Chapter 139
Daranâs face was expressionless.
He didnât respond to Morganaâs cry.
Walking close, he grabbed the rope that bound Morganaâs hands and gave it one hard pull.
The rope snapped. And Morganaâs hands were free.
She remained in her seat and looked at Daran suspiciously, âWhat are you doing?â âYou are free to leave the room,â Daran said in a cool voice.
âDoes this come from Lance?â
âI made this call.â
Yet instead of being grateful, Morgana let out a loud, sarcastic laugh, âOh so you are
in charge now? Making all the calls? Because you betrayed all your friends and sucked up to your enemy, you suddenly become the big boss? And what is this? You want me to thank you with gratitude?â
Daran ignored her sarcastic words with the same expressionless face.
âWhere is the dungeon?â he asked abruptly.
Morganaâs nostrils flared. She asked pointedly, âWhy do you ask? Are you looking for someone important?â
Daranâs face darkened.
âDonât give me that attitude. Answer my question,â he demanded.
Morgana was pissed.
She thought Daran would explain himself, or at least act like he was sorry.
But no.
He was still cold, arrogant, and cocky as ever! He didnât even seem to believe that he owed everyone an explanation!
Morgana was never too crazy about Daran. Men were all assholes and Daran was no exception.
She only proposed a collaboration because of Janet-she could trust Janet. And since Daran was so crazily in love with Janet, she was fine with Daran getting on board. with them.
But this bastard screwed them over!
He even threw the woman he loved under the bus!
Was his heart made of stone and ice?
âDo you want to know where Lance kept Janet?â she glared at Daran, âDo you feel sorry?
Sorry that you betrayed her and caused her in this situation?â
Daran narrowed his eyes, âThis is none of your business.â
âThen fuck you!â Morgana spat, âI wonât tell you. Definitely not going to let you hurt her again! As far as I am concerned, she doesnât want to see you either. She

Daran narrowed his eyes, âThis is none of your business.â
âThen fuck you!â Morgana spat, âI wonât tell you. Definitely not going to let you hurt her again! As far as I am concerned, she doesnât want to see you either. She probably hopes that you died in a fucking shithole!â
Daran let out a snort.
Her threats and curses seemed to have zero effects on him.
Which further proved that he was a barefaced, heartless prick!
âIf you are such a big boss, go find out where she is yourself. Or ask Lance,â Morgana taunted. âYou saved Lanceâs ass big time. I bet he is willing to tell you anything.â
Daran looked away from her.
He reached into his pocket and put something on the table.
It was some antibiotics and bandages.
âYou are right. Janet probably doesnât want to see me,â he said deeply. âGive this to her when you see her. Tell her to take care of herself. And tell her that I have my reasons.â
He turned to leave the room.
Morgana stared at his back.
She knew that she probably shouldnât say another word to him ever again.
But after a little pause, she couldnât help but cry to his back, âHey! What is your fucking reason!â
Yet Daran didnât answer.
He didnât even slow his steps.
He went straight out of the room and closed the door behind him.
The following few days were like a living hell for Janet.
Harper would visit her every single day, bringing a large group of soldiers to torment her.
She tried to fight back. But there was not much she could do with her hands and feet anchored to the wall.
Harper enjoyed humiliating her greatly. She would dress up and sit by the side as soldiers beat Janet up.
Yet no matter how many makeups she applied, it still wouldnât cover the fact that she had a missing front tooth.
On the fourth time she showed up, Janet noticed that she had planted a golden tooth.
âShiny.â
Janet commented with a cold smile.
Janet commented with a cold smile.
âIt fits your bad taste.â
Harperâs face twisted in rage. She knew that the golden tooth was tacky. But it was the best she could do within such a short time.
She received quite a few mocking and cold eyes from the other ladies recently.
And it was all because of this bitch Janet!
âShut up, bitch!â
Harper yelled at Janet, clenching her fists.
âI am giving you a good lesson today! Maybe that ought to teach you to shut your filthy hole!â
She beckoned to a soldier, who brought over a stun gun.
They had used all kinds of weapons on Janet for the past few days, like whips, sticks, and stones.
But a stun gunâ¦this was a first.
Janetâs body became stiff.
She could already imagine the electronic shots coursing through her body⦠It must fucking hurt.
But she didnât want Harper to see that she was afraid. So she took a deep breath and closed her eyes, ready to endure any pain in silence.
âTake it, bitch!â Harper cackled viciously, âNobody is coming to save you-â âWho says there isnât?â a sudden voice came from the door.
Janet snapped her eyes open, astonished.
A tall and beautiful woman with flaming red hair stood by the door, with her arms. crossed in front of her chest.
âMorgana!â
Harper cried in horror.
âW-What are you doing here? You traitor should be locked up!â
Morgana chuckled and stepped into the dungeon, with armed soldiers following behind her back.
âThe King released me and gave me my old job back. As the Cabinet Minister,â Morgana sneered. âAnd I guess I should be the one asking that question: what are YOU doing here? Did anyone authorize you to visit Gamma Janet?â
Harper took a small step back. Then she raised her head stubbornly.
âI didnât need an authorization! I am the Queen! I can go anywhere as I please!â she cried.
âWrong.â
The cold smile on Morganaâs lips grew wider.
âWithout an authorization, you are committing a serious crime. You and your
Harper cried in hortor.
âW-What are you doing here? You traitor should be locked up!â
Morgana chuckled and stepped into the dungeon, with armed soldiers following behind her back.

