Chapter 183

"Indeed. She is full of arrogance," Katrina said resentfully. "Your brother even suspects that someone else has taken her identity,
but this is the real her. Only she knows I once asked her to deal with Anita."
"Aunt, let me deal with Lady Chloe for you. However, as long as Harper stays in the Chu Clan mansion, there will be no peace
among us. She might even turn Father and Grandma to stop helping you. Besides, it seems that Princess Nicole favors her. Her
Highness always agrees with Harper. She is a disaster just waiting to unfold. We must get rid of her at once, before she causes
us trouble," Hailey suggested. It was a sore sight for her to see Harper living in comfort.
"Harper will either stays in the Chu Clan mansion or in the Imperial Academy of Medicine after the new year celebration. What
would be the best way to deal with her?" Katrina shared Hailey's sentiments. If she could, she would have already killed Harper.
But as things stood, they had exhausted all means for their attempts, only to be met by failure after failure. To make matters
worse, Harper was living a better life now. At the thought of how the girl said the words in her presence, as if she was mocking
her, Katrina clenched her fists as fury burned.
"Your Highness, I have an idea," an old nanny by Katrina's side said.
"What is it?" Katrina asked in confusion.
The old nanny gave an enigmatic smile. "Your Highness, it would be very easy to kill someone, but wouldn't it be better to let

them suffer first?"
Katrina's and Hailey's gazes were fixed on the old woman. "And how do you suggest we do that?"

or aristocrats were willing to let their daughters marry into Prince Matthew's mansion!
"Will His Highness agree?" Hailey put forth a difficult problem. Even with the emperor's approval, if Matthew refused, then their

"Even if he turns it down, we would suffer no loss." The nanny smiled meaningfully. "If word goes out that Prince Matthew, the

it would be a terrible insult to Harper. She would be a pariah, and no man in the imperial capital would want to marry her later. She would be alone for the rest of her life. On the other hand, if Prince Matthew agrees, her life would be in his hands. He can kill her anytime. Moreover, Prime Minister Charles is loyal to His Majesty.
