Forensic Imperial Concubine

"I always know that you treat me the best, darling," Harper said. A bright smile bloomed on her face, giving out tender light on that cold night.

A few moments after then, it began to snow again. The whole River City was covered in white, casting a magical glow all over the place.

When Harper woke up the next morning, Matthew wasn't by her side. Instead, Forsythia was standing by the bed. Seeing that Harper was finally awake, she asked, "Your Highness, you're awake. It's snowing outside very heavily. Would you like to go out and have a look?"

"Help me freshen up," Harper stated, ignoring Forsythias' question. Harper got up, got dressed, and freshened up. Only after then did she asked, "Where is Matthew?"

"His Highness went out when it began snowing last night and hasn't come back yet. He said that he was going to deal with something. He took Fred with him and left Barry here in the official inn to protect you." Forsythia promptly explained the situation.

"What is Alexander doing right now?" Harper asked.

"He's reading. He said that he had been skipping a lot of courses these days, so he wants to take this opportunity to catch up. He's actually very focused and determined about his studies." Forsythia couldn't help but praise Alexander. She then added, "Earlier, I cooked ginseng soup for him in order to build up his immune system so that his health won't be affected with all the studying that he's doing. Just rest your heart at ease, Your Highness."

"Has Alexander had his breakfast yet?"

"Not yet, I'll have someone send breakfast to his room later."

"No, just let him go downstairs for breakfast. If he stays in his room all day long, he may feel miserable," Harper commanded. Studying hard was a good thing, but he shouldn't let it affect his own health because of it.

"Yes, Your Highness."
