"There's no antidote. The person who sold it to me said that the stuff is extremely potent and dominant, and you have to do it every night..." Yetta said very seriously. "And you have to persist for at least forty-nine days, and you need to mark it every day!"
Seeing Adeline's embarrassed expression, Yetta walked over and nudged her elbow, chuckling.
"Anyway, you and Uncle Curtis are husband and wife, so it doesn't matter. This might even improve your relationship, and who knows, if you're diligent enough, you might conceive a child sooner."
When Adeline heard "conceive a child," it felt like a stab to her heart.
Yetta, who had always been a bit foolish, couldn't read Adeline's expression and continued, "But, we don't know if the medicine has any impact on pregnancy. To be safe, you should still use contraception."
Alston, hearing his young wife say so much, cleared his throat discreetly. "This medicine doesn't require an antidote; it's a multivitamin."
"Multivitamin?" Adeline and Yetta exclaimed in unison. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Alston gave Yetta a look. "Did you really think there's a medicine in this world that requires you to do something for forty-nine days, or you'll die? And did you think I'd let you take that?"
Yetta didn't understand. "But the black market guy..."
"That's my person."
Yetta suddenly realized and blushed. "Honey, you're so annoying, deliberately making it sound so mysterious."
Alston didn't shy away and smiled openly. "I have to secure some benefits for myself, don't I?"
Curtis and Adeline couldn't find a word to say.
Did this couple know that they hadn't left yet?
Adeline had thin skin and couldn't bear to listen any longer. She pushed Curtis to leave.
Just as they reached downstairs, Logan walked in.
Adeline spoke up first, "Logan, I need to talk to you. Let's sort out our situation."
As soon as she finished speaking, Viola also entered, her voice sweet and complaining.
"Sis, what are you going to say to Logan? He just promised to take me to visit the old mansion! I haven't been here in a long time, and many places have become unfamiliar."
Adeline's expression turned slightly cold. "It won't take long. Logan, give me ten minutes. Let's talk privately and resolve our issues."
Before she could finish speaking, Victoria walked in, wearing a smile. "Adeline, you're in the wrong here. Viola came all the way here, and it was me who asked Logan to take her for a tour. Viola is a guest after all."
Logan nodded in agreement. "Yes, Adeline, can't we discuss this later? I want to have a proper conversation with you. Ten minutes won't be enough, and besides, Viola is your sister. Shouldn't you be happy that I'm spending time with her? Adeline, I just want to improve the relationship between our families."
Adeline felt exasperated by Logan's persistence. "Whether you accompany Viola or Jodie, it has nothing to do with me anymore, Logan. We've already broken up. I'm just being responsible and want to explain to you why we broke up. Because I believe you have the right to know the truth."
As her words fell, Victoria turned pale, nervously speaking up, "Adeline, isn't what you're saying the same as not saying anything? Your words, both overtly and subtly, are still about you being very jealous of Viola and Jodie, right?"
Adeline saw through Victoria's guilt-ridden expression and smirked. "Victoria, you don't have to twist the facts. Are you afraid that I'll reveal everything you've done? I gave you a chance to confess on your own. Since you're unwilling to speak up, I'll do it for you!"
