Chapter 242 Let Me Tell You a Joke
At this moment, when she was pushed away, Summer froze for a moment, her expression changing rapidly.
With a mix of surprise and shock on her face, she stared at Lachlan, unable to look away.
Summer never expected to be rejected like this. She was a rare beauty, and with her enchanting spell in effect, she had cast a spell on this man.
Under normal circumstances, all she had to do was beckon with her finger, and he would be intoxicated by her charm. But now, he pushed her away?
“Lachlan, what are you doing? What do you mean? I have liked you for so long, and I have given myself to you without hesitation. Why are you hesitating? Are you even a real man?” Summer asked, her face darkening with resentment and bitterness.
Lachlan waved his hand dismissively and said, “I’m not ready yet! Why did you come to me today? Let’s talk about something important first!”
Summer seductively gave Lachlan a glance and frowned, asking, “Isn’t this important? What else could be more important?”
As she spoke, she bit her lip and leaned closer to Lachlan once again.
But this time, Lachlan exerted force with his hand, and a surge of energy pushed Summer away.
“Ah!” Summer exclaimed, regaining her balance, her pretty face completely darkened.
She showed a hint of anger and stared at Lachlan, gritting her teeth. “Lachlan, could it be that you are not capable in that aspect? I gave you a chance to be intimate with me, and you refused? Do you want me to ignore you forever?”
Hearing this, Lachlan looked at Summer and smiled. “Ignore me? I’m so scared! Do you really think I’ve become your lapdog?”
Hearing Lachlan’s question, Summer was momentarily stunned, then her face filled with arrogance. “What’s wrong? Isn’t that the case? You don’t want to be my lapdog?”
Lachlan responded in a deep voice, “Let me tell you a joke, how about that?”
Summer raised an eyebrow. “What joke? Are you in the mood for jokes at a time like this, when a night of passion is worth a fortune?”
Lachlan chuckled and began, “There was a wolf who wanted to make a deal with a sheep. For this, it concealed its ferocity, restrained its claws! And the sheep, actually believed it was a dog! Do you find that funny or not?”
Hearing this, Summer’s expression changed, and she became somewhat embarrassed and angry. “What do you mean by that?”
Lachlan coldly snorted, and in the next second, his expression changed, and a burst of energy erupted from within him.
Pfft!
After a sound that only Lachlan could hear, the love potion in his body suddenly exploded!
“Uh… hmm!”
With this, Summer couldn’t help but groan, her pretty face turning pale.
The love potion was a high-quality emotional insect that she had raised with her own blood. As the insect burst open, she was immediately hit by backlash.
“You… you…”
Summer looked at Lachlan with dilated pupils and a shocked expression on her face.
She didn’t expect that Lachlan had already discovered that she had put a spell on him!
And even more surprisingly, he easily destroyed the insect?
In other words, this bastard had been deceiving her all along!!
Lachlan looked at this woman with dangerous glints in his eyes.
“Next, I have some questions for you! I hope you can cooperate and answer me honestly!”
At this point, Lachlan finally stopped pretending to be nice to her!
The most important purpose of acting with this woman before was to hope that she could really find out where his father was. However, now from Sierra’s mouth, Lachlan knew that his parents… had already passed away!
Therefore, the meaning of pretending to be nice to Summer was not significant anymore!
Summer’s beautiful eyes flickered for a few moments as she gritted her teeth and said, “What do you want to ask? Just say it!”
Lachlan nodded…
Just then, suddenly Summer rushed towards the door of the room wanting to escape!
However, Lachlan was prepared long ago and slapped towards Summer when he saw it coming!
A palm print made up of true energy shot out like substance, s lapping heavily on Summer’s back without warning!
Puff!
Summer immediately spat out blood and fell forward onto the ground, seriously injured by Lachlan’s slap.
During their first fight, Summer managed to escape from under Lachlan’s hands. But now, Lachlan had broken through into Uppecia realm. How could he let this woman run away?
In an instant, Lachlan threw Summer onto bed, pulled over one sheet covering up against the delicate body which made people excited.
Staring at him, she sneered, “Why don’t you dare look? Waste!”
Lachlan coldly snorted, “Stop talking nonsense or else I will let you taste what it’s like begging for life but not getting it.”
As he spoke, he took out a silver needle and pierced it into certain acupoints on Summer’s feet.Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
For awhile, Summer felt numb all over as if losing mobility.
A prickling sensation spread throughout Summer’s body, making her contort in discomfort. “Stop! Please stop!” she cried out.
“I’ll tell you anything you want to know,” Summer quickly added.
Lachlan smiled and removed the silver needle from her skin. He then asked, “So who are you exactly? And what is your purpose for searching for my father’s jade pendant?”
To be on the safe side, Lachlan still said the jade pendant was with his father.
“I am a member of the Willis family from the hidden realm of Yeginia! Specifically, I am a branch of the ancient Willis family…”
Summer hesitated for a moment before beginning to explain.
According to her, they, the Willis family, operated in secrecy as a branch of the ancient Willis family. Over the years, they had been tasked with investigating the whereabouts of Lachlan’s Grandpa and the “heirloom jade pendant.”
Summer, she said, was one of the individuals sent out for this investigation. Due to a fortuitous incident, she obtained information about Lachlan’s Grandpa’s final escape and the possibility that he might have settled in Edoland.
Initially, she planned to manipulate Liam’s family, who possessed some local influence, to help gather information. However, after Lachlan intervened in her schemes, she had no choice but to come to Edoland herself.
After hearing all this, Lachlan’s expression fluctuated. “A collateral branch of the ancient Willis family?” he mused.
“Yes,” Summer nodded firmly in response.
Lachlan narrowed his eyes at her next question, “And when you said my daughter was cursed last time we met… was that true?”
“Absolutely true! It was an ancient curse from our family line,” replied Summer confidently. “Your grandfather was a master of the ancient Willis family, so it has been passed down to your daughter!”
Lachlan snorted coldly and squinted his eyes. “So, what’s the method to lift the curse?”
Summer’s eyes flickered, hesitating for a moment before saying, “Actually… there’s only one way! The ancient Willis family has been guarding a dragon vein for generations. The only possibility to lift the curse is to have your daughter enter that dragon vein.”
