Forensic Imperial Concubine

Harper and Sue went out. Hearing Ruby's scream, Sue clenched her hands. "Harper, I think I've underestimated you."

"Mother, I don't understand what you said," Harper asked with innocence in her tone.

Harper's pretentious act made Sue's eyes darken, so she wrapped her hand around her throat. Harper had been violent and dominant but easy to deal with sometimes. But now, just like a vicious snake, she seemed to be obedient but could attack without getting caught.

"I heard that your grandmother and father wanted to send you to the Imperial Palace," Sue said coldly.

"I will follow their order." There was no emotion visible in Harper's eyes. As long as Sue wouldn't let her go to the Imperial Palace, what she thought didn't matter.

Sue raised her hand and caressed Harper's face. "You're more prettier than before. I'm sure His Majesty will fall in love with you at first sight."

"I'm flattered. There are more beautiful women in the Imperial Palace." A chuckle went out of her mouth. She was so kind and polite to the point Sue couldn't find any flaws on her.

Mavis spoiled Harper so much that she became arrogant, but that wouldn't last long once Mavis was gone.

"Since your sister will be back later, let's have lunch together."

"Yes, Mother," Harper nodded. "Mother, I want to visit Felicia."

"No need to do that. She actually doesn't want to see you because of the rashes on her skin. Just visit her after she recovers." A hint of hatred went on Sue's face. Harper had been arrogant but careless. It was not until this moment that Sue knew she had been deceived by Harper's appearance and made up her mind to turn the tables.

After Sue left, Harper picked a gardenia. "It's blooming and smells great, too."

"My Lady, do you want to take some and put them in the room?" Nina asked.

Harper shook her head. "No matter how beautiful the flowers are, they will wither soon without branches."

"Har... Harper." Feeling that someone yanked her sleeve, Harper lowered her head and saw a girl looking up at her.

She squatted down in front of the girl and asked, "Alexandra, why are you here alone? Where's your mother?"
