Time Travelling: My Love from the Royal Family

"Well, so when your teacher's son was down and in trouble, you didn't hesitate to hit him," Matthew said in a flat tone, but Hollis trembled with fear at his words.

"Your Highness, you are scaring me. I didn't hit him when he was down, nor do I have the nerve to do such a thing. As for this case, after the post-mortem examination of the corpse, Marquis Pearce pressurized me to bring justice to his son. I did everything according to what the law prescribes."

"Really?" Matthew sneered. "Are you trying to fool me thinking that I know nothing about the law?"

"Please forgive me, Your Highness! I never meant to offend you. I'm so sorry. Please forgive me!" Hollis could not help but curse his assistant in his heart, because it was the latter who had advised him to visit Matthew and get some information about the murderer. But now, it turned out that he came to dig his own grave.

"All right, I don't intend to call you to account for this. I will be going back to

back, without answering yes or no.

"Yes, I am," Alexander answered frankly. "But I am more afraid about my conscience. I know I didn't kill Alban, but if I would have put up with him without much arguments, maybe he wouldn't have died. I think I am obliged to apologize to his parents."

Harper stretched her hand to touch Alexander's head with affection. "Alexander, you've grown up. You know how to consider others."

"Marquis Pearce and his wife are good people," Alexander said with embarrassment. "Although Alban was a bully, he never did anything evil. He just liked to make fun of us occasionally. He shouldn't have died. Marquis Pearce and his wife would have been heartbroken as he was their only son. My apology is insignificant and can't change what happened, but I hope they would see my sincerity."

"Good! Don't be afraid. I will take you tomorrow to Marquis Pearce's mansion," Matthew praised him for his attitude and volunteered to go along with him.
