Chapter 9

Sharp pain rushed through her every time a stick landed on her with a huge thud. Although Harper was dying in pain, she did not
even let out a yelping sound and continued to stare at Charles with her black, resentful eyes. A chill ran down Charles' spine, but
he regained his composure. He couldn't let Harper stay here any longer as he had gone through enough trouble because of her.
"Beat her! Beat her to death!" Charles ordered as he continued staring at his daughter.

Sue was hurt, but she didn't dare to dodge. "Mother, Felicia is also your granddaughter, but you only cares for Harper and doesn't care for Felicia at all. Felicia is still in danger," Sue cried loudly. "Grandma," Harper said as she held Mavis' hands. "Grandma, someone has framed me for this. I didn't do it." "Harper, Felicia had come to visit you, out of sheer kindness, but you wanted to kill her. You poisoned her. Moreover, the poison was in your room. How dare you deny all

of the mansion. But Harper was smart enough to ask Nina to request Mavis to come back immediately.
"Grandma, I am innocent. Felicia was poisoned by some kind of deadly poison. If she hadn't taken the antidote in advance, the
poison would have killed her immediately. It is impossible even for the physician to cure her so easily. Unless she had prepared
the antidote in advance, it's impossible for her to be alive," Harper said grimly as she held Mavis' hands so tight that it began to
hurt her. She gathered all her strength to finish her words.
