A shrill howl interrupted the conversation from outside.Olivia heard the bells ringing, and Willow ran outside.Some of the bodyguards suddenly sprawled onto the ground.Ethan scooped Willow into his arms. "Run!"She gestured, assuring him that she wasn't afraid of this. Then, she freed herself from his embrace.Leia didn't know much about spells. However, the fact that those people collapsed out of the blue surely had something to do with spells.In fact, those bugs were just a feint. Other cursed bugs were used while Olivia's party was distracted. Ethan was used to using military force in confrontation. However, their radar could only detect drones, not bugs. Some bugs were so tiny that they could enter a human body and end someone's life without them knowing.It might sound like a myth, but those who had experienced it before knew how scary cursed bugs could be. Willow hurriedly rushed to those who had fainted. They all showed similar symptoms—foam around their mouths, e

Despite her frail state, Jacqueline was over the moon at the thought that the person she hated the most was going to die. Ever since their lives were switched, peace could never settle between them. Only one out of two could survive.Jacqueline knew how heavy the consequences were considering what she had done. The worst case possible would be her dying a tragic death. Either way, it wouldn't make much difference. It would just be death.Even if she beat Olivia, she would have to deal with the Fordhams, the Heaths, and the Millers. There was nowhere else she could escape to. Everything was going as she had planned. She intentionally promised Olivia to confess everything to buy some time. Meanwhile, Olivia didn't dare to act recklessly. She focused intently.There were many types of spells, and different people could cultivate different species of poisonous bugs. Still, regardless of the species, the murder could be committed only if the bug touched human skin. As long as she cou

Olivia fainted so suddenly that Ethan couldn't register the situation yet. All he could do was to make assumptions. She had been the enemy's target since the beginning. Willow ran toward Olivia's side. The intense ringing bell gave away how anxious she was. Ethan darted to reach Olivia. He didn't know spells, so he didn't know what to do at this time. All he could do was stand right there. He tried to touch her with his hands, but he soon withdrew them."Willow, w-what happened to your mother?" His voice trembled in concern.A pale-faced Olivia lay on the floor as though she was sleeping.While Willow was still checking on Olivia, Jacqueline suddenly blurted from behind, "Stop wasting your time. Olivia's gonna be gone for good!"She could've just stayed silent. Now that she had spoken up, Ethan turned his head and glared at her. Before she could react, he grabbed her neck and pinned her against the wall. The iron chains rattled as the back of her head hit the wall.Her head bega

Leia grabbed Ethan's hand. "Calm down, Ethan. We don't know what's happening to Olivia. You have to keep Jacqueline alive."He gazed at Olivia, who was lying on the floor. He was so furious that his nerves were protruding at the back of his hand, which was holding the gun tightly. No one knew how much he wished he could shoot that crazy woman at this moment. Seeing his hand slowly drooping, Jacqueline knew that she had won the bet. Olivia was the key for her to escape from here. No one dared to hurt the beloved Olivia; everyone adored her. No matter how much Ethan resented Jacqueline, his best bet was to keep her alive.There was nothing he could do right now. All he could do was to watch Willow check on Olivia. Willow gestured, "Mom's safe for now.""Do you know if Jacqueline's telling the truth?" Ethan asked. Willow shook her head. "I can't find out what kind of curse it is just by looking at Mom. But I'm sure that she's safe for now."Still, concern sat upon her brows.

The familiar sound called upon Scarlet, who glided its way toward them quickly.Although Kelvin and Brent had met this snake before, its presence never failed to scare them. Its size was that of a small hill. The fact that it was alive and extending its forked tongue still made it hard for them to believe that it was real.When Kelvin met its piercing eyes, he thought he was going to faint.Meanwhile, it was Leia's first time meeting such a humongous snake, and it was a venomous snake at that. To her surprise, the others didn't show any intention of dodging it. Willow even took a few steps forward!"Watch out!" Leia instinctively reached out for Willow.Surprisingly, the snake lowered its head meekly. The huge creature was behaving meekly in front of such a young child!Willow stroked its scale as a sign of greeting. "Long time no see."Leia had experienced many kinds of things in life, but this was by far the most absurd situation she had ever encountered. She couldn't believ

