Kaylee knew something was wrong after arriving at her apartment.
When Mu Ning kicked her and her grandmother out, both of them filed a complaint against Liam. They even discussed Mu Ning's disgusting behavior and complained to Mu Ning's mother-in-law in the hopes that she would teach Mu Ning a lesson.
Only after receiving a promise did they leave.
She had already thought of what more rumors to spread about Mu Ning when her legs turned weak.
Her hands started to twitch uncontrollably, her body slowly started to turn numb, and her vision blurred.
The next second, Kaylee lost her consciousness. When she opened her eyes again, she was lying on the floor helplessly, not being able to move at all!
"System! System! What is going on with me?"
[Analysing host's body condition...Analysis completed! The host has been paralyzed!]
"What the hell? Paralyzed? How can I be? Cure me! I can't live like that!" Kaylee shouted in her heart.
[Trying... Failed to cure the diseases! Insufficient energy!]
"What? No! Please do something!" Kaylee's heart was beating with fear.
[Host, all the energy has been used to bind with you. Until and unless the host completes any task... I am helpless too!]
"F*ck you!" Kaylee's eyes watered, and she desperately tried to think of a way out. A solution appeared in her mind soon, and she shouted, "I want to spread a rumor about myself that my body can never get sick!"``
[Using the slot to spread the rumor... please type out the message and spread it!]
"Type? How am I supposed to type? I am paralyzed!" Kaylee's heart was brimming with resentment.
This system, while binding, presented itself like some omnipotent system, and now it was acting like some kind of baby!
[Not a possible host! The primary condition to spread the rumor is to type it out and spread it on your own.]
"Ugghh!" Kaylee screamed, but it was of no use.
"Can you at least contact my parents or a close one?" Kaylee almost begged at this point.
[Sorry, host, due to insufficient energy...]
"Shut up! Shut up! Insufficient energy! Insufficient energy! "That's all you have left to say? " she asked in a frustrated voice. "I will die, okay? So take a loan or use any magical power you have to just call someone who can help me!"
[Sory host, I can't.]
Kaylee wanted to close her eyes in despair. She could only pray for her mother to check on her; otherwise, she might die because of not receiving proper medical care.
'Why did I even get paralyzed in the first place... wait! It's because of that b*tch's beating! Mu Ning, you slut! You demon! Just you wait! Once I recover, I will spread such vicious rumors that death will become a luxury for you!
.............
Liam massaged his head after hanging up the call with Kaylee and Lao Jia.
'That woman... she can't live without causing trouble for me!'
A glint flashed in his mind as he recalled the sweet yet shy junior who used to follow him.
Even when he was indifferent to the world around him, that junior had broken down the walls around his heart.
However... Liam closed his eyes.
'Time to divorce her. She is like a ticking bomb that couldn't be kept near.'
He dialed his secretary's number, and once the call was connected, he said in a calm voice, "Clear up the schedule for next month's 15th; I will visit the mansion."
"Are you going to finally divorce that b*tch?" A carefree voice completely devoid of any professionalness echoed from the other end.
Liam's brows furrowed as he said, "Stop that. Don't disrespect her."
"Aww! Still got protectiveness for her? Do you still love her or what? I never knew you could still have feelings for your dear rapist."
Liam's indifferent voice sounded, "Xing Li, I am warning you; until she is connected to me, I will not let her be disrespected."
With that, he hung up.
It wasn't that he was protective of Mu Ning; rather, he was concerned about her well-being.
'Hey, why waste so much time on a woman who will be gone soon? And love?'
Mu Ning isn't worth it.
..........
Mu Ning sneezed four times and murmured, "Someone must be badmouthing me, huh? It must be that bastard Kaylee."
[Host, she must have realized by now that she couldn't use the system at all! Haha! Host, you are a genius to come up with such a way to defeat her!]
"Hm? What more can you expect from an ace?" Mu Ning snorted proudly.
[But the pills' effect will wear off in half a year, then...]
