Forensic Imperial Concubine by Erika Black

Chapter 254

Rena rushed out of the room and went straight to the Phoenix House. A cold light flashed in Barry's eyes as he set his sights on
Rena. Before entering the room for detoxification, Matthew had ordered Barry to ensure that Harper was safe if he was not the
first one to come out.
Rena, however, didn't have the slightest idea about the arrangement Matthew had just made. Only one thought was lingering in
the back of her mind. That was, she had to make sure that Harper would die before Matthew so that they would be able to
accuse her of poisoning Matthew. That would clear her of any blame if Matthew died during his treatment.
"Harper Chu!" she shouted, as she kicked open the gate of the Phoenix House. With her sword unsheathed and already in her
hand, she bolted towards Harper, exclaiming, "Bitch, go to hell!"
Harper was sitting in the yard at that time, restless like a cat on hot bricks. Suddenly, she felt a sharp pain in the chest like she
was having a heart attack. Just then, Rena broke into her house.
Harper's heart sank, but she was unable to move because of the pain. The pain that she was feeling was incomparable to
anything she had felt before and it made her breath become labored. She wanted to ask for help, but the only person she was
with was Nina, who unfortunately couldn't fight.
"Guards!" Nina shouted at the top of her lungs. "Help us! An assassin is attacking us!"
Rena had already thought that killing Harper would be a piece of cake, but she never thought that she would be this lucky.
Harper's two maids who were good at fighting were nowhere near her at that time, and the only person she was with was a girl
who didn't have any set of fighting skills. A huge smile started spreading across Rena's face. Her plan was to go straight to

Harper, but upon seeing Nina, she couldn't help but kick her out of the way. When she came face to face with Harper, she
pointed her sword at her, ready to strike. Without a doubt, Rena was hell-bent on killing Harper.
Harper, on the other hand, was ready to fight back. Before she could, however, someone had already fended off Rena's sword

him. With her face pale and her breath bated because of the pain in her chest, she muttered, "Matthew... Matthew is in serious trouble!" "No wonder you had the guts to poison His Highness," Rena said in an accusatory tone. "It turns out that you have an affair with another man! I will make sure

person, but today, she felt that something was greatly amiss. It was an arduous task for her to utilize her full strength, so instead of fighting Rena, she was only able to hold her off. Apart from Jack, Forsythia and Elsie had also come in a hurry upon hearing the noise of fighting. In an instant, Rena was put at a disadvantage. Without wasting any more time, Forsythia and Elsie were already charging towards Rena. "You bitch!" Rena shouted, as she defended herself against two of Harper's maids. "You poisoned His Highness and had an affair with another man. Now you're ordering these people to kill me.

Amidst all the action that was happening, Jack carefully put Harper in a safe spot behind some trees. When she could finally
stand up firm on her two feet by herself, she took a deep breath and ordered, "Capture her!"
"Yes, Your Highness," Forsythia and Elsie responded in chorus, once again charging towards Rena. Rena's fighting skills were
mediocre at best. Fighting Forsythia solely was a hard nut for her to crack, but now, with both Forsythia and Elsie up against her,
she was easily overcome and captured in no time.
"Bitch!" Rena cursed as she glared at Harper. "How dare you do this to me! I am His Highness's concubine, and you are just an
unwanted person! You are a bitch!" Considering the situation she was in and all the odds against her, Rena was still feisty. This

yard. "How is Her Highness?" he asked Jack. Jack glanced at Harper. He was clueless as to why she was clutching her chest with her hand. It was his first time seeing her like this. Her face was as pale as a ghost. "I have informed Mister Rufus. His Highness said that if anything happens to him by any chance, you will be in charge of everything in the mansion, Your Highness," Barry said, relaying to Harper what Matthew
