Just when Harper was about to fall asleep, she heard the clamor outside. Not knowing what happened, she turned over and
covered her head with the quilt, trying to sleep. Yet the outside noise continued to disrupt her sleep. Finally, she was forced to
get up. She pushed the door open and yelled, "Why are you screaming so early in the morning? Mourning? I'm still alive!"
In an instant, the courtyard fell silent. Ruby stared at Harper as if she had seen a ghost. It seemed that she did not expect Harper
to be at home. And then, she even quickly glanced at Enya.
"My Lady, Nanny Ruby insisted on coming in and said Lady Sue is waiting for you at her place," Nina replied hurriedly.
"Mother wants to see me?" Harper rolled her eyes upwards. "What's up?"
Ruby took a deep breath and calmed down before she replied, "Lady Sue said Lady Hailey would be back today. So she wants
you to wait for her there, My Lady."
"Nina, give her a slap!" Harper looked at Nina and yelled out angrily. No sooner did Harper finish her words than Nina turned
around and slapped Ruby in the face. It happened so fast that Ruby could not even do anything for her self-defense. She was
left aghast.
"You bitch! How dare you hit me! Even Lady Sue has never hit me. How dare you! I'll kill you!" Ruby flared up in rage and rushed
to retaliate with a fiercer blow on Nina.
Harper sneered, "Nanny Ruby, I am surprised to see your audacity. I'm the daughter of Father's legal wife. How dare you ask me
to wait for a concubine's daughter!"
Upon hearing this, Ruby retorted immediately, "My Lady, you're the daughter of Prime Minister Charles' wife, but so is Lady
"Huh? Are you insane?" Harper smirked at Ruby. "Nanny Ruby, don't you know the laws of the country? Once a concubine,
always a concubine. Even though my father honored Lady Sue to be the hostess, she is still a concubine on the official records.
And since she is a concubine, Hailey is a concubine's daughter. You want to violate the law?"

But she might not be aware that this old maid just pretends to comply on the face but opposes in the heart. She doesn't respect me!" "Yes, My Lady." Ruby was appalled by Harper's words. Though she wanted to resist, she ended up standing like a stone as Nina approached her. "Nanny Ruby, you'd better not run.

As soon as Harper left, Ruby's eyes were blazing with hatred. She had been Sue's wet nurse. In all these years, no one ever
dared to show disrespect to her, but Harper even had the nerve to humiliate her like that!
Anabel glanced at Ruby and said, "Enya, Elsie, why don't you see Nanny Ruby off? Lady Harper will come back for breakfast
very soon. It's time to prepare the meal."
Enya and Elsie exchanged looks with each other and said, "Nanny Ruby, please."
Ruby rolled her eyes at Enya. She got to her feet and staggered out of the yard. After she got out, she gave a ferocious glance at