Leia stopped Kelvin. "We need her alive. If she's telling the truth, Olivia's life is bound with hers. Both of them will die together."He threw the bucket away and flopped on the staircase. "Just what is all this, Ms. Miller? Mr. Miller has had it tough winning Mrs. Miller's heart back. Don't make me bring up those years she went missing. "Every single day felt so long for him. They love each other so much, but everything keeps getting in their way. And the bad guys are free out there." "I know. I understand. I know more than you do how much Ethan loves Olivia. I'm the reason they ended up this way. I want Jacqueline dead more than you do. She lied to me for so long and made me hurt Olivia. But what's done is done. We can't do anything. All we can do is to keep Jacqueline alive and wait."Kelvin's eyes were red. The last time he was this upset was the time Ethan was poisoned. No doctors could save him, and death was waiting ahead of him. Ethan managed to survive it, but now, it

Wendy nodded. "That is the principle. But considering how life-threatening this curse is, I bet the crafter is one dangerous witch. Olivia's life is in their hands. It's going to be hard to find out what their weakness is.""What should we do?""An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. Since that witch has cursed Olivia, we'll curse Jacqueline. We can at least have a plan B when that witch decides to go back on their word."Ethan's eyes lit up in hope. "I don't know anything about curses. Please help us, Madam Wendy."He then bowed to her. "Please save my wife, Madam Wendy. I'll grant any wish you ask for."Wendy sighed at his genuine request. "I just don't understand why things have to turn out this way for both of you. Get up. I know Olivia loves you too. Olivia and I have lived together for some time. And I've grown fond of her. There's no way I'll turn a blind eye to this."She patted his shoulder. Her expression remained solemn. "Only powerful witches can cast this kind of

Brent concocted something simple for Jacqueline. She took a spoonful of it and suddenly swept the bowl off the table. "What the hell is this? Is this even edible?"Leia slapped her. "You should be grateful that you have something to eat. You're not in the position to be picky."Jacqueline growled, "Leia Miller, I'm warning you, Olivia's life is in my hands now. If you don't treat me well, I'll kill her!"That was her only yet useful bargaining chip.Brent, who didn't know much about curses, reined in his anger. "Ms. Fordham, as you can see, this village is isolated. The villagers have never interacted with the outside world. This is what they eat every day. The rice you looked down on is the corps they cultivated with their blood, sweat, and tears. "There are no snacks or gourmet food here. Even if you ask for something better, the best cook here won't be able to make it."Jacqueline had observed how backward the village was and knew that he had a point.She suppressed her fury

Most of the women in the world were afraid of mollusks. If one fell from the tree and landed on their hand by chance, they would scream at the top of their lungs.Still, the young Willow had just thrown a cursed worm into Jacqueline. Jacqueline clearly felt something squishy in her mouth. It was wriggling too!She yelled in disgust."Shut up." Leia shoved a piece of cloth into Jacqueline's mouth. Jacqueline was so caught off-guard that she swallowed the worm. She wasn't sure if she was overthinking it, but she could feel it sliding through her esophagus. It was so disgusting that it gave her goosebumps. Willow made sure Jacqueline had swallowed the cursed worm before removing the cloth.Like a madwoman, Jacqueline got on her knees and tried to vomit to remove the worm from her. However, no matter what she did, the only thing that came out of her was bile because she hadn't eaten anything for more than 20 hours.She glared at Willow. "What did you feed me?"Willow gestured i

Leia's face remained expressionless as she stripped Jacqueline down."You must be desperate to kill me, huh? I played you guys like fools you are. But you can't kill me. To top it off, you have to serve me too."Suddenly, Leia dunked Jacqueline's head into the water. Jacqueline held the rim of the bathtub, wriggling to break free from the coercion. But Leia wasn't going to give her the chance to do so.As the typical cruel woman, Leia waited for a while before yanking Jacqueline's hair upward. After Jacqueline barely caught a few breaths, Leia dipped her head into the water again. The torture repeated a few times.In the end, Leia grabbed Jacqueline's hair tightly. "I can't kill you, but I'm strong and have many ways to torture you. You can try me."Jacqueline's upper body was drenched. She thought her hair was going to fall off her head.The torture went on for a while, but Jacqueline let out an ambiguous smile. On the other hand, Olivia, who had been unconscious, suddenly
