“It has everything to do with the south-facing attribute, which is light,” Emmeline responded. on Waylon’s behalf.
“The willow tree branch must face south because eyes require light, and facing south provides that light element.”
“I see.”
Abel felt like he learned something new, and he went with Benjamin to fetch the willow tree branches.
Waylon asked Emmeline, “Who poisoned you with Wraith Petal?”
Emmeline replied, “I don’t know. I was like this when I woke up.”
She considered it while cocking her head. She said, “It must be Anthony. He doesn’t want me to see his face.”
Waylon was doubtful. He asked, “The Imperial Palace’s Palace Lord? How would he learn about Wraith Petal?”
Emmeline answered, “How would I know? And there’s vampire dust, which is another poison. from our clan.”
Waylon remarked, “I am aware of vampire dust. Five years ago, Anthony stole that formula from my computer, but Wraith Petal doesn’t make sense.
Emmeline wondered, “So you’re saying there’s someone behind him? And this person is aware of the affairs of our clan.”
Waylon furrowed his brow and responded, “It’s really strange. Later, I’m going to talk with. my father about this.”
“Hey, don’t tell Master Robert I’m in trouble, or none of us will live peacefully,” Emmeline reminded, sticking out her tongue.
“You’re actually afraid of him?”
Waylon tapped Emmeline’s forehead, and he urged, “You need to be more thoughtful in the future. When will you stop acting impulsively?”
“I know!”
Emmeline hugged Waylon’s arm and acted coquettishly, saying, “Waylon, stop lecturing me. You’re giving me a headache!”
Waylon scratched her head and teased, “You’re afraid of me? Your mouth is the only thing that would admit defeat. Next time, you’ll be up to your old tricks again!”
“Hey, don’t forget the problem with my head!”
Emmeline remembered the bald scar on the back of her head as he scratched it. She took Waylon’s hand to touch it, and she grumbled, “My hair is gone. Look at me; I must look hideous.”
