Olivia looked at Wendy. "What happened?"
"Jacqueline asked someone to cast a Lifebond Curse on you. The curse settled in you within 24 hours, and now, your life is bound with hers. From now onward, you'll share the pain. But I didn't know that you'd feel the pain so vividly. The witch is powerful," Wendy recounted.
At this moment, Wendy thought it was so fortunate that she didn't get ahead of herself by breaking the curse for Olivia. This wasn't any ordinary curse; it was a refined one.
Just like how science would improve every day, the abandoned minority curses had been cast to oblivion. Only a few people still sustained the practice—the powerful witches.
Jacqueline rested against the rim of the bathtub with an expression of a winner. "I'm glad you know. It's not only our lives; she can feel anything that I do. If you want her to suffer with me, you're welcome to torture me."
Olivia did feel unwell when she woke up. She brushed it off as soreness from the long hours of sleep. It turned out that the reason was Jacqueline.
Thinking back, the dull sense of pain Olivia felt all over her body was probably due to Jacuqeline's old injuries.
Leia, who thought that Jacqueline was acting weird, finally wrapped her head around the situation. Guilt gripped Leia's heart when she thought of her actions that had hurt Olivia. "I'm sorry."
She had already owed Olivia way too much to begin with. The reason Leia didn't opt for suicide was because she wanted to atone for her sins.
Although it was unintentional, the guilt was stifling.
Leia had done so many cruel things to Olivia. They weren't on good terms, and Olivia didn't have a reason to forgive her. In the end, Olivia chose to ignore Leia's apology.
Olivia looked at Jacqueline. "Let's talk after you shower."
