Harley’s eyes were dark.
“So what? It’s none of your business. Stop hindering me, Harold and the others are still waiting for me.”
“I sent a letter to Professor Galvan in
to give to study.”
up this task and stay at schoour name, stating that you wanted
Joaquin’s expression remained calm, as if he was talking about something insignificant, but it sent shivers down Harley’s spine.
Harley looked at him in disbelief, his lips trembling slightly.
“Are you serious? You’re not joking with me, right?”
Joaquin smiled faintly and gently touched Harley’s hair.
“Of course, Professor Galvan agreed, and I have his reply here. Do you
want to see it?”
Harley forcefully shook off Joaquin’s restraints, her eyes red and her voice. choked with emotion.
“Why did you decide for me? This is my matter, my choice!”
Joaquin’s eye sockets were also slightly moist, and he lowered his head, unable to meet Harley’s gaze.
“I wanted to protect you, so there was no other choice.”
Harley was almost laughing out of anger, she clenched her fist, and the veins on her arm slightly bulged.

“What you call protection is just treating me like a canary, locking me in a cage and not letting me go anywhere, right?”
Joaquin paused for a moment and slowly spoke, “It’s not entirely that, it’s just that you, a young girl, going to carry out this kind of mission…”
Harley slapped Joaquin in the face as she let go of his hand.
“Don’t look down on people anymore, Joaquin. You and I are equal, and there is no superiority or inferiority based on gender.”
“I also had my dreams, my pursuits, and you should not have deprived me of my right to pursue my dreams.”
“If it were you who was stopped here today, would you compromise?”
Her chest heaved heavily; her eyes filled with disappointment.
Joaquin was stunned.
If he were Harley, he would also hate himself.
But he wasn’t, he would rather have Harley hate himself than let her get hurt again.
He was so scared that he resorted to such vulgar means.
While Joaquin was thinking, Harley ran to the door and twisted the doorknob for a while, but the door just wouldn’t open.
“No matter what you said, I wouldn’t let you leave. This door lock was very special, so stop struggling, you couldn’t open it.”
Without hesitation, Harley turned around and walked into the room.
“You understood…”

Joaquin hadn’t finished speaking when he saw Harley twist the bedsheet into a rope and tie it around his waist.
“Harley, what were you going to do? This is the fourth floor, are you crazy?!”
“I wasn’t crazy, on the contrary, I was very calm.”
Harley tied the other end of the bedsheet to the window and picked up the quilt to increase the length of the rope.
“I wanted to be a bird soaring freely in the blue sky, without any constraints.”
“Joaquin, if you had any conscience, don’t stop me.
Joaquin wanted to stop Harley from going forward, but he was also afraid that Harley would get too excited and jump down directly. He was caught in a dilemma for a moment.
Seeing Harley eager to try, Joaquin gritted his teeth and prepared to move forward, but suddenly there was a noise at the door.
After a few loud noises, the door was kicked open from the outside.
When Harold burst in, he saw Harley being forced to the edge of the window, while Joaquin kept getting closer to Harley.
Harold instantly became furious and went straight up to give Joaquin a punch.
Joaquin’s injury had not fully healed, so he was no match for Harold. After taking a few solid punches, Harold was finally pulled away by Harley.
Are you still human? Are you going to push Harley to jump off the building?
