Forensic Imperial Concubine by Erika Black

Chapter 948

"Lady Harper, what poison is it?" Derrick, who until then was keeping silent, suddenly asked.
Harper looked at Derrick, her eyes deep and undecipherable. Even though she couldn't bear to tell him the truth, she had to.
"Darren was drugged by the Spiritual Poison, and... I still haven't worked out an antidote yet."
"What do you mean, Harper?" Daphne asked, staring at her shocked and confused.
Harper knew that the man in black she hurt a while back must have known her relationship with Darren. Because of that, he
injured Darren to get an antidote out of her. But Harper didn't expect that the man would have hurt Darren so much that he
almost died!
"I'm the only one I know who has the Spiritual Poison. There's no antidote, because I haven't made one," Harper explained as
she took a deep breath.
Hopelessness grasped Daphne immediately, and she was trembling and staggering backward as she couldn't believe what she
just heard. "Harper, do you mean that Darren... will die?"
Harper didn't respond or even look at Daphne. Instead, she just looked at Darren. Although his lips hadn't turned darker purple,
she knew that he still hadn't been detoxified. And if she wanted to detoxify him, she must develop an antidote first. She was the
only person who could do that.
"I won't let him die, Daphne. That's a promise."

Though still unsure about what would happen to his brother, Daphne calmed down mainly because she had great trust in Harper.
"But wait. You said you are the only one who has this Spiritual Poison. Then, how could Darren be poisoned?"
"To know that, we have to locate the assassin I attacked last night." Harper's expression continued to be grim as she looked at

We weren't able to defeat him, and in order to save our lives, I had to inject the leader some of the Spiritual Poison I had made before. I wasn't planning on using it to other people, but as we were faced with an emergency last night, I had to. It was the first time I used it. What I didn't know was that he

it because she never thought she would ever use it. Now that all of these were happening, she had no choice but to make the antidote as soon as possible! "But Harper, will you be able to create an antidote to it?" Daphne

Harper knew there was a pharmacy in the lord's mansion, so she immediately asked someone to take her there.
Upon arriving, Harper immediately turned to Matthew. "Darling, I will stay here for some time to develop the antidote," she told
him. "I will keep you company. You know, just in case you forget to eat or something," Matthew responded.
Harper just smiled and followed a servant to the pharmacy. Derrick watched her leave and then coughed. Daphne turned around
and asked, "Father, are you okay?"
"I'm fine. I just don't know when Her Highness would be able to finish the antidote. Will Darren be able to hang on?" Derrick said
every word slowly, as he already had difficulty speaking.

tell what it was. "Don't worry, Father. Since Harper had already said that she would do her best, I'm sure that she will find a way to save Darren. And while she does, I will hunt for the villain who hurt him!" A glimmer of light flashed across Derrick's eyes. "Darren..."
