Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 792

Lance opened his mouth to say something but in the end, he didn't. For the next moments, he kept silent. What had happened in the past couldn't be changed no matter how hard he tried, and he couldn't choose to change anything even if he were able to do so. Perhaps, the position of the Holy Maiden shouldn't have existed at all.

"You don't have anything to say?" From Catherine's perspective, the silence of Lance was acquiescence to what she was accusing him of. Instead of having any sort of satisfaction, she became even more furious. "Now that you're feeling guilty with what you did to me, there's one thing you can do to try and make it up to me. Write an imperial edict to appoint me as the heir to the throne. I want the throne of the South Kingdom."

"You don't know how to rule a country."

"I never said I want to rule the South Kingdom. What I need is merely the position of Queen. He has a very prominent status. If I marry him as a queen with our entire territory as my dowry, he'll definitely be willing to marry me," Catherine said in a low voice.

"He? Who are you talking about?" Lance asked, very much confused with Catherine's statement.

"Prince Matthew Jun."

Lance looked at Catherine in total disbelief. He had never expected that the man Catherine fell in love with was Matthew. He was well aware of what kind of person Matthew was. Even if Catherine was the empress of the Bright Dynasty, Matthew wouldn't even look at her for a brief second, let alone if she was the queen of the South Kingdom. Matthew was no less arrogant than an emperor. And so far, there had been only one woman who got the chance to be by his side, and that was Harper.

"He has a wife!"

"Your Majesty, have you forgotten that Harper entered the Labyrinth Swamp, together with Sister Diana?" Catherine said while placing a blank imperial edict in front of him. She then helped Lance in a sitting position before saying, "Your Majesty, the time has come for you to compensate me."

Instead of writing the imperial edict, Lance calmly stated, "Even if you give him the entire territory of the South Kingdom as a gift, Matthew wouldn't even take a look at you. Don't you know that Matthew and his wife love each other very much?"

"Do you think I'm stupid? I know that. That's why Harper needed to die. Otherwise, why do you think she was taken by the library for no reason? In addition to her own spiritual energy, I was responsible for the other half of it," Catherine said with a broad smile on her face.

"Did you have anything to do with the collapse of the library as well?" Lance asked in disbelief. He didn't think he could be more surprised that day. The library was an important place for the South Kingdom, but Catherine had the nerve to destroy it, just so her plot against Harper could come to fruition.
