    Chapter 80 Who Was The Fiend (Part One)


    Harper froze, staring at Kate in shock. "Your Highness, what have I done to you?" Her bottom lip


    trembled as she spoke. "Why are you trying to use me of something I didn''t even do?"

    "You dare talk back? You wretched bitch!" Katie threw a letter at her face. "See for yourself. It''s the


    evidence that you asked him out."


    The letter fell to the floor, and Harper picked it up. The person who wrote the letter asked Hansen to


    meet her in the Spring Restaurant. Under the message was her signature, yet she wasn''t the one who


    had written it. Harper looked up calmly. "I didn''t write it."


    "Of course you didn''t!" Kate scoffed. "As cunning as you are, you probably asked someone else to


    write the letter. You just asked some maid to write for you!" Kate was dead-set on believing that Harper


    was behind this. No matter what Harper would say or would try to prove, she wouldn''t even listen. The


    humiliation she had gone through after Hansen had called off the engagement, was her motive to seek


    revenge on her son.


    "Your Highness, you have to believe me. I didn''t write it, and besides, we''ve never talked since the


    incident. Even if I did, he wouldn''t trust me enough to agree to meet with me," Harper responded.


    "There must be something behind this, Your Highness. Please, I don''t know what happened, but I


    assure you I have nothing to do with it. Please find out the truth."


    Kate could only sneer in reply. "Do you really think I''ll convict you with just that letter? Don''t you


    remember that you''ve also sent your maid to deliver a letter to our mansion?"


    "I didn''t send any maid," Harper retorted. "The Chu n and your family are at odds with each other


    because of Yvonne''s death. I''m sure you''re aware of that. There''s absolutely no way I could''ve done


    such a thing!"


    "No? Would you dare call in your maids?" Kate snapped, tilting her chin high up in the air. After finding


    the other proof that she needed, she would let Harper pay for what she had done to her son.


    "I dare." Harper took a step forward, narrowing her eyes. "What if I''m innocent?"


    "I''ll apologize to you myself." Kate crossed her arms. It couldn''t be anyone else. Besides, Hansen had


    humiliated her and destroyed her reputation. It was a motive—an anger that couldn''t be quenched.


    However, what she didn''t expect was for the bitch to actually go through with the action! If she wasn''t


    convicted now, she would still feel the past holding her back. Her son deserved justice.


    "You said it yourself, Your Highness." Harper turned to Mavis. "Grandma, send Nanny Annie over to


    take all the maids working in my house. Your Highness, in order to avoid any more scuffle, send one of


    your people to apany her."


    Kate nodded. "Linda, go with her."


    "Yes, Your Highness."


    Annie and Linda obediently went to Harper''s house to bring over the maids. While that was happening,


    Harper was in the center of the hall with tears welling up in her eyes. People couldn''t help but feel sorry


    for her.


    Before long, they had already returned with seven maids in tow. As Kate saw them, she furrowed her


    eyebrows. "These are all the maids?"


    "Yes, Your Highness. We''ve brought them all here," Linda replied with a long face.


    "Harper Chu, are you lying to me? As the daughter of Prime Minister''s first wife, you should have at


    least ten servants. And all you have are seven?" Kate frowned, ncing at each and every one of


    them.


    Harper gritted her teeth as her hands balled into fists. "Everyone in my n knows that I only had four


    maids. Grandma doted on me, so she sent me another three. What you see now are all my maids."


    Upon hearing this, Kate turned to look at Charles in surprise. Thetter looked embarrassed. Mavis


    knew the total number of servants in the Chu n and how many maids Harper had clearly. "It''s true,"


    said Mavis.


    Sue had finallye out of unconsciousness. When she saw Kate standing over the maids, she


    reached out to lunge at her. But she was held back by Ruby.


    Kate nced at each and every one of them. They looked decent, at least. She turned to the


    manservant at her side. "Go on. Look for the one who delivered the letter to Hansen!"


    The manservant stepped forward and looked at all their faces. After a few minutes, he stopped and


    shook his head. "She isn''t here, Your Highness."


    "What do you mean she isn''t here? Look again!" Kate ordered, not believing what he had just said.


    "I''ve checked them all, Your Highness. The girl who delivered the letter has a mole on the corner of her


    mouth, plus she is shorter than the others," the manservant answered decisively. "No. She is not one of


    them."


    When Felicia heard the description of the maid, she buried her face deeper into Sue''s arms so no one


    could see her frightened expression. At that moment, all she wanted was for Kate to leave. If she found


    out that it was her maid who had sent the letter, hell would break lose.


    Sue didn''t know what was happening around her until Ruby told her a more general story of what was


    going on. She frowned. It wasn''t a good idea for Harper to keep getting herself involved in these things.


    Harper tilted her head. "Since your target isn''t one of my maids, why don''t you try checking out Felicia''s


    as well?"


    "Hasn''t your sister suffered enough? You want to use her of this as well?" Sue sneered. Though


    she was angry at Felicia for fooling around with a man in public, Felicia was still her daughter, and she


    adored her.


    "Mother, I only asked for Felicia''s maids to prove her innocence. If she didn''t do it, then it must be done


    by an imposter!" Harper insisted. "Besides, it was Felicia who got involved in the first ce and met


    with His Highness. It would be reasonable to check her maids."
