Forensic Imperial Concubine

"Matthew, I missed you. I missed you so, so much." Harper lay in Rolando's strong arms without knowing that it wasn't Matthew. Actually, there was no way for her to come to this realization: Fantasy's effect was too potent for her to fight.

Rolando once again felt his heart being crushed so hard that he could hardly breathe. As much as he was enjoying Harper being this romantic towards him, his pride would not allow him to be a substitute for another man. When he finally made up his mind and tried to push Harper away, she looked at him in the eye, her expression sweet and innocent, and asked, "Did you miss me like I missed you?"

At that point, Rolando finally admitted to himself that he loved Harper more than he thought. His self-control, which he was proud of, then completely collapsed in a matter of seconds. 'She hasn't even done anything to you! She just asked whether you missed her!' he thought. With a sigh, he accepted that even if Harper was seeing Matthew instead of him, he would not be able to refuse her.

"Of course, I do. I miss you so much. I even want to hug you tightly and swallow you alive!" Rolando wanted to indulge himself. For this one time, he didn't want to think about the consequences of doing so. Even if in the end, Harper would hate him for the rest of her lifetime, he needed to have her. That was how crazy he was over her!

Rolando's rationality had finally abandoned him. It wasn't hard to see that all of this was just someone's evil plan to ruin his relationship with Harper, but he no longer wanted to care about all of that. He wouldn't deserve to continue being a man if he still tried to control himself when the woman he wanted so much was right in front of him, practically begging him to be with her.

Rolando then passionately kissed Harper, the woman he had longed for the longest time. Even though he had told himself countless times that he had no feelings for her and that all he wanted to do was to use her to put his plans into action, at that moment, he became honest enough to admit that he had already fallen in love with this woman unconsciously, and that he couldn't stop himself from doing so!

"Harper, I love you!" Rolando said affectionately. Unbeknownst to him, it was this sentence that woke Harper up from her stupor. Shocked at what was happening, she pushed Rolando away in an instant.

Rolando was taken aback by Harper's unexpected move. As he dropped to the ground, he looked at Harper with astonishment. Harper shook her head hard. 'The person on the ground has the familiar face of Matthew, but for some reason, I know that he is not Matthew!' she thought. Because Matthew had always been the jealous type, he never called her 'Harper' the way every other people in her life called her. If he was in a good mood, he would call her Harp. If he was angry or anything else, he would call her by her full name.
