Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 849

"What?" The expression on Rolando's face instantly changed when he heard the news. Immediately, he stood up and said, "Harper, you'd better go to the palace with me. After all, you're an outstanding physician. And Lilian will feel less worried once she sees you."

Harper hesitated for a while but eventually nodded her head in agreement. Together with Rolando, she took Forsythia with her on their way to the Great Jade Kingdom's palace. After all, Lilian came from the Bright Dynasty and was Matthew's niece, so Harper couldn't just sit by and watch. If something terrible happened to Lilian at that moment, it would be extremely unfortunate for the Bright Dynasty.

Luckily, Harper's residence was not far from the gate of the capital. The carriage went straight to the palace, unimpeded. Besides, Rolando was with her, so nobody dared stop her from entering the capital.

Harper lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked outside. It was very late in the night by then. Naturally, she couldn't see anybody outside. Under the dim candlelight, she could only hear the sound of the carriage's wheels galloping forward in a rush.

Inside the carriage, Rolando had an impassive expression on his face. Harper thought that he was worried about Lilian, so she tried to comfort him by saying, "Don't worry. Everything will be alright."

Shifting his eyes to Harper's face, Rolando briefly said, "I hope so."

Neither of them uttered one more word throughout their short journey. After entering the palace, they went to where Lilian had been residing right away. After the imperial physician gave a diagnosis and some treatment for her, Lilian was then sitting feebly on the bed. Her face was filled with joy when she saw Rolando enter the room.

"Your Majesty," she greeted him.

Rolando walked steadily and sat down by the bedside. "What happened? Why did you feel uncomfortable so abruptly? Aren't you being attended well by the maids?"

Shaking her head, Lilian said, "No, it's my fault. I was careless. I slipped and fell on the ground. That's why I felt uncomfortable. It had nothing to do with the maids. The imperial physician has checked my condition and said that it was nothing serious. So you don't have to worry about anything."

Rolando breathed a sigh of relief and said, "How could you be so careless? You're carrying a baby right now. You should be more cautious than before."

"I got it. I'll be more careful so that it will never happen again," Lilian said with a wide and satisfied smile on her face. At the sight of this, it was Harper's turn to breathe a sigh of relief. She thought that it seemed like Lilian was finally having a happy ending with Rolando.

All of a sudden, it looked like Rolando had thought of something. He said, "By the way, have a look. There's someone who came to visit you."

Following his line of sight, Lilian shifted her eyes to the door. She immediately saw Harper leaning against the door. She had her arms crossed over her chest while staring at them with a smile. "Aunt Harper," Lilian excitedly called her.
