Chapter 872 She Was Suspected (Part Two)
Rndo stood up and got out of the pool. Before he left, he turned to Harper and said, "You can stay
and continue to soak yourself in here. I will find the antidote."
"Rndo..." Harper called out. "We''re friends, aren''t we?"
Rndo didn''t answer her question, but instead, he just continued walking away. He didn''t want to be
just friends with her. In the beginning, it was true that he had actually wanted to be her friend, and at
the same time, to use her in unraveling the secrets of the Qin n. Now, hepletely understood his
feelings. So he couldn''t tell her that they were friends. What he wanted was to make Harper his
woman. A friendship with her would never suffice.

Rndo went straight to the Bliss Pce where Lilian was embroidering clothes for their unborn child.
She was aware of everything that had happened in the Harmony Pce. When the imperial physician
arrived there, Rndo left the pce with Harper in his arms. She was happy about everything, but
she was also a little worried so she couldn''t focus on her embroidery project. By ident, she pricked
her hand with the needle.
"Hiss!"
"Your Highness, are you alright?" Daisy asked in a rush.
Noticing some blood dripping from her fingertip, Lilian put down the embroidery pad and wiped her
fingers with a handkerchief. "I''m fine. It''s just a small wound."
But Daisy was still so worried and was about to get some medicines. But as soon as she turned
around, she saw Rndo standing by the door. She couldn''t see his expression because it was being
obscured by the door''s shadow, but she recognized him at first sight. At once, she respectfully greeted,
"Your Majesty."
Lilian stood up and bowed. "Your Majesty, what brings you here?"
Rndo stepped into the room and turned to Lilian with a cold stare. Daisy looked at Lilian with so
much anxiousness. Lilianmanded right away, "Daisy, you may leave now and close the door."
"Yes, Your Highness." Daisy left at once.
Rndo passed by Lilian and sat in the host''s seat. He stared at her with the same coldness in his
eyes, but he didn''t say anything. Lilian was very nervous, but the expression on her face looked so
calm. However, the hands hidden in her sleeves were trembling a little.
"I heard that something happened in the Harmony Pce. How is my aunt?"
Surprised by Rndo''s re, Lilian stepped back a little. She almost thought that he was going to kill
her. But thinking of her pregnancy and that she was the only woman by his side, she had a little more
courage.
"What exnation do you have for what happened today?" Rndo continued to re at her
ferociously. He was giving her a chance to confess everything that she had done. If she didn''t cherish
it, he would be extremely furious. He wouldn''t have a choice but to ruthlessly force her to reveal
everything.
With an innocent expression on her face, Lilian just casually said, "Your Majesty, I am sorry but I don''t
know what you''re talking about."
"Do you want me to tell you outright that I''m in love with Harper and you are just her substitute?"
Rndo said without a bit of remorse while looking at Lilian right into her eyes.
His tant words caused Lilian''s face to turn pale at once, but still, she forced a smile. "Your Majesty,
please don''t joke around. Harper is my uncle Matthew''s wife and the princess of the Bright Dynasty.
She''s a married woman."
"I don''t care." As he emphasized on his every word, rage and ferocity were evident in Rndo''s eyes.
"I''ll ask you onest time. What exnation do you have for what happened today?"
Lilian clenched her teeth and said, "Your Majesty, what do you want me to exin? Please tell me what
exactly you mean. I have no right to interfere if you do like Harper."
But Rndo suddenly approached her, stretched out his hands to grab her neck, and hissed in a low
voice, "Give me the antidote, or you''ll know how formidable I can be."
Lilian kept on trying to ease Rndo''s hold on her, but his grip on her neck was as tight as iron and
she couldn''t move it at all. His eyes were so cold and the impassive expression on his face told her that
he would really kill her if she didn''t do as he had demanded her.
A few seconds after, Lilian felt the air was being emptied from her lungs while her eyes were starting to
roll back into her skull. Terrified, she felt death was approaching. She now knew that Rndo really
wanted to kill her. A tear fell from the corner of her eye. The man she had loved for many years was
going to kill her because of another woman. Her love for him had turned out to be the biggest joke in
the world.
"Your Majesty!" Miguel''s voice was suddenly heard in the room. When he saw what was happening, he
hit Rndo''s numb acupoint. As a result, Rndo released his grasp on Lilian''s neck. The poor
woman was falling to the ground. Miguel quickly caught her mid-air to prevent her from touching the
ground. He then turned to Rndo and said, "Your Majesty, you went too far."
Rndo stoically looked at the two of them and said, "Lilian, if I don''t see any antidote within two hours,
I am going to feed you the poison. Don''t try my patience, or you won''t be able to bear the
consequences!"
"I don''t have the antidote that you''re talking about. You''d give up your own child for Harper''s sake?"
Lilian uttered with difficulty.
"My child?" Rndo responded with a sneer. Miguel''s heart missed a beat. Just as Rndo was about
to say something, Miguel interrupted, "Your Majesty, he has arrived at the pce. I''m afraid she''ll be
taken away if you don''t leave and stop him now."
Rndo turned to Miguel with a cold stare and waved his sleeve before finally leaving. He was going to
deal with Matthew first.
