Chapter 370: Chapter 369 : Shield

Cataleya looked at the strange soup in the bowl and then at her daughter who was standing politely in front of her, slightly leaning on her blue umbrella that was resting on the ground.

“Are you sure I am poisoned and this is the cure?” she asked.

“Ahh. Yes… It is called the Widows Vengeance. This unfilial daughter has already checked it with my master, it is true!” Tulip said as politely as possible .”It has absolutely no symptoms before activation, and we will only know if it is true after an esteemed mother drinks this…”

“Is this medicine bad for my health?” Cataleya frowned and asked.

“No… It is made of some very rare herbs, so if it was not helpful, it would only be beneficial,” Tulip said. “My master also attested to this!”

“Oh… And a guy just gave you this info for free?” Catalya asked again. Carefully stirring the purplish liquid in the bowl.

“As this unfilial daughter reported, he left it in a message. He seemed to belong to an organization that specializes in information collection!” she said.

“You already said that in your report… The question is why is he helping us…” Cataleya said casually. “You slept with him, didn’t you?”

“I would never….” Tulip paused as she quickly remembered what happened back in the moon dungeon, making her mother who was looking at her frown.

“YOU….” she was testing her daughter earlier, she would have never guessed that this was true.

“We only shared a sleeping bag… It was an accident…” Tulip quickly defended herself.

“HOW CAN SLEEPING WITH A MAN BE AN ACCIDENT!” Cataleya yelled and almost threw the bowl she held in her hand.

“He made me do it… My powers were locked, back then… I had no choice…” Tulip said, stuttering as she stepped back… “Nothing more happened... We just slept!” she quickly clarified.

“WHAT? DO YOU THINK I AM AN IDIOT?”

“It is true… I… I am still a virgin…” Tulip clarified with a blush.

“Oh… Is he gay?” Cataleya calmed down a little.

“Probably not… He is just a jerk… A crazy proud jerk who is so full of himself…” Tulip said, puffing her cheeks.

“Watch it with your language!” Cataleya scolded.

“Ah… Sorry…” Tulip quickly looked to the ground.

“Then… Do you know why he gave you this info about me?” Cataleya said.

“No… I guess he wants to befriend our family…”

“You just chose to believe him?”

“It would do no harm…” Tulip said. She had no idea why she believed him.

“Never trust a man… Didn’t I teach you that….” Cataleya said as she sighed.

“I don’t trust him… I just trust the info he provided…” Tulip defended herself.

“IT'S THE SAME!” Catalya said then sighed.

“Ahh… Did Esteemed Mother check the info about my Esteemed Sister?” Tulip asked nervously.

“It is true… Your damned father had found her… They plan to bring her back in a few months…” Catalya said. She planned to go there by that time.

“Oh…” Tulip nodded. She wanted to tell her mother that this proved that Vic’s info was reliable, but she chose not to say it.

Cataleya, who could easily read her stupid daughter’s thoughts, sighed.

“Fine…” she said as she gulped the liquid in the bowl in one sip. If her daughter was more knowledgeable she would have realized that her mother’s movements were those of an experienced drinker.

It tasted normal… Just a little bitter, but it was not bad.

As soon as Catalya put the bowl down and carefully wiped her lips using a silk handkerchief she began to feel it. The power of the soup began to fill her body then, in her womb, something was moving.

“Oh….”
Without waiting for it, she jumped and ran to the toilet…

Tulip watched respectfully as her Esteemed mother left. She was suppressing her laugh.

Then she heard it… A scream full of horror.

Running behind her mother she saw her mother who fell on the blue-colored carpet in the corridor and was in pain.

Below Cataleya, a 10-foot-long disgusting millipede was crawled from under the skirt. It seemed to be in pain too as it wiggled aimlessly.

Without thinking, Tulip immediately used her umbrella to crash its head into a puddle of green liquid. Then she heard the familiar ping.
