Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 831

When midnight came, Wendy was burning with a fever. Upon noticing this, Forsythia immediately ran to tell Harper.

As soon as Forsythia arrived at the door of the room where Harper and Matthew were staying at, Matthew woke up and opened his eyes. He instantly furrowed his eyebrows. Forsythia froze while her foot hung mid-air. Feeling a little awkward, she didn't know whether she should proceed inside or get out immediately. After all, she was well aware that Matthew despised being disturbed while he was with Harper.

"What happened?" Matthew asked, lowering his voice.

"Lady Wendy has a fever. Before Her Highness went to bed, she had warned me that if this were to happen, I must tell her right away. We can't delay the remedy because this is a very serious problem that may cause a lot of complications. Your Highness, what should we do now?" Forsythia replied, lowering her voice as well.

Even though the current situation was very unpleasant to Matthew, he knew that this problem should not be trifled with. Harper had worked so hard for several days just to cure Wendy. If something bad were to happen to the girl and he didn't wake her up at that instant, she would certainly be furious at him.

Taking a look at his beautiful wife who was sleeping so soundly in his arms, Matthew shook her gently. "Harp, Harp, wake up."

Harper opened her drowsy eyes and saw that it was Matthew who was trying to wake her up. So she closed her eyes again. "Matthew, what time is it? When did I reach home?" she asked, wanting so bad to go back to sleep.

Matthew raised his eyebrows out of confusion but smiled in an instant when he understood. "It's quarter to twelve o'clock. We are still in Travis' mansion. Wendy is having a fever."

After hearing what he said, Harper got out of the bed right away. She then quickly put on her shoes and ran out. With a sigh, Matthew could only watch her helplessly. "Slow down. Don't fall down."

"I will," Harper called out from the distance. Before her voice faded, she was already gone. Matthew couldn't help but let out a sigh once again. He didn't quite understand why Harper cared about Wendy so much. After all, the woman was just an outsider for her. But the way she was curing and caring for her, it was as if Wendy was a very close relative.

It was already early in the morning when Harper came back to their room. She then threw herself on the bed and didn't move at all. She was so exhausted after taking care of Wendy the whole night. Her face was not as pale as before but she was still very weak. It was at this time that Hannah personally brought the ginseng soup for her.

"Shawn said that you're becoming really weak these days. I asked the servants to make some ginseng soup for you. Please drink it now," Hannah gently said while she sat down. Then, she handed over the bowl of ginseng soup to Harper.

"Thank you very much," Harper politely replied.
