Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 805

When Harper and Matthew reached the entrance of the Birch Pass, they immediately saw a person who was leaning against the city gate and holding a long spear. The couple could feel his rage even from far away.

Harper lifted the curtain and said, "Carlson arrived so soon."

Looking at her, Matthew noticed that she looked guilty. With eyebrows raised, he said, "Why are you afraid of him? Be tough enough and ask him to go down on his knees and welcome his aunt."

Harper glared at Matthew. After all, she and Carlson were friends. It wouldn't be appropriate to treat a friend like that. Moreover, the man was Prince Allen's son. He came from a royal family so there was no need for him to kneel down just to greet them!

Meanwhile, Carlson briefly looked at the curtain of the carriage and snorted.

Holding his spear horizontally, he stopped the envoy team, as if nobody would be able to resist him. "You've gone too far. How could you play tricks on me?"

Harper lifted the curtain once again and said, "Carlson, long time no see. You're breaking my heart by doing this when we just meet after not seeing each other for so long."

Carlson was rendered speechless with that. The truth was he felt wronged by what they had done. When he had just come all the way from the north domain to the Birch Pass in the south domain, he heard that the couple went to the South Kingdom. Even though he was very tired, he promptly followed them but before he could reach them, they had already gone back to the Birch Pass. What was more, he also heard about the accident which happened to Harper. He was so concerned with her that he went back to the Birch Pass in a hurry. So when he got the news that she left for the South Kingdom again, he felt even more desperate to see them.

Wiping away the tears that didn't actually exist in the corner of her eye, Harper said in a very sad tone, "Well look at me! I've encountered some great troubles recently! I was sent to the South Kingdom and was locked in the library there by force. Then the library even collapsed, almost killing me. Well, that was fine, just a narrow escape from death. But that's not all! I was even made to enter the Labyrinth Swamp against my will! Do you know what kind of place that is? Anybody who had gone there never came back!"

"Well, I just..." Carlson tried to explain but he was quickly interrupted.

"You don't know how much I've gone through just so I can get out of the Labyrinth Swamp alive. Then, I have to go back to the South Kingdom to deal with some matters. As my good friend, you don't even feel sad for me even when I've suffered so much. And here you are, embarrassing me at the city gate. Are you still my friend?" Without waiting for a response, Harper dropped the curtain, leaving Carlson nothing but a shadow of the curtain being blown by the wind. He was at a loss for what to do. But before he could decide about anything, Barry drove the carriage forward. Carlson didn't have a choice but to silently make way for them.

When the envoy team entered the Birch Pass, Carlson hadn't recovered from feeling guilty. Meanwhile, Shawn had witnessed everything from the gate tower. He just shook his head and stated, "I told him that he's just going to suffer if he goes to them with that attitude. But he didn't trust me. This couple worked together and destroyed him."

The deputy general briefly looked at Shawn and silently thought to himself, 'It's because you only reminded him that Prince Matthew might give him a hard time. But you didn't mention that Princess Harper might do the same!'

Then, Carlson slowly followed the team into the city, still filled with guilt. For the past months, Harper had suffered a lot of hardships. She almost lost her life several times. It was great relief to see her being alive, so how could he blame her!
