Harmonia did not express any objections. She simply walked to the room next door and retrieved many spools of yarn.The teacher immediately asked, “Do you need that much yarn for that bit of rug?”“I want to weave a colorful rug.”The teacher was once again rendered speechless. Since this was homework she had assigned, it was completely legitimate for Harmonia to take the yarn to complete it!As for how much yarn Harmonia could take, that was something she had not set any limits to, and she could only allow Harmonia to take as much as she wanted.Harmonia wrapped her arms around a basketful of yarn and said as she looked at the teacher, “Please have someone send the loom to my room.”Since she had to weave a rug, the loom had to be sent to her room. Otherwise, how would she be able to complete her homework?Since the teacher was the one who had assigned the homework, she would be in the wrong if she refused to give Harmonia the loom!The teacher had no choice but to send the lo
The door to her shower was kicked open!It was clear that the incoming assailant had used much force.Flower Sandy barged in furiously, with her two female servants in tow.Harmonia turned to look at them in feigned horror as she anxiously looked outside the door.Flower Sandy crossed her arms in front of her chest and said, “Don’t bother looking. We’ve seen the loom you’ve mechanized.”Harmonia wondered to herself, ‘Who said that I was looking at my mechanized loom?’“Harmonia Marsh, you mechanized the loom without express permission and have severely flouted the rules!”Flower Sandy looked all in a rage, but she was delighted inside!She finally had something on Harmonia and could find a legitimate reason to punish her. That would certainly put her in Nara’s good books!Harmonia remained silent as the two female servants eagerly chimed in, “Sandy is right. You are atrocious! You were humming so loudly in the washroom that we could hear it at the door!”“Harmonia Marsh, are
“What are you guys doing in the middle of the night?!”Jasper rushed into the room and appeared at the door of the washroom.His eyes were opened wide in shock as he looked at Flower Sandy and her troop.“Are you three strong women taking advantage of her, one weak and frail lady? You’re just abusing your authority and forcing her to her death!”Jasper’s scoldings sent Flower Sandy and her two female servants into a daze.How were they strong women?How was Harmonia… a weak and frail lady?!Flower Sandy immediately tried explaining herself, “Mr. Martinez, things aren’t what they seem. Please hear me out.”“Hear you out? What is there to explain? The facts are laid bare right before my eyes! Do you think I’m blind? Can’t I see the truth for myself? Do I need you to explain things to me?”Jasper was no benevolent soul, and he had a wild, sharp tongue!He was certainly an expert in kicking up a fuss and being unreasonable!Flower Sandy had no choice but to swallow back her expl
“Mom, you have no idea how chaotic things are here. Had I come any later, Harmonia would have been forced to jump off! They brought so many people with them and barged into Harmonia’s room. They kicked down the door to the washroom, and even the windows were smashed! Do you hear the sound of the wind? It was so frightening!”“Nancy and I are right here at Snow Manor, but they were bold enough to take matters into their own hands and did not ask us for permission! They clearly disregard us and you, too! Sigh… they even frightened Nancy to tears! The moment she got frightened, her first reaction was to call you, but that witch dared to stop her! “Nancy’s wrist is all swollen. Apply ice on it? Sure, sure, I will. Everything outside is covered in snow and ice, I’ll get some right away and apply it on her.” Jasper rattled on, every single word of his making Flower Sandy break into a cold sweat, yet she had no chance of refuting his claims!Jasper finally turned to look at Flower Sandy a
Nancy excitedly pressed the green button to answer the call.Dimas’ low and magnetic voice sounded.“Is she there? Pass the phone to her.”Nancy pouted indignantly. She didn’t even get a chance to greet Dimas!Just as she was about to hand the phone over, she halted in mid-air and asked with a smile, “Dimas, who are you talking about? There are two people next to each other, one is Jasper, the other is…”Before Nancy was done speaking, his low voice sounded once more, “Do you think I will especially call to speak to Jasper?”He clearly didn’t want to waste a second longer to speak to his lady!Jasper looked utterly confused.Nancy burst out laughing before handing the phone to Harmonia.“Harmonia, Dimas misses you and wants to talk to you!’Dimas thought exasperatedly, ‘Did I say anything about missing Harmonia? I kept that thought to myself.’Harmonia’s ears flushed red, and she took the phone from Nancy after saying thanks.Nancy was quick-witted and obedient enough to gr
She truly felt that the longest, windiest road she had ever taken was the road paved by Dimas!Harmonia subsequently changed the subject and went straight to business.She told Dimas everything that had happened that day.She had deliberately given the female servants a long list of things to buy as bait to lure Flower Sandy in.She seized the time while the female servants went reporting to Flower Sandy to leave her room via the balcony in search of Jasper and Nancy to discuss when they should appear in her room.She then returned to her room and started working on the loom.She knew that when she successfully mechanized the loom, the two female servants would surely be onto her.That was why this time, she deliberately caused a little commotion!She did not draw the balcony curtains, and anyone in the opposite building would be able to see what she was doing with a pair of binoculars.She even chose a good spot next to the lamp with an excellent angle and sufficient light.
His gaze never left her, those deep, dark eyes glinting with life only because of her.He shut the windows with his other hand so that the wind wouldn’t continue getting in, then he tightened his arms around his lady.What else could he do?Even if she had truly pierced a knife through his heart, he couldn’t bear to let her get exposed to the wind and the rain.The warmth from his chest and arms made Harmonia smile as she nodded.Dimas was confused.Harmonia held back her laughter, but at the next moment, she found herself unable to laugh at all.He hauled her up with one arm and turned around so quickly that Harmonia yelped in shock!“Dimi!”“Do you wish to see me or not?”She didn’t expect him to still be harping on this point!“Yes, I do,” she said in a small, soft voice.He was very pleased, and he lifted her up as he turned her toward him. He kept his arm firmly around her waist, locked in his embrace.He bent his head forward and planted a kiss on her forehead.“Goo
Harmonia landed on his body. He protected her so well that she didn’t even feel the recoil when they fell on the couch.His body warmth seeped through her sleeping gown. She anxiously tried to hold her body up, but he had wrapped his arm tightly around her waist, making her fall back on his chest once more…“Dimi…”He smiled and whispered into her ear in a low voice, “Hmm?”“You… you… I… we…” Harmonia sputtered.“There is a drone outside.”In her shock, Harmonia instinctively turned to look at the balcony windows.The room was brightly lit, and it was the same outside as well.They were very near the balcony, and the drone was perfectly capable of capturing everything happening in the room.Harmonia didn’t dare to move an inch.“When did you realize that?”“When you kicked the lamp down again.”Why was it still about that lamp?!She didn’t do it on purpose!She had just accidentally hit it when she swung her legs! It must be the fault of that lamp for being too weak and f
