Chapter 78 The Chaos In The Chu n Mansion (Part One)
Hearing Harper''s voice, Sue looked up and shifted her gaze toward her in utter bewilderment. Then,
with hatred and malice shing in her eyes, she viciously cursed, "Why wasn''t it you instead? Why not
you? Why not you?"
Sue''s voice was obviously full of hostility and resentment as she repeated her question over and over
again. Harper, on the other hand, seemed as though she waspletely taken aback. She almost
couldn''t stand up because of it. She was staggering and almost lost her sense of bnce. Luckily for
her, Zack reached out and caught her just as she was about to fall down.
"Lady Sue, I can''t believe that you are so spiteful!" Zack said that as loud and clear as he could to
ensure that everyone around them would be able to hear. What he said managed to strike a chord in
everyone''s heart. Everyone present witnessed with their own eyes how Felicia had acted without
showing even a bit of restraint. And right now, they even heard how Sue tried to frame Harper up and
gave her a mouthful in public for the false usation!
"From what I''ve heard, Lady Sue is not actually Lady Harper''s biological mother, but her stepmother.
She is so spiteful. She couldn''t teach her own daughter to have some decency and that''s why her
daughter ended up doing such a shameless thing. How could she use Lady Harper like that? That
could just make people get the wrong idea and think that it was Lady Harper instead of Lady Felicia
who did some obscene things with a man!" People chattered and exchanged opinions. In the end,
everyone had to agree that Sue was indeed such a spiteful, horrible and cruel stepmother.
Tears welled up in Harper''s eyes, but she somehow managed to keep them from falling. Her delicate
and injured appearance only helped make people want to take care of her. Deep inside, everyone was
most certainly cursing Sue.
When Sue finally got a hold of herself, she took of her coat and covered Felicia''s naked body with it.
Feeling her daughter''s body shivering, she shot Harper a murderous nce. Then, she helped Felicia
get up so they could walk away. Sue was well aware of the fact that it would be best for them to leave
this ce as soon as possible for the time being.

Inside the room, Harper wiped her tears dry and ran out, but the tears just kept rolling down her
cheeks. No one could stop her. However, the others wouldn''t let Sue take Felicia away as if nothing
happened. By the time Sue had finally made her way through the crowd, she noticed that the coat that
was covering Felicia was nowhere to be found, and her daughter looked so disheveled. At that
moment, Sue felt like her heart was being ripped apart. Hatred had almost swallowed up Sue. She
desperately wanted to make Harper suffer a great deal of pain for what she did! And that was the only
way to quell her anger!
Harper got back to the Chu n mansion before Sue. As soon as she stepped foot inside the mansion,
she cried her lungs out and rushed into Mavis'' Peony House. It just so happened that Charles got back
at almost the same time she did and was having a conversation with Mavis. The second he saw Harper
rudely barging in and in tears, Charles frowned and became furious instantly. "Harper! Behave like a
lady! Look at yourself! You look like such a mess!"
This time, much to their surprise, instead of being polite and reasonable like she usually was, Harper
broke down and fell to her knees in front of Charles and Mavis. With her voice sounding like it was
about to break, she asked, "Grandma, Father, am I really so useless in this family that everyone thinks
it would be better if I just die? Is that the truth?"
"That''s utter nonsense!" Mavis stated, fuming with intense anger that she pped the table with great
force. "Which bitch gave you that idea?"
Harper almost choked up. "Grandma, Mother kept on asking me why it wasn''t me over and over again.
Why does she hate me that much?"
Mavis and Charles didn''t realize that there was something wrong until she said those words. Both of
them thought that it was very strange for Sue to say such a thing. She might have been such a narrow-
minded woman, but they never thought Sue would be capable of uttering something so terrible. With
that in their mind, they thought that there must be a reason why Harper acted the way she did. "Try to
calm yourself down. Tell me exactly what happened, Harper," Mavis said.
"I really have no idea what happened either, Grandma. Caroline asked me to meet her at the Spring
Restaurant so she could thank me personally, so I went there. But when I got there, Mister Zack was
already inside waiting for me and told me that Caroline was feeling under the weather because of the
cold windst night. Because of that, she asked him to do her a favor ande in her stead to the
Spring Restaurant to let me know that she wouldn''t be able to make it. So, I just had a chat with Mister
Zack for a while since were already there. But suddenly, I heard amotion outside. Someone was
saying that Lady Harper from the Chu n was so loose and shameless. I found it quite strange. I
understand that it was not appropriate to meet a man outside all by myself, but I made sure to act
properly. But to go and use me of being loose and shameless? That is something that I just can''t
take."
With a heavy heart, Harper sobbed and could not hold it anymore. But Charles and Mavis, on the other
hand, simply grew even more anxious. "Go on, please continue. Tell us what happened next."
"When he noticed how angry I was after hearing those terrible and false usations, Mister Zack...
Mister Zack went out of the room to check what was going on. As it turned out, Hansen was there
having fun with a woman. And the crowd that was watching thought that woman was me!"
"Bastard!" Mavis eximed as she trembled with disgust. Hearing this made Charles'' face turn dark as
well. But right now, what he couldn''t wait to find out was what Sue had to do with this matter.
"But what does it all have to do with your mother?"
It should go that Mavis was just as eager to know what it had to do with Sue.
With tears in her eyes, Harper went on and exined, "Mister Zack had been blocking my view of the
indecent scene. But all of a sudden, I heard a woman calling out to him. Her voice sounded familiar,
and I thought it seemed like it was Felicia."
Both Mavis'' and Charles'' hearts skipped a beat. As they listened Harper''s ount of what happened,
an idea crossed their minds. Their bodies tensed up, but they were hoping so much that what their
thought was wrong.
Harper continued, "After that, there was anothermotion among the crowd, but I couldn''t really see
what happened with my own eyes, because Mister Zack had been keeping me from seeing what was
going on inside that room the entire time. Then, through the tumult, I heard Mother scream out my
name moments before I saw a naked woman roll down the stairs until she fell below Mother''s feet. She
didn''t even take a look to see who it was, but she just started calling out my name! But that wasn''t me
at all!"
When Mavis heard this, her face turned livid. Sue went ahead and called out Harper''s name without
bothering to take a look at that woman''s face to confirm her identity. How dare she do that! As far as
Mavis was concerned, it seemed quite obvious that Sue wanted Harper to take the fall.
