Chapter 117 Sue''s n (Part Two)


    Hailey couldn''t help but feel worried that if she went to talk to Charles directly, she would only expose


    the fact that she had secretly paid her mother a visit, something which Charles had forbidden her from


    doing. With that in mind, she thought that it would be better if Lacy went there instead of her, so she


    asked her to see her father instead.


    Without dy, Lacy told Charles about Sue''s message. Upon hearing it, Charles didn''t say anything for


    a while. The reason why he hadpletely lost interest in Sue wasn''t just because she had been


    bringing him a lot of trouble. It was also because she was so jealous that she would definitely be


    against him taking more concubines. What saddened him most was the fact that he couldn''t get even


    one concubine in the mansion for many years all thanks to Sue.


    "Did she really say such a thing?" Charles asked, feeling a bit skeptical. It was hardly surprising that he


    couldn''t believe it. After all, he knew just how jealous Sue was.


    "Yes, My Lord. Lady Sue knows she''s going to die soon, so she is worried about you. She wants to


    take some concubines for you so that they can take care of you," Lacy quickly said. "My Lord, please


    go and see her. She really misses you very much."


    After hesitating for a bit, Charles finally said, "Okay, I got it. I''lle over to visit herter."


    "Thank you so much, My Lord. For sure, she will be very happy once she hears that. I will tell her right


    away to wait for you." Lacy walked away, feeling so contented. Despite thinking that it could very well


    just be Sue''s scheme, Charles was hoping deep inside that Sue really was that kind. He was wishing


    that Sue would be bringing him such an unexpected surprise.


    Sue instructed her maids to look for some prospects to be Charles'' concubines. Every single one of


    them was quite beautiful and possessed such a soft disposition, which could easily arouse men''s


    desire to take care of them. However, none of them were of high status. Even if they were to enter the


    Chu n mansion, Sue was certain that they wouldn''t pose a threat to her position. On the contrary,


    she could even make use of them to deal with Charles.


    "My Lady, Prime Minister Charles hase."


    "Let him in," Sue instructed straight away. Since it had been a while since theyst saw each other,


    Sue wanted to dress up so that she wouldn''t look so haggard. However, she couldn''t hide her shriveled


    figure.


    A tinge of hatred shed across Sue''s eyes when she saw Charles walking in, still looking so fresh and


    energetic. She had been poisoned by him and left here to die. No one really cared about her condition


    at all. On the other hand, Charles remained unfazed. He was still enjoying a healthy and happy life.

    "Charles, you finally came," Sue greeted him as a gentle and expectant smile appeared on her face. "I


    was thinking I would never be able to see you ever again."


    When he looked at Sue, who had gotten so thin and weak, Charles was a little surprised as well. He


    had not expected that Sue would be so thin. "You... You''ve lost a lot of weight," he softly said.


    "I''ve been lying in bed for quite a while now since I got sick, so I became a little thin," Sue replied while


    helping Charles sit down. After that, she also took a seat right beside him. Doing these simple things


    had already left her feeling so exhausted.


    "You are still not in good health, so you should take good care of yourself and get some much needed


    rest. Don''t go exerting yourself too much. Harper is already taking care of family affairs. Don''t worry,


    she is actually doing so well. And although Hailey has been affected by Felicia''s case, she is going to


    be back to the Imperial Pce soon enough. So, you don''t need to keep overworking yourself. Right


    now, you really need to get some rest," Charles said in an attempt tofort Sue. However, his words


    only seemed to have made Sue feel even more restless.


    "How can I possibly feel at ease?" Sue cried out as she held Charles'' hand. "It''s not the family affairs in


    the mansion I''m worried about. I''m worried that no one is around to take care of you after I''m gone. You


    haven''t taken any concubines for many years now. So, I think this would be a good time to look for


    some women for you. By doing that, more people would be around to look after you. And most


    importantly, it can help you get more children. I think this is a great idea, if I may say so myself. That


    way, even if I die, I will be able to go peacefully knowing that you''re going to be just fine."


    "Stop spouting nonsense. You are still young. Stop talking about death, will you? You are just sick.


    That''s all. Once you finally get back to health, I''m sure you will be just fine," Charles said, sounding a


    bit worried. "As for concubines..."


    "Charles, I have already asked my maid to find some proper women. These are their portraits. Feel


    free to take a look at them first," Sue told him while handing the portraits she had prepared over to


    Charles. "You can pick anyone you like. And it doesn''t have to be just one. A lot of bad things have


    happened in our mansion recently. Who knows? Maybe taking some concubines will bring us good


    luck."


    After taking the portraits she was holding and randomly checking them out, Charles found all of them


    quite beautiful, making him feel quite pleased. As he looked back on his marriage to Sue, he ultimately


    decided to spare Sue''s life. He longer wanted to continue poisoning her, and would now let her live


    longer. In truth, the antidote for the Nightmare was non-existent. Meaning to say, even if Charles


    stopped poisoning her, she would be able to live a little longer, and she would still die eventually.


    "You are such a considerate woman," Charles said, giving praise to Sue. "Well, then..."


    "If you don''t mind, I''ll just take care of this matter for you," Sue suggested in a gentle tone. "I


    understand that Harper has been handling the household affairs, but she is still not married yet, so it


    wouldn''t be appropriate for her to handle this matter. Hailey wouldn''t be able to deal with it either. And


    as for Mother, she''s already too old to be dealing with something so troublesome. I may be a bit weak,


    but I think I can manage doing at least this much. I want to be of some use to you."


    "Don''t worry about it. You should take care of yourself first. It isn''t something urgent anyway. Let me


    discuss this with Mother first," Charles said, wearing a soft expression on his face. "Please take good


    care of yourself. I can''t live without you."


    "Please rest assured, Charles. I will take good care of myself," Sue politely replied. Hearing Charles''


    words, she felt a sense of relief deep inside. From the looks of it, what he said implied that he was


    interested in her suggestion of taking more concubines. If she wanted to deal with this matter, then she


    would have a way to escape from this isted house. Then, she would finally be able to get even with


    Harper!
