Chapter 86 Cross Over To Harper (Part One)
Harper gave Elsie fifty taels of silver and told her to deal with Enya's funeral. Although it was Ruby who killed Enya, Elsie was well aware that it was Sue behind this. Sue was the real murderer.
Nina was confused when she saw how Harper treated Elsie. "My Lady, why..."
Harper didn't even let her finish her question. "As you know, I don't have many people working for me. If Sue wants to dig her own grave, fine. Ruby's vicious. If I get rid of her, I'll practically be cutting off one of Sue's arms. It's a good deal. My only problem is that I haven't thought of how I'm going to deal with Elsie."
"My Lady, do you want to take this opportunity to drive Elsie out?" Nina asked tentatively. After all, Elsie was working for Sue as a spy. Who knew what keeping her in the house would mean for Harper? Nina figured that kickin
must have assumed that you didn't want to work her anymore. Maybe that's why she killed Enya. If I hadn't found out the truth, she probably would have told you that it was I who killed Enya. If that happened, you would trust her more and hate me. She would thus gain your loyalty."
"Since Lady Sue has killed my sister, I'll no longer work for her. She asked us to poison you so you would be infertile," Elsie said as she wiped away the tears on her face. "I was worried that you would find out since you're a physician. So I replaced the poison with wheat flour. I didn't actually poison you, My Lady."
"If you had poisoned me, I definitely would have noticed. You're quite smart, aren't you?" Harper commended. If Sue had asked anyone else, they would have already done it without batting an eye. Elsie was clever this way.
