Forensic Imperial Concubine

Chapter 75 An Enemy Behind The Attacker (Part Two)

To make sure that this was not just some trap set up by someone else, he asked, "Who is your lady?"

"My lady is the second daughter of Prime Minister Charles," Helen answered without directly uttering Harper's name. "My lady said that the feelings she has for you never changed. Can you see that now?"

Raising his eyebrows, Hansen couldn't help but smile. "I understand. Go back and report to your lady. Let her know that I will definitely come to meet her at the designated place."

"Your Highness, my lady also said that she would have to go out secretly. She's hoping that you won't leak any information about this to anyone, or else, someone may come to bring her harm," Helen said. "My lady doesn't want to cause you any trouble in order to protect your fame. So, I am hoping that you would be able to see her in secret for the sake of the love she has for you."

"I understand. You may leave now." Upon telling her that, Hansen put the letter away and asked one of the servants to show Helen out of here. He decided to heed her advice and didn't tell anyone about it. At that moment, he thought that if he were to find out the truth regarding what transpired that night, he would have a chance to turn it all around. By then, if the emperor came to know that he was innocent, he would give him his title back.

Immediately after Helen had left Prince Kevin's mansion, she headed back to the Chu Clan mansion. Little did she know that Hansen had sent someone to tail her. After seeing her enter the Chu Clan mansion, the servant went back to report to Hansen right away. With that, Hansen, who still had a hint of doubt before, was finally able to put his mind at rest, believing in everything she had told him.

Three days later, Hansen sneaked out of the mansion like he planned. Although the wound on his leg was yet to fully heal, it didn't really affect his walking all that much. After all, the thought of him being able to finally unveil who was pulling the strings behind the scenes helped him forget about the pain in his leg. And without a hitch, he quietly went to the Spring Restaurant to meet up with Harper.

Meanwhile, Harper had also left the Chu Clan mansion. The way she looked made it seem as though she was about to meet the love of her life, all dressed up, charming and lovely. When Felicia saw her leaving, the cold-blooded glare in her eyes could not be concealed. She thought to herself, 'Shameless bitch, you have the audacity to dress up like that? What are you planning to do? Seduce Mister Zack? Sad to say, you don't get the chance to do that. All that's waiting for you is that bastard Hansen!'

Then, Felicia, who was also dressed quite beautifully herself, cautiously left the mansion after Harper was gone. Sue was completely oblivious of everything that was happening. Otherwise, she would have kept a watchful eye on them.

Trying to keep a low profile, Felicia didn't want to grab anybody's attention and quietly walked toward the reserved room. Despite the room being empty, it was elegantly decorated. The sweet smell of burning incense permeated the room, which was rather pleasant. And with thoughts of being able to see the gentle and noble Zack soon filling her mind, she couldn't help but blush.

On the other hand, Hansen had also arrived at their meeting place. However, a surprise blow to the face knocked him unconscious the second he stepped into the room. He couldn't even see who hit him.

A grim smile flickered across Harper's face when she saw Hansen stuck in a coma. Holding a stick in her hand, she put a pill into his mouth and made him swallow it, dragging him toward a cabinet. This cabinet in particular was a little different. From the outside, it would seem ordinary, but in truth, it was actually connected to another cabinet in the adjacent room where Felicia was. That room had been filled with the aphrodisiac.

'Hansen, you fancy Felicia, don't you? Well, she also likes you very much. Now I'm going to do you a favor and fulfill your wish, you shameless couple. Enjoy yourselves!'

Harper then opened the hidden door and pushed the still unconscious Hansen into the cabinet in Felicia's room. She was extra careful to make sure that she wasn't making much noise. Then, she

slowly closed the door and the cabinet. Be that as it might, as soon as she turned around, she found out that there was a person standing right behind her, making her freak out and have cold sweat. When she finally managed to pull herself together and saw who it was, she let out a sigh of relief.

"What are you doing here?"

Looking at Harper, who had just calmed down after a moment of panic, Zack shifted his gaze toward the cabinet and asked, "Is this what you were planning to do all along?"

"Yes, it is." Not bothering to make up any excuses, Harper simply admitted the truth and said, "I won't stop you if you want to expose me."

"Why would I want to expose you?"

"Because I'm doing a bit of matchmaking!" Harper blurted out, albeit hesitantly.

"Matchmaking?" He didn't get what she was trying to say. "What do you mean by that?"

"It's just like what a procuress does." Harper might be open-minded, but she still became red-flushed. After all, why would Zack ask such an innocent question?

"Oh, just a piece of advice. Next time if you're going to do something like this, you should just let the servants handle it." As he said that, Zack walked over to the table and took a seat. After a while, they heard a knock upon the door and someone came in to serve them some tea.

"Do you intend to stay here?" Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

"Since I sent you a letter to ask you out, of course it would be better to just make it real. Otherwise, the truth will be revealed after someone checks it." After pouring a cup of tea, Zack went ahead and put it

in front of Harper. "Please take a seat and enjoy a cup of tea with me. The show over there won't be starting anytime soon anyway."

At that moment, Harper was thinking, 'Alright, so this is what I have to do. If Zack dares to expose me, I will have to get him involved in this matter in some way.'
