Slap!
Goliry could not stand the embarrassment and slapped Darryl with her right hand while he was mesmerized. "Get lost, you b*stard!"
Goliry shrieked as she struggled to free herself from Darryl's grasp, and her eyes flashed with rage.
Even though she did not know what had happened, she thought of herself as highly righteous and pure. How could she bear it when she saw Darryl holding her so tightly?
'F*ck!'
Darryl was speechless as he held his hand. "I just saved your life, Fairy. How can you have hit me without discovering the truth? I am sure you are aware that Andres poisoned you just now, right?
"After I've led Andres away, I returned to look for you, and that's when the poison in your body started to manifest. I had no choice but to take you to the pool to calm you down.
"If it were not for me, you'd be experiencing a psychotic break already."
Darryl could not help but admire Goliry's alluring curves as he spoke.
'Right…'
Goliry frowned and remained silent as she reflected on what had occurred.
'Darryl's right. Andres poisoned me. He was trying to defile me, but at the critical moment, Darryl appeared and led that b*stard away…'
'But why can't I recall what happened after that and how did I end up in the pool?'
Goliry sighed with relief as she pondered her thoughts and asked, "Did you really save my life? Why did you bring me here? How did you cure me from the poison?"
Goliry was skeptical for a brief moment.
Previously, she had attempted to expel the drug efficacy using her internal energy, but the more she activated her internal energy, the faster the drugs manifested.
'This...'
After hearing Goliry's series of questions, Darryl scratched his head and said, "I carried you here. You looked like you were having a psychotic break. So, I could only submerge you in the pool.
"Thankfully, the pool water is freezing cold, and so, you've woken up."
Darryl spoke calmly as if he were discussing something mundane. He also made no mention of him injecting divine power into Goliry's body.
