Forensic Imperial Concubine

Chapter 43 Venomous Slander (Part One)

Mavis once again lurched forward and hit Sue with her walking stick. Seeing this, Harper got up and caught hold of Mavis.

"Grandma, calm down. Getting angry is bad for your health," Harper said while sobbing uncontrollably. Mavis turned her gaze at Harper and noticed Sue's handprint on Harper's fair face. She was already furious but this intensified her anger.

Just when this was happening, Charles returned home. He was informed by a servant that Sue was creating a scene in Peony House. Realizing the matter must be serious, he quickly rushed over there. "What happened, Mother? Why do you look so angry? If there's something wrong, I can deal with it."

In this agitated state, Mavis couldn't even say anything. She continued staring at Sue. At that moment, Sue became the villain who had come with an unreasonable complaint. "Charles, you must seek justice for me. Harper was so vicious as she had given poisoned wedding gifts to Yvonne and Felicia. Right now, they are lying in bed, unconscious. I am particularly worried about Yvonne since she is pregnant. And let's not forget she is carrying His Highness's child. If something happens to her, what will we do?"

After listening to this, Charles merely made his way towards Sue and placed a tight slap in her face. This took her completely off-guard. For a moment, Sue was dizzy and found it hard to see anything clearly.

Once she had regained her composure, she wondered if this was all just a dream. They had been married for over ten years yet this was the first time he had beaten her.

She slowly began to mumble, "Charles, I... Did I make a mistake? Why did you hit me?" As she spoke, she was trembling, soaked in pain and humiliation.
