Chapter 763: Chapter 765 Waylon Spoils His Sister

“It has everything to do with the south-facing attribute, which is light,” Emmeline responded on Waylon’s behalf.

“The willow tree branch must face south because eyes require light, and facing south provides that light element.”

“I see.”

Abel felt like he learned something new, and he went with Benjamin to fetch the willow tree branches.

Waylon asked Emmeline, “Who poisoned you with Wraith Petal?”

Emmeline replied, “I don’t know. I was like this when I woke up.”

She considered it while cocking her head. She said, “It must be Anthony. He doesn’t want me to see his face.”

Waylon was doubtful. He asked, “The Imperial Palace’s Palace Lord? How would he learn about Wraith Petal?”

Emmeline answered, “How would I know? And there’s vampire dust, which is another poison from our clan.”

Waylon remarked, “I am aware of vampire dust. Five years ago, Anthony stole that formula from my computer, but Wraith Petal doesn’t make sense.

Emmeline wondered, “So you’re saying there’s someone behind him? And this person is aware of the affairs of our clan.”

Waylon furrowed his brow and responded, “It’s really strange. Later, I’m going to talk with my father about this.” “Hey, don’t tell Master Robert I’m in trouble, or none of us will live peacefully,” Emmeline reminded, sticking out her tongue. “You’re actually afraid of him?” Waylon tapped Emmeline’s forehead, and he urged, “You need to be more thoughtful in the future. When will you stop acting impulsively?” “I know!” Emmeline hugged Waylon’s arm and acted coquettishly, saying, “Waylon, stop lecturing me.

You’re giving me a headache!” Waylon scratched her head and teased, “You’re afraid of me? Your mouth is the only thing that would admit defeat. Next time, you’ll be up to your old tricks again!” “Hey, don’t forget the problem with my head!” Emmeline remembered the bald scar on the back of her head as he scratched it. She took Waylon’s hand to touch it, and she grumbled, “My hair is gone. Look at me; I must look hideous.” Waylon chuckled and said, “I don’t give a damn about that. If you are bald, you won’t run around recklessly.”

Emmeline, acting enraged and chided, said, “Waylon, I knew it! You’re no longer in love with me!”

Waylon said as he gave her a hug and coaxed her like he was coaxing a child, “Hahaha, how could that be? Emma is the one I love most.”

“Then why did you say you didn’t give a damn about me?” Emmeline complained and puffed her cheeks.

Waylon looked at her indulgently and said with a laugh, “I’m just kidding. I could ignore everyone, but not Emma.”

“I know you are teasing me!”

Emmeline grinned broadly as she rested her head on Waylon’s shoulder.

Waylon is nine years older than me, and he really cherished me like a treasure. If there are any suitable girls around, I would like to set them up, but then again, Waylon isn’t interested in dating. He thought it was a waste of time and energy.

The two chatted and laughed affectionately.

Janie watched from the side, enviously.

Her expression caught Waylon’s attention, and he got to his feet to give Janie a glass of water. He said, “Ms. Janie, have some water.”

Emmeline said from the side, “Yeah, Janie, you’re expecting. Make sure you’re getting enough water to drink.”

“Thank you, Mr. Adelmar,” Janie said with a gentle smile, taking the glass of water in her hands.

Abel and Benjamin left, and shortly after, they came back carrying a bundle of willow branches.

Waylon asked Kendra to boil some water with some of the fresher ones he picked out. He also prepared the vampire dust’s cure in the interim.

Emmeline was given some warm water by Abel.

She began to lightly sweat after only ten minutes, and the effects of the vampire dust were completely gone. Emmeline felt relaxed all over and wanted to test if her skills had recovered in the living room.

Abel accompanied her, and they spared briefly. He then pretended to be defeated by Emmeline, and his absurd moves made everyone laugh.

It was midday, and everyone was starving by this point. The three men happily cooked a meal and took care of lunch.

The water that boiled with the willow tree branches had cooled down as well. Under Waylon’s direction, Abel helped Emmeline wash her eyes.

“Urgh!” Emmeline cried out in pain.
