Puzzled, I stood up to open the door, only to find that it was Adela standing outside. I breathed a sigh of relief.
But at the same time, I was confused as to why she would visit us at this time.
Just as I opened my mouth to greet her, Adela suddenly slapped me across the face.
"You fucking bitch! Go to hell!"
As I was too stunned to react, Adela seized the opportunity to pounce on me, yanking at my hair like a madwoman.
This pissed me off. Although I was virtually powerless in this palace, nobody dared to hit me. How dare this bitch slap me?
I quickly turned the tables, straddled her, and slapped her on the face.
Over the past few years, I had done some graft in this palace, and I was much stronger than this she-wolf. Soon, Adela's face was swollen because of my slaps.
"Bitch, hit me again and I'll kill you!" Adela struggled hard and managed to kick me in the belly. While I winced in pain, she kicked me a few more times until I let go of her.
Adela immediately got up from the floor, pointed a trembling finger at me, and spat, "Did you poison me? I'm infertile because of you!"
I was shocked, but I tried to keep a calm expression. How'd she find out about the poison?
"Say something, bitch! Was it you?" Adela, whose face was red and swollen from my slaps, was furious.
"I don't know what you're talking about. Who told you that you were poisoned?" I looked at her coldly, unwilling to give myself away. Perhaps this idiot was provoked by someone, so she came here just to stir up trouble.
But it didn't matter even if she knew the truth. Anyway, she couldn't do anything to me. We had been in the same boat for a long time now.
