Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 603

The empress was hoping that the emperor would ask for her opinion on how to deal with the girl he had spent the night with, but he never did. Instead, he took Cheryl away, making her his attendant.

Noticing how distorted the empress's face was due to so much anger, Nancy couldn't help feeling uneasy, so she said, "Your Highness, please calm yourself down. She is nothing but a bitch without an ounce of self-respect. For as long as she is in the Imperial Palace, you'd be able to get a chance to take care of her."

Hearing this, the empress took a deep breath and replied, "Have you received any news from Matthew's mansion?"

"No, I'm afraid not. We haven't heard from the fake Harper ever since she returned to Prince Matthew's mansion."

"I want you to pass a message to her. Tell her that even though she has managed to deceive everyone and masquerade as Harper, she still has to do whatever I tell her to do. Otherwise, she'll have to pay for it in the future."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Oh, and send Cheryl some gifts," said the empress in a cold tone. Despite the fact that the empress despised Cheryl from the bottom of her heart, she wouldn't let it show. There was no way she could ever let any evidence against Cheryl fall into the hands of the enemy. "Tell her to serve the emperor well."

"As you wish, Your Majesty." Seeing that the empress had finally pulled herself together, Nancy let out a sigh of relief. The angrier the empress was, the more she would need to calm down, because people tended to do unreasonable things when they were angry. In the Imperial Palace, even the tiniest slip-up could lead to irreversible consequences. For that reason, she had to remind the empress at all times.

As soon as Nancy had left, the empress closed her eyes in frustration. It wasn't after some time had passed that she opened her eyes again, and they were filled with coldness. "Well, well, well, Cheryl, aren't you such a good girl?"

Back at Matthew's mansion, the fake Harper wanted to go out. However, she was told that everyone in the Phoenix House wasn't allowed to go out unless they had the prince's permission!

"Steward, what did you just say to me?" the fake Harper asked in a cold voice. "Matthew has grounded me?"

"Your Highness, His Highness didn't mean to have you grounded. It's just that now isn't the right time to go out. His Highness simply wants you to keep staying in the Phoenix House for your own safety," Noah calmly answered. The smile he had on his face was comparable to the sun in March. Yet, the imposter only felt his smile was full of mockery.

"Is Matthew home? I want to see him."

"His Highness has his hands full at the moment and doesn't have the time to meet you," Noah flatly replied.

His response made the imposter feel a bit worried. She knew that Matthew loved Harper. The last time she was at Matthew's mansion, she witnessed firsthand how much he loved her. Knowing that, the fake Harper wondered why Matthew would insist on making her stay in the Phoenix House. On top of that, he hadn't even bothered to come to see her from the time they came back from the royal banquet.
