Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 836

"I don't think Francis has any grudges against Harper. You should know that she cured him." Shawn refused to believe that Francis would be so ungrateful as to do such a thing.

"Francis loves Harper devotedly, but she only has eyes for Uncle Matthew. She even set a trap for Francis because of him. Francis had become vicious after Harper did that, and he couldn't get over it. He became determined to kill her. I came to the imperial capital to warn her, and it would be fine if you can tell this to her. Well, I've said what I wanted to say. I'm leaving now." Jason then flicked the dust off his robe and prepared to leave.

"Wait! Whose side are you on? Who on earth are you trying to help?" Shawn asked, stopping Jason in his tracks.

With a bitter smile on his face, Jason looked at his right hand and said, "Both the palm and back of my hand are nothing but flesh and blood. Who do you think I'm helping? I care about both of them and as much as possible, and don't want anything bad to happen to them."

"If there is only one between the two of them who should survive, who will you choose?" Shawn suddenly asked. He wasn't a vile person, but he had to be cautious when it came to Harper.

"If you can only save one person, who will you chose, your sister or Harper?" Jason asked with a small smile.

Shawn frowned and said, "That's different!"

"It's the same for me. One is my brother and the other is someone I had so much to share with. I can already consider her as my sister. I won't give up either of them! Shawn Shen, a lot of things in this world are difficult to deal with. I don't know when it will happen to you. So until then, just think about your feelings now and enjoy your life," Jason nonchalantly said.

"Why don't you go and see His Majesty? He is kind-hearted. He didn't blame you for everything that happened. Instead, he put all the blame on Prince Francis. It's obvious that His Majesty doesn't want to have you executed. Prince Francis is your brother, so is His Majesty. He understands what happened. If possible, just go and see him. Perhaps you will change your mind," Shawn advised.

Jason didn't respond and disappeared soon enough. No matter what, he couldn't go and see the emperor. He felt guilty for the countless things that he had done in secret these past few years. Everything he had done was unforgivable. Not only the emperor, but Harper would be right in not forgiving him. Therefore, he didn't want to face them, or actually, he wouldn't dare to.

"I can't leave now. Physician Gore hasn't come back and agreed to take care of Wendy yet. Also, she hasn't recovered so I have to wait until her condition stabilizes." Harper didn't want to leave Wendy during this critical time. She had taken over the treatment, so she wouldn't abandon her midway into the process. She wouldn't go anywhere until she was sure that there wouldn't be complications in Wendy's recovery.

"I know, so we can just go on with our plan. I'm going to the Great Jade Kingdom first. Although I don't know what Rolando is going to do, he must have his own plan. What he wants should be the Heavenly Book in my hands. I'll go there first and you catch up with me later." Matthew explained his plan.

Harper thought about it and agreed right away. Rolando had never hidden his intentions. He had stayed in the Bright Dynasty for five years just for the Heavenly Book, so it was natural that he would want to get the last Heavenly Book which he didn't have. However, Harper also wanted the Heavenly Book in Rolando's hands, even just to read its contents for a while. Harper had been thinking that they could make a deal.

"If you can't make it, you can just stay here. You don't really need to go there. I will get Rolando's Heavenly Book for you." Matthew was still worried because Rolando was resourceful. Moreover, he was afraid that Harper would go to the Great Jade Kingdom and risk herself. But if he didn't allow her to go, he was also anxious that she would go to some extremes just to acquire the last Heavenly Book.

Sensing his worries, Harper held his hand. "Don't worry, I know what I should do. Just go ahead and come to the Great Jade Kingdom first. I'll catch up with you and protect myself."
