Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 935

The reason why Francis told Harper what happened to Felton was because he wanted to see how she was going to react to it. Back then, she had made a move without any hesitation because of what he himself had done. What would she do if it were someone from the Qin Clan? To be more specific, when it came to this case, he was curious about whether or not Harper would be as cold and ruthless as she was before.

After Francis left, Harper didn't make any moves or take any immediate action. She and Matthew just kept living their normal lives, eating, sleeping and being happy all around, as if the dealings concerning the Qin Clan had nothing to do with her.

The next day, Darren came to visit Harper. After exchanging formalities, he went straight to the point and handed Harper a pile of documents. "Here you go; it's all you asked for."

"Thank you, Darren."

"We are friends. There is no need for those polite words," Darren said.

Harper only smiled as she took the documents and leafed through them one by one. During this process, Darren noticed that a man was standing by the window—Matthew. He started to study him. It had been rumored that he was a merciless and bloodthirsty man, but from what he was sensing, the man was abnormally calm and peaceful.

"I've heard that Your Highness is a bloodsucking monster. Now that I've met you in person, I don't think that's true," Darren suddenly admitted. "Well, at least, I don't feel any murderous intent from you right now," he added.

"I'm not a lunatic that would kill without reasons," returned Matthew, his facial expression unchanging.

Darren choked, but not because he felt embarrassed. Actually, he immediately turned to Harper and said, "Well, His Highness is really so straightforward."

Still going through the files in her hand, Harper said without even looking at Darren, "He's been like that as far as I remember. Just don't pay too much attention to it, and you will get used to it in no time."

Playing with the tea cup in his hand with an unreadable smile, Darren did not continue to make jokes about Matthew. But his opinion about Matthew did change. He had heard many rumors about him, but now that he had seen him in person, he realized that this man was not as terrifying as people had said he was.

"The whole Qin Clan are actually hiding themselves from the rest of the world. As for why they have done it, I have no clue just yet. Do you want me to dig into it?" Darren asked, changing the topic. His voice was so pleasing to the ear and somehow incredibly relaxing. It was just like the wind blowing in one's face on a hot day.

Harper shook her head and said, "Since they chose to hide away, it meant that they don't want to get in touch with people. Since they don't want to have anything to do with people not in their clan, I will respect that and won't bother them. After all, they have already been living a relatively quiet life for 20 years. Disturbing them is the least of my desires."

"A clear, rational head you have," said Darren.
