Chapter 462
Just as Theo was about to pounce on Clara, she suddenly kicked him, sending him flying.
Theo landed face-first on the ground as he was caught off guard.
"Clara, are you crazy?" Theo shouted angrily.
"Theo, do you think I'm stupid? You want to replace yourself with that lackey in our room on our wedding night? How ridiculous!" Clara retorted, equally furious.
"Clara, I know it's absurd, but there's no other way," Theo said helplessly.
Clara sneered. "Even if I give up my status, do you think that lackey would be content to be a living cuckold? If he tells my father or spreads rumors, not only will my reputation be ruined, but our entire Strauss family will be shamed."
"He wouldn't dare. I have a poison that can make life unbearable without regular antidotes. I'll beat him up and force him to take the poison. Then, he'll have no choice but to obey," Theo replied.
"Fine. I'll trust you this once. But if you deceive me, I won't let you off," Clara warned.
"I would never lie to you. Let me show you how much I care," Theo said, pushing Clara to the ground and pouncing on her again. But Clara rolled away, leaving Theo frustrated.
"Clara, what do you mean by this?" Theo asked in exasperation.
Clara smiled, "Why are you in such a hurry? You'll have your chance in our room. Once everything goes smoothly, you can do whatever you want then."
"But I'm feeling really uncomfortable now. How about you help me out a bit, like..." Theo's gaze lingered on her red, alluring lips. His blood boiled with desire, and his eyes burned with lust.
Theo tried to get closer, but Clara kicked him away again. "Get lost!"
Clara wasn't going to let him have his way easily. If he reneged after getting what he wanted, she would have no
recourse.
After kicking him away, she quickly left.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
"You little minx, just you wait until your wedding night. I'll make you beg for mercy," Theo muttered as he left. He needed to prepare this plan thoroughly. While he had a plan, sneaking into their wedding room on the wedding night wouldn't be easy. He needed to bribe a couple of insiders.
Sebastian was unaware of the sinister plan being hatched by the treacherous couple. At that moment, he was in a guest room of the Strauss residence, refining the Spirit Herb.
The herb's effects were indeed as powerful as the legends claimed. He could feel his mental prowess increasing at an astonishing rate.
His divine sense expanded further and further.
Initially, when he broke through to the Divine Realm, his divine sense covered a radius of about 100 feet.
After reaching the middle-stage divine grandmaster, it extended to about 170 feet. Now, it had surpassed 200 feet and continued to grow.
By the time he fully absorbed the Spirit Herb's last trace of energy, his divine sense covered an astounding radius of around 270 feet.
Though divine sense mainly served as an auxiliary tool in combat, it was invaluable for predicting enemy moves and identifying weaknesses.
With his enhanced mental prowess, breakthroughs in his cultivation would come more easily, and he might reach the late-stage divine grandmaster stage soon.
However, Sebastian wasn't pleased because his memory hadn't returned. He only gained a few more fragmented memories.
He quickly dismissed his disappointment, knowing that with the increasing number of memory fragments, regaining his full memory was only a matter of time or finding the right trigger.
He believed that day wasn't far off.
While the Strauss family busied themselves with wedding preparations, significant events were unfolding outside.
