Dimas's lips curled coldly, and the air instantly froze.Rio felt like Jasper was hopeless. He couldn't differentiate between good and bad, and he spoke without thinking. Who else would get beaten if not him?Dimas took a few steps forward, getting closer to Jasper.Jasper hadn't realized the situation yet and stammered, “D-Dimas, did I say something wrong?”“No, I just want to shake your hand.”“Oh, okay!” Jasper reached out his hand and put it in Dimas's hand.The next second—“Ahhh! Dimas, please spare me!”Rio covered his eyes but peeked through his fingers. He saw Jasper being thrown onto the single sofa that was aside. The sofa shook a few times, and he ended up on the floor.After being handled by Dimas, Jasper finally behaved.Dimas pulled him up and pressed him onto the sofa.“I can't go to Snow Manor, but you can. Do you understand what I mean?”This was a rule set by their mother. He couldn't disrespect her, but there was no rule against him finding a loophole.
The driver and the woman nodded repeatedly, and the car doors opened. They quickly got out of the car.Harmonia sat in the driver's seat and immediately stepped on the gas, speeding away.The driver and the woman watched as the luxurious car disappeared in three seconds.Was that a racing car?! That was too fast!The two looked at each other and were speechless as they were too shocked to say anything.Suddenly, footsteps sounded. Rio had already arrived with the bodyguards.“The two of you know me, right?”The driver and the woman were taken aback and nodded hastily.Who didn't know Rio? He was Dimas’ bodyguard! How could they not know?“Come with me, then. His Highness, the Fourth Prince, wants to have a chat with you.”The two could only lower their heads and leave with Rio.-Harmonia drove toward the dance studio, following the routes described by the driver. She didn't hesitate at all with every turn. It was clearly her first time here, yet the road felt familiar, a
She looked extremely anxious as she spoke. “She…”Jenell was about to speak, but Harmonia arrived at this moment.Snowflakes fell from her hair, and her fair cheeks were tinged with red from the cold. She looked stunningly beautiful and graceful.“The road outside is slippery. I went to the car to get something for the Queen, so I was delayed a little.”As Harmonia spoke, her eyes sparkled.Nara was visibly panicked. Her earlier words were meant to criticize Harmonia and guide Jenell to blame her. But now, she said that she actually went to get something for Jenell?! She wasn't late at all! Wasn't she just slapping herself in the face?!Nara was so angry she almost fainted. She was thinking about how to smooth things over, but Harmonia had already taken the initiative to do so.“Nara, I'm really sorry to keep you waiting for so long. I'm new here, and I’m not familiar with the place. I'm also a novice driver. The snowy road is slippery, and it’s not convenient to drive as vis
Nara was completely dumbfounded. Where exactly had this woman come from?Dimas hugged her with one arm and gently stroked her head with the other.“You’d be adding to your mistakes? Who dares to say you're wrong? Who dares to say you're adding to your mistakes?” His deep voice was so authoritative, and when he said this, he was looking directly at Nara.Nara hurriedly shook her head, “It wasn't me! I didn't say she was wrong, Dimi, I really didn’t!” Dimas sneered, “You’d better not.” Enough said. One would take desperate measures if really pushed to a dead end. Jenell immediately spoke up to smooth things over, “Alright, it's all just a misunderstanding. Over the next three months, Harmonia and Nara will train and be assessed together. You should help each other.” After Jenell intervened, the matter was resolved.Nara heaved a sigh of relief and quickly tried to act amicable as she said, “Harmonia and I will definitely help each other. You can rest assured.” “Thank you,
He chuckled and held her hand with both hands. When Harmonia saw her own hand being held, she intentionally looked at Nara and continued to express concern, “Nara, if you're feeling cold, remember to wear more clothes.”Nara was infuriated and felt like exploding. Her expression was already unpleasant, and now, her face looked like it was almost contorted, but she still had to maintain the most basic smile.She was an elegant young lady, and she absolutely could not lose her composure!He curled his lips and asked, “Is the temperature okay?”“Mm-hmm, it’s fine.”“Can I get a five-star rating?” A hint of mischief flashed in his eyes.Harmonia was dumbfounded. Wasn’t the act almost over at this point? Why was he still asking for a five-star rating?“How do I give one?” She asked, puzzled.His eyes deepened, and he laughed faintly as he held her hand and raised it, planting a kiss on the back of her hand.This was a smooth move! Harmonia was completely taken aback as she widene
However, she felt an elbow striking her, causing her short stature to stumble several steps back before she could push Harmonia against the wall. Mrs. Fanny’s abdomen hurt, and she felt as if her stomach acid was about to erupt. She did not expect Harmonia to react quickly and make such a sudden move. Nara hurriedly urged, “Mrs. Fanny, don't just stand there! Hurry up and help me pin this woman down!”Mrs. Fanny snapped out of it and immediately prepared to charge forward, but the next second, two shiny pistols appeared.One was aimed at Nara, and the other at Mrs. Fanny. Nara was utterly dumbfounded. Mrs. Fanny also froze in place and was afraid to advance. Harmonia looked at them, recalling the driver and woman who had taken her on a detour earlier. She finally understood why Dimi had deliberately put two small pistols in her pocket before she left. He had anticipated that things wouldn't go smoothly for her.This was the second time the pistols were being used! “Are
Mrs. Fanny nodded in understanding and quickly acted according to Nara’s instructions as she took out a signal jammer from her bag and placed it at the door of the single dressing room.Nara felt a rush of excitement and secretly rejoiced when she saw this. ‘Harmonia, aren't you very capable?’After that, Nara grabbed her dance outfit and headed outside.Mrs. Fanny hurried to catch up with her and said, “Miss, aren't you going to try it on?”“What's there to try on?”“If the size doesn't fit, we can still change it now. Once we're at Snow Manor and training starts, we won't be able to change it anymore.”“Pfft.” Nara looked disdainful. “I'll change it whenever I want. Who can stop the Kenwoods?”Mrs. Fanny thought for a moment and agreed as she smiled and said, “I may have been overly concerned. Master must have already made arrangements for Snow Manor.”Nara smirked proudly.She looked at Helena, who was preparing dance materials, and spoke up, “Miss Zane, my father has alr
“Shh!” Jasper made a gesture at her, telling her to shut up. She was really noisy, and he felt as if his sensitive ears were about to go deaf because of her. “What are you screaming for? Didn’t you see this handsome face of mine? If you don't need your eyes, you can donate them to someone in need.”When Nara saw that it was Jasper, she knew she couldn't act recklessly despite feeling annoyed. It was not only because of Jasper's status but also because he was Jenell’s son. Nara quickly reached out and patted her chest lightly, pretending to be extremely delicate.“I-I'm easily frightened, so I can’t stand being scared by you like this.”“Pfft!” Jasper didn't buy her act at all.All that sweet talk about her being a delicate and fragile woman was nonsense to him. He only knew who the real fairy was.He chuckled and said, “Your acting skills are as abundant as the Kenwoods’ wealth, so much so that I can't find any evidence of you being a decent person at all.”Jasper never fil
