When they got back to Matthew's base outside the city, Felton had already woken up. As he still felt so weak, he decided to rest first, leaning against a soft cushion. However, as soon as he saw Harper come in, he immediately sat up straight.
"Lie down, you, and don't move too much. I don't want to be worried about you when I'm not around," Harper said as soon as she saw Felton.
Upon seeing Harper back, Patrick immediately ran to her, wanting to be in her arms. But thinking back to the time when it thought that she had thrown it away and left just like that, it decided to ignore her.
Harper immediately picked up on what Patrick was angry about and chuckled. Quickly, she lifted it up, sat down on a small stool by the bed, and gently rubbed its head. Patrick, previously angry, now looked blissful and enjoyed Harper and her company. "To further appease you, my friend, have this," Harper said, handing Patrick a pill. And with that, it had fully forgotten what it was angry about in the first place.
"How could you be so reckless? Really? Going to the Qin Clan's residence alone?" Felton said, sounding concerned. Though his voice was a little weak, the emotion behind his statement was potent. "The top elders were all there. Were you not scared of getting hurt? Worse, killed?"
Harper smiled and sighed deeply. "I just wanted to investigate the Qin Clan, Felton. Now that I found out that they had betrayed us a long time ago, I won't let them near you. Ever."
Felton's expression turned grim. While he was the clan's nominal young master, he knew nothing about that. Moreover, he had even allowed them to bring him back home, which almost ended up hurting Harper. For a moment, he didn't know what to say.
"I'm sorry. I made a grave mistake. I put you in danger."
Harper waved her hand to signal Felton to stop. She then said indifferently, "Stop. That doesn't really matter now. The Qin Clan has always regarded you as a pawn. I'm just relieved that you know it now. But I won't ask you to deal with them—you can't get involved. It's better if you stay on the sidelines."
"What are you going to do?" Felton asked, hesitating. He didn't want to merely become an onlooker, especially because everything was connected to him.
"I won't do anything rash. Don't worry. I just want to wait and see what they're going to do. Both you and Douglas are in my hands. However, I don't know if Lady Victoria still wants Douglas," replied Harper.
This surprised Felton. He wondered if the Qin Clan had been in total chaos ever since Harper suddenly came to their residence to take not only him but Douglas as well.
"Douglas..."
"You should rest now, Felton. Don't think about anything now, please. Focus on recovering for the moment." Harper flashed him a firm smile. "Leave everything to me."
"Harper..."
