Chapter 682 I Will Never Take Your Life (Part One)
Sherry was shocked by Harper''s stern look. The former only knew that Francis was hurt, but she had
no idea how badly he was wounded. The reason why Sherry vexed Harper as soon as she came was
that she had to humble herselfst time when she begged Harper to help Francis.
"Somebody, take Lady Sherry back so she can rest," Jason decisively ordered. Since Sherry hadn''t
had a rival in the Imperial Pce for a long time, she was stupid enough to antagonize Harper. Such a
reckless act would not only put Francis'' life at risk, but also make Harper suspicious of her.
Sherry didn''t resist. She only red at Harper before turning away. Meanwhile, Harper looked at Jason
with aplex expression on her face. However, she didn''t say anything. Instead, she asked the
people from the Imperial Academy of Medicine to prepare all the medications and tools she needed.
She knew that Jason didn''t believe her, even though they had studied together and she had just
recovered her memory.
Then, Harper checked Francis'' injuries. Both of his wounds were deep and he was seriously injured.
But still, he was lucky because it was not fatal. However, she had to be extremely careful when pulling
out the hidden weapons because he could die from massive bleeding.
"Your Highness, Prince Francis'' wound is even more serious than Mister Zack''sst time. This arrow..."
All the imperial physicians didn''t dare toe forward for two reasons. One, Harper was extremely
skilled at treating physical injuries. And two, the one who had been wounded was Francis who was
most likely to ascend the throne. There was no room for mistakes or carelessness, unless they didn''t
want to live anymore.
Harper leisurely asked the servants to boil some medicine, and disinfected a sharp knife with liquor.
Jason didn''t steer away his eyes from her, not even for a second. He was afraid that she would stab
Francis in the throat and kill him.
"You know, it hurts me to see you looking at me like that." Harper nced at Jason when she was
about to take out the hidden weapon from Francis.
Even though it wasn''t obvious, Harper was actually a little worried about the procedure. She took out a
white porcin bottle from her brocade bag and looked at Jason. "It''s up to you whether I can give him
this medicine or not."
Jason took the bottle, opened it, and tried to see its contents. He was familiar with the smell. It was the
Blood-generating Pill that Harper had made using methods she was yet to disclose. The pill could
quickly replenish the blood which had been lost of an injured person. It would be very useful for Francis
at that moment.
"How many are you going to give him?"
"Three. After that, I might give him more depending on his condition." Harper''s voice was indifferent,
revealing not a single emotion. The expression on her face was as cold as ice. Her earlier confusion
had disappeared and the calm and collected Harper hade back.
Jason immediately took three pills and helped Francis take them. After seeing that, Harper took out the
hidden weapon from Francis. Her hands were steady, without a trace of quivering. All the imperial
physicians held their breaths for fear that their heavy breathing might affect Harper. One wrong move
or one tremble of her hand could easily take Francis'' life.

Despite the gravity of the situation, the process of taking out the hidden weapons went smoothly.
Francis, though he had lost a lot of blood, was stable with Harper''s Blood-generating Pills. After she
closed down the wounds with some fabric, Harper immediately wrote a prescription, then ordered
someone to get some medicine and decoct it.
Jason folded his arms across his chest and stared at Harper curiously. "If my brother were not injured
because of protecting you, would you save him?"
Harper reached out her hand to Jason and said, "Give me the medicine bottle."
Jason raised his eyebrows and threw the bottle to Harper. She took it, opened the cap, checked the
inside, and carefully put it away. "I will save him. But I won''t be willing to just give out my pills like that.
After all, there is only one left."
Her response made Jason quite annoyed. "Is a pill more important than a human''s life? When did you
be so cruel, woman?"
Harper turned to face him and apathetically asked, "How about you? When did you be so
affectionate? You''re by his side all the time. You''re so cautious too. I have to start suspecting that
someone may be hiding in the closet."
The expression on Jason''s face became distorted. Then, he furiously grabbed Harper by the cor.
"Woman, don''t challenge my bottom line. Do you understand? Ah..."
Jason loosened his grip and violently shook his hand. It was hurting so much that his face turned red.
He was even trying very hard not to cry out loud. "What did you do to me?"
"Didn''t our master tell you that the more beautiful a woman is, the more dangerous she is?" Harper
then turned to a eunuch andmanded, "Serve some tea."
Amidst his trembling, the young eunuch put the tea onto the table. Then, he quickly kept a distance
from her for fear that she might hurt him. "I once heard from you that I am a poisonous rose with thorns
since I was a child. How can you forget about it now?"
Jason squinted his eyes in confusion. Thest time he had seen Harper, she was obviously confused
as he imed to be her senior fellow brother when he showed up from nowhere. "You..." Jason tried to
speak but he couldn''t form more than a word.
"It''s a blessing that I have unexpectedly recovered some memories when Prince Francis blocked the
hidden weapons for me." Harper''s voice was very light while she slightly lowered her head. The teacup
was steaming and her expression couldn''t be seen clearly because of the mist.
Jason finally understood why he felt that Harper was like apletely different person. It turned out
that she was the same person but had lost some of her memories. For some reason, those lost
memories had been rted to him and Francis.
