Time Travelling: My Love from the Royal Family

It was pretty normal for the Chu Clan to be quite interested in the Bu Clan. After all, the Bu Clan was highly regarded in the imperial capital.

The Bu Clan was over an old and well-known clan, and had many high-ranking officials. Countless people scrambled and crawled for a friendship with the Bu Clan, and many of them wanted to marry their daughters to Franklin's son or marry their sons to Franklin's daughter. But Franklin had very high standards for his future son-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Charles didn't know that Harper had saved Caroline's life. He was quite surprised when he heard that the people from Bu Clan wanted to invite Harper over to their mansion. As tactful as Franklin was, he disliked Charles.

Eager to know why the Bu Clan wanted to see Harper, Charles decided to talk to her first. Harper told him about the invitation. Upon listening to her words, Charles looked at her with a complicated expression on his face.

"What do you think of the Bu Clan?" Charles asked Harper tentatively. He thought it was necessary to remind Harper what an illustrious clan the Bu Clan was in the imperial capital. Men of the Bu Clan were not allowed to take concubines unless they were thirty and their wives were unable to bear a son. For this reason, women everywhere dreamed of marrying into the Bu Clan.

"The Bu Clan is a family holding high official positions for generations. Franklin Bu is the grand secretary of the Cabinet. He is a man of high position in the government," Harper said matter-of-factly.

However, Caroline had security guards that watched over her 24/7. How could the attacker have ambushed them in the first place?

Harper couldn't understand how it happened. The power and prestige of the Bu Clan were a subject of envy for many. If anyone was coming after the Bu Clan, then what happened to Caroline was just the start. Hurting her wouldn't harm them. If one really wanted to go after the Bu Clan, then they should be targeting Zack.

Upon thinking this, Harper suddenly thought of something. Could this just be a distraction? Maybe they were trying to get the Bu Clan to believe that Caroline was their target while their real goal was Zack.

Harper tried to shake the thought away. She'd only met Zack once and he was an absolute gentleman. He wasn't stupid either so he probably knew that he must be a target of their enemies. Besides, Franklin was the grand secretary of the Cabinet. He probably knew all of this and she shouldn't be worrying about it anymore.

"Let's go back and rest. We have to get up early tomorrow. Remember to prepare the medicine box for me," Harper said softly. She had to keep up her lie of doing a follow-up consultation. She didn't even want to think what would happen if her family found out that she had lied. In reality, she just didn't want the Chu Clan to be using her to build a connection with the Bu Clan.
