Chapter 368
The Willis family had always doted on their daughter. When they heard that Ophelia was so shameless and overbearing, they were furious. They told Lydia not to worry; the Lyons family was not a good family to begin with. It was no problem to add insult to injury. The Willis family was not to be trifled with. Even if the Hill family intervened, this matter would not end. The video of their daughter was released, and she was rumored to be a shut-in. If she lost face, the Willis family would lose face. They even comforted Lydia and told her to go all out against Ophelia. They supported her. After hanging up, Lydia felt much better.
Previously, she had thought that her parents and brother no longer doted on her. That was why she had refused to help them. Her brother even asked her to visit the psychiatric department. From the looks of it, it wasn’t that they didn’t want to help, but it depended on what it was. A family that could raise a crazy woman like Aileen Lyons was definitely not a good one. Moreover, so many problems had been exposed; they were all rotten to the core.
She then looked at Elliot and said, “Hubby, do you want to work with my family to suppress the Lyons family?” This time, she felt that he probably wouldn’t object to her again. Elliot nodded and said, “Even if you didn’t tell me, I would have done the same.” Ophelia tried to sow discord between his wife and daughter and even got a voodoo warlock to deal with them. She had completely crossed him. If he didn’t retaliate, he wouldn’t feel he deserved to be the chairman of Jenkins Group.
Lydia was delighted. “Okay. I’ll make that bitch suffer.” After the Lyons family was dealt with, she would find someone to instigate the Lyons family to cause trouble for Ophelia. At that time, the people in their circle would laugh at Ophelia every day.
After Elliot arranged for the private plane, no matter how he thought about it, he felt uneasy. He prepared to go to the Horoscope Association and ask two horoscope masters to escort them back to Solara City. As long as there was money, there was no problem. However, before he could go to the Horoscope Association, Carl Jenkins called him. He said that the Horoscope Association had informed him that they had investigated Sienna’s matter and asked him to go over. Carl was in Solara City. He didn’t want to care about this matter anymore, so he let Elliot go. Elliot told Lydia to go back to the hotel to rest while he went to the Horoscope Association. Lydia thought of the counterattack plan and returned to the hotel in a good mood.
In the stairwell, she met a smiling, chubby foreign man. When she went out, she accidentally bumped into the other party. The other party apologized profusely, so she didn’t pay much attention to it. She rested in her room for a while. Then, she went to the washroom to remove her makeup. When she lowered her head to wash her face with water, she closed her eyes and did not notice a white sesame seed fall from her body into the water. Then, the worm landed on her face, along with the water. It quickly burrowed into her nose.
At this moment, the voodoo warlock had already returned to the inn. He held a mannequin with a phonograph of Eptia and began to cast the spell. In order not to be exposed so quickly, he would activate the venomous parasite worms in Lydia’s body three days later. In Oriar, other than the courtyard protected by the Horoscope Association, Raylan would be able to discover anyone who tried to use unnatural forces. This was an ability he honed after being bound by Onar.
At this moment, he was having dinner with Phoebe. They were chatting about metaphysics. After sensing it, he looked at her and said, “That voodoo warlock has already successfully put a venomous parasite on Lydia. According to his movements, Lydia won’t act up until three days later.” He asked, “Are you going to do something about it?” After all, Lydia was Phoebe’s biological mother. He wasn’t sure if she would care if Lydia was harmed.
Phoebe shook her head. “I don’t care. I told her before that she would be in trouble if she mixed up with Ophelia. From the looks of it, even if she didn’t fall for it this time, there will be a next time. Besides, I wanted to let her have a taste of that. I wouldn’t care. It’s not like she’ll die anyway. The damage is limited to nothing.” After Lydia was harmed, Phoebe wanted to see how she would react.
A smile appeared on Raylan’s face. “They might very well come to you to help solve the venomous parasite.” Phoebe said, “I won’t care.” Lydia’s venomous parasite didn’t affect the overall situation, so she wouldn’t interfere. She felt that it was fine as long as Lydia didn’t die. If Lydia insisted on getting involved with Ophelia, there would be a bad outcome.
Raylan smiled and said, “That’s fine, too. You two aren’t fated to be a family to begin with.” He admired Phoebe’s methods even more. If it were him, he wouldn’t care. Then, his mind stirred. “Elliot has come to Oriar.” Phoebe smiled and said, “He should be here to hire some horoscope masters to accompany them back to Solara City.” With Elliot’s personality, he knew that he would want security if he was targeted by a voodoo warlock.
Raylan continued to sense. After a moment, he smiled and said, “You’re only half right.” Phoebe thought about it. “Has the Horoscope Association come to a conclusion about the investigation of Sienna?” Raylan gave her a look of approval. “You are so smart.” Phoebe smiled and asked, “What’s the result? Who took the blame for Sienna?”
From the looks of it, the person behind Sienna must have decided to protect her. Therefore, the only way to get Sienna off the hook was to find a scapegoat. Raylan replied, “It’s Damon Newton. He is quite involved with the Jenkins family.” Phoebe looked as if she had expected it. “It’s really Damon Newton. He deserved it.” They were all on the same side. It was not wrong for him to be pushed out as a scapegoat. She had already guessed that the person behind this would push Damon to take the blame.
They should have discovered that Elliot suspected Damon of having a problem. This time, not only could he take the blame, but he could also solve the problem directly. She asked, “What about Sienna?” Raylan said, “Their excuse is that Damon cast a bewitching spell on Sienna and controlled her. That’s why Sienna did everything. Actually, Damon was the mastermind.”
Phoebe smiled sarcastically. “In that case, Sienna will go from the perpetrator to the victim. The person behind this is really shameless. And from the looks of it, they don’t seem to be afraid of exposing the problem with the Horoscope Association. Not to mention her, even the Jenkins family would not believe such a thing.”
