Chapter 230:


    The Harrison family had always held significant power, quelling rebellions for the king andmanding respect throughout the pce. People usually bowed before me, and I had never suffered such humiliation!


    And it was all because of Makenna! Ever since she set foot in this pce, I’d been gued by misfortune, losing face again and again!


    That wretched woman!


    My fury reached a boiling point, and I was about to kick Molly again when a voice cut through the air.


    “Miss Harrison certainly has a fiery temper, doesn’t she?”


    I spun around, stunned to see Makenna, that insufferable bitch, standing there with her ever-annoying friend Alice.


    Seeing them made my blood run cold with fury. How dare Makenna show her face before me! Did she not realize I could skin her alive right here?


    I bellowed at Makenna, “You wretched bitch! How dare you show up here! Do you think I won’t kill you on the spot?”


    But Makenna stood unfazed by my threats. She remained as calm as ever, a serene smile on her face, as if she were the queen of the pce and I was nothing more than a cornered animal.


    I couldn’t help but recall the timid, lowly girl she had been when she first entered the pce. How had she transformed into this?


    When did she be someone even I had to be cautious around?


    “Why are you so angry, Miss Harrison?” she asked, her voice smooth, almost soothing, with that irritating smile never leaving her lips. “You must be dealing with a rather vexing issue, yes?”


    Her tone was calm, but I could hear the mocking undertone.


    L?t?st chαpt?rs ιn g??l??ovе???.????


    She hade here to mock me, the wretched bitch! My rage nearly blinded me, and I lunged at her, ready to strike.


    But Makenna didn’t flinch. Her expression remained unchanged, that infuriating smile still ying on her lips.


    She simply reminded me, her voice steady, “Miss Harrison, the king is likely very angry right now, isn’t he? If you cause any more trouble, do you think he might be even angrier?”


    I froze mid-charge, my fury still simmering as I red daggers at her.


    Wretched bitch! I wanted nothing more than to end her life right then and there!


    Makenna’s POV:


    Kristina stopped abruptly in front of me, her eyes burning with an intense hatred that could have cut through me like an invisible de.


    Yet, despite the fury smoldering in her gaze, she dared not hurl insults as she once had.


    “Miss Harrison, take care of yourself,” I said, a faint smile ying on my lips, before turning away with Alice. But we hadn’t walked far when Molly’s scream pierced the air behind us.


    I frowned, ncing back to see Kristina once again venting her anger on Molly, striking her while hurling curses.


    I considered intervening but chose to ignore it. There was something unsettling about Molly—despite the beating, her eyes were locked onto me. From a distance, I couldn’t quite make out her expression, but her gaze was intense and unwavering.


    A strange feeling gnawed at me. Was Molly as simple and submissive as she appeared?