âI didnât need an authorization! I am the Queen! I can go anywhere as I please!â she
cried.
âWrong.â
The cold smile on Morganaâs lips grew wider.
âWithout an authorization, you are committing a serious crime. You and your accomplices should all be punished.â
She snapped her fingers. Her soldiers closed up on Harperâs men.
âOne arm,â she said idly.
Harperâs men were all horrified. They dropped to their knees as fast as they could. One guy even cried out loud begging, âPlease Lady Morgana! I-I wonât do this again! Please!!!â
Yet one soldier caught his arm forcefully. And then-
CRACK!!
His right arm was snapped.
The man crushed to the ground, rolling around in pain.
Within 5 short seconds, all of Harperâs men lost one arm.
The dungeon echoed with wails. Harperâs face was pale, and her body was quivering
in fear.
Morgana looked at her, smiling, âDoes the future queen like to have a taste of that?â Harperâs lips trembled, ââ¦Whyâ¦Why would Lance give you your job back? You betrayed him!â
Morgana laughed, âBecause I am too important! 90% of the men in his palace took orders from me. He canât simply replace me. Unlike you, bitch. He can toss you aside
without a blink of an eye. So watch yourself around me.â
Harper bit her lower lip, humiliated.
But she couldnât argue with Morgana on this. It was a fact.
âBeat it!â Morgana snapped.
Harper hurried off instantly. Her men followed behind her back, staggering. They were gone within seconds.
Morgana waved at her soldiers, âYou guys can leave as well.â
Everyone was cleared out. And it was just Morgana and Janet in the room.

âOh my god⦠Look at you! That fucking Harper!â
Morgana rushed to Janetâs side and checked her wounds.
âI should fucking kill her!â Morgana gritted.
Janet grabbed her hand.
âForget about Harper. Haveâ¦Have you heard from Daran
she asked urgently.
Morgana rolled her eyes, âWhy are you still asking about that traitor? He should be dead to you.â
Janet looked at her, stunned, ââ¦.Maybe he has his reasons.â
âWhat reasons!â Morgana jumped up, infuriated. âDid he come and visit you once since you were caught? NO! He is out there having parties and good times with Lance! He has completely forgotten about you! I donât care what fucking reasons he had. He is a fucking prick! Period!â
Janet shook her head.
She turned a tortured face to Morgana.
âI know Daranâ¦This isnât like his normal self,â she said lowly.
Morganaâs jaw tightened.
âFINE!â she said abruptly and then pulled out a key, unlocking Janet.
âCome with me.â
She pulled Janet up from the floor.
âYou will believe me if you see with your own eyes.â
Chapter 140
Morgana took her out of the dungeon.
They were seen by many soldiers on their way. But none of those soldiers made a move to stop them.
Janet grabbed her hand.
âForget about Harper. Haveâ¦Have you heard from Daran?â she asked urgently.
Morgana rolled her eyes, âWhy are you still asking about that traitor? He should be dead to you.â
