"My master's last name is Chu." Robert answered as he turned the carriage around and drove away.
The assistant pondered Robert's words carefully. Was the man in the carriage actually Princess Harper?
He had heard a lot about Matthew and knew that the prince spoiled his wife so much that he would give her whatever she asked,
no matter what it was. If anyone offended her, he would torture those who infuriated her. Since Pearce had barged into the
government office today, could it be possible that he had also been intimidated by Matthew?
Thinking of that, the assistant ran to the office at once. He must remind the mayor that compared with Pearce, Matthew was the
one to whom he must pay greater honor and respect. If they offended Pearce, they would be kicked into the mud. Yet if they
offended Matthew, they could only guess how much time they had left to live.
In the office, Hollis was still perplexed about the murder, and his assistant brought back more confusing news. He was irritated
by it. "Don't exaggerate the situation here!"
"My Lord, I do not ring any undue alarms. Princess Harper went to the prison in person, and took Alexander Chu away. If she

sides?"

When Hollis arrived at the inn, he found that the prince and his wife had already checked out and were staying in the official inn of the River City, proclaiming their identity to the public. With no delay, Hollis turned his steps quickly to the official inn. When he arrived at the official inn, he was accosted by a guard. And when he stated his identity, the guard told him that Matthew was busy. Indeed, the

Don't you know that?" Matthew now decided to teach Harper about the relevant custom. "According to the custom, men and women should not sleep in the same bed after they become seven years old. He is already

Alexander then said in a low voice, "Harper, I can do it myself."
"I just want to see if he has any injuries, and bathing him will make the examination more convenient!"
"Impossible!" Matthew took Harper out of the room. "Take a bath by yourself, Alexander. Your sister will come to see you later."
"Yes, Matthew," Alexander said immediately. He also didn't want his sister to bathe him. After all, he had grown up. He knew that
men and women had to be treated differently. Yet, he hadn't dared to refuse his sister's kind offer. Thanks to Matthew's
