Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 838

"Also, about the Qin Clan—"

"Zack, you don't have to worry about me. Both the Qin Clan and the Chu Clan are in the past for me. Right now, Alexander is under the protection of Marquis Pearce, and Gianna is under the protection of Prince Allen. All I need to do is to protect Matthew's mansion," Harper said slowly. She then looked up and added, "Zack, look at the beautiful sky. Sometimes when you do, you will find that there are still a lot of things worth looking forward to and pursuing in the world."

All of a sudden, the light in Zack's eyes dimmed, but he soon returned to normal. "Yes, there are a lot of things that are worth looking forward to in this world. By the way, when will you come back?"

"I haven't decided yet. After I leave for the Great Jade Kingdom, I have to go to the Wonder Kingdom to meet up with an old friend. Speaking of which, I actually want to introduce a friend to you someday," Harper said with a faint smile.

"He must be an interesting person, given that he is a friend of yours," Zack responded. "I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of person he is."

"He's a man who looks a lot like you. During the hardest part of my life, he encouraged me to hold on. He was also the one who helped me find the master who taught me. He is like a brother to me," Harper softly said.

Zack was surprised to see the tender expression on Harper's face. She hadn't shown such an expression even in front of Alexander and Gianna. Therefore, he thought that the person she was talking about must be of great importance to her. But he didn't know about it until now.

"I'm even more curious now. He must be a gentle person."

Harper giggled. "Gentle? No, he's not gentle. Every time it seemed like he was gentle, it would turn out that he was actually planning how to play a prank on me. Unfortunately, I was not a match for him every single time. We're friends, but we're also 'enemies' if you know what I mean."

The corners of Zack's mouth twitched a little. He thought that such a person who could make Harper feel very warm must have a very interesting temperament. "Who is it?"

"He is the young lord of the Phoenix City. His name is Darren."

When he heard the name, Zack was a little surprised. Although Darren seldom appeared in public, no one dared to look down on him. Even outsiders knew that Phoenix City was a strong and indestructible city. But no one knew that eight years ago, the real ruler of the Phoenix City had been Darren, and his father, the former ruler, had already traveled around the world so no one knew where he was.

"Darren is a remarkable man," Zack remarked.

"Really?" She paused as if in serious thought before she continued, "He is powerful and has a very sharp tongue. Aside from that, I haven't found anything special about him."

"But he's the one who can make you admit defeat. Isn't he powerful enough in this regard? As far as I'm concerned, there aren't many people who can make you do that," Zack seriously said.
