Chapter 175 Let Me Out!


    Diana was entirely caught off guard when Harrison suddenly appeared, blocking her path.


    Time was running out, and she still needed to fetch ire.


    Gregory was notorious throughout Kingstown for being a total creep, and ire, being the princess of the Prescott family, was well aware of his reputation. Sending Gregory to get ire was out of the question - Diana would have to lure ire there herself. "Come on, Mr. Prescott, what''s with the third degree? I just need to use the bathroom. It''s kind of urgent. I''ve got terrible cramps. Could you please step aside? Whatever it is, can''t it wait until I get back?"


    Diana yed the period card, figuring Harrison wouldn''t dare press the issue after that.


    "Cramps, huh? I''m sorry, Ms. Hawthorne, but I happened to overhear your conversation with Gregory. I suspect you''re not heading to the bathroom at all. You''re going to find ire."


    Harrison nced at his watch; the event was about to start, and he decided to cut to the chase.


    "You... how did you..."


    Chapter 175 Let Me Out!


    Diana had thought their earlier encounter was just a


    coincidence. She hadn''t expected Harrison to know everything.


    "Wondering how I know? Why did I happen to overhear?"


    Harrison knew time was short and got straight to the point. "Since returning from abroad, I''ve done my research and learned about recent events. In the Prescott family, you lot don''t stand a chance of pulling this off without my help." "What?"


    Diana was shocked. "Mr. Prescott... what exactly are you saying?"


    "You''re such an idiot. Did you really think you could deal with ire right under everyone''s nose at the party? Forget it. Go back. I''ll escort ire to her room myself. You''ve been to the Prescott Manor enough times to know where her room is. Have Gregory go there in five minutes."


    Harrisonid it out bluntly, not wanting to waste any more time.


    "Alright."


    Diana nodded, though she still seemed uncertain. "Why are you helping me?"


    "Why? Because ire got my own sister killed. She stole twenty years of love and life that should have belonged to Anna. That''s why."

    Harrison''s mind shed back to Anna''s horrific state just before.


    her death.


    Diana fell silent, then turned to leave and find Gregory, nning to lead him to ire''s room.


    Before Anna''s incident, Diana had visited the Prescott Manor countless times with her. She knew theyout like the back of her hand, including ire''s room location. Otherwise, she''d never have dared to make a move here. Meanwhile, ire had just stepped away from her admiring crowd with Elizabeth, holding her custom evening gown.


    "Oh ire, you''re too thoughtful. But sweetheart, you don''t have much savings - you shouldn''t be spending money like this. Chris'' evening gown costs one hundred thousand dors! I''ll wire you the money right away." Elizabeth squeezed ire''s hand tenderly, knowing both the gown''s price and ire''s difficult situation.


    "Grandma, please don''t. I promise I can afford it. I''ve been working and saved up quite a bit. Don''t worry about me."


    ire felt a warmth spread through her chest, tears welling up in her eyes.


    Ever since she went to prison four years ago, Elizabeth had probably been thest bit of warmth left in her world. Her birth parents were gambling addicts, and her mother, Effie

    Beaumont, had vanished without a trace after the truth about the switched babies scandal came to light.


    Just as she was lost in these gloomy thoughts, Harrison approached.


    "Happy birthday, Grandma. Ah, so ire''s here. I''ve been looking everywhere for her. Perfect timing, I need to discuss something with her."


    Harrison put on an act of having been searching for ire.


    "Go ahead, you two talk."


    Elizabeth nodded, then walked off to greet some other birthday well-wishers who had just arrived.


    "What do you want?"


    ire knew both Harrison and Frederick hated her guts. Any time they sought her out, it usually meant trouble was brewing.


    "Let''s talk in your room," Harrison ordered.


    "My room? Why can''t we talk here?" ire blurted out reflexively.


    "If you want everyone here to hear what I have to say, that''s fine by me."


    Harrison frowned, waving his phone.Property of N?)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

    ire hesitated before nodding, following Harrison back to her old room in the Prescott Manor.


    To her shock, the moment she stepped inside, Harrison locked her in.


    "Harrison, what the hell are you doing? Let me out!"
