Forensic Imperial Concubine by Erika Black

Chapter 36

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 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

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

"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

Hansen, held onto his leg. "Your Highness, you said that you would take care of me." Hansen's
