Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 666

As the guards arrived at Felix's mansion, they found that the mansion was completely deserted. The guards rummaged the entire mansion, but found no one. Both Felix and his wife had disappeared, as if they had vanished into thin air.

"Where are they?" Ken asked in shock. "Where is Prince Felix?"

"General Ken, we have been guarding the mansion round-the-clock. No one has entered, or come out…" the head of the guards said. He too was shocked to learn that the mansion was empty. Felix had committed serious crimes and was placed under house arrest. Now that Felix had escaped under his watch, he would get punished for dereliction of duty.

"Search for Prince Felix! We have to find him by hook or by crook!" Ken ordered. He felt vexed. The emperor had changed a lot in disposition recently. He had increasingly become crazy and bloodthirsty. If they were unsuccessful in finding Felix, Ken was afraid that he too might get implicated and punished.

However, despite searching every nook and corner of the mansion and the surroundings around, they still couldn't find any trace of Felix and his wife.

In the underground secret path, Howard looked at a disheveled Felix in a way as if he enjoyed great pleasure in seeing the latter in such a miserable situation. With a faint smile at the corners of his mouth, he said, "If I hadn't come a little earlier, you would have already been decapitated."

Casting a fierce glare at Howard, Felix said, "What is it you want this time? First, you helped Hoffman to fight against me, and now you are here to rescue me. What on earth do you want?"

"Prince Felix, don't talk nonsense. At the time when I joined Prince Hoffman's camp, I was just following orders. Don't you remember you were the one who ordered me to do that?" Howard sneered at him. "Well, I guess great wits have brief memories."

"Bullshit!" Felix cursed angrily. "I ordered you to join Hoffman's camp, but I didn't tell you to betray me!"

"When I joined Prince Hoffman's camp, I had to show my sincerity to him. I didn't know about a better way to show my sincerity other than betraying you. Besides, though I betrayed you, I didn't cause any fatal harm to you. I also helped you to defeat Prince Hoffman, didn't I?" Howard took the lead in walking forward. "Follow me closely, or you will get torn apart by His Majesty."

"Howard, tell me. Whom do you work for?" Felix realized that Howard had never really worked for him. He was a goal-oriented man, and had his own reasons for doing things. He was very clear about his target, and wouldn't hesitate to do anything for achieving his goal.

"Well, you may guess whom I am working for," Howard said, as he turned around and gave a mysterious smile to Felix. Then his sight fell on Felix's wife, who was also there along with Felix. Felix still didn't believe that the emperor had an affair with his wife.

After thinking for a moment, Felix laughed grimly and said, "You work for Matthew Jun!"

"You're wrong. Matthew doesn't deserve my loyalty!" Howard exclaimed coldly. "I have worked for only one person in my life."
