Forensic Imperial Concubine

When Matthew sneaked into the lord's mansion, Rolando took his leave initially. But when he was about to leave, he gave a
meaningful look at Matthew. In Matthew's eyes, that look was full of provocation, but Matthew didn't care it anymore. What he
wanted to know was whether his wife was really pregnant.
Under the candlelight, Harper was reading a medical book, looking for a way to detoxify her brother. It was completely an
accident for her to make the Spiritual Poison. It was not easy to get rid of poison now. With her current physical condition, she
couldn't get the blood of her heart; if she was not careful enough, it might cost her life.
"Are you still looking for a way to make the antidote?" Matthew said and hid himself in the shadow, so no one could see his
expression. Harper didn't look up. She was just scanning the medical book quickly in her hand.
"Well, the Spiritual Poison can't be suppressed for a long time. The sooner I find the way to make the antidote, the better,"
Harper responded quickly. "Have you finished your business?"
"Almost done," Matthew said as he sat down next to Harper and held her wrist. Although he was not a physician, he could feel
her pulse to check if she was pregnant.
When Harper finally looked at Matthew's hand that was holding her wrist, she then steered her attention to his face, saying with a
smile, "It seems that you have already known it."
"When did it happen?" Matthew ask calmly, trying his best to suppress the fear in his heart.
"I don't know. I just found it out," Harper replied after a careful thought
Matthew was provoked by the indifferent attitude of Harper. He questioned at once, "Have you forgotten that you can't be..."
"I'm fine now." Harper took hold of Matthew's hand and smiled wickedly. "I have recovered when I got the inheritance of the
Heavenly Books. The Death Pool was just another method to cure me. Yet, both methods were dangerous to me. Still, I lived
through it. So, you are going to be a father, Matthew."
Matthew sat rooted to the spot in astonishment, and the only thought in his mind was that Harper's body had recovered. He
didn't need to worry that his child would kill her wife, nor did he need to worry that he would irritate her.
"I'm going to be a father!" Matthew felt a little unreal. When Douglas told him that he was going to be a father, he thought that he
was just making fun of him. But when Harper told him that he was going to be a father in person, he felt incredible and happy.

Looking at the man who was in a daze, Harper smiled quietly and added, "Many happy events have happened recently."
"Is there any other good news?" Matthew leaned over and asked with a big smile.
She raised a finger and answered, "It's a secret. I won't tell you now."
"You still have a secret hiding from me?" Matthew thought it was inconceivable. Now he came back to his senses and realized
the meaningful look in Rolando's eyes when Rolando left. Matthew's mind raced quickly. In Phoenix City, Harper didn't have
much contact with many people. She said it was a secret. Therefore, he must be familiar with people related to the secret.
"The secret is about Darren?" he asked at once.
Harper's eyelid twitched. 'Who says women's sixth sense is very accurate? Men's sixth sense is also very terribly accurate. I said
nothing. But he already knew that it has something to do with Darren.'
"Are you good at foretelling?" Harper felt it was unbelievable. If she hadn't known Rolando was with her, she would have thought
that her husband had been with her all the time.
"Since you won't tell me the secret, I guess it is related to man. Also, as you are in this mansion all the time, you can only meet a
few men. There are only two men here; one is the city lord, Derrick, and the other is Darren. It seems that Darren woke up."
Matthew gnashed his teeth slightly. Did Darren want to rob Harper of him by taking the advantage of his injury?
Harper frowned. The sadness flashed on her face. She said in low voice that only the two of them could hear, "Darren is dead.
The people who is alive by Darren's body means a lot to me."
The word 'dead' was a bit surprising to Matthew. He couldn't figure out what Harper's words meant. Something must have been
wrong.
"It seems that I haven't told you that I have an elder brother called Chad Chu," Harper said slowly. "He is not from the Chu Clan
of the Bright Dynasty, but the Chu Family of my last life."
Matthew clenched his fists subconsciously and asked, "Did he come here because he wants to take you back?"
"Don't be silly." Harper shook her head. "I came to this world, because I was dead in my last world. I guess it may be the same
reason that my brother was here."

Hearing her words, Matthew felt relieved. As long as Chad was not here to take Harper away, then he didn't have to worry
anymore. He said, "Then, I have to meet my brother-in-law."
Harper smiled broadly and said, "The top priority now is to develop the antidote for the Spiritual Poison in his body. Otherwise, he
will die."
"We don't have any clues about the man hidden in the dark yet. When you're making the antidote, he won't sit back any longer,"
Matthew said softly. "We'll avenge Darren then."
