Forensic Imperial Concubine

Chapter 808 The Bully (Part Two)

With the situation in front of him, Joshua gasped in surprise and thought, 'What on earth happened to Carlson? He's actually forcing a woman right now! It seems that the woman is violently struggling from his hold. She must be a very strong one.'

"How dare you to hit me back? I..." Carlson blurted out. When he was about to slap her again, he suddenly noticed that someone was watching them. Upon looking up, he saw Joshua standing by the door, as if he had just been struck by lightning.

"Carlson, you're a member of the royal family. How could you do this? Forcing a woman? This is just too disgraceful! Oh my god, I never thought that you would be someone who likes to do this kind of thing!" Joshua said while he covered his eyes with his hands.

Carlson was so enraged that he began to tremble. "Which of your eyes saw that I'm forcing a woman?"

Joshua moved his fingers a bit, allowing him to peek at them. He then responded, "Well, both of my two eyes see what you are doing! I know you're not young anymore and you need a woman by your side. If you don't like to go to the brothel, you can marry a decent woman as soon as possible. Why do you have to harass and force a woman?"

"No, I didn't—" Carlson tried to explain but Joshua cut him off, saying,

"Well, you don't have to say anything more. I get it. I understand that men can't control themselves sometimes. I think you can take Prince Matthew as an example. He had remained single for twenty-six years before he married Lady Harper. But when he met her, he didn't waste any time and married her in an instant. But you're just twenty years old and yet you can't control your desires anymore. Well, do you need me to send a message to Prince Matthew and Lady Harper? Perhaps, they can find you a good wife. After all, your father and mother have been expecting you to get married for a long time now. I think they'll be very happy to know that you want to get married." Joshua went on and on, not allowing Carlson to cut in before he could finish his monologue.

Carlson was rendered speechless. When he finally had the chance to say something, he exclaimed, "This woman came from the South Kingdom. She's a spy and she's here to gather some valuable information!"

"Oh, a spy from the South Kingdom! I didn't expect that," Joshua meekly said.

"Nonsense! I'm a princess of the South Kingdom. I came here to see my master," Diana cut in at once.

"Oh, are you Princess Diana?" Joshua asked in surprise.

"Yes, that's me!" Diana answered. The only thing she wanted to do at that moment was to cut Carlson into pieces! What a shameless man! He didn't only hit her, but also indecently tore off her clothes!

Clasping his hands, Joshua said, "Speaking of this, I forgot to tell you that before Lady Harper left, she said that Princess Diana of the South Kingdom will come here in two days and that we should let her pass. She also said that she's going back to the imperial capital first and that Princess Diana can go there directly to meet her."

"Has she already left for the imperial capital? Why didn't she wait for me?" Diana groaned.

The truth stunned Carlson. "Are you really here for Harper?"

"Of course, I am! I have searched this place from top to bottom and I didn't see her anywhere. That's why I have come to ask you. I called you dozens of times, but you didn't get up or make any response. Left without another choice, I woke you up that way," Diana heatedly yelled while she covered her chest with her hands.

With a frown, Carlson finally loosened his grip on her. "I didn't know if you were telling the truth. When I woke up, you were just slapping me a dozen times and I couldn't just let you do that to me without fighting back."

Joshua finally understood what had happened. The truth was that Diana came in there to see Harper. But Diana didn't see her so she tried to ask Carlson about where Harper was. Unfortunately, Carlson was extremely exhausted because he had trained the soldiers for a long time. He didn't wake up easily so she slapped his face numerous times.

Carlson had been powerful in the imperial capital since he was a child. He would always beat others and no one could hit him back. Regardless of whether they were women or men, he would strike them. That was why he began to fight with Diana on the bed, which was exactly the situation that Joshua had witnessed just then. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

"Get off me! How long are you going to stay above me?" Diana sharply asked.

In an instant, Carlson jumped from the bed. There was a hint of embarrassment on his face which was very rare to see. Thinking that the situation had been pacified for now, Joshua turned around with the intention of leaving. But Carlson grabbed him and asked, "Where are you going?"

Joshua looked at Diana from the corner of his eyes and said, "I'll ask someone to bring some clothes for Princess Diana. You tore her clothes. How can she get out of here looking like that?"

Carlson looked at Diana for a moment and immediately felt guilty. Earlier, he fought her without hesitation and tore her clothes by accident. He believed that it was not his fault but he couldn't explain the situation to everyone. After thinking for a while, he finally said, "Okay, fine. Then go and get some clothes for her as soon as possible."

A trace of playfulness sparkled in Joshua's eyes. With that, he walked away in a very comfortable manner. When he was gone, Carlson and Diana looked at each other. The former was guilty and the latter was abhorrently gritting her teeth. They waited for a long time but still, no one was coming with clean clothes. After a while, they were both puzzled.

"Why hasn't Joshua brought the clothes in here?" Carlson was puzzled. He didn't think Joshua needed so much time to find some clothes and bring them back.

"Go ask him yourself. Hurry up! I need to leave as soon as possible! I don't know where my master is right now. But the only thing I'm sure of is that she's getting farther and farther away from me. I must hurry and catch up with her! I don't want to waste any more time here!" Diana said in a rush.

"Oh, okay," Carlson replied. He was about to leave and look for Joshua when he saw two soldiers carrying a large bathtub filled with warm water. Then, they placed it in his room, turned around, and left in an instant. A maid followed them who put down the clothes on the table before she quickly left as well.

Looking at Diana and then back at the clothes, Carlson stammered, "Wh... what? Do you need to take a bath?"

Diana placed her arm close to her nose and tried to smell herself. For a few days, she had been so occupied on her journey that she didn't have the time to take some rest. So she thought that it was a nice idea to have a fresh bath and get changed before she continued her travel. She immediately replied, "Yes, why not? You should go out now. I'm going to take a bath. You can't stay inside while I'm bathing."

Carlson yawned and said, "Well, I'll go inside to have a good rest instead. Once you're done with everything, you should get out of my place as soon as possible. Don't even think about disturbing me again! Otherwise, I can't guarantee that I wouldn't do anything terrible to you!"

After he was finished speaking, Carlson walked towards the bedroom and fell asleep as soon as his head touched the pillow. When she saw that he was sound asleep, Diana felt relieved. Then, she began to take off her clothes to take a comfortable bath.
