Once out of the Emerald House, Charles shouted at his men, "Go and find him no matter what it takes!"
"Yes, My Lord!" The men shot up at the newly addressed order before rushing away to find the man.
The loud footsteps and tense atmosphere stirred the entire mansion at its rest. Sue, who was just having tea in her room, got out
with her maids to check what had happened. The moment she saw Charles, she caught sight of his dark look. "Charles, what
happened?"
"A thief went inside. Please don't be afraid," Charles said, sounding as calm as possible. On the inside, he was raging. The thief
had broken into the most guarded place of the mansion, his secret chamber. He had stolen something from him, and if he didn't
take it back, he'd be dead.
"A thief?" Sue raised her eyebrows. "Isn't it a coincidence? Just as Harper came back, a burglary occurred?"
Charles shot her an unhappy look. He had no time for dealing with the disputes between her and Harper. Sue stopped the
subject at once and then asked, "Has the thief been caught?"
"No. But he is somewhere nearby. We've lost sight of him," Charles said. His face reddened in fury. He wasn't expecting the thief
to escape his mansion so quickly yet remain unseen by his guards. He had been hiding a powerful device in the chamber, one
that could've injured the thief. But even then, the man escaped, without a drop of blood in sight. The thief wasn't just any other
"I suggest we do a complete search in our mansion, especially the Emerald House. Maybe the thief is hiding in—"
"Enough!" Charles roared. "Mother intends to send her to the Imperial Palace. You know what to do. Don't trouble her."
Deep inside, she was furious. 'If Harper wants to enter the palace, let's see
Harper, he'd be reminded of the times he'd been despicable. "Of course I'll take care of her. I hope one day she'll be selected by the emperor and climb the ranks to his favor. She'll bring endless glory to our clan," Sue said and congratulated Harper as if she were her own daughter. However, Charles was unaware of the way she was digging her fingernails into the palms of her hands. 'Over my dead body does that bitch become the emperor's concubine. I'll never give her
"I'm glad we've come to an agreement. Go and rest. For the Emerald House, pay more attention to it, if you may.""Yes, My Lord." Although Sue had given birth to three children, her body could rival that of a teen. If not for her curves, her charm
could draw anyone in. That was why it was so easy for her to convince Charles to spend that night with her.
The next morning, Sue quickly ordered someone to get Harper's measurements to order some clothes for her. As maids came
back and forth trying to get her appropriate measurements, Harper already had her doubts. Though she knew of the purpose
behind all these fittings and dresses, she had a theory that Sue had a plan of her own. She knew the woman would rather die
help her get to the emperor's good side. "My Lady, why does Lady Sue want to make clothes for you all of a sudden?" Nina furrowed her eyebrows as she felt something wrong about the whole thing.
