A few kisses were placed on her collar, exposing a large area of her skin. Tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes. Just as Harper was about to give up struggling, the doorbell suddenly rang. She looked in that direction and her hands and feet moved again.
Mason bit her neck and felt a sharp pain.
It rang twice before being extinguished. The door seemed to have been opened, and footsteps approached.
Harper was pressed into the water. He was drowned and flailing his limbs for help. Michael was so frightened that he stopped in his tracks the moment he entered. He was about to turn around and leave when he realized that something
was wrong.
“Ms. Sullivan… Is that you?”
The hand waved twice. Sensing that something was wrong, he rushed over and pulled Harper out. Her entire body was wet, and her clothes and hair were dripping with water droplets. She covered her collar in a sorry state. Michael was shocked and quickly took off his suit and handed it to her.
He turned around and was at a loss. “…Ms. Sullivan, are you alright?”
“I’m… fine. Hurry up and take a look at him.”
Harper put on his clothes and did not dare to stay for a second longer. He quickly ran out.
She returned to her room wet, and Isabella saw her panicked look.
It was as if this had never happened. Harper did not tell anyone and left Kazuko that night.A few days later, James was temporarily transferred out of the company. Only Liam knew that James was investigating Harper’s past three
years.
Without James by her side, Harper would often be attacked by gossip. Seeing that she was weak, the nanny at home would always give her a hard time.
Ava had scolded those people a few times.
Harper always said timidly, “It’s okay… It’s fine now.”
She really did not dare to ask for anything else.
Those people were right. Her surname was no longer Zhou, so she shouldn’t be treated like Ms. Walker.Every time this happened, Ava would secretly wipe his tears.
Harper wanted to persuade him, but his words were dry. “Ava, I’m fine…”
Ava forced a smile. Before he could speak, Ethan came back from outside with anger. He rushed in with strong arms

and grabbed Harper’s collar. He insulted him for no reason. “Are you cheap?”
He was thrown to the ground, and the old wound on his knee that had yet to recover was replaced by a new one.
Harper could not get up and was filled with grievance.

“Ethan, what are you doing?” Ava went over to protect Harper and pulled her up. “How is it? Does it hurt?“Ethan’s eyes darkened. Anger was mixed in his eyes and he could not suppress it. “I really thought that you would change af- ter admitting your mistake. You really know how to pretend. Even I was almost fooled by you.”
“Ethan, what are you talking about?”
Not only was Ava confused, but Harper also did not understand.
“Ask your good daughter what she’s done.”
Harper lowered his head in confusion. “I don’t have anything…”
“You drugged Mason and wanted to sleep with him. Wasn’t this done by you?” Ethan said in one breath, causing Ava to be stunned. Her eyes widened, and the surrounding nanny who passed by heard it. All of them pursed their lips and walked away. They might even scold her for being a b*tch in a corner. She was clearly the person who saved Mason. How did she drug him?
Ava tugged at Harper. “Harper, you didn’t do it, did you?”
“No… I didn’t.” Harper pursed his lips tightly to prevent his tears from falling. For the first time in so many days, he defended himself. “Ethan, I really didn’t…”
“Who’s your brother?” Ethan was infuriated. The veins on his forehead were twitching. “Mason said it himself. Is- abella saw it too. You’re stubborn and still want to quibble. Get lost and don’t live here anymore.”
In front of Ava, he couldn’t take it anymore. “Otherwise, I’ll definitely find an opportunity to kill you and make you apologize to Olivia!”
Outside the private residence. Harper paced around anxiously. Half an hour later, he followed her in. This place was dark and quiet. There was a whole hibiscus flower in the courtyard. This place used to be a rose.
Because Olivia said that she loved Fleur the most.
After that, the roses here were shoveled and replaced with hibiscus.
When Harper went up, Mason had just changed into a shirt. It was dark gray and matched his indifferent tempera- ment. He had his back turned, his shoulders were wide, and his legs were long. The light in front of the window re- vealed his shadow on the ground.
