"I came back to the Chu Clan to take my revenge against them," Harper interrupted. There was no trace of unease or guilt on her face. "But I underestimated my father's determination to kill me. If I hadn't asked my grandmother to come back as a precaution against him, he would have beaten me to death on the night I escaped from the execution."
