Chapter 120
“You want to marry into our family? Take a good look at yourself first. Harry will never love someone as conniving and vicious as you. Even if you disguise it well, you can’t deceive my eyes,” Lascia retorted.
“It’s all because of you! If it weren’t for you meddling and forcing Harry to marry Julia, how could he fall for her? I haven’t done anything, yet you insist on blaming me for those baseless cusations and rumors, trying to ruin my relationship with Harry Arya snapped.
Fueled by unknown strength. Arya stood up and charged towards Lucia. She used all her might to grab Lucia’s neck and pushed her against the wall. Even with the butler who came with Lucia trying to intervene, Arya didn’t release her grip.
As Lucia’s face turned red and she struggled to breathe, the battler grabbed an empty bottle from the ground and smashed it against Arya’s head. Blood trickled down Arya’s forehead, but she still didn’t let go, continuing to curse.
It wasn’t until Harry arrived that Arya finally released her grip Lucia slid down the wall, sat on the floor, and gasped for breath. She angrily pointed at Arya, her voice hoarse-
“She… she tried to kill me!” Lucia struggled to articulate her words. “Harry, do you see it now? This is Arya’s true face. If she marries into our family, I’ll be dead.”
Harry’s face turned stern as he tightly gripped Arya’s wrist, nearly breaking it. Arya had lost her rationality, burying her head and biting Harry’s arm until she lost consciousness and collapsed into his arms.
Seeing Harry’s arm bleeding from Arya’s bite, Lucia’s anger soared. Assisted by the butler, she glared at Arya. I’m calling the police. I’ll charge her with attempted murder,”
Harry glanced at the chaotic scene and said, “Even if we’re pressing charges, we need to get her to the hospital first”
The force used by the butler to smash the bottle on Arya’s head was significant. She would need several stitches for the wound. Lucia trembled angrily as she watched Harry carry Arya way.
In the ward, Arya slowly regained consciousness and saw Harry sitting expressionlessly beside her. She smiled and even took the initiative to hold Harry’s arm. “I knew you wouldn’t let me fend for myself”
When Lucia entered and saw Arya holding Harry’s arm, her anger flared up again. She forcefully separated them, slapping Arya across the face in front of the nurses and Harry. “You bitch pretending to be innocent in front of Harry again. You didn’t look so innocent when you tried to strangle me!”
Arya held her face in pain, bewildered. “Lucia, I don’t know what you’re talking about. When did I try to strangle you?
Lucia pointed to the scar on her neck. “This is your doing. You dare not admit your murderous intentions towards me in front of Howard?”
Arya quickly shook her head. “No, it couldn’t be me. How could I possibly want to kill you? There must be some misunderstanding”
Seeing Arya feign innocence, Lucia didn’t want to waste her breath. She turned her anger towards Harry instead. “I’ve changed my mind. If you can’t bring yourself to send her away, then I’ll arrange for her to be deported immediately.”
Hearing Lucia’s words, Arya became nervous. She pleaded with Harry, begging him not to send her away. She didn’t want to return to her lonely life abroad. She wanted to stay in Cromont City, by Harry’s side.
T
Ignoring her injuries, Arya fell off the hospital bed and begged Lacia. “Lucia, I really didn’t want to harm you. There must be a misunderstanding. Please forgive me, no matter what I’ve done wrong, I apologize. Please forgive me.”

Chapter 120
Lucia kicked Arya away: “Gomont City no longer has a place for you.” She then turned to Harry and warned, “Do you want Arya or me? Think carefully before you answer.”
Harry sat there impassively. The ward was filled with Arya’s sobs and Lucia’s rage. In Harry’s eyes, his relationship with Arya had long ended, and now he was simply fulfilling his promise to Vincent.
He said, “Mom, Vincent saved my life. He entrusted Arya to me before he passed away
“So you
o you choose Arya over me? You don’t want me as your mother? Lucia was furious. “Have you forgotten how your father died? Have you forgotten why he died? You’re taking the enemy’s words as a promise.”
“Mom,” Harry said in a deep voice.
Lucia stared at Harry “Even if I die, I will never forget how your father died and who killed him. Our Wright family and the Hill family are irreconcilable.”
When Julia stepped out of the elevator, she collided with a furious Lucia coming out of the ward. She had received a call from the butler, learning about the fight between Lucia and Ary, and later the heated argument between Lucia and Harry.
Julia asked, “Lucia, why did you leave?”
Lucia didn’t even glance at Julia, her face full of hostility. Julia was, about to follow Lucia when Harry rushed out. grabbed him and asked, “What happened? Can someone tell me?”
She
“Come with me.” Harry grabbed Julia’s arm and pulled her into the adjacent elevator.
Inside the elevator, there were only the two of them. Julia looked at Harry, trying to find answers. “Can you tell me what happened? I rushed here after getting a call from the butler. I heard Arya wanted to kill Lucia?”
Harry nodded. Julia’s expression changed drastically.
“But Arya was drunk,” Harry added.
Julia’s expression changed again, and she sneered. “Are you saying if Arya weren’t drunk, she wouldn’t have harmed Lucia? Are you defending her? You’re saying this even in front of Lucia?”
Harry’s effective response was silence, especially when faced with questions he didn’t want to answer.
Julia said, “Harry, I thought you and Arya had cleared things up by now. I even thought maybe you were serious about building a life with me. But it turns out Arya is still more important to you. Even if Arya wanted to kill Lucia, you still defend
her.
She added, “You can disregard Lucia’s safety for Arya’s sake, Harry. You’re truly a terrifying person. Since Arya means so
you wish.” much to you, let’s get divorced tomorrow. Then you can marry Arya as
As the elevator reached the ground floor, the doors opened. Julia swiftly walked out without looking back. Harry followed, and they began to argue at the hospital entrance.
Harry said, “Julia, I’m taking care of Arya because her brother saved my life. I promised Vincent.”
