Seeing Hardy call her, Talitha sneered. Sure enough, he would only listen to her if he felt threatened. After she picked up the phone, she asked him angrily, “What’s wrong with you? Why have you been ignoring my calls and texts?”
Hardy suppressed his anger, “I was busy, I have a lot of things to deal with in the company, and I barely have time for anything else!”
His rude attitude made her blood boil.
Raymond said that he saw Hardy hooking up with a beautiful woman in a hotel yesterday, but Hardy claimed that he barely had time for anything else. It was clear that she had no importance in his life.
She felt embarrassed, but she knew that she had chosen this path herself, so she sneered.
“Hardy, tell me what you have on your mind, and I won’t be clingy towards you anymore. After all, we haven’t got married yet. Even if we do, we can still divorce after that, right? I have my dignity too. If you don’t like me and our child, just tell me directly and I promise I won’t disturb you!”
Hardy thought that she was despicable. If she was willing to let him go so easily, she would not have plotted against him to begin with. If she didn’t blackmail him, he wouldn’t even bother to waste his energy to go along with her. He tried to sound indifferent, “What are you talking about?”
Talitha noticed that he did not even try to comfort her, so she threatened him immediately, “Hardy, I know you don’t like me, and I wanted to give you up too, but it was you who took the initiative to ask for peace and accepted me. Have you forgotten all of this?”
Her tone carried a hint of threat that reminded him of the embarrassing things that he had experienced before.
He was about to explode with furiousness. What a bitch!
He wanted to strangle her for being shady towards him, but the video of the old woman hitting him with a small whip was in her hands, so he could not do anything.
He forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and eased his tone, “Talitha, I’ve been really busy recently, and I realized that I haven’t been paying enough attention to you. How about we have dinner together tonight?”
“Sure. Since you’re busy with work, I’ll pick a restaurant.” Talitha’s task was completed after he promised to meet her for dinner at night, so she did not insist on talking any longer and hung up the phone.
Although he promised to meet her, she was still uncertain. She was strongly aware that he did not like her, but since she had come so far, she could not back down anymore.
Talitha knew that her only hope now was to rely on the vermin to control Hardy. But would it really work?
She asked Raelyn worriedly, “Mom, I’m anxious right now. Are you sure that the vermin will control Hardy?”
“Yes. As long as you let him eat it, everything will be under your control. But you have to prepare in advance and be the first to reach your meeting place.” Raelyn reminded, “You are not as calm as your sister, so I’m worried for you. Do you want me to help you?”
Talitha didn’t like to hear this. What did it mean that she was not as calm as Natasya? Was her sister that incredible?
If so, why did she screw up on the plan against William last time? Talitha was unhappy and immediately refused, “I can do it myself.”
“Really?” Raelyn asked in disbelief.
“Of course, I’m going to have dinner with Hardy. Why should you be there? If Hardy knew about it, he would definitely find it suspicious. It’s not good to alert the enemy, so I’ll go by myself.”
“Fine, be careful though. When the time comes, prepare fruit juice for Hardy and mix the vermin into the juice for him to drink.”
Talitha nodded and said, “I see. I’ll do the preparations now.”
When William returned to Wolf Group, Valeria and greeted him with a worried face. “Dear, you’re finally back! Are you okay?”
“I’m alright. Silas already changed the medicine beforehand, so I didn’t eat what she prepared. Nothing will happen.”
She sighed in relief and said, “What did she say to you? Did she seduce you to hook up with her?”
He sat down with a smile on his face and said, “No. She wouldn’t dare to with her looks right now.”
“Her main purpose today was to drug me, so I deliberately told her that I was going to marry you, and she was very angry but suppressed everything for her plan to work. She should be very happy right now. After all, I had swallowed the blood vermin right in front of her.”
“So now, she must be very proud, right? She must be discussing with Raelyn and Devon about how to control you in the future. Damn! Hahaha. Should we keep up with her act for a little while?” Knowing that William was fine, Valeria felt relieved and started to play along.
“I don’t have time for that. It’s disgusting!” He refused.
“Hubby, just play along with them for once. I really want to see their exasperated looks from success to failure. It will be interesting to watch.”
He smiled and shook his head, “Aren’t you jealous? You’re not angry anymore? Weren’t you angry with me earlier? You forgot about it so quickly! Are you that interested in what happens later?”
“The past is in the past. Don’t you know that women are born fickle?” She retorted.
He reached out to brush the tip of her nose. “We should focus on Talitha and Hardy instead. I’m not an actor, so I do not intend to play along with Natasya’s schemes.”
“Hardy, Talitha, and Natasya in one situation?” Valeria found the focus, “Honey, do you want them to fight over a man?”
“You’re smart!” He praised her with a smile.
“No, how is that possible? Natasya will never take a fancy to Hardy. Her target is you! It’s not realistic for her to go for Hardy!”
“It can be realistic with the blood vermin. Natasya’s whole family plotted against me like that, so I have to repay it to them. It’s not enough for me to see through their plans, so I have to give them a big gift.”
“So you are going to do something to the blood vermin?” Valeria still felt that it was impossible, “Husband, what are you planning to do with it?”
“Of course I’m going to mix Natasya and Talitha’s vermins into the same drink for Hardy. When he drinks the two sisters’ blood vermin, he would naturally be attached to both of them. Hahaha! When the time comes, he’ll be obedient towards both of them. Doesn’t that sound interesting? And the love triangle will play out.”
After saying that, William burst into laughter, “Talitha alone is already a handful. I wonder how Hardy is going to deal with the two sisters by himself!”
Valeria was enlightened, “Honey, that is such a great idea! How did you think of that?”
