Forensic Imperial Concubine

Chapter 589 The Scapegoat (Part One)

With her arms wrapped around Matthew's neck, Harper said with a charming smile, "Darling, is the show for today's birthday banquet very interesting?"

"Do you really want to know?" Matthew asked with amusement when he saw that Harper's face was filled with interest.

"Although I have my personal guesses about the result, it will be interesting to hear it from you." Harper was an excellent manipulator. By flattering Matthew, she had found a way to make him say what she wanted.

"Walden was stripped off his royal titles and was demoted as a commoner. He was also banished to the southeast. Meanwhile, Felix is under house arrest." Matthew had stated his words so casually but it made Harper speechless for a few moments. Because of her reaction, the smile in Matthew's eyes became more obvious.

"Is that all? It should be a very exciting story. Why did it become so pale and boring when you said it?" Harper asked, refusing to accept that there wasn't more to the story.

"I summarized it for you and made it as simple as possible. Isn't that what you want?" Matthew didn't forget that when Harper saw the files on his table the other day, she said that there was a lot of nonsense in those files. He was rather surprised to see how annoyed she was at that point. She even suggested that his men should write the files in a simple and straight to the point manner. If their reports were still full of so much nonsense, they should be severely punished. Now, he only did what she had suggested before, didn't he?

Since stories are meant for entertainment, they should be amusing. The more strange and diverting elements there are, the better."
