Forensic Imperial Concubine

Beth trembled with anger as she was forced out of the Joy Inn "Shame on you! Do you really think it's only you the Qin Clan can rely on? Just wait and see. You will come begging us someday."

Matthew stood by the window and watched Beth disappear into the crowd. His tone was serious when he said, "Harp, the Qin Clan should still be in Phoenix City, but they are hiding somewhere. This time they came to you, and maybe it's to gauge your limits."

"I agree. But I'm curious to know what drove them to this. After all these years, they should have known by now that I'm not the one who will make compromise easily." Something had been confusing Harper. If Rolando was a threat to the Qin Clan, they would have come back after he escaped. But why were they hiding? Did his escape endanger them? Or was there something else going on?

"You'll find out soon enough." With how powerful Harper was now, Matthew didn't think the Qin Clan would give up. They must have some hidden plans to exploit her with.

Killing intent stormed out of Matthew as he thought of how the Qin Clan planned to take advantage of his wife. He wouldn't allow anyone to use her or bully her.

Harper frowned. "I am wondering if Felton..."

"If Felton behaves like the rest of the Qin Clan, I will kill them all and start with him. You have been too tolerant of them. You should treat them the way you treated the Chu Clan. Then, the Qin Clan wouldn't dare to be so presumptuous with you." Matthew's voice was cold and cruel.

Staring at him, Harper asked, "Do you think I'm that soft-hearted?"

"It's not that you are soft-hearted. You just blindly believe in the Qin Clan. You know nothing about them. Excluding Felton, do you know any of the other power holders of the Qin Clan?" Matthew looked at Harper and asked seriously. He knew she wasn't reckless enough to decide to help the Qin Clan without knowing all their history and background.

Harper smiled indifferently. "Darling, I have you. Besides, I'm not interested in any members of the Qin Clan except Felton, so there is no need for me to contact them. I helped the clan for Felton's sake. It was mutually beneficial. The Qin Clan provided me with the information I wanted and I found a solution. After all, just like them, I need to solve the whole matter."

"What would you do if Felton betrays you and sides with the other members of the Qin Clan?" Matthew asked calmly, looking into Harper's eyes. If Harper showed any sign of hurt over such a thing happening, he would help her get rid of Felton.

Harper replied sullenly, "Then we will no longer be friends."

She had never rejected the Qin Clan's requests, nor revealed that she'd had any contact with them. When they met in public, she pretended she didn't know Felton to avoid exposing the traces of the Qin Clan. But now it seemed that her thoughtfulness had backfired. It became the reason for the Qin Clan's members, those who had been hiding in the
