Leia stopped Brent. “Don’t kill her. If what she said is true, then my sister-in-law’s life is linked to her. If you kill her, my sister-in-law will not be able to live either.” Brent threw the water scoop aside and sat down on the steps dejectedly.
“Miss, what do you think is going on? Our sir has been chasing his wife all the way, and it’s been so hard, especially during the years when his wife disappeared. What kind of life did he live every day? Two people who are clearly in love have to go through so many hardships, while these bad people are living well. I feel so upset! Why don’t people like them die earlier?” Leia said, “I understand. I know my brother’s feelings for my eldest sister-in-law better than you do. It’s all because ofthat they have cto this point today. I want to kill her more than you do. She deceivedfor so long and madedo something to my eldest sister-in-law, but now things have cto this point. There is nothing we can do. We can only keep her alive and wait for the result.” Brent, a grown man, had red eyes. The last the was so sad was when Ethan was poisoned. People said that he was incurable and was about to die.
But less than a year later, Ethan cback to life, and Olivia was poisoned again.
Brent looked at Ethan at the door.
Ethan said nothing; his face was solemn, and all the emotions in his body were concentrated in the room. He looked so nervous and cautious; how could he be the sas before? How could God be so blind as to find ways to tease the two of them? Kelvin smoked a cigarette silently in the corner and slowly spoke in the suffocating atmosphere, “Give her something to eat. Miss Miller is right. That bad lady must be kept alive.” Jacqueline was injured before coming here, and she traveled through mountains and rivers and was hungry for almost a day and a night. Now she was only half alive.
Although Brent was a little dissatisfied, he had to do as he was told.
When the door opened, Ethan rushed in.
“Madam Wendy, how is Liv?” Wendy’s head was full of sweat. Ethan didn’t know what she had done, and she looked very tired.
“She didn’t lie to you. The girl was indeed infected with the Deathsting Bug.” Ethan took two steps back. “So Liv’s life is connected to her. If she dies, then Liv will also…”
“That’s right.” Wendy showed a look of pity on her face. “How did you provoke such a powerful Ashbluff? This Deathsting Bug was originally E used on his partner to confirm his partner’s loyalty, but now that person has made improvements to make the bug more poisonous.”
Ethan said, “Madam Wendy, this is a long story. I will explain it to you later. Is there no way to deal with the bug in Liv’s body now? Since Jacqueline is here too, can’t they all be taken out at the stime?”
“What a silly boy.” Wendy smiled helplessly. “What do you think a bug is? It is raised by people, just like your cats and dogs. Compared to cats and dogs, this thing is more aware of its owner. Each bug recognizes its own master, and it is not a stupid dog like a Husky that will run away just because someone calls it twice.” Ethan asked, “What if we force the bug out?” “The bug will choose to self-destruct when it senses danger, just like a killer who commits suicide by taking poison after being exposed. Once it self-destructs, Liv will die.” Ethan asked, “So, we can only find the person who poisoned her?”
