Forensic Imperial Concubine

Chapter 700 The Scapegoat (Part One)

While looking at Francis' receding figure, Harper gnashed her teeth in anger. If she hadn't controlled herself, she would have eaten him alive. 'How dared he plot against me! Since I became Princess Harper, no one had ever dared to do that. He was the first one.'

Even Forsythia was so surprised that her mind started to wander off. 'If Lady Harper became Prince Francis' wife, how would Prince Matthew react? He would never allow such a horrendous thing to happen!'

"Your Highness, you can't be Prince Francis' wife!"

"Have you lost your mind? Of course, I won't agree to that!" Harper quickly turned to Forsythia, feeling somewhat uneasy. When did Francis start to plot against her? He even made a fake divorce agreement and stole her jade bracelets which Matthew gave to her as a token of their love. If it was only the divorce agreement, Matthew might not believe it. But the bracelets completely changed everything.

"Your Highness, what should we do now?" Nina and Anabel became worried as well. When Harper was imprisoned in the palace, they too were taken there to restrain her while taking care of her. If Harper did anything to try and escape, Francis would threaten her with their lives.

Harper frowned before saying, "Don't worry. It doesn't matter if Matthew received the divorce agreement. If Matthew and I kept the matter a secret, who else would know about the divorce, right?"

The maids looked at each other and felt even more worried. They all thought that Harper was too optimistic. Since Francis had made his move, he wouldn't stop until he got what he wanted.

"Though, I'm afraid that he still has some tricks up his sleeve," Harper added. Now that she was confined in the Sleek Palace, she wasn't able to be updated with what was happening outside. The palace was heavily guarded that even her men couldn't come in to relay information right away. As a result, there was nothing she could do since every move would just be too risky. She really hoped that someone could tell her any news from outside the palace.
