The One I Should've Married (Stella and Sebastian) novel Chapter 180

"W-what is that?"

Seeing the glass in Asher's hand, Xander instinctively scrambled backward, pure terror painted across her face.

Stella casually admired her flawless manicure. "I'm dying to know what it is myself, so you get to be the test subject."

Whatever Beatrice had gotten from Malakai was guaranteed to be pure evil.

Stella had originally planned to have Asher track Xander down and force-feed it to her, but the idiot had conveniently delivered herself to their doorstep.

"No, please, no!"

Xander shook her head frantically in horror.

Just as she tried to scramble up from the floor and bolt for the door, two bodyguards slammed her back down.

Xander thrashed wildly. "Ah, no, no! Let me go! Get off me..."

Asher clamped a brutal hand around her jaw.

In that instant, Xander fought back like a cornered animal.

But her pathetic strength was nothing against them. Tears of pure panic streamed down her face. "Let go! I won't drink it! I don't want it!"

Asher didn't waste a single word. He forcefully poured the tainted water down her throat...

"Cough, cough... no, please! *Gulp*, ugh~"

The entire glass, laced with the vile substance, was forced down Xander's throat.

As Asher released her jaw, the bodyguards let go of her arms.

Xander collapsed onto the floor, frantically shoving her fingers down her throat, desperately trying to trigger her gag reflex.

But the liquid burned like fire in her stomach and refused to come back up.

Feeling as if she were dying, Xander gasped, "What the hell did you just make me drink?"

Watching her pathetic state, Stella let out a dark chuckle. "Don't worry, it won't kill you."

"At worst, it'll just make you fall madly in love with someone you really shouldn't!"

This concoction was truly wicked.

Three years ago, Beatrice had tricked Stella into drinking this exact poison, shattering her spirit and binding her in marriage to a useless coward like Julian.

So what would happen to Xander after drinking it? Stella was incredibly eager to find out who she would fall for...!

"W-what do you mean?"

What did she mean by falling for someone she shouldn't?

What was she talking about?

Stella had no interest in wasting any more words on her. She shot Asher a look.

Asher nodded and gestured to the bodyguards. "Take her away!"

Without hesitation, the two men hauled Xander up by her arms and dragged her out. Xander hadn't even gotten a straight answer.

"Stella, what the hell did you feed me? You..."

Her voice grew fainter as she was dragged down the hall.

Eventually, there was complete silence.

Asher looked at Stella and asked, "Is that stuff really that wicked?"

Stella smirked.
