Forensic Imperial Concubine

"Don't worry about that. No one can bully Hailey." Mavis patted on Harper's hand softly with a confident smile on her face. They had sent Hailey to Imperial Academy of Medicine to acquire knowledge and upgrade herself.

"I heard Hailey would come back today?" Mavis took a cup of tea from Harper and took a sip from it.

"Good morning, Lady Sue, Harper," the concubines greeted.
