Forensic Imperial Concubine

"I can't believe you have the audacity to deny it. If you didn't do that, then who did it?" Sue wouldn't buy anything that Harper said. Just when this drama was going on, Carrie, one of Charles' concubines, arrived with her daughter Yvonne to visit Mavis. She remained silent and watched the spectacle happening before her. The last thing she wanted was to irritate Sue. She had witnessed how sinister Sue could be, but she enjoyed it since it was against Harper.

"Mother, Felicia didn't do anything wrong to me. Why would I do such an awful thing to her? If anything, it was His Highness who broke off the engagement. It genuinely has nothing to do with Felicia. As a member of the Chu Clan, I too feel honored to see Felicia marry into Prince Kevin's mansion. I wouldn't even think of doing anything that is against our clan!" Tears began to slide down from Harper's eyes. "Aren't you satisfied even after I gave up my marriage? What do you expect of me? Do you wish for me to end my life?"

"Keep your lies to yourself. It is you—"

"Enough!" Mavis pounded the table angrily. "You failed to take good care of Felicia. And now, you are hell-bent on shifting all the blame onto Harper. Sue Wang, I have to tell you, Harper wouldn't marry His Highness, and she had no reason to drug Felicia. If you think it's too tiring to manage the mansion, there are many people who can take charge of it."

With a pale face, Sue quickly knelt down and said, "I dare not, Mother."

"I always thought you were a sensible woman. Charles should have told you to keep your dirty tricks away. If you can't manage the mansion well, then you have to remember that a lot of people in the mansion would be more than happy to replace you!" Mavis was annoyed by Sue. According to her, Harper used to be domineering, but now she had slowly managed to get a good personality. In fact, under Mary's guidance, she had become much more dignified and elegant. If everything went smoothly, she would eventually be the emperor's concubine. But listening to Sue, Mavis worried her plans would fail. 'No, there is no way I will let Sue damage this, ' she thought with strong determination.

She would make her pay for it, no matter what. However, seeing that Mavis was determined to protect Harper, she
