Forensic Imperial Concubine

After days of attentive care and nursing, Felicia returned to her normal state before the Hair-pinning Ceremony. It was her
coming-of-age ceremony and her face was flawless, without any trace of a scar. If it weren't for the Skin-smoothing Cream from
Hailey, there would still be many scars on Felicia's face, even after she was completely detoxified.
According to the rituals, Felicia's Hair-pinning Ceremony wasn't allowed to be fancier than Harper's ceremony, as Harper was the
daughter of Charles' first wife. But since Felicia had engaged to Hansen and Sue was in charge of all the affairs of the Chu Clan
mansion, her ceremony was a grand endeavor. Many ladies had come to congratulate her.
"My Lady, aren't you going to attend the ceremony today?" Anabel asked while fanning Harper. It was already hot in June.
Harper was devouring the iced watermelon. She flipped the history book wearily and said, "Why should I go there? Felicia is the
linchpin today. If I attend the ceremony and steal her thunder, I will be in trouble again."
"But are you not afraid that Lady Sue might torment you since you are here having your illness as an excuse?" Anabel knitted
her eyebrows in worry. Everyone was aware that Sue despised Harper. Although she promised that she wouldn't mess with
Harper, it had only been for the sake of Mavis. She had done a lot of nasty things to get Harper into trouble.
"No, she won't. Today is a big day for her precious daughter. She wouldn't want me to go out. My illness was what she had
wished for. Moreover, I have sent a gift for my sister's coming-of-age ceremony. So no one can say anything bad about me,"
Harper said. "The iced watermelon tastes good. Get some for Enya and Elsie as well." The soft and gentle voice of Harper
sounded as sweet as honey. Anabel nodded and took out a plate of watermelon.
There was a shady glint in Harper's eyes as her mind raced with thoughts. 'Felicia's wedding with Hansen will be discussed soon
after her coming-of-age ceremony. Yvonne, you don't have much time left. If you don't seize the right opportunity, you will die!'
Sue had arranged everything for the ceremony without bothering Harper as she wanted the ceremony to progress without any
hassle. The daughters of the other concubines were driven back to the backyard when they showed up at the ceremony, as Sue
didn't want anyone to steal Felicia's spotlight.
Sue was happy about Harper's illness. Kate, Prince Kevin's wife, also attended Felicia's Hair-pinning Ceremony with a big gift to
establish how much she valued her future daughter-in-law.
Sue was grinning from ear to ear and happily chatting with Kate. They had decided that it was time for Felicia and Hansen to get
married as Felicia was officially an adult.
"Mother, Your Highnesses, Felicia," Yvonne said with a pitiful look as she broke in and knelt down in front of everyone.

"Yvonne, what are you doing? Don't you know that it's disrespectful to break in like this?" Sue stood up and yelled at Yvonne.
"Mother, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that. But..." Yvonne cast an accusing glance at Hansen. "Mother, I am pregnant with His
Highness's child."
Her words were like a heavy stone that was thrown into a quiet lake, stirring up a huge wave. Sue's face turned pale as if she
had received an unexpected slap in her face.
"What the hell are you talking about?" Sue gritted her teeth.
"Mother, I know that you dote on Felicia. But I'm not asking for much. I only want to stay by his Highness's side, in my rightful
position. Now that I'm pregnant, I hope that Mother and Your Highness would allow me to stay at His Highness's side, and give
me the right to take care of him," Yvonne cried bitterly. She had been pregnant for more than a month. If Sue had found out that
she was pregnant, she would have definitely killed her to spare her two daughters from humiliation and protect their promising
future.
"Bullshit! What the hell are you talking about? How could you have His Highness's child?" Sue wanted to tear Yvonne's mouth
apart. How dare she say such blatant words during Felicia's Hair-pinning Ceremony in order to cling to the bigwigs! She had
gone to the extent of lying about her pregnancy with his Highness's child.
"Your Highness, please say something. I've been pregnant for more than a month. It's your child and you know it." Yvonne was
panicking. She walked towards Hansen, held onto his leg. "Your Highness, you said that you would take care of me."
Hansen's face turned red with embarrassment. After all, there were a lot of guests waiting outside at the Hair-pinning Ceremony
of his fiancee. If they got to know that he had slept with his fiancee's sister before marriage and got her pregnant, it would be a
huge humiliation for him.
"Are you serious?" Kate asked in shock. 'Our mansion hasn't seen a child for a long time. If the child is really Hansen's, he can
take her as his concubine, ' she thought.
"Your Highness, it's true. A month ago, when His Highness came to our mansion, we ran into each other. His Highness..."
Yvonne trailed off. "He had sex with me and said that he would take the responsibility." Tears streamed down Yvonne's face.
Kate looked at her son and then at Yvonne.
"Is she telling the truth, Hansen?"

Hansen averted his gaze away from his mother as he was embarrassed and didn't know how to answer. Kate knew her son well.
The mere look on his face was enough for her to believe Yvonne's words.
"Bitch!" Felicia couldn't contain her anger as she rushed towards Yvonne and slapped her in the face. "Bitch, how you dare you
seduce His Highness! I'll beat you to death!" She was shaking with fury and had meant every single word.
"Felicia!" Sue rushed to stop Felicia. It was normal for a man to have several concubines; Hansen was no exception, especially
when he belonged to a noble clan. In the future, he would have more women around him. If Felicia couldn't bear the fact that
Yvonne was Hansen's woman, she would have a hard time in the future.
Kate frowned. She was unhappy with Felicia's reaction. Virtue was the most important trait that she expected from her daughter-
in-law. If she was jealous of her own sister, she would undoubtedly be more vicious to other women.
"Your Highnesses, please forgive Felicia. Everything happened so quickly and she's having a hard time to process it," Sue
explained as she smiled at them. Her heart was hurting after she found the truth, but she had to pretend that she was generous.
"What happened?" Harper asked as she walked in gracefully, looking majestic and charming.
When Sue saw Harper come in, she felt that things were going to take a wrong turn. "Harper, why are you here?" she asked.
