Sue's condition continued worsening with each passing day. It even came to a point where she could no longer take care of
herself at all. Because of that, Charles had completely lost interest in her and had no plans to visit her whatsoever. As a matter of
fact, he even ordered his servants to have Sue moved out of her place and take her into a relatively remote house. But worst of
all, there were only two maids taking care of her right now.
In order to make sure that Hailey would stop looking into the fact that Sue had been poisoned, Charles forbade everyone from
paying Sue a visit—including Hailey, of course. The way things stood, it was rather apparent that he had totally given up on Sue
already. Apart from that, Mavis steadily and persistently refused to register Hailey as Kelly's daughter, leaving Hailey feeling
extremely irritated and worried. If Sue succumbed to the poison, Hailey knew full well that her chances of being registered as
Kelly's daughter would be close to none. If it came to that, she would be caught up in an even worse situation.
"My Lady, I just saw Lacy passing by," Tina reported to Harper as soon as she entered the room. "Lacy went to meet Prime
Minister Charles earlier. It appears that Lady Sue's condition has been improving lately and she wants to see him. But he refused
to go and see her."
"She's starting to feel better?" Harper asked, feeling a little surprised. After all, she was well aware of how the Nightmare worked.
Once a person had been poisoned by it, their body would gradually get weaker. Yet here Tina was, informing her that Sue was

no idea. Still, she thought she should pay her a visit to see for herself and find out what was really happening.

The place where Sue was currently staying in was so quiet and peaceful. With the guards at the entrance fast asleep, a black
figure managed to sneak into the house. Who would have thought someone would come to visit this place this late in the
evening?

Hearing this, Lacy simply shook her head and replied, "I didn't even get to see him, My Lady. He made it obvious that he did not want to see me at all. So, I failed to deliver your message to him.

that Charles was a more ruthless person than she originally thought.
"Mother, you can't be so naive. Do you have any idea why you've been sick all this time? Do you know why you have been
getting weaker and weaker?" Hailey anxiously said, not having the heart to see her mother be so blind. "It's all because you've
been poisoned. To be honest, I was suspecting Harper at first, so I told Father about it right away. But when I did that, Father
