Pregnant and Favored: See You in the Morning, Young Master novel Chapter 874

Anxiously rushing over, Hartley exclaimed, “M-Miss Lockhart…! Please stop saying such things…! Please, I beg of you…! Just beg Young Master Keith for forgiveness…! Otherwise, you’ll be dead in no time…!”

Stubbornly pursing her lips as she fought the urge to pass out, Xavia—with quite a bit of difficulty—managed to growl, “…I truly do want to help you… But I have… no feelings for you at all… With that in mind… I’ve never felt happy in the least to do anything that you’ve told me to…”
