Chapter 263 It'sEdward sneered, "Who do you think you are? Don't misunderstand that I know nothing. He doesn't love you at all. He likes Lauren. You were handpicked by Sir Martin. With your photos, you will be obedient to me. Otherwise, there will be consequences." Edward, as if in a frenzy, held up his cell phone to take pictures of Harper.
At the sight of this, Harper knew that he wasn't just joking or trying to scare her, but he really meant to do it. Despite Harper's relentless struggle, she found herself unable to withstand the combined strength of the two men. She could only scream repeatedly, "Edward, I'll call Benjamin. I'm willing to call and convince him." Edward snorted, "Didn't you say there was no way? I assyou want to play tricks." He didn't accept her offer, and Harper was even more panicked.
Her cell phone suddenly rang at that moment. Everyone's eyes were on the cell phone on the table. Edward leaned over, took a glance, and picked it up. "It's Mr. Martin calling. Unfortunately, he can't know that you are in my place for the tbeing." Then, he turned off the phone directly.

Glaring at the two men pulling her, she said, "You'd better not help Edward. I'm Benjamin's wife. Even without a crush on me, he won't let Edward off for the sake of the Martin family. If Benjamin doesn't care about me, Paul won't. And he lovesvery much. At the very least, I am still a member of the Mitchell family, and they will make you regret it." "Ouch!" Before Harper could finish her words, Edward tugged her hair! His force was nearly enough to rip her hair out. He gritted his teeth and said angrily, "Go ahead! I wonder what else you want to say!" It hurt so much that Harper felt dizzy.
Maybe the unbearable pain aroused extraordinary power. Somehow, Harper broke free from the hands that were holding her down. Then she pushed Edward hard, causing him to lose his balance and fall backward onto the table behind him.
Edward cursed, cup, and slapped Harper in the face! She was already giddy. The slap nearly caused her to black out. Before she could respond, Edward lunged at her and pinned her down, gripping her neck tightly with both hands.
For an instant, Harper feared today would be the day he'd strangle her to death. Oxygen-starved, her mind grew hazy as she slipped into unconsciousness. Instinctively her hands shielded her abdomen, Her final thoughts were to protect the baby within her womb.
At the last moment, Harper suddenly heard a scream.
All at once, her suffocation ceased as the hand around her neck disappeared.
Crawling on the floor, she kept coughing with tears in her eyes. When she smelled a familiar scent, a deep male voice slowly sounded. "Harper!" She was enveloped in a warm embrace. Tightly grasping the clothes on his chest, she whispered, "Benjamin?" "It's me. Don't be afraid. It's alright." After lifting her from the floor and putting her on the sofa, Benjamin quickly took off his coat and covered her with it. He said in a low voice, "Are you okay? Are you feeling unwell?" Harper shook her head, devoid of strength. Her cheeks and scalp were sore.

Staring at her face with finger marks, Benjamin narrowed his eyes slightly with a dark face. "Sit down and wait fortwo minutes, okay?" Harper nodded. Benjamin straightened and unbuttoned his shirt, his noble countenance now icy.
