritted teeth, he spoke. When had he ever had to humble himself like this before a woman? Yet this damned woman seemed oblivious to his efforts.

"Bianca!" he practically spat the words.

His tone was now devoid of any warmth.

Seeing Bianca like this, Malcolm wanted nothing more than to tear her apart.

Finally, he stormed out, fuming. He returned to the neighboring house in a mess.

Horatio was alarmed when he saw Malcolm's disheveled state. "Lord Malcolm, what happened?" "That damned woman!" Malcolm slammed his soup-splattered coat onto I the sofa, seething with rage. Seeing Malcolm like this, Horatio knew things must have escalated between the two.

"What's going on?" Horatio approached cautiously.
