Chapter 974: The prisoner (1)

~ Austin, Morgan's family villa ~

Harriet is in the basement. She is locked in there since her mother forced her to come back from Los Angeles.

Harriet still remembers it clearly… Thursday, October 24. She was with Benjamin when her mother called, asking her to meet for lunch. If she knew that she will end up here, would she stay with Benjamin how he suggested, or would she still follow her mother? Harriet is not sure. She never openly defied her parents.

She remembers how during that lunch her mother was assaulting her with endless questions, as usually… asking her how she is spending her time, what events are her favorites so far, if she purchased any clothing pieces worth mentioning, and if she met anyone interesting. Harriet responded flawlessly while portraying an image of herself as someone who only thought about fashion events and shopping. Ah, now she knows that her mother was leading her on.
