Love at the Wrong Table Emmanuel Lowe Chapter 765

Chapter 765

“Blake, do you want to teach that kid a lesson?”

Magnus suddenly spoke up.

“Well, I’ve considered it, but bullying someone younger than us isn’t really the

high road, is it?”

Blake gritted his teeth.

Although he was ugly, he still held onto his pride.

With a stunning woman by the child’s side, how could he allow himself to

bully a child in her presence?

“There are numerous ways to impart a lesson. You’re not his father, so

resorting to physical discipline is out of the question. Nonetheless, teaching a

lesson doesn’t always mean spanking.”

“Oh, what do you have in mind? Are you suggesting a strategy?”

Blake’s yearning to impart a bit of discipline to Tommy was palpable.

His feelings toward Tommy weren’t rooted in dislike, but he refused to be a

pushover.

There was no reason to be a doormat and endure bullying without retaliation,

right?

“Give him a treat to eat.”

Magnus suddenly took out a strange little box.

At the sight of it, Blake was startled. “Magnus, have you lost your mind? This is

a witchcraft worm!”

“You do have an eye for things.”

Magnus smiled and explained, “This is the mind-controlling witchcraft worm

that I obtained after visiting an elder in the Mysticwood. It took quite a bit of

effort to get.”

“I bet it wasn’t just effort, but also quite a bit of money. right?” Blake stared at

the box curiously and asked, “Mind-controlling witchcraft worm? What’s it

used for?”

He was a master arts expert in the inner martial world, but he didn’t have

much understanding of witchcraft worms. He only knew that these things

were real.

“I’ve heard it can control a person, and of course, it can also make them fall

ill,” Magnus explained while maintaining his smile.

“Control a person? Doesn’t that sound a bit too fantastical? If something like

that really existed, it’d be quite over the top.”

Blake waved his hand dismissively, and his skepticism was evident.

“Haha, I’m not entirely convinced either. So, why not give it a shot this time? If

it makes the kid sick and imparts a lesson to him, isn’t that a good thing?”

Observing Blake’s hesitation, Magnus deliberately began to tuck the box

away. “If you’re uninterested, then let’s forget it.”

“Who said I’m uninterested?”

Blake swiftly grabbed the box and immediately followed up with a question

as he asked, “Are you using a child as a test subject? Isn’t that too costly?”

Even a fool would know that these witchcraft worms must be quite valuable.

Magnus, renowned for his astuteness and intelligence, was unlikely to

engage in something so reckless.

Sure enough, Magnus’ smile turned deeper. “Of course, I have a clever

approach in mind, but I can’t reveal it just yet. Consider it a playfully

mischievous prank!”

“Haha, fine then!”

Blake thought that using this method to teach a little brat a lesson was quite

fitting.

After all, it was said that words could stir up trouble, and illness could enter

through the mouth. Allowing the child to fall ill once would likely discourage

him from making fun of others’ appearances in the future.

At this moment, Ryder and the rest paid no heed to the interaction between

Blake and Magnus. Father and son were engrossed in sharing a meal with

Tia.

Collectively, they found themselves hoping that she could become a part of

their family.

In truth, Tia harbored no romantic sentiments for Ryder, despite his valiant

rescue earlier in the day.

Nevertheless, most women tended to be emotional beings. Sensing the

genuine concern his family held for her, she knew that marrying Ryder would

likely mean she’d be cherished and cared for.

“Hehe, little brat!” Blake’s voice suddenly interjected, momentarily disrupting

the trio’s meal.

“What’s up? Mr. Ugly!”

Hey, Tommy, don’t call him that!”
