Chapter 440 What’s Wrong With Me Playing with You?

Nicholas’s inquiry indicated that he still had faith in Simone.

Simone smiled and reassured him, “Don’t worry, Bailey is very capable.”

When the time comes, I will take Elbert to sellA

ince.

She looked at Mr. Lewis with a sly smile and asked, “Lewis, do you believe Bailey can solve these

poisonous insects? I will contine to provoke you, old man.

Lewis’s expression changed slightly, “Master Bailey is indeed powerful. But considering his personality,

it might not be easy for him to lend a hand.

This involved her mystical arts master who was in the Divine State

Given the ter

ient and taboos of that guy, it was unlikely that he would intervene.

Simone smirked and said, “Well, you have predicted it wrongly once more. Bailey has already agreed

to help me. Otherwise, how could I dare to make such a promise?”

Lewis telt the urge to vomit blood, “Then why did you invite me here? To deceive me?” Simone raised

an eyebrow. “Weren’t you invited by Salma? When did it become our invitation? Of course, if you think

I’m deceiving you, then so be it. You have deceived me so many times before. What’s wrong with me

deceivin: you once?”

Mr. Lewis almost couldn’t control himself. “You! I underestimated you, so let’s see how you solve the

curse for Elbert.” He felt so suffocated. He had never experienced this before. That little brat and the

Johnston Family were clearly just using him, and they never intended to seek his help in lifting the

curse.

No wonder the Johnston Family had been beating around the bush with him before; it must have be the

little brat’s idea. Not wanting to embarrass himself any further, he finished speaking, flicked his slee,

and left with the other three, leaving behind a very embarrassed Salma. She wanted to chase after ther

but she was afraid of provoking Lewis’s anger.

After they left, she looked at Simone and asked, “Are you intentionally opposing me? Clearly Mr. Lewis

can solve Elbert’s curse. Why did you drive him away? What if you and your Bailey fail to solve the

curse? What will happen to Elbert? I won’t be able to invite Mr. Lewis again.”

It w clear that Simone had angered the other party.

S none sighed and said, “Don’t you understand yet? You have been manipulated by him and Jodie

from

beginning to the end. Forget it; I can’t explain it to someone like you who holds your enemies in high

If you want to treat your enemies as good people and can’t see through people, then go ahead..

People like Salma would never realize their mistakes unless they got hit hard. She didn’t need to waste

her efforts trying to convince the other party.

After experiencing hardships, one naturally became more obedient.

Anyway, she didn’t owe her birth mother anything.

Saima feit a little flustered by Simone’s words, but she was even more angry.

it seemed like Simone was suggesting that she was naive.

But the president of the geomancy association couldn’t possibly be the villain Simone had described.

Su didn’t believe it that much.

She only felt that Simone’s main goal was to hold a rude nainst her and deliberately oppose her.

She took a deep breath, “I came here to help out of goodwill, but you insist on driving me away. Don’t

regret it later. Brother, you too. If something happens to Elbert in the future, don’t come looking for me

to ask the president of the geomancy association for help. I can’t face them.”

Nicholas wa abo angered. “Rest assured, we won’t trouble you, Salma, in the future.”

Karah pointed at the door with a stern face. “Leave; you’re not welcome in our family anymore.”

Salma is simp again.

ss and she’s still so self-righteous. This is not about saving my son at all but about harming him

She didn’t want to see her in the future.

Salm looked unhappily at Old Mr. and Mrs. Johnston, “Mom, Dad, how can you just let Nicholas and

them behave like this?”

Old Mr. Johnston looked disappointed. “Salma, you are no longer a part of our Johnston Family, so

don’t come again in the future.”

Old Mrs. Johnston also said, “Leave; you’re not welcome in the house anymore.”

She added, “If you continue to be so stubborn, you will regret it sooner or later.”

She didn’t know how Jodie brainwashed her, and she couldn’t listen to sincere words for her ownood.

Salma was hurt by her parents’ and brother’s attitudes.

Feeling wronged, she said, “You just don’t like me and don’t want me anymore because of Sime e.

Fine, I’ll leave. I won’t bother you with my presence anymore.”

After saying that, she walked away with tears in her eyes

dir. Johnston looked at Simone apologetically and said, “She’s just confused right now. You don’t have

Sigl, it’s worrying!

imone said indifferently. “I don’t care about her anyway.” She continued. Il handle the matters on

Cebros’ side and take Elbert to the ancient city in a few days.”

Nicholas nodded. “Okay, I’ll trouble you with that.”

Simone thought for a moment, took off the little snake on her arm, and handed it to Elbert. “Elbert, carry

this with you at all times. It can suppress the parasites in your body.”

The parasites were the food of the little snake, and it had a natural suppressing effect. With it around,

the wa ms wouldn’t dare to move. And with the little snake, it became even easier for her to remove the

curse. Otherwise, she was afraid that the old thing would use some method to awaken the worms and

cause mischief

hevolent aura on Sean’s side had also dissipated, and she would naturally wake up in a day or two.

Elbert thought it was a bracelet and put it in his pock, saying, “Okay, thank you, Simone.”

Simone didn’t stay long either; she just said goodbye and left.

Then, she told Joseph he could take action.

For the next two days, Deputy Minister Solomon had been trying to delay the progress of the

also contacted Deputy Minister Solomon to inquire about the progress, and the response he received

indicated that it would be completed soon. However, it turned out to be a mere perfitory response,

which was truly unacceptable.

As a result, he called Deputy Minister Solomon and scolded him severely. He then forcefully ordered

Deputy Minister Solomon to transfer the case to Joseph. At this point, he no longer needed to consider

Deputy Minister Solomon’s backer. Even if that individual held some power, they couldn’t be considere

Deputy Minister Solomon had no choice but to reluctantly hand over the case to Joseph. He was very

They also confirmed that Melinda had paid the warlock from Wocron to harm others. Therefore, the
