Chapter 942 You Are Just An Outsider (Part One)
Harper''s sudden appearance surprised everyone in the Qin n. Their shock, however, exponentially
increased when they saw her riding beast: none other than the Holy Beast. It looked like as if their
faces were drained of blood as it was the first time it was made known to them that she was actually
able to tame the mythical animal.
"Your Highness, wee. I am sorry that I wasn''t able toe to greet you personally," Victoria said
apologetically as looked up at Harper, who was on the roof of her house. With a polite tone, she
continued, "But, Your Highness, I am just wondering: why did you break into our house in the middle of
the night?"
"Break into your house?" Harper sounded surprised and confused. "Don''t you remember? You invited
me here!"
Victoria''s face turned cold and grim. She almost forgot the fact that she sent Beth to invite Harper, but
the prince turned down Beth and even drove her out. ''But isn''t it way toote? Why would she visit us
in the middle of the night?'' she thought, her brows knitted. She couldn''t help but think that the princess
had malicious intentions against them.
"I see. But Your Highness, even though we have invited you, you should follow the rules. Don''t you
think it''s rather impolite for you to break into our house at midnight and desetroy our yard in the
process?" As the head of the n, Victoria knew she had to be the one doing this confrontation. "Or do
you think that you and your husband are so influential that you can just do whatever you want?"
"You are right. I really think I can do whatever I want," Harper calmly said, a soft smile forming on her
lips. "Since your n does whatever it wants, I think it''s just fair that you all let me do whatever I want.
It would be hypocritical if you don''t, methinks."
"Your Highness, what do you mean?" Victoria replied.
"Don''t y dumb, Victoria. I know you know what I mean," Harper said. In front of everyone, she
unbuttoned Felton''s clothes and started performing the appropriate acupuncture treatment for him. "If
something bad happens to this man, I swear to God, Victoria, I will make sure every member of your
n pays," she said calmly.
"What an arrogant thing to say!" Victoria responded furiously, already losing her cool. "Have you
forgotten? You''re a part of this n!"
"I don''t think my surname reflects that," Harper replied, not even looking up from what she was doing.
"Your mother bore the surname, child!" Victoria responded firmly. "Felton is a part of the Qin n. We
decide whether he lives or dies. An outsider like you do not have any say on that matter!"
"So now I''m just an outsider, with no say in any decisions made by this n." Harper continued treating
Felton without looking up. She was so absorbed with what she was doing, as if no one else was
present. "You all think I''m an outsider. How can I view myself as part of the Qin n?"
Victoria''s face darkened. "Your Highness, please don''t say such things."
Harper stopped talking to her and concentrated on curing Felton. If anyone tried to even approach her,
the Holy Beast, Patrick, would at once attack him or her.
"Mother, Dous was kidnapped!" Beth cried out as she rushed out of the room. There were wounds
all over her body. The moment she quieted down, a figure suddenly appeared beside Harper,
seemingly carrying a young man who was in aa. This figure turned out to be Matthew.
"What the hell are you trying to do?" Victoria asked as her facepletely became stone cold. The Qin
n only had two grandsons. The elder grandson was Felton, who was born weak and was expected
to have a rather short lifespan; the younger one was Dous who was in good health. Now, if
something bad happened to Dous, the Qin n would essentially lose their only heir.
"Oh please. We''re not ''trying to do anything''. But let me tell you this: remember what you did that one
day? This is just an equivalent. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, as they say," Matthew replied
nonchntly. He then shoved Dous'' body to the side, with Dous not reacting at all. Victoria was
very worried about her grandson—with him being in hostage, she couldn''t order their top ten elders to
besiege them.
What was worse was Harper wasn''t showing any kind of weak point. The chief elder could not
approach her, let alone take action against her. Victoria''s eyes then swept across the area quickly,
looking at everyone present and noting that the appearance of the Holy Beast was indeed extremely
disadvantageous for them now. And given how skilled Matthew in martial arts, he would definitely be
there if Harper needed any kind of help or protection. If anyone made the wrong move against his wife,
Victoria was sure that he would immediately slit his hostage''s throat.
"Your Highnesses, if you don''t mind, we can sit down and have a good talk. After all, the Qin n is
also your mother''s family. It has helped you a lot over the years," Victoria proposed humbly as she
forced herself to calm down. She had to handle the situation carefully.

Matthew stood still and said nothing, while Harper took pains to rescue Felton. At that time, Felton was
in poor health and looked like a fragile porcin doll that could be broken at any time. Harper didn''t
dare to be careless and put all her attention to save her cousin.
As for Matthew, he was like a god, standing beside Harper to protect her. From time to time, he poked
at Patrick. Thetter was dissatisfied with what he did, but it didn''t dare to move for fear that any slight
movement would affect Harper. It just red at Matthew furiously and posed a threat silently.
"Is that the Holy Beast?" the second elder of the Qin n asked, trembling.
Victoria knew the situation was unfavorable to her and her n. Then, she said, "I don''t think so. The
Holy Beast has disappeared for so many years. That one can''t be the Holy Beast. Moreover, the Holy
Beast is responsible for guarding people of our Qin n. It''s impossible for it to attack any of our
people."
