Chapter 437
Billionaire’s Missing Darling
Alicia was not stupid; she was just worried and confused. She was frightened by the tragic situation of her brother, Ashley. When she heard the captainâs words, she immediately realized what Olivia had done.
you She raised her eyes to look at Olivia with hatred and anger, then shouted, âBerry, bitch! The golden voodoo worm is the guardian worm of the Flores family. How dare you let it hurt the members of the family? You have violated the family rules and will be executed!â
The guard captain mirrored Aliciaâs concern, recognizing the significance of the golden voodoo worm.
Serving as the guardian worms of the Flores family, they held crucial importance. Meanwhile, all family members possessed voodoo worms within their bodies, which had a direct connection to the golden one.
Should the golden voodoo worm cause harm to their kin, it could lead to catastrophic consequences.
After all, the clanâs existence might be at stake with the slightest mishap..
Hence, the guard captain must report this to the First Elder and let the elders decide.
He quickly left the room, shutting the door tightly, and arranged for someone to find the elders.
Alicia, with her face contorted with rage, continued to assist Ashley. Upon noticing that someone was seeking the First Elder, she promptly declared, âIâll come along.
The guard captain frowned.
Alicia said anxiously, âI know what happened the best. Let me go.â
âAlright. The guard captain nodded.
Hearing this, Alicia immediately followed the dispatched guard. As she ran, she called her parents.
âMum, something bad happened. Something happened. to Ashley! That bitch Berry activated the golden voodoo worm in her body to hurt Ashley. Ashley is now seriously injured. Come home immediately!â
Hearing about her sonâs injury, Lydia felt an excruciating pain in her heart. She cursed hatefully, âThat goddamn bitch! That girl is a demon. I shouldnât have given birth to her back then, let alone be kind enough to let her live. I should have strangled her to death on the day she was born.â
Lydia was furious. Ever since her second daughter had been born, she did not live a peaceful day.
Back then, she was treated as a demon, and it almost caused her demise.
If she had not successfully given birth to Alicia and Ashley, she would have died due to Berry.
In her eyes, Berry had never done her any good since she was little. When Berry finally proved to be somewhat useful and could replace Alicia as the Saintess, she somehow caused such a big mess within a few daysâ time.
She hated herself for being kind to Berry back then.
She wished she had strangled Berry on the day she was born. If she had done that, Ashley would not have had to suffer so much.
She pitied Ashley immensely.
After the call with Lydia, Alicia arrived at the First Elderâs home. She rushed over and shouted, âFirst Elder, bad news! That bitch Berry activated the golden voodoo worm in her body to harm Ashley.
Ashley is seriously injured now. You have to stand up for him! You have to beat that bitch Berry to death!â
When the First Elder heard Aliciaâs words, his first reaction was disbelief. âImpossible. How could the Saintess control a golden voodoo worm?â
The Saintess was merely the food for the golden voodoo worm, after all. If she could really control it, she would not be the Saintess but the Holy Lord.
Seeing that the First Elder did not believe her, Alicia stomped her feet anxiously. âItâs true. Believe me.
Go and take a look.â
The First Elder looked at the guard who had come with Alicia. When he saw the guard nod, he stood up sternly.
âLetâs go take a look.â The First Elder stood up and led his men over.
Inside the room, Olivia sat by the mirror, examining her appearance as she traced the lines on her face with her slender finger.
Seeing Oliviaâs calm and composed appearance, Charlee was about to cry from anxiety.
âSaintess! Oh, Saintess! Oh no, youâve hurt a member of the Flores family. The First Elder will definitely punish you.â
Charlee was so anxious that she spun in circles. âWhat should we do?â
âDonât worry. Nothing will happen to me.â Olivia comforted Charlee patiently. âSaintess!â Charlee was both afraid and worried. Her eyes were filled with helplessness as she asked, âWâWhatâs wrong with you?â Why did you do so many things that were out of line?
The Saintessâs position was already quite challenging. After all, she lacked the support of her family and did not receive affection from her parents.
For this incident, the clansmen would definitely execute her!
Charlee, a tenderâhearted and innocent girl, had not shared much time with the Saintess, but she felt deep sympathy for the unfortunate Saintess. She genuinely had the Saintessâs best interests at heart.
The worried Charlee attempted to devise a solution for the Saintess. âDonât look so calm. When the First Elder and the others arrive, just yield, offer an apology, 10.0 and say a few conciliatory words. This way, the situation will be resolved. Remember, youâre the Saintess, and you have the golden voodoo worm in your body. As long as you donât go too far, the First Elder wonât harm you severely. At worst, you might face some punishment. Although itâs uncomfortable, itâs better than losing your life.â
The laws in Wayne Country were incomplete. Essentially, each family governed its own territory.
Therefore, it would only require an order from the elders if one were to take someoneâs life.
Charlee was sincerely concerned for Olivia.
âYield and beg for mercy?â Olivia wanted to laugh when she heard these words. In her view, those individuals did not appear deserving of her acquiescence. Olivia did not look panicked at all. âThey should be the ones begging for mercy. If I dared to do something, I, of course, knew how to get off the hook.â
At this point, she smiled and raised her hand to pinch Charleeâs tender cheek, then said teasingly, âYou worry too much, you know? Donât think so much. Now, the Saintess wants to eat. Go and get me something.â
Charleeâs feet stomped in agitation. Despite her anxiety about Olivia, she felt powerless to change the situation. With a helpless nod, she proceeded to prepare. food.
Charlee encountered no obstacles from the guards stationed at the door, leaving the room effortlessly.
She made her way to the kitchen, requested some side dishes, and returned with a food box.
When she returned, she placed the dishes on the table.
As Olivia looked at the salad, jerky, and plain pasta on the table, she was a little surprised. âThatâs all I eat?â
Charlee hurriedly pointed at a plate of beef stew. âSaintess, thereâs meat.â
Olivia was silent.
Charlee explained softly, âAs the Saintess, youâre backed by your fellow clan members. Normally, you have access to a varied diet. However, Mrs. Flores has withheld your allowance this week, leaving the kitchen bare of ingredients. This is the best I could manage.â
Olivia now realized why.
Overwhelmed by hunger, she did not fuss over it, picking up the fork and starting to eat.
As she savored a few bites of beef, the door suddenly swung open, and a group of individuals hurried into the room. Alicia immediately darted to the forefront and pointed directly at Olivia. âYou bitch! How dare you hurt Ashley! Just wait and see!â
Olivia quickly thrust her fork, catching Aliciaâs pointing finger and forcing it to 10-08 Bihonaireâs Missing Darling bend backward.
With a crack, Aliciaâs finger was broken!
She screamed in pain.
Without lifting her head, Olivia forcefully dropped the fork on the floor. âIâve lost my appetite.â
The room fell into complete silence.
Everyone gasped.
They also thought to themselves, âHow arrogant is the Saintess!â
The First Elder approached to inspect Aliciaâs finger, which Olivia had fractured without even glancing up.
It appeared that Olivia did not take anyone seriously at all!
