Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 4109

"Oliver!" Leia's brows furrowed. "Why do you look so pleased?"

At the question, Oliver did not bother to hide the truth anymore. A sinister smile crept over his face. "For how steadfast and careful you are, you still slipped up. I've got some news for you—the Black Tortoise Soul Restoration Pill you just took was infused with Essence of Delusion!

"I don't know if you were aware, but the Black Tortoise Soul Restoration Pill loses a great deal of its effects once it comes into contact with Essence of Delusion."

What? The Essence of Delusion?

Leia's expression dropped immediately. The strength that was supposed to restore in her body did not return at all. Instead, heat surged through her.

Her head began to spin, morphing her vision.

That was one of the effects of the Essence of Delusion.

Leia had never consumed Essence of Delusion before, but she knew enough to be able to tell what it would do to a person.

"Oliver, you—"

Leia was furious, and her eyes were blazing. She roared at Oliver, "Why would you do that?"

"Why?"

Oliver smiled, staring intently at Leia as his gaze grew sinister. "Why? Because I like you! I like you so much that I am willing to do anything for you, but you only had eyes for that Darryl Darby.

"I'll tell you now that I have no plans on saving him. I did not want to do that, Leia, but you left me no choice with the way you treated me before."

"You—"

Leia was about to go blind with fury. She opened her mouth to retaliate. Yet, at the first word, the heat coursing through her body seemed to rise violently.

Leia bit her tongue, trying to clear her head. She glowered at Oliver. "My father won't forgive you for this, Oliver!"
