Chapter 178 Did she just kiss him?
"W-What approach?" Ryan gasped for breath as he spoke intermittently. He was tired, but seeing Harper so happy, he said nothing. As long as Harper was happy, he was happy too.
Harper smirked and leaned in closer to the two...
After finishing her words, she smiled and asked, "Did you understand?"
Ethan nodded, but why did he feel skeptical?
After all, that wicked grandmother didn't seem that foolish.
Ryan also silently nodded, stealing a few glances at Harper.
Although a bit surprised, he didn't think there was anything wrong with it. He had always been afraid of his mother and grandmother. They were never kind to him, and he had never made any friends until he met Harper...
At that moment, Harper looked at Sharon, who was not far away from them, tilted her head, and said with a smile, "Hey, don't you want to see Mommy? But Mommy is not at home right now. I'll take you to see her if you can do me a favor."
Gasping for breath while leaning on the couch, Sharon lifted her head with some effort and glanced at Harper. Although she cursed inwardly, she asked, "What favor?"
She didn't believe she couldn't outsmart Harper. The most important thing now was to rescue Lisa.
Since Antonio refused to help, she would start with Sarah!
Today, she would deceive these kids and make Sarah help rescue Lisa...
Once Lisa was out, she would have plenty of chances to teach these brats a lesson and take revenge for the humiliation she endured today!
"I can help you, but you have to make sure Sarah rescues my daughter. Otherwise... I won't let you off the hook!" Sharon said fiercely.
Harper's eyes lit up. "Great! Then... help me find my doll."
Ethan, observing the situation, glanced lightly at her and pretended to be stern. "Harper, how could you... Mommy will be angry."
"Ethan, please help me, just this once. I really want to find that doll." Harper pouted.
"But—"
Seeing this, Sharon quickly said, "What doll? I will definitely help you find it!"
"It's a bunny doll. I was playing with it in the courtyard a few days ago, but it suddenly disappeared... I've been looking for it for days. If you can help me find it, I'll help you," Harper said, pretending to be pitiful as if it was something truly important.
Ethan felt somewhat helpless, silently rubbing his forehead. If he didn't know the truth, he could have been deceived by Harper's incredible acting skills.
That bunny doll was clearly taken by...
"Alright, I'll go look for it. Are you sure it was in the courtyard?" Sharon asked, puzzled. She had truly lost her mind dealing with those troublesome kids for so long.
Even if she beat them up, Lisa wouldn't come back. She might as well coax them nicely and get them to help her rescue Lisa.
Under the scorching sun outside, Sharon braved the blazing rays as she searched in the courtyard...
Half an hour passed...
Not even a bug in sight, let alone the doll. Where did this damn kid throw the toy?
"Damn it! Once I rescue Lisa, I'll surely..." Sharon muttered under her breath as she searched.
A burly bodyguard stood under the shade of a nearby tree, supervising. When he saw her slow movements, the "monitor" immediately snarled, "Hurry up and stop slacking off."
He had long wanted to throw Sharon out but wouldn't have bothered if it weren't for Harper letting her off the hook.
Sharon couldn't even grasp the reality of the situation. Instead of helping Harper find things, she was just having evil thoughts.
...
Indoors, the three kids were quietly eating pudding.
Ethan thought of something and asked, "Harper, is the doll you mentioned the one the guard doggy often carries?"
After staying here for a few days, Ethan had become familiar with this villa.
He also remembered... Hmm, the butler has a guard doggy, and that big dog protects a shabby doll. If anyone dares to snatch it, the doggy will bark incessantly.
Although it wouldn't bite without reason, it still appeared quite intimidating.
Harper nodded and sat on the sofa, swinging her little feet. Just as she was about to speak, they heard the barking from the courtyard outside, followed by Sharon's miserable scream.
"Help! There's a dog! Ah!" Sharon desperately ran while holding a tattered doll, with the ferocious dog continuously barking behind her.
