Chapter 1164
Evangeline knelt on the floor with both hands raised high, sniffling with snot and tracks of tears running down her face.
Ever since she’d been dragged back from that Butterfly Empress’s island, Davey had scolded her until her tears ran dry. He scolded her so thoroughly that her eyes got puffy from all the crying.
Someone with a true rebellious streak might’ve taken serious issue with being scolded so severely. After all, she’d been literally kidnapped and yet was still getting yelled at over eating delivery food. Even so, Evangeline just didn’t have the time or energy to rebel.
The main thing holding her back was the scale in front of her. After just a few days of engaging in her streaming habits, her weight had noticeably increased. In the middle of their scolding, Perserque, worried sick, had said to go on the scale and see for herself what she looked like after how she’d behaved.
Gaining weight wasn’t inherently a problem for the average human, of course. However, a change in an ancient dragon’s weight wasn’t such a simple matter. It was instead a warning sign of something more dangerous.
That day, Evangeline witnessed Perserque, her beloved mother, be angry like never before.
Her lazy mindset and the messed up daily routine had slowly begun to turn the body of Evangeline, who hadn’t even completed her growth yet, upside down.
One must understand that ancient dragons could eat ten whole fried chickens a day without gaining a single gram of weight. Yet, that unspoken law had been broken.
Rebellion aside, the fact that her eating habits had led to weight gain left her struck with sheer terror, leaving her no room to even think about rebelling.
There had been a real change, and it was observable. Only then did Evangeline begin to recognize that her body had changed slightly from before.
On the outside, she looked the same, but she couldn’t shake the feeling that her belly had started to stick out.
“Evangeline,” someone approached and called out, making her open her eyes wide and lift her head.
