Chapter 670 - 108. Despicable Blood Stealer
After hearing Heidlin’s words, Emhardt, who was standing on Fisher’s shoulder, suddenly had an extremely abstract expression on his face that consisted merely of one eye and one mouth. One moment he turned to glance at the very captivating Heidlin, and the next he turned towards Fisher beside him, looking as if he was pondering something, seemingly very tempted by Heidlin’s proposal.
Emhardt gave him a look of disdain and flew over to perch on the windowsill early, to avoid being thrown out like the last time on Patulshen Island.
This time, he was determined not to leave!
"How about it, have you made up your mind, Mr. Fisher?"
Her finger, resting on Fisher’s chest, slowly moved upwards following the trace it slid on Fisher’s white shirt. An intangible flame spread incessantly, kindling the Five Internal Organs and Six Organs within Fisher in an instant, along with her enticing fragrance. Fisher held his breath, fearing that her scent entering his lungs would ignite his last line of defense—his heart.
He suddenly reached out to grasp her mischievous wrist and lifted it over Heidlin’s black hair, which was held up by a hair crown, drawing a circle and simultaneously turning her body towards the back,
"Ah!"
She bit her lip, letting out a surprised moan from deep in her throat, and was then pushed by the scalding Fisher all the way forward against the wall, unable to move any further. She twisted her head slightly from Fisher’s restraint, and with eyes like silk, she exhaled a hot breath against Fisher’s cheek, then with her other hand reached across her chest to grasp Fisher’s collar and pursed her lips in the direction of the door,
"Mr. Fisher, the door isn’t closed yet, is it?"
Fisher remained unmoved by her mixed signals of temptation, maintaining control over her, and suddenly turned his head towards the door, calmly speaking,
"Miss Valentina, you see..."
Heidlin’s seductive expression came to an abrupt halt, and the alluring pink receded from her face, turning into a panicked pallor. She twisted her head swiftly to look toward the door, but only saw two large bags of Magic Materials—it wasn’t the wheelchair-bound Valentina. This relieved Heidlin, yet also sparked a fierce irritation within her,
"Are you playing with me?"
"And aren’t you doing the same, Miss Heidlin?"
Fisher tightened his grip on her, causing her to wince in pain and collapse softly in front of him. Suddenly, he lifted his hand and extended a whip-like Fluid Sword from his sleeve, pulling back the two bags of Magic Materials by the door and then catching the door handle. With a light click, the room was truly sealed.
Sitting dumbstruck on the windowsill, Emhardt involuntarily turned to see if the window was open. If things went any further, he truly wouldn’t be able to watch. Thankfully, Fisher’s next move was to speak rather than to start nibbling on Heidlin’s neck and lips, or else he would really have to jump out of the window and escape,
"It seems that ever since I boarded the ship, you have been suspecting me with the utmost malice. What exactly is the reason? You seem to loathe my proximity to Miss Valentina. Since boarding, every glance you’ve thrown my way has been a trap. If I had acted against you then... no, even if I hadn’t acted, Miss Valentina would have received the news immediately, right?"
"The first trap didn’t catch me, and the second time you posed as a maid who had been serving Valentina for a long time, warning me of the difficulties of being with someone disabled like her, trying to make me stay away from her. I ignored your words. Now you pretend to have consented to my closeness with Valentina, even deliberately dressing up so beautifully, simply repeating the story of the first time..."
"Miss Heidlin, I just want to ask, what has Fisher Benavides done to make you distrust me so much that you have been targeting me ever since I boarded?"
Heidlin was momentarily stunned by Fisher’s words, then she let go of her tightly bitten lip and glared at Fisher, saying,
"Heh, rather than saying I don’t trust you, it’s more like I trust you too much. But it’s not your private life’s style that I trust; it’s your ability to take Valentina to the Frost Snow Phoenix Tree... You really surprised me. It hasn’t been a month since you boarded, and you’ve already gotten three Seals for Valentina. How could I let you... Ouch, that hurts..."
Emhardt immediately flew to Fisher’s shoulder, calling out to him,
"Wow, so this woman is a mole! The human heart is truly treacherous. I never guessed that the servant who serves wheelchair girl day and night is actually the biggest traitor in your team!"
"Pah, what wheelchair girl, you disrespectful, cube-headed, and extremely ugly wad of toilet paper, shut up!"
"Your mom, Paimon’s curses aren’t even as nasty as yours, you foul-mouthed witch!"
Fisher wordlessly tossed the assertive Emhardt onto the bed behind, to prevent the guy from getting so angry that he’d use his face to violently hit Heidlin. However, he didn’t believe that Heidlin had betrayed Valentina; she must have had other reasons for her actions. But on the surface, he continued with Emhardt’s words, taunting Heidlin,
