Chapter 813 A Sessful And Safe Child Birth (Part One)
In the middle of the dinner, the atmosphere suddenly became more tensed. Lucas moved his chair
closer to Zack and asked, "Zack, did I say something wrong?"
"Your Majesty, aren''t you hungry?" Zack asked while he stretched out his hand, picked up a chicken
leg, and forcibly ced it into Lucas'' mouth. After that, he continued, "Eat more and talk less. Or, do
you want to go back to the Imperial Pce to have dinner?"
Desperately shaking his head, Lucas felt quite confused. He didn''t think that there was anything wrong
with his question, so he wondered why everyone else was reacting as if he said something
unforgivable.
"We won''t stay in the imperial capital for long. We might actually go to the Wonder Kingdom. After
making a diagnosis and possibly curing Wendy, we''ll probably go," Matthew slowly said after being
silent for quite a while.
"You''re going to leave again?" Zack asked, very much surprised to hear this news. He always felt like
as time went by, Harper went farther and farther away from him. It felt as if they were no longer in the
same world. Even though she was sitting right in front of him at that moment, he still felt like she was a
thousand worlds away.

Raising her head to look at Zack, Harper said, "We have to take a trip to the Wonder Kingdom because
there''s something that I have to do there. But we won''t leave before we have settled everything in the
imperial capital."
Despite what she said, it still made Zack''s heart jump for a second. ording to what she said, it could
mean that she was going to leave the Bright Dynasty, not for a short period of time, but for long, or
perhaps, she would nevere back.
"Will youe back?" Zack couldn''t help but ask while staring at Harper with subtle intensity. He knew
that he was just a feeble schr who couldn''t be around her all the time. But he was willing to stay in
the Bright Dynasty''s imperial capital just to wait for her, if she were toe back.
"Yes, I will. I just have a lot of things to do. But my home is still here, so of course I''lle back,"
Harper firmly said.
Upon hearing that, Zack heaved a sigh of relief. He was d to hear how much the Bright Dynasty
meant to her and more importantly, that he could see her again. Although he didn''t know what she was
going to do outside of the Bright Dynasty, he thought that it was enough to know that eventually, she
was going back to the imperial capital.
"Young master!" All of a sudden, the door was pushed open and a young man rushed in. "Young
master, something happened! Lady Caroline is about to give birth to her baby. The Lord and Lady are
on the way to the Kong n''s mansion. They told me here to inform you of this news."
"Caroline is about to give birth?" Zack asked for confirmation, a little baffled about the sudden news. At
the same time, he stood up, prepared to leave at any second. Following him, Harper stood up as well.
"I''ll go with you," she said.
"Okay."
The two of them quickly left, while Matthew and Lucas remained to their seats, without moving. Neither
of them said a word. Lucas didn''t know what to say, while Matthew didn''t even consider whether or not
he should speak at all.
It was not until all the dishes became cold that Lucas asked in a low voice, "Uncle Matthew, are you
really going to leave the Bright Dynasty?"
"Probably," Matthew inly replied.
"Where are you going?" Lucas didn''t know why but he felt somewhat rmed when he heard Matthew
say that he would leave the Bright Dynasty as soon as he arrived. Matthew was the protector for the
Bright Dynasty, as his ck g Army was invincible. If he left, the military power of the Bright Dynasty
would be greatly decreased.
"I don''t know yet," Matthew replied while he looked away in the distance.
"Does that mean you won''t leave in the near future, Uncle Matthew?" Lucas asked, breathing a sigh of
relief. He had just ascended the throne, bing the emperor of the Bright Dynasty. So his position
was not yet stable. If Matthew left the Bright Dynasty during this time, Lucas would encounter a lot of
problems moving forward.
"Yes." Matthew ced down his chopsticks since he had lost his appetite. Earlier, he had thought of
going with Harper and Zack, but he had given up on the idea. That was because it was improper for
him, an outsider and a male, to be present when a woman was inbor.
Lucas put down his chopsticks as well. He asked, "Will Aunt Harper leave with you?"
"Of course. But before we leave, I will help you clear every obstacle that you currently have or might
have. In exchange, you have to protect Harper''s brother and sister all the time," Matthew answered
while ying the ring around his thumb.
"Alexander and Gianna?" Lucas asked in surprise. With Allen''s protection, Gianna was certainly safe
and in good hands. Alexander was the sworn son of Pearce who cherished his child very much. It
seemed like Harper had made arrangements for her brother and sister a long time ago. Lucas then
wondered if Harper had been nning on leaving since then.
"It''s about the Qin n!" Lucas immediately uttered his realization. "Have you found out anything about
them?"
"Harper and I will probably have to go back to where the Qin n started. Anyway, it''s gettingte. You
should go back to the Imperial Pce. Some immediate matters require your attention. For example,
you don''t have an empress yet. All the courtiers must have been thinking about that position. If you''re
interested in someone, you should marry her as soon as possible," Matthew said, changing the topic of
conversation.
Lucas blinked a few times. "Uncle Matthew, I..."
"As an emperor, you have great responsibilities to take care of. I''m sure you understand that even
though the crown is on your head right now, the imperial harem involves a lot of politics. But if you''re
capable enough to impress all the courtiers, the vacancy of the imperial harem will not matter.
However, you don''t have such capabilities and status yet." He didn''t mean to deliberately offend Lucas.
On the contrary, he was simply telling him a fact that it wouldn''t be easy for him to abolish the imperial
harem.
"Uncle Matthew, I won''t give up. I don''t want the woman I love to live every single day of her life under
so many conflicts and conspiracies. I want to be like you, Uncle Matthew. I want to find someone who I
can truly love and spend the rest of my life with," Lucas sincerely stated.
For the first time, Matthew looked at Lucas with eyes full of admiration. "You have a good principle."
"That''s all because you set a good example for me, Uncle Matthew. Speaking of which, I''ve been
meaning to ask you. How did you acquire such wisdom and intellect?" Lucas said while raising his
eyebrows.
