Forensic Imperial Concubine

Chapter 35 Please Pay The Medical Fee

Denny had the medical bath prepared soon. When the guards carried the bath barrel in, they caught sight of Harper quickly pulling out the needles from Matthew's body. His face turned from dark to ashy from the great amount of blood loss.

"Put him in." Wiping the sweat off her forehead, Harper pulled out a porcelain bottle from the pocket of her waist and rattled out three red pills. Without another word, she tilted Matthew's chin up and made him swallow them all.

There was a smell of blood from the pills that made Denny wrinkle his nose. "What are those?"

"Blood-generating Pills," Harper explained, discontented by the fact that she had to use them already. "His Highness already lost too much blood. It's too slow to make up for the lost blood by taking nourishing food, and this would be a quicker way. Alas! He has eaten as much as three pills at a time."

Looking at the pained look of Harper, Denny couldn't help but choke back a laughter. If any other woman was placed in her position, she'd surely do everything in her power to save Matthew. Harper, however, cared about her pills more than Matthew. Denny shook his head incredulously.

"Can I have one?" Denny asked cautiously. He could tell from the expression on Harper's face that the pills were very rare and hard to come by. Were these pills really that effective? He was curious.

Unexpectedly, Harper gave him a pill without hesitation. "It's used as a last resort in dealing with excessive amount of blood loss. I used a lot of herbs to make only ten of them." She shot Matthew a look. "His Highness just wasted three."

'Wasted?' Denny hid a smile, and couldn't help but admire the woman in front of him. Only she would think feeding these pills to Matthew would be a waste. If it were any other physician, it would've been their honor to serve the prince.

"What herbs do you need? You can ask His Highness to compensate for your loss once he wakes up," he suggested.

"Of course His Highness will. If I wasn't planning for this, I would've already left," Harper scoffed, looking at Matthew as if she was looking at a treasure chest. She obviously needed money to run her store. Money was hard to come by, so she wasn't going to throw this opportunity out of the window.

When Matthew finally woke up, the first thing he saw was a pair of shiny eyes. The surprise and delight that shone from them really confused him. Was she really that happy to see him wake up?

"Your Highness, you're awake!" Harper sighed in relief.

Matthew blinked, not at all used to her bubbly attitude. He simply replied with a nod of his head and kept silent.

"Your Highness, please don't tell your guard to bring me here like that again. The way he carried me on his shoulder made me throw up," Harper complained pouting her lips.

Matthew agreed easily.
