Chapter 3787 Easy Prey

The huge boost in power came as a pleasant surprise for Gloria as it exceeded her expectations. As Primo went back to sleep, Gloria went looking for Heptino.

Judging from his unusual behavior last night, I bet he must be dying to see me right now! With that in mind, Gloria packed some stew and a couple of side dishes into a lunchbox and brought it over to Heptino’s room.

The room door was left ajar, and she could hear him snoring from outside. Gloria deliberately raised her voice a little as she exclaimed, “What? It’s almost noon, for goodness’ sake! Why is he still asleep?”

Sure enough, the snoring stopped instantly. Heptino then opened the room door and stepped out seconds later. “Gloria?”

The weary look on his pale face was instantly replaced with joy and excitement when he saw her. It was exactly as Gloria had predicted. Heptino had been drinking all night since the wedding ended and had passed out drunk in his room.

He felt like his world was falling apart after the woman he loved was taken from him. Seeing Gloria outside his door reignited the flames of hope which lit up the darkness in his heart.

“Is it really you, Gloria?” Heptino asked while rubbing his eyes in disbelief.

Gloria walked up to him and gave him a light smack on the forehead. “What’s gotten into you, Heptino? You reek of alcohol! Go brush your teeth and eat something before you ruin your stomach!”
