Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 865

In an instant, Rolando was gone. He left without even a bit of hesitation.

Watching his receding figure, Lilian crossed her arms on her chest. She then squatted on the ground and began to helplessly cry. She didn't understand why he was treating her like this. Before Harper arrived in the Great Jade Kingdom, Rolando would treat her with utmost care. Even though he didn't love her, she felt content as she enjoyed his attention.

But since Harper started living in the Harmony Palace, Rolando's attitude towards her had changed. His care and consideration gradually disappeared. It seemed like everything that they had in the past were not real. Unfortunately, Lilian was immersed in the delusional world that she had created in her head and she didn't want to wake up.

Soon after, Daisy came into the room and she was very surprised to see the state that Lilian was in. The poor woman looked so distressed and miserable. Daisy quickly picked up her clothes and placed them on her shoulder. "Your Highness, what's wrong? His Majesty seems to be very upset. I've never seen him so furious before."

Lilian was crying so much that she was almost out of breath. With Daisy's help, Lilian walked to the bed and lay on it. She felt very dejected. Rolando's love for her was so superficial, but his love for Harper seemed so real. There was only one person who was allowed to call him by his real name and that happened to be Harper. Not only that, but he would play the zither for her, help her with the dishes, and do something that like an ordinary man would do for the woman he loved. In comparison, Rolando's treatment of Lilian was so different. He didn't even care about her feelings at all.

Staring into nothingness, Lilian asked, "Why am I not as good as her? That woman is so deceitful and cunning. I'm absolutely better than her. Why can't he see my merits?"

"Your Highness, are you all right?" Daisy was startled by Lilian's unusual behavior. She could sense that something had happened between Rolando and Lilian when they were at the Harmony Palace, but she didn't know why. When Lilian didn't answer, Daisy exclaimed, "I'm going to invite Lady Harper over!"

"No! Don't do that! I don't want to see her!" Lilian cried out, raising her voice.

"Your Highness..." Daisy looked at Lilian in bewilderment.

Looking back at Daisy, Lilian saw how surprised the woman was. With a sigh, Lilian closed her eyes, in an attempt to calm herself down. "You can go now. Just leave me alone."

"Yes, Your Highness."

What Lilian hated the most was the fact that she had given her heart and everything she had to Rolando, but it turned out that he didn't love her at all. She hated Harper as well. If it wasn't for her, Rolando wouldn't treat her in such a cruel and unkind manner. Even though she was carrying his child, it really seemed like Rolando didn't care about her.

"Lilian." A voice called out. Lilian suddenly opened her eyes. When she saw the person sitting at the table not far from her, she sat up in surprise as if she could not believe it. "Lilian, how have you been?"

"Francis! It's you!"

Right in front of her was Francis, her sixth brother. He was still dressed in white while looking gentle and serene, but Lilian knew that he was not as harmless as he seemed to be.

"What brings you here?" Lilian asked with caution.

Francis immediately understood what Lilian was thinking. He fidgeted with his jade ring and replied, "I'm here to take revenge on someone."
