?Chapter 532:


    Hearing the malice in his voice, everything clicked. He’d targeted me on purpose.


    “You did it deliberately, didn’t you?” I asked, my voice cold. “Who are you?”


    The man’s smirk deepened, his tone dripping with arrogance.


    “I’m Antoni Harrison, son of the Beta. As for the apple, that was purely idental. I was aiming for some unruly servant and, well… missed.”


    Makenna’s POV:


    The man standing before me was Antoni.


    I stared at him, not believing a word he had said.


    He had done it on purpose.


    As Antoni exined, his eyes were fixed on me. There was malice directed toward me in his gaze.


    I, however, showed no fear and didn’t respond to his exnation.


    We stood there in a silent confrontation as the air thickened with palpable tension. I could feel Antoni’s intimidating aura even across the distance.


    Antoni then looked away and viciously kicked the servant beside him. “What are you standing there for, you loser?” he asked.


    The kick had so much force that the servant fell to the ground with a thud.


    “You wretched nuisance! Apologize to Miss Dunn right now!” Antoni shouted at the servant whoy groaning in pain on the ground. The servant struggled to her knees and said, “I’m sorry, Miss Dunn. Please forgive me! Mr. Harrison almost harmed you because of my mistake.”


    The servant’s blood dripped to the ground as she stayed on her knees. “Get up,” I said to the servant.


    Antoni, however, smiled coldly and said, “You need not show her any mercy, Miss Dunn. She’s getting her just deserts.”

    “Enough!” said a cold voice behind me as I was about to offer an angry retort to Antoni. I turned to see Bryan.


    Why was he here?


    Bryan, upon reaching me, immediately pulled me behind him. A terrifying look on his face, he asked, “What are you doing, Antoni?”


    “I was just punishing this servant, Your Highness,” Antoni replied. His smug look seemed to have been reced with one of reverence. Antoni pointed at the servant who was still kneeling and said, “This servant almost caused me to offend Miss Dunn, Your Highness.”


    “Take your servant and leave. If you scare my woman again, I won’t let you off so lightly,” Bryan said coldly.


    “I’m sorry, Your Highness. I’m sorry, Miss Dunn,” Antoni apologized once more. But I couldn’t see any hint of sincerity in his eyes. He then kicked the servant again before dragging her away.


    Before leaving, Antoni gave me a bone-chilling look.


    The look was like that of a viper about to strike. It sent shivers down my spine.


    This made me certain that Antoni harbored some deep hostility toward me.


    When Antoni was gone, Bryan turned to me with a reproachful look on his face and said, “You’re pregnant now. You should be at home, not wandering around. What if something bad had happened to you?”


    Irritably, I replied, “Pregnant women should walk more. It’s good for childbirth.”


    “You…” Bryan stuttered. Finally, he shook his head and said, “Fine. I won’t argue with you. I’ll take you home now.”
