Time Travelling: My Love from the Royal Family

Hailey worked fast. After just two days, she came across the book which Harper had prepared especially for her. Based on what she discovered in the medical book, she decided to perform a blood test on Sue. To her surprise, the result matched the description written in the medical book.

"My Lady..." Abigail, Hailey's maid, was too shocked to finish her words.

"Mother was poisoned!" Hailey exclaimed. "Harper probably wasn't expecting that I would actually check the medical books or even borrow these medical books from her. Otherwise, she would have already disposed of this medical book long ago."

"My Lady, are you implying that Lady Harper poisoned Lady Sue?" Abigail asked, confused.

"Of course. Who else could it be?" Hailey said in a cold tone. "Think about it. Who's benefiting most from Mother's illness?"

"Of course it's Lady Harper, My Lady. She has taken over the domestic affairs of the mansion ever since Lady Sue has gotten ill. Right now, she holds a power that's befitting her identity," Abigail said, taking a guess. "

this was making Hailey both anxious and angry. If Sue were to succumb to the poison, she would lose her status. After so many years of planning and calculating, Sue was still a mere concubine on the official records, which meant Hailey was only a concubine's daughter. Sue had been trying very hard to persuade Harper into making Hailey Kelly's daughter on the records, but Harper strongly disapproved of it. That was the reason why they wanted to get rid of Harper in the first place. However, Harper managed to survive.

"My Lady, what are we supposed to do next? I boiled the herbs myself. I had my eyes on it during the entire time and I was sure no one touched it, but it was still poisoned. What should we do? If it keeps going on like this, Lady Sue wouldn't last very long." Abigail was getting so worked up. They still hadn't caught the person who was poisoning Sue. On top of that, they didn't even have any idea how that person did it. Now, Sue was spending more time sleeping than awake. Her condition was worsening at an alarming rate.
