Chapter 22 An Exclusive Kitchen (Part Two)


    "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. Thest 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 n, 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 n!" 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 me 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 rece you!" Mavis was annoyed by Sue. ording 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 be much more dignified and elegant. If everything went smoothly,


    she would eventually be the emperor''s concubine. But listening to Sue, Mavis worried her ns would


    fail. ''No, there is no way I will let Sue damage this, '' she thought with strong determination.


    "I''m so sorry, Mother." Sue hurriedly admitted her fault. But in her heart, she wouldn''t forgive Harper for


    what she had done. She would make her pay for it, no matter what. However, seeing that Mavis was


    determined to protect Harper, she gnashed her teeth in hatred.


    "Now that you know you are wrong, you should go back and take good care of Felicia. She wille of


    age in two months. If she is seriously ill, you need to call an imperial physician to check on her. A girl''s


    beauty is of the utmost importance, so don''t be silly," Mavis said in a softened tone when she heard


    Sue''s apology. She herself was worried about Felicia''s face, but it wasn''t right for Sue to nder


    others.


    "I know, Mother."


    "Harper."


    "Yes, Grandma," Harper responded, sounding sad. "Please don''t me Mother. She was just worried


    about Felicia. In this panic, she probably spoke without thinking. Please be kind enough to forgive her."


    Hearing this, Sue had an urge to p Harper. Harper had stabbed her yet she feigned innocence.


    However, because of Mavis, she had to hide her emotions. On top of that, Charles wanted to send her


    into the Imperial Pce. Therefore, there was no way for Sue to harm her.


    "Did you hear that, Sue? You are almost in your middle age, yet you behave so recklessly. This


    sensible girl should knock some sense into you!" Mavis said in a reproachful tone. "Now go back to


    look after Felicia. And also, arrange an exclusive kitchen for Harper. From now on, her diet will be


    made exclusively from this kitchen."


    "Mother, it''s inappropriate." Sue was anxious. If Harper had dinner cooked by her exclusive kitchen, it


    would make it nearly impossible for Sue to add something in her food.


    "Enough!" Mavis cast a disdainful nce at Sue. "Harper is the daughter of Charles'' legal wife. It''s


    proper for her to have an exclusive kitchen. This matter is settled and I don''t wish to have any further


    conversation about it."


    "But Mother, even Hailey—"


    "Thank you, Grandma!" Harper interrupted Sue and bowed down her head. It would indeed be very


    beneficial for her to have a kitchen of her own. Lately, she had detected adulteration in her food. An


    exclusive kitchen was something she had always wanted to ask for. The fact Mavis mentioned it filled


    her with happiness. ''Now I won''t have to broach this topic to her!'' she thought with a sigh of relief.


    Mavis smiled at Harper lovingly. Sue had been in charge of the domestic affairs of the mansion, but


    today her words were being ignored. Mavis was worried that Sue would poison Harper''s food. Although


    Harper knew about medicine, she could be careless sometimes. Having a separate kitchen was the


    best way to prevent others from meddling with her food.


    "With this kitchen, it will be convenient for you to eat whatever you want. And if you have an urge to try


    something delicious, just tell the cook to cook it for you. Don''t ever hesitate from asking anything. After


    all, you are the daughter of Charles'' legal wife. If you don''t have enough money, all you have to do is


    ask," Mavis said this in front of Sue. The hint that she had mistreated Harper left her feeling humiliated.


    She hade here toin about Harper, but her ns had backfired.


    "Yes, Grandma. I''ll keep that in mind."


    "Alright, I''m extremely tired. All of you should leave now."


    "Goodbye, Mother."


    "Goodbye, Grandma."
