Chapter 706
Harper sighed and said in a grave voice, “In order to escape from Eric, who had locked her up, Stella
jumped off the
building and broke her leg. If Alpha Knight hadn’t sent Andre over to take revenge, no one would have
found her lying in the bushes. She has been treated in the hospital for the past few months.”
Hearing this, Taya asked if Stella’s injury was serious, and Harper said, “She has recovered but might
face some minor problems walking. She would not be limping, but she won’t be able to wear high heels
ever again…”
Every time Taya saw Stella, the woman always looked radiant and confident in high heels. Now that
she was unable to wear them, it would be a blow to her self-confidence. “What about Eric? What
happened to that a*shole?”
Harper frowned and said, “The Sinclair pack is influential in the Wolverly Capital, so Andre could only
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbeat the s*it out of him. Anyway, Andre had avenged you and let him taste his
own medicine by breaking his ribs with a few kicks.”
When Harper finished, she lowered her gaze to hide the
complex emotions in her eyes.
The fact was that if Silas hadn’t stopped Andre, Eric would have suffered more than a few broken ribs.

However, since Taya had chosen to be with Griffon, she thought it was better not to mention Silas.
Having concealed it from Taya, Harper said through clenched teeth, “Don’t get upset, okay? Like you,
Stella has pulled it through and will be discharged from the hospital in a few days…”
Taya, however, was still very worried about Stella’s situation, “Eric hasn’t come to see her again, has
he?”
Harper shook her head, “The Sinclair pack disapproves of their relationship and has locked Eric up, so
he couldn’t come to Arcadia to harass Stella. Besides, Alpha Knight has sent bodyguards to protect
Stella. Even if Eric is freed, he won’t be able to get close to her.”
It was only then that Taya felt relieved, “Then I’ll visit her at the hospital tomorrow…”
Harper tried to dissuade her, “I’ve told Stella that I’ll pick her
up when she is discharged, so it’s best you go with me then. I’ll be worried if you go out all by yourself.”
Taya wanted to tell her that she would be fine, but thinking about what happened to her, she nodded,
“Okay.”
They chatted for a while, and when it was the lunchtime, the servants respectfully invited Harper to
enjoy the meal they had prepared.
Harper looked at the abundance of food spread out on the long dining table and clucked her tongue
twice, “So this is the lifestyle of a rich man’s wife, huh?”
Being teased, Taya palmed her forehead, “Cut that out.”
Harper still wanted to tease her, but she saw two tall figures emerging from the stairwell.
The man in front was extraordinarily handsome, and his demeanor was dignified and austere. The man
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmbehind was also good-looking.
The only difference was that the person in front had a more commanding presence and seemed like a
devoted lover, and the one at the back was obviously a playboy.
Harper saw the latter and lost interest in the meal, “Taya, I’m not joining you guys.”
Taya wanted to persuade her to stay for lunch, but Harper
insisted on taking a rain check.
“Then you must remember to pick me up when Stella is
ed, okay?”
Harper nodded, then took her purse and left. She did not even look at Preston when she passed him
by.
Gazing after the proud woman, Preston felt restless and decided not to stay for lunch as well.
