Chapter 615 Showing His Identity (Part One)


    When Lilian heard that Francis wanted to send someone with a congrattion present to Matthew''s


    mansion, she immediately volunteered to be the bearer. Francis epted her offer. He gave the gift


    directly to her and asked her to send it to Matthew''s mansion.


    In just a few days, the news of Harper''s pregnancy had spread throughout the imperial capital. Some


    people were happy, some worried, and some disdainful. No matter what happened outside, it was


    harmonious inside Matthew''s mansion.


    "Your Highnesses, a visitor hase to see you," Noah reported when he came in. "He says that he is


    an old friend of yours. He wants to express his gratitude to you for the carriage that you once gave


    him."


    "The carriage?" Matthew repeated. He was puzzled by this, at first. But after a brief moment of


    consideration, he realized who was outside demanding to see him. Without raising his head or making


    any hesitation, he answered, "I won''t see him. Send him away."


    "He said he would like to meet Lady Harper if you don''t want to see him. He said that fate has brought


    him here to meet her, and that Lady Harper might need his help." Noah delivered the message


    carefully. It seemed to him that the man outside might be difficult to get along with, despite a kind


    demeanor.


    Upon hearing this news, Matthew frowned a bit and seemed a bit displeased to hear Harper mentioned


    like that. At that moment, Matthew was forcing Harper to eat some health food. As she was not


    enjoying it, she was wondering how to get out of there. Noah''s report came at just the right time. She


    made an excuse and said at once, "We should be happy to wee an old friend who travels to us


    from afar. Noah, please show him to the front hall."


    "Yes, Your Highness,"N?velDrama.Org holds this content.


    Noah replied at once. Seeing that Harper was about to wee the guest, Noah left at once to


    prepare. Since Harper was pregnant, he knew that he had better obey her orders no matter what she


    said. Otherwise, she would be as likely to lose her temper with the servants as she would at Matthew.


    "You''ve just met him once and he is still practically a stranger to you. I don''t think there is any need for


    you to meet him!" Matthew talked back at once, trying to stop his wife from seeing that man. He would


    always grow unhappy whenever he remembered the time Harper gave the carriage to Felton. Now that


    man was bold enough toe to their house. Such cheek!


    "It doesn''t matter. Let''s see what he''s up to," Harper said in a spoiled way as she took her husband''s


    arm. "Come on. Let''s go. The imperial physician has advised us that pregnant women should take


    walks. I should exercise for a bit. Don''t you agree?"


    "All right," Matthew said helplessly, finally surrendering. Although he didn''t want Harper to meet Felton,


    he knew he was powerless to stop it. Matthew was well aware that Felton was a shrewd man. Even if


    he could stop them from meeting this time, it was very likely that Felton would try some other means to


    see Harper. Thinking of this, he thought it would be better to let them meet with each other


    straightforwardly today.


    When Felton looked at the calligraphy hanging in the front hall, a touch of appreciation shed through


    his eyes. Every character and every stroke of the calligraphy were sharp and powerful as iron. It made


    people feel encouraged. With just a nce at it, people could feel a strong and deadly aura rushing to


    their face from the calligraphy. It gave people the same feeling when they were face to face with


    Matthew. With that thought, Felton guessed that this calligraphy was written by Matthew. He had to


    admit that Matthew was indeed an impressive man in every respect.


    "Felton, I didn''t expect to see you again so soon," Harper said as she and Matthew walked in arm in


    arm. Obviously, they were a happy couple. Harper had a radiant smile, while Matthew''s facial


    expression was cool. The two different auras, rather than conflicting, were actually in perfect harmony.


    As Felton let his eyes settle upon Harper, he sighed, "We separated that day in such a hurry. As you


    seemed to be a proud and self-respecting person, I was amazed that you would stay with Prince


    Matthew, who is a married man. I did not imagine that you were actually his wife until this moment."


    Harper smiled gently and answered, "When I travel around, it can be inconvenient to wear women''s


    clothes. Since I and my husband are always travelling together, for our convenience, I have to wear


    men''s clothes."


    "Prince Matthew, I think you two love each other very much," Felton said. Truth be told, his mellifluous


    voice was quite pleasant to the ear.


    Matthew and Harper sat down on the main seats, and they told the maid to prepare a seat for Felton.


    He did not refuse. He then said, "I''m here to thank you for your kindness that day. Your gift of the


    carriage helped me very much, and I couldn''t be more grateful for that. It is a pleasant surprise to


    discover your true identity. Ha ha."


    "Would Felton be your real name, if I may ask?" Harper inquired.


    "Yes, of course. I never use any false name," Felton replied honestly. The smile on his face was as


    pure as the white snow of the mountains, an amiable quality which many people found soothing.


    "Then, do you have any family in the imperial capital?" Harper asked again slowly, in a meaningful


    tone.


    "Yes, I did." The smile on Felton''s face didn''t change. He was telling the truth: he had family here once.


    But it was all over. The fact was, all his family had been ughtered. Properly speaking, there was only


    one rtive of his in the imperial capital now.


    Harper blinked her eyes, which were welling up with emotion. "Do you mean the Qin n which was


    exterminated sixteen years ago?"


    Felton had not anticipated such a forward question. Stunned for a moment, he then looked to Matthew.


    ''The ones who murdered the Qin n were the secret guards of the royal family, and he is a member


    of the royal family. Isn''t he afraid of her finding out the truth?'' he pondered inwardly, unsure of what was


    on Matthew''s mind.


    Shortly, he drew himself together and then looked straight at Harper.


    "Yes," he answered. This single affirmation, sincere and unambiguous, made Harper know without a


    doubt that Felton was from the Qin n. This fact made him her family.


    Taken aback by Harper''s frankness, he had never intended to dere his identity so straightforwardly.


    At this point, Harper had no idea what to say next.


    Seeing that Harper said nothing more, Matthew asked on her behalf, "There are still some people from


    the Qin n surviving, right?" He knew this was the thing she cared about most, for the time being.


    "Not really. Actually, there is only one rtive who still lives in the imperial capital," Felton replied slowly


    as he shifted his eyes to Harper. "The rest of them are just side branches of the Qin n, and Harper


    is the only one left on the direct branch."


    That was to say, the Qin n in the imperial capital had all been eliminated except for her. "What''s the


    real connection between the Heavenly Books and the Qin n?" Harper asked abruptly.


    "Well, if you want to know, I''m afraid you may need to study the Qin n more deeply and find it at the


    n''s library. I have no idea about it, either." Although Felton did not look strong, no one who knew him


    would regard him as a weak man. At that moment, Harper felt the forces inside her body fluctuating


    more and more violently, as if with some strange resonance.
