Forensic Imperial Concubine

For the past few days, Ken had been taking his men to annihilate Francis' force. In the middle of it all, they found someone who took them by surprise. When the person was taken back to Matthew's mansion, everyone was too stunned to speak because they had all thought that the person in front of them was already dead.

Harper was no exception. She couldn't believe her eyes. After reaching out to carefully touch the person's face, she said, "You're real. Everyone, he's not fake."

The person in front of her—Jack, wanted to cry but he didn't have any tear. "Your Highness, how could you have been so heartless? If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been captured by Prince Francis!" he complained.

Harper pointed at her own nose with her finger. With an innocent expression on her face, she asked, "Did it have anything to do with me?"

Even while listening to Harper at that moment, Jack felt extremely weak. Since he fell into Francis' hands, he had been imprisoned for nearly a year. In the beginning, there had been someone who was constantly observing him and imitating his movements, tone, and martial arts skills. He was locked up in a black prison and there was nothing he could do to escape. But every time he pondered on the person's purpose for closely observing and copying him, he was so furious that his whole body trembled with anger.

"One of Francis' followers was disguised as your maid. That was how they fooled me into their trap," Jack explained, wishing he could cry out. The entire time which he had been abducted, he actually thought that Harper's maid had betrayed her. He didn't have any idea that it was an enemy's trick. Thus, he had walked into the trap and been captured. What was more horrible was that someone had disguised as him and gone back to Matthew's mansion. Even Jack couldn't figure out any difference between the fake one and himself.

What's more, Harrison had been guarding the south domain for many years, so he must still have some spies hidden deeply in the south domain's army.
