Forensic Imperial Concubine by Erika Black

Chapter 947

When they got back to Matthew's base outside the city, Felton had already woken up. As he still felt so weak, he decided to rest
first, leaning against a soft cushion. However, as soon as he saw Harper come in, he immediately sat up straight.
"Lie down, you, and don't move too much. I don't want to be worried about you when I'm not around," Harper said as soon as
she saw Felton.
Upon seeing Harper back, Patrick immediately ran to her, wanting to be in her arms. But thinking back to the time when it
thought that she had thrown it away and left just like that, it decided to ignore her.
Harper immediately picked up on what Patrick was angry about and chuckled. Quickly, she lifted it up, sat down on a small stool
by the bed, and gently rubbed its head. Patrick, previously angry, now looked blissful and enjoyed Harper and her company. "To
further appease you, my friend, have this," Harper said, handing Patrick a pill. And with that, it had fully forgotten what it was
angry about in the first place.
"How could you be so reckless? Really? Going to the Qin Clan's residence alone?" Felton said, sounding concerned. Though his
voice was a little weak, the emotion behind his statement was potent. "The top elders were all there. Were you not scared of
getting hurt? Worse, killed?"
Harper smiled and sighed deeply. "I just wanted to investigate the Qin Clan, Felton. Now that I found out that they had betrayed
us a long time ago, I won't let them near you. Ever."
Felton's expression turned grim. While he was the clan's nominal young master, he knew nothing about that. Moreover, he had
even allowed them to bring him back home, which almost ended up hurting Harper. For a moment, he didn't know what to say.
"I'm sorry. I made a grave mistake. I put you in danger."
Harper waved her hand to signal Felton to stop. She then said indifferently, "Stop. That doesn't really matter now. The Qin Clan
has always regarded you as a pawn. I'm just relieved that you know it now. But I won't ask you to deal with them—you can't get
involved. It's better if you stay on the sidelines."
"What are you going to do?" Felton asked, hesitating. He didn't want to merely become an onlooker, especially because
everything was connected to him.
"I won't do anything rash. Don't worry. I just want to wait and see what they're going to do. Both you and Douglas are in my
hands. However, I don't know if Lady Victoria still wants Douglas," replied Harper.

This surprised Felton. He wondered if the Qin Clan had been in total chaos ever since Harper suddenly came to their residence
to take not only him but Douglas as well.
"Douglas..."

"You should rest now, Felton. Don't think about anything now, please. Focus on recovering for the moment." Harper flashed him
a firm smile. "Leave everything to me."
"Harper..."
"Listen to me, Felton. I can't really help you rebuild your muscles, bones, and whatnot right now. When you get better and can
overcome the pain of doing that, I'd be able to help you. But before that, I'll go to see Douglas first and ask if he is willing to
cooperate with me," Harper continued.
"What if... he doesn't want to cooperate with you?"

Since Samuel had been serving Felton for a long time, it would reasonable to ask him to continue providing him his services. When Harper got out, Matthew, who was already waiting outside, immediately spoke. "Shall we...?" "Go to Phoenix City?" Harper completed, her voice calm. "I'm very curious about the identity of the person who tried to kill Rolando." Matthew knew that Harper already had a suspect in mind. He also knew that she wanted to confirm it, so she wanted to go to Phoenix City. They immediately made their way to the city on horseback. As soon as they arrived, they immediately saw Daphne wandering around. When she saw them, she immediately walked up to them and asked, "Where have you been? You didn't come back last

were really sent by Darren, he wouldn't have allowed Daphne to come to her.
Harper looked at Matthew, and he merely comforted her with his eyes. 'Calm down. We would know whether it was Darren or not
after we check it out.'
A black cloud hung over the city lord's mansion due to Darren's injuries. Every servant there walked cautiously and quietly, for
fear that they would offend the masters and thus, be punished.
Physicians were continuously going in and out of Darren's room. Everyone's face was unusually serious. It could be seen that he
was hurt badly.
Daphne dragged Harper in and said, "Step aside, everyone."
Hearing Daphne's voice, the physicians made way for them. Then, they found a middle-aged man sitting on the bedside, whose
face was full of worry. "Father, you're back," Daphne greeted.
The middle-aged man turned around and showed the vicissitudes of life on his handsome face. "Yes, where have you been?"
"I was looking for her for help." Daphne pulled Harper's arm and walked to the lord, Derrick Feng. "Father, this is a good friend of
mine and Darren's, Harper Chu. She is an excellent physician."
"Lord Derrick." Harper looked calm and glanced at Darren lying on the bed. His lips turned blue and a hidden weapon was thrust
in his chest. The bleeding was stopped, but the hidden weapon hadn't been pulled out.

Harper gave Daphne a reassuring look. Then she carefully checked the weapon on Darren's wound. The weapon was very special, and it was a lotus arrow. The wound was so deep
