The night dragged on into the late hours.
Acela, crying in the mansion’s courtyard, slowly regained her composure. She held the photo in her
hand and tiredly headed back to the living room.
Right at this moment, two figures climbed over the wall and landed on the ground silently. They looked
at Acela’s pretty figure and snickered.
“It’s late, Miss Hardy. Why don’t we head to bed together?”
Acela’s mind buzzed. She stopped in her tracks, stunned.
Ever since she was sent abroad, she went by a different name, Angelica Anne. Few people, if not
none, knew
that she was Drake Hardy’s daughter.

turned to look at Gordon and his men.
She pouted. “My last name isn’t Hardy. It’s Anne! Are you trying to woo me? I’m not interested! Also,
you’re
trespassing private property! No lady would like that! Hmph!”
Gordon smiled and raised his thumbs at her. “I have to give it to you. You put on a great act, Miss
Hardy. I
almost bought it, but…”
His gaze turned cold. He said icily, “Miss Hardy, do you think I’d come and get you if I didn’t have the
correct source? If you know any better, you’ll come home with me.
“You’re so pretty. I don’t mind having you as my kept woman. You’re still young. I can play with you for
a few
good years.
“If you insist on doing things the hard way, you can go to hell to be with your father!”
Acela was alarmed. Her act did not work. They knew who she was! They knew she was Drake Hardy’s
daughter!
“You killed my father!” At that point, she no longer needed to hide things from them anymore. She
glared at Gordon and said through gritted teeth, “You want me to come with you? Dream on! I dare you
to kill me right
now! I’d rather die than go with you!”
Gordon laughed. “I finally found you with much difficulty. Why should I let you die so easily?”
Then, he ordered, “Monkey! Enough nonsense with her! Take her down!”
The subordinate called Monkey went up to Acela and snickered at her. “My apologies, Miss Hardy!”
His right hand reached out to grab her when…

An object cut through the air sharply with lightning speed and hit Monkey’s wrist.

“Ah!” Monkey clutched his right arm and wailed in pain. He was so frightened that he retreated. He
sobbed and yelled at Gordon. “Gordon, someone’s there! My wrist is broken! It’s broken!”
Gordon looked alarmed. He quickly scanned his surroundings. He did not notice anyone. “Who is there
sneaking around in the dark? I dare you to come out and fight me in person!”
Slow footsteps rang out.
Alexander calmly walked to the edge of the balcony on the top floor and leaped, landing on the ground
gracefully.
He looked at Acela and nodded at her before looking at Gordon. “Breaking into a stranger’s home in
the middle of the night and harassing them… Who is the sneaky one here?
“I never wanted to interfere in Mister Hardy’s death, but if you dare to touch a single hair of Acela, you’ll
have
to die today!”
