Big Novel

Harper remained in the Emerald House after the poisoning incident. Those who wanted her dead couldn't find any chance to do
anything to her.
Yvonne's wedding dress had finally arrived. Prince Kevin's servants delivered the dreamy red dress. When Yvonne tried it on
along with a crown of pearls on her head, her entire being glittered and moved Carrie to tears. Who would have thought that her
daughter would find herself getting married in such a lovely gown and to a prince's heir no less? It was one of those things she
did not let herself imagine as a concubine.
"Oh, my dear daughter! You look so beautiful in your wedding dress." Carrie couldn't help but admire Yvonne. Say anything you
want about Charles and his shamelessness, but it couldn't be denied the good looks he had passed down to his daughters.
Yvonne's happiness radiated from her. As she looked at herself in the mirror, she began to realize how far she had come. She
was going to marry the heir of Prince Kevin tomorrow! After tomorrow's ceremony, no one would dare insult her as the daughter
of a concubine. No one would dare beat her blue and black. She was going to step up in ranks and become a member of the
imperial family.
"Mother, nobody would dare step on us now!" Yvonne said excitedly. From now on, her mother's status in the Chu Clan would
improve. And even better, she wouldn't have to bow down to Sue anymore. She would outrank that bitch from tomorrow.
Carrie grinned. "Prince Kevin's family still thinks highly of you. Take a look at the wedding dress, the crown and the jewelry! They
all look so expensive, especially the wedding dress. It smells so good!"
Yvonne smelled the wedding dress on her body. It surely smelled nice. Prince Kevin's servants must have sprayed some kind of
high-class perfume on the dress. How considerate they were!
At midnight, a number of maids were sent from the Prince Kevin's mansion to begin preparing Yvonne for her big day. Even
though she wasn't of noble birth, she was carrying Hansen's child. Besides, Kate had already felt attached to the unborn child,
and therefore, she treated Yvonne like a fragile glass.
Because she had begun amassing a considerable amount of money since taking over the family affairs of the Chu Clan, Carrie
had some money to spare. She gave the maids who attended Yvonne some silver to give thanks for all their hard work. In turn,
the maids expressed their gratitude. "Congratulations to Lady Yvonne!"
Yvonne was beside herself with joy and excitement. She couldn't believe how her life would turn out to be. Every moment felt
light and magical. It felt like she was in a dream she never wanted to end.

Charles' son was not in the Chu Clan mansion. So instead, Charles himself led Yvonne out of the mansion. Watching as Charles
led Yvonne, Carrie couldn't help but feel overwhelmed by emotions. Her daughter would enter Prince Kevin's mansion now! She
was going to be the wife to an heir of a real prince! If she made good use of this new rank, she could wield unbelievable power
within the Chu Clan.
Harper stood quietly along the sidelines, watching as servants lifted Yvonne into the bridal sedan chair. Beside them was
Hansen, who was riding on a horse. A faint smile appeared on Hansen's face. Harper also caught a glance of Felicia, who was
peeping at the door. Hatred distorted Felicia's face, which made Harper very happy.
Sue naturally noticed that Felicia sneaked out. In order not to offend Charles, Sue secretly sent the servants to take Felicia away.
She cast a meaningful look at Carrie after making sure the servants did as told. Harper caught this little interaction and realized
that she was not the only one who did something to Yvonne. It would be an eventful night tonight, which was for sure. She could
only hope that Prince Kevin's mansion could withstand the chaos it was about to see tonight.
Charles and Carrie came back to the Chu Clan mansion first. Harper trailed behind them and so did Sue. "You have tried so hard
to help Yvonne. But it seems that Yvonne and Carrie don't appreciate your kindness at all," Sue said mockingly.
"What are you talking about?" Harper asked Sue with an innocent look.
Sue sneered and said, "Harper, don't make a mistake. A concubine can never break free from who she truly is. And so do her
daughter. The elders have this saying: A sparrow will never become a phoenix even after it ascends unto a higher branch."
Harper smiled and looked at Sue with an odd expression that irritated Sue. "Why are you looking at me like that?" Sue asked,
doubt creeping in.
"Your words reminded me of something," Harper replied.
Even though her gut told her Harper couldn't have meant it as anything good, she couldn't help but ask, "What do you mean?"
"Once a concubine, always a concubine," Harper said clearly. Sue's face instantly paled. She almost wanted to slap Harper in
her face, but she held back. She used to think that Harper was an arrogant girl. Sure, she had admirable medical skills. But she
wasn't too smart. And arrogant people like that were easy to control.
But after Harper came back from the place of execution, she had changed completely. She was no longer arrogant and
aggressive. She became a considerate person. But there was something about her kindness that made Sue wary.

"My Lady." Ruby pulled the sleeve of Sue as a warning. Sue drew her attention from Harper and went inside the mansion.
'Things have just begun. And if Carrie thinks that everything will be just fine after her daughter marries His Highness, then she's
simply stupid!' she thought angrily to herself. Carrie and Yvonne's bright future hung on Yvonne's unborn child. If something were
to happen with Yvonne's child, there would be hell to pay.
Thinking of this, Sue looked resentfully at Harper's leaving figure. If it weren't for Harper, that bitch wouldn't have become
Hansen's wife. This was unacceptable to her. She had once thought Carrie was a wise woman who could do her a good favor in
the future. But it turned out she was also useless. In that case, there was no need to keep her alive.
The whole Chu Clan celebrated Yvonne's wedding. All of the family members gathered together for dinner. At the party, Charles
was very happy and had a drop too much. Mavis was also very happy. But her old age seemed to catch up with her and she got
tired easily after a short while. Annie helped her go back to her own room.
