Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 599

When Minna saw that someone had spotted her doll, her face instantly turned deathly pale. In a second, she knelt down and held onto Cheryl's legs for dear life.

"Cheryl, I'm begging you. Please don't! I didn't hurt anyone! This is just my little secret as a young girl," Minna hysterically stated.

But Minna's petition fell to deaf ears as Cheryl exclaimed, "Liar!" She then casually grabbed what Minna was hiding in her arms. She said, "The voodoo curse has always been used to hurt people. But you said that you didn't hurt anyone. Then, you must tell me what you were doing or what you plan to do with it. Is it possible that you're going to use it to put a spell on His Majesty?"

As a matter of fact, the real purpose behind Cheryl's words was to simply stop Minna from talking. After all, Minna was a maid of fame and prestige in the Spring Palace. It was said that she had served the emperor several times, and he even wanted to give her a place in the palace. However, as soon as Cheryl started to question her, it seemed like Minna became a little stressed out. Naturally, it made Cheryl even more suspicious of her.

"Did you really use it to seduce His Majesty?" Cheryl asked again.

Minna was about to respond to her, but she stopped herself from doing so. After all, it was a very sensitive topic. As much as possible, she didn't want to talk about it. If she had not been caught by Cheryl, perhaps no one would have known about it.

"Tell me right now. If you don't, I'll take you to Her Majesty in a second. Do you know that your whole family and all of your relatives will be killed for using the voodoo curse?" Cheryl aggressively stated.

"Okay fine, I'll tell you." Minna did not stutter on her words but she suddenly became anxious. While looking at the thing that Cheryl took from her, she explained, "That is not a voodoo doll. It's used for a kind of spell called the Infatuation Spell. You only need to take the hair of the person you love, tie it in the doll, and pray devoutly every day. With these simple steps, the person you love will eventually love you back."

Hearing that, Cheryl rolled her eyes. She didn't believe everything that Minna said. But still, she asked, "Is it because of this that His Majesty is very affectionate to you?"

"Yes. Cheryl, I'm begging you. Please don't tell Her Majesty. If you do, she'll definitely have me killed," Minna pleaded while her face turned even more ashen.

Instead of answering her, Cheryl frowned at her and asked, "Is this thing really effective?"

"Of course it works. Every time His Majesty came to Lady Sherry's residence, he would instantly shower me with affection whenever I attended by his side. Fortunately, Lady Sherry is such a kindhearted woman. When she noticed that His Majesty likes me, she said she would give me to him. But I don't want to because I just want to stay with her. If Her Majesty finds out, she would have me killed without mercy. It's fine if I die, but I'm afraid that Lady Sherry would be in trouble as well." Minna was crying so much while she spoke that she was almost out of breath.
