Chapter 737 Became The King''s Son-inw (Part One)
Harper had thought that the envoy team would take another couple of days to reach the capital of the
South Kingdom. But to her surprise, the team arrived just one dayter than she did. Moreover, after
the team entered the capital, Becky immediately found her.
Becky stood face to face with her and gave her an angry stare. Looking at the angry face of the
woman, Harper said nothing. She was calm and collected and just stared back at Becky.
"Here you are! You are really something, Your Highness! You have made your arrival at the capital of
the South Kingdom so early! I thought you would die of a poisonous insect or snake bite!" Becky was in
a terrible mood. To catch up with Harper and Matthew, she pressurized the envoy team to hurry on with
their journey overnight, so they could reach the capital sooner.
After taking a sip of tea leisurely, Harper broke her silence. "Sorry to disappoint you. Those poisonous
insects and snakes were afraid of me and didn''t dare to attack me."
"Humph!" Becky snorted and ignored Harper as she found a ce to sit down. As soon as she sat
down, there was a noise from outside. However, she was still angry with Harper since thetter had
gotten rid of her, so she didn''t pay attention to the noise.
On the other hand, Harper was just standing by the window, casually watching the ceremonial
procession passing by down the stairs. When the wind blew the curtain of the sedan chair, Harper saw
the people sitting inside—it was Francis, who had fled away from the imperial capital of the Bright
Dynasty.
"His Majesty''s son-inw looks so handsome." People downstairs kept talking amongst themselves
about the person in the sedan chair.
Harper was shocked to hear their talks. If Francis had be Lance''s son-inw, then which princess
did he marry? Could it be Diana?
"Our princess is so beautiful, and her husband is so handsome. The two of them make a perfect
couple. Her Highness remained single for so many years, and now she finally chose a husband she
truly loves. That''s something great."
Overhearing the people downstairs, Harper couldn''t help but look at Francis with fresh eyes. When the
situation was not good for him, he would yield. Now, to get the support of the South Kingdom, he didn''t
hesitate to marry Diana.
"He is really something!" Harper said in an ironic tone. Becky, who had been sulking over alone, had
also walked to the side of the window and cast her greedy eyes on the person in the sedan chair. The
affection reflected in her eyes waspletely caught by Harper.
Matthew made noment on what Francis had done. Deep in his heart, he knew that Francis was a
fierce and powerful person. He was flexible, cunning and ruthless. When he fled away from the imperial
capital of the Bright Dynasty, not even once did he care about Sherry, his mother. Lucas had ordered
Sherry tomit suicide after he took the throne and became the new emperor.

Suddenly, the curtain of the sedan chair was opened. Francis looked out and his sight fell precisely on
Harper. There was a stream of emotions flowing through his eyes, which Harper couldn''t understand,
and neither did she want to understand. She just looked at Francis coldly, as if they were strangers.
There was no trace of affection in her eyes or on her face.
Contrarily, Becky blushed instantly at the sight of Francis'' gaze. Seeing this, Harper smiled, knowing
that Becky was really in love with Francis. If it weren''t for Becky''s help, Francis wouldn''t have possibly
escaped from the Imperial Pce in the first ce. When she saw that the man she loved and whom
she had helped wholeheartedly had now turned out to be the husband of a princess of the South
Kingdom, she didn''t look angry but grateful. Harper really couldn''t understand what she was thinking.
"Hey, don''t you think the princess'' husband is quite charming?" Harper asked in a low voice.
As soon as she heard Harper''s question, Becky suddenly came back to her senses. Shifting her gaze
to Harper, she said, "I don''t know what you''re talking about."
"Oh dear, you really don''t understand what I am talking about?" Harper asked with a forced smile.
"Who would have expected this? Prince Francis of the Bright Dynasty is now the husband of Princess
Diana of the South Kingdom. After all, Diana used to be Prince Hoffman''s woman. Does it mean that
the two brothers shared the same wife?"
"Shut up!" Becky angrily yelled at Harper. "Your Highness, you may be Prince Matthew''s wife, but that
doesn''t mean that you can talk any nonsense!"
Harper snorted at her. "You know very well about this nonsense. Maybe the rtionship between Diana
and Hoffman was unknown to many, but you were more than aware of it, right?"
Of course Becky knew it. All the records maintained in the Secret Pavilion were about secrets unknown
to the public. So she was aware of the dubious rtionship between Diana and Hoffman. She
understood that Diana was not the best choice for Francis, and neither did she like Francis to be
Diana''s husband. But she thought it was okay as long as Francis liked Diana.
Since she didn''t want to argue with Harper, Becky turned around and left. Now that she saw Francis
with her own eyes, she was finally relieved. That person was indeed telling the truth to her. Francis was
fine, though he didn''t fit the identity of Diana''s husband.
As soon as Becky left, Harper''s face darkened. Looking at the receding procession, she said,
"Something is wrong with Luther."
"Why do you say that?" Matthew asked in a t tone. In fact, he too knew that Luther was questionable.
That was the reason he had transferred Shawn to the south domain for help. He had done that as a
backup, but what totally surprised him was that all the threemanders of the Bright Dynasty in the
south domain were disloyal to Lucas.
"Francis has be Lance''s son-inw now," Harper sneered. Luther had already met Francis, but he
didn''t mention it to the couple that Francis had married a princess of the South Kingdom. But why didn''t
he reveal it to them? There could be just one reason for it and that was because he was helping
Francis to hide the truth from the couple.
"This helps you in confirming that there''s something wrong with Luther, right?" Matthew asked with a
smile. "But I am sure that you must have suspected him much earlier."
