Chapter 963 I Will Kill Him! (2/2)

She dared not continue to piss him off, regardless of w

e without Jacob. Woman's intuition told her that Harriet was not someone she could trust. Harriet was the one who had bullied her the most, after all.

”I have to leave with Jacob.”

Emily broke free from Harriet's grasp and took the opportunity to hide the map. She opened her eyes and glared at Harriet attentively.

”What are you talking about? You're going to be Seam's woman soon, and you're still thinking about your lover? If I were you, I would just get out of here with the map! You can get whichever man you want once you are out of here! Why bother caring about a half-dead man?”

Harriet could see that Jacob was also a powerful man, but certainly not as desirable as Seam. So although she was impressed by Jacob's handsome face and strong aura, she preferred Seamus, whom she knew everything about. Besides, Jacob might not survive the beating he had received.

Half-dead?

Harriet was blabbering on about a lot of things, but Emily only paid attention to what had happened to Jacob.

”What happened to him?”

Emily asked, grabbing Harriet's wrist and whispering with a voice filled with prayer and worry.

”I told you, I don't know. Leave now or those ladies will come and prepare you for your wedding!” It will really be too late by that time!

Before Harriet could say one more word, there was a hubbub from outside the room.

”Here they come!”

Harriet glared at Emily who had ruined her carefully-laid plan, and then hid inside the closet.
