There was doubt on Maxwell's face. He didn't think that Harper had lied. But was Jade really not pregnant? Was it really just a
hoax? With all of that being said, did that mean he couldn't have children?
"General, I was born with nothing and I'll die with nothing. I know for a fact that you are a man of indomitable spirit. I will not allow
anyone to deceive you like this. Even if I have to risk my life, I won't let you get played." Seeing how Maxwell hesitated, Harper
vowed with the utmost certainty that even Matthew almost believed it.
"Maxwell, the only reason she's talked so much is because she fears for own life. How could she be so cruel to my poor child
who died miserably? I don't want to live anymore. Please just sentence me to death so I can accompany my poor child!" Jade
cried her heart out. Breaking free from Maxwell's hold, she pulled back her arm to hit the pillar. However, with his quick reflexes,
he was able to stop her just in time.
Although Maxwell still had doubts, he felt embarrassed to see his beloved concubine this way.
"Lady Jade, are you afraid of being found out?" Matthew interjected.
"Your Highness, what have I ever done to deserve that accusation? How could you treat me like this?" sobbed Jade.
"I'm just curious. As we all know, Harper is a well-known imperial physician. If you had a difficult labor, I'm sure it would occur to
her to take the child out alive. Since General Maxwell attached great importance to the child, she wouldn't have been so
careless," Matthew explained, his eyes squinting in skepticism. "I believe there's something wrong with the whole thing. General,
since things have come to this, why not give Harper a chance to prove her innocence? She won't be able to escape anyway."
"Wait!" Jade said anxiously. "We have to consider the general's well-being. What if she hurts him? She may get some dirty tricks
up her sleeve."
"General, I swear on my life that I'm telling the truth. In addition, you don't need to worry because all I need to do is prick your
finger and take a drop of blood. It's entirely superficial," Harper said calmly. Then, she took a deep breath and added, "But we
"Go get the bone," Maxwell ordered a servant.
Jade's eyes widened in shock. "Maxwell, no...no..." she stammered.
"General, there's a big difference between a woman who has given birth to a child and one who hasn't. If you don't trust me, you
can ask an imperial nanny who has conducted physical examinations for imperial concubines to check Lady Jade," Harper said
going to kill you!" Without warning, she pounced at Harper. Harper was able to dodge her attack, making Jade fall embarrassingly on the floor. The way Jade reacted made Maxwell more certain that something was indeed wrong. He immediately asked a servant to invite an imperial nanny over. "Stay here for the physical examination," he said to Jade sternly. "Maxwell, we've been in love for years! Why do you trust this outsider more?" Jade cried with desperation. "Just shut up and stay put! If what you're saying is true, surely there must be no reason to be afraid of taking the physical examination. Am I wrong?" "Maxwell...I..." Jade was dumbfounded. Of course she was afraid. She didn't want Harper to uncover the truth! "General, the bone is here." Standing up, Jade approached the bone and whimpered, "My poor baby..." "Shut up!" Maxwell scolded Jade. "Show me the evidence," he then said to Harper, looking at her coldly. Harper stepped forward, taking a look at the baby's bone. "Pardon me," she said softly, taking Maxwell's hand. She pricked his finger with a needle that was so thin that he didn't even feel a thing. Carefully, she took Maxwell's hand over the bone and lightly pressed his finger to draw a drop of blood onto the bone. Everyone held their breaths, their eyes glued onto the tiny set
As soon as the blood made contact with the bone, the blood smoothly slid down the side. Everyone saw exactly what hadhappened. Harper sighed, and proceeded to explain, "General, you can see the blood can't—"
"General, the nanny is here," someone interrupted.
"Examine her!" Maxwell said, pointing a finger at Jade. Although his tone was loud and accusing, there was some sadness and
gloom to it. He was a hero in the battlefield, and yet he was played by a concubine. At this point, he was on the verge of losing
his temper.
Jade glanced at Maxwell with a defeated look on her face, and then followed the nanny into the room for her physical
examination. There was no point in making a scene, she thought.
wait for her own death sentence. But, since Matthew and Maxwell had not spoken about it, she decided to keep her thoughts to herself. After all, she was still guilty
the momentary silence. "Ah, you're giving me way more credit than I deserve. I would say my skills are mediocre. Even so, I can assure you that I'm not talking nonsense about this whole affair. It's fine if you don't believe me right now. But surely you would believe the nanny," Harper said calmly. Her manner was quite different from that of her father, Charles Chu. "Charles Chu is lucky to have a clever daughter like you!" Maxwell said. Harper didn't know whether he was praising or mocking her, but she didn't care. She looked around
