The key clattered to the floor.
Her hair was pulled, and she fell to the ground. Her mouth was covered, and her body was dragged backward. She flailed her hands and feet, wanting to call for help, but no one could save her.
After taking two punches to the chin, Mason moved his joints and propped himself up on the edge of the table. There was blood on his fingertips. It was Ethan.
When Michael rushed in, he did not knock on the door. Coincidentally, he saw this scene and stopped at the door. “…Duan, Mr. Brooks.”
Mason landed two punches on his face and bled a little. Ethan was not any better. He sat at the side and wiped the blood from the corner of his lips. His tie flew to his shoulder.
“What’s wrong?” Mason was displeased and was about to explode.
“…No, I just sent Ms. Sullivan back,” Michael stuttered. In this atmosphere, it was really inappropriate to talk too much. “Ms. Sullivan’s key was thrown on the ground. I don’t know where he went.”
“What’s that got to do with me?““I was wondering… if Ms. Sullivan is in any danger.”
As soon as he finished speaking.
Ethan could not help but laugh. “What danger can she be in? I’m afraid she’s just acting.”
At the mention of this, his expression suddenly turned cold. He turned to look at Mason. “Take good care of Evelyn recently to prevent the past from repeating itself.”
The missing person was Harper, but their concern was Evelyn.
Mason did the same. He instructed Michael, “Get someone to guard this place well. Don’t let anyone else in.““But Ms. Sullivan…”
“Get out.”
Why would they care about Harper’s life? It was a good thing for them that she was dead.
Ethan stood up as well. “I’ll go take a look at Evelyn.”
“She does look a little like Olivia, but don’t treat her as a substitute,” Mason reminded kindly. “They’re completely different.”
Olivia was bright and lively, and Evelyn was plaintive and weak. These were two completely different people.
On the other hand, Harper seemed to be a combination of them.

Ethan stood up and tidied his collar. There was a smile on his face, but it was not very friendly. “You’re not the only one who knows Olivia. I gave Olivia to you back then. This time, you’re not qualified to compete with me.”
Mason’s face was as calm as water, but he did not say anything.
In their eyes, women were objects. Olivia was, and Evelyn was even more so.
Ethan walked out and Michael returned. He stood at the door with a timid expression. Mason looked sideways. “What’s wrong now?““Mr. Brooks…James is back.”
James walked for almost a month, he went to Walker family and went upstairs to meet Liam.
The study door was closed.
“… Mr. Walker, I don’t believe that Miss would do such a thing.”
Why would Harper drug Mason? Moreover, it was in the Fragrance Hall. Where did she get the medicine and how did she make Mason take it? These were all questions.
But no one would consider these questions.Liam would not risk offending Mason to keep Harper. “This matter is over. Don’t mention it again. What did you find out when you went over this time?”
James deliberated over his words and hid part of it. “… I found out that Miss’s biological father is a gambler. Most of the injuries on Miss’s body were caused by him losing a bet or getting drunk. All these years, he forced Miss to work and didn’t give her food. It’s considered abuse.”
Liam guessed all of this. “But this is the life she wants to live. She can’t blame anyone else.”
James gritted his teeth. Seeing Liam’s cold attitude, he swallowed the rest. “Where is Miss now? I want to look for her.”
“At this time, she might be working as a nanny in someone else’s house.”
“How could this be…““James.” Liam interrupted him. “Walker family raised her for so many years for nothing. She has no reason to ask for anything else.”
This was the truth.
He was also right.
However, there was no need to tell Liam what James had really found out. After all, he would not feel sorry for Harp-
er anymore.
Cold.
His bones and skin felt like they were stuck to ice.Harper was woken up by the cold. Strong light refracted into his eyeballs, and his pupils were burning. A bucket of cold water was poured over his head, and his clothes were drenched. He lay in the ice water of the bathtub and instantly sat up. His hair was lifted again.
“Look at our Ms. Walker. It’s really rare to see him like this.”
There were a few people standing in the bathroom.
