“But every morning, two of their people always go out to build houses, and the rest go out with that female.
“That leaves the house empty and makes it easier for us to move.”
“So what exactly are you planning?” Julien asked.
Sixto’s lips curled into a cold smile.
“When the house is empty, we’ll poison the rice bin.
“That female is pregnant, right? If she eats it, she’ll lose the baby-she might even die.
“That’s what happens when you don’t listen to Ms. Jewel. She needs to be taught a lesson.”
Just then, the smug Sixto suddenly felt a chill run down his back. He glanced over and saw Julien with his head lowered.
Julien’s fists clenched so tight he wanted to skin this man alive, but when he looked up again, was smiling.
“Fine. Leave the poisoning to me.”
He held out his hand. Sixto was more than happy to let someone else take the risk, so he handed over a small animal-skin pouch and hurried off.
“This is your job now. If you mess it up, Ms. Jewel won’t forgive you!”
He rubbed his still-sore head and wandered off to slack around somewhere.
It was still early. Julien took the powder to Rosalie, and she used her system to analyze it, quickly identifying the poison.
She let out a cold laugh. Jewel really had no patience-trying to poison her so soon. This poison was powerful but slow-acting.
If Rosalie ate the poisoned rice, the poison would kick in after a few hours. If she ate enough, she’d not only lose the baby-her own life would be in danger too. It was a vicious plan.
Rosalie clenched the colorless, tasteless powder in her fist. So they liked poison? She would let them have a taste of their own medicine.
She whispered a few words in Julien’s ear. He nodded before going back to report.
