Forensic Imperial Concubine

Chapter 723 Suitable For Marriage (Part One)

Harper was puzzled for a moment seeing Becky Liu, the chief guard of the Secret Pavilion on the mission. 'Why would the woman guarding the Secret Pavilion come with us?' she wondered.

She gave a glance at Matthew that seemed to ask why Becky Liu would come with them to the South Kingdom.

Matthew glanced at Becky Liu for a second, and then said in a low voice, "She was afraid that something might be wrong with the thing you took away. So, in order to monitor you, she will follow you wherever you go."

"Did Lucas agree to this?" What an excuse! Even if Becky Liu were to follow her everywhere, Harper was confident that she wouldn't be able to take the tripod back.

"He was too tired of her badgering that he agreed." Matthew put down the curtain of the carriage and held Harper in his arms. "It's a long way to the South Kingdom. You'd better get some rest at the beginning of our trip when the road is smooth. The road will be bumpy later on. It would be difficult for you to sleep then, even if you want to."

Resting her head on Matthew's lap, Harper gazed at his face. He was reading a book on strategy. She felt he looked even more handsome while they were alone and he didn't put on the poker face. She was absorbed in looking at his angular face and could not help laughing.

Hearing her giggle, he looked down and asked, "What's so funny?"

"People always say that you're as hard as the ice on a snowy mountain peak, too difficult to melt even after thousands of years. But I don't think so. I think you are so good-looking that I feel fascinated by you. I'm so glad that I have such a man as my husband," Harper said with a smile.
