Chapter 539 A Visit To Sce (Part Two)
"Are you going to sit face to face with Marquis Pearce and look at each other silently?" Harper asked
teasingly. Jack had told her about how Matthew sat in Pearce''s mansion silently for two hours, thereby
putting Pearce under pressure and forcing him to go to the government office to facilitate the release of
Alexander. Harper was of the opinion that Pearce might still be angry with Matthew. So, if Matthew
were to go to the mansion again, Pearce would expel him out. Therefore, she thought it would be better
if she would apany Alexander to Pearce''s mansion.
"I''ll take him there tomorrow," she said.
"I''ll go with you," Matthew said immediately. He was not going to let his wife, who was feeble and soft-
spoken, face the two who had just lost their only son. If the situation went out of control, he knew that
Harper might not be able to deal with them.
"We will just pay a visit," said Harper, trying to discourage Matthew.
"He is an irritable man and he is likely to hurt others."
"We are not going there to fight. We just want to apologize to them," Harper argued back.
"He has lost his only son. It would be hard for him to control his emotions, and he''s very likely to use
violence against you," Matthew said, not giving up.
"He is not an unreasonable man." Harper once again tried to counter him.
"You can''t expect him to be reasonable when he has just lost his only son. He will use violence and
wouldn''t mind to hurt you."
Harper thought that it was simply impossible to stop her husband. If she continued to refuse him, he
wouldn''t mind doing something way out of the box. So, she simply nodded, "Okay, but remember that
we are not going for a fight. You can''t conflict with them."
"Okay." Matthew was quick to agree this time.
Early next morning, Harper instructed the maids to prepare some gifts for Pearce and Allie. Then they
went to Pearce''s mansion. The steward of the mansion was puzzled seeing Harper and Alexander. But
when he saw Matthew, who was behind the sister and brother, he immediately swallowed his saliva
awkwardly. The sight of Pearce breaking his favorite coral, right after Matthew leaving the mansion
yesterday, suddenly came to his mind. The steward wondered why Matthew woulde again today.
"Please report to Marquis Pearce that Harper Chu hase to visit him," Harper said with a smile.
They hadn''t informed Pearce of their visit in advance, so now they had to wait outside the gate of the
mansion.
"Please wait for a while," the steward requested as he went inside to inform Pearce.
At the moment, Pearce was in his son''s room. While looking at Alban''s personal belongings, he
couldn''t control his grieve and felt a deep sense of loneliness. When he saw the copybook in Alban''s
handwriting, he couldn''t control his outburst.
"My Lord."
Wiping his eyes, Pearce asked in a trembling voice, "What''s the matter?"
"Someone is here to visit you. She said her name is Harper Chu, and she also brings a child," the
steward reported. Since he had never seen Alexander before, and only knew the boy''s name, he had
no idea who Harper was.
However, Pearce did know the name of Matthew''s wife. He asked the steward, "Just two of them?"
"They are with the guest who visited you yesterday, My Lord." The steward looked at Pearce cautiously.
He knew very well that Matthew was someone who was difficult to deal with. He guessed that if he
were to refuse seeing them, Matthew might go crazy and wouldn''t even mind breaking in.
"Tell them to wait in the main hall." Of course, Pearce was aware that he couldn''t refuse Matthew to
enter his mansion, but he could still give him a cold shoulder for a while. If it weren''t for Matthew, his
n would not have been involved in the partisan strife.
Because of her son''s death, Allie had been muddled until a couple of days ago. Recently, she got
better of herself, and now subconsciously walked into her son''s room. There, she found that Pearce
was also present in the room, holding some personal stuff of Alban.
"Pearce."
"Darling why are you here?" Pearce asked in a tone of disagreement. He walked to her and stopped
her. "I will have some people put Alban''s things away. You''d better note here always, or we will
only feel sad."
Allie''s eyes were red and swollen, as she had wept a lottely. Pearce felt so sorry for her. He gripped
her shoulders and said in a soft tone, "Don''t cry anymore. My heart breaks when I see you like this. If
Alban knew how you are now, he would not rest in peace."
"I…" Allie burst into tears. Alban was their only son. In order to take good care of him wholeheartedly,
they decided not to have another child. However, this decision turned out to make them without an
offspring. She not only cried for the loss of her son, but also felt sorry for her husband.
Pearce understood what his wife was thinking. He too was in deep sorrow due to their loss. However,
what had happened had happened, and there was no turning back. He thought he had to try to cheer
up, since it was useless to live in sorrow.
"Prince Matthew and his wife have brought Alexander Chu here. Would you like to see them?" Pearce
asked. He wanted to divert his wife''s attention, as this was the only way to bring her out of her deep
sorrow.
She was confused to hear that. "Prince Matthew and his wife?"

"Alexander Chu is the younger brother of Prince Matthew''s wife. Alexander is here with them."
She wiped her tears. Earlier, she had been of the thought that Alexander was behind Alban''s death.
She was so much enraged that she wished to kill Alexander with her bare hands and wanted to drink
his blood. However, after knowing there were other hidden secrets behind her son''s death, she stopped
being angry with Alexander.
"Let''s go and see them. I owe the boy an apology," she said. In an attempt to seek revenge for her
son''s death, she had been to the prison to hit and curse Alexander. Now that she knew he was not the
real murderer, she thought she had to apologize to him.
Pearce nodded and supported her as they walked to the main hall.
