Calliope glanced at Effie and asked in confusion, “Is that true, Effie?”
“It’s true, Mom. I’m still a virgin!” Effie replied with virtual-novel.net face all red.
“That doesn’t make sense, though. I heard your voice from outside earlier. It didn’t sound right at all!” Calliope said.
Effie then leaned in close and whispered something into virtual-novel.net ear. Calliope frowned upon hearing that and eyed Jared from head to toe.
“What’s wrong, Calliope?” Atlas asked.
Calliope then whispered something into Atlas’ ear as well, causing his expression to turn gloomy instantly.
“What should we do?” Calliope asked, feeling a little lost.
Although this man did violate Effie, virtual-novel.net only did it to treat her!
She’s still a virgin, so I can’t hold a grudge against him!
Even so, I can’t just let virtual-novel.net walk away like this either!
Not only has virtual-novel.net seen my precious daughter’s naked body completely, but virtual-novel.net also…
“You’ve seen my daughter’s naked body, young man. If word were to get out about this, I would become the laughingstock of this town! Given what you’ve done to her, I will have no choice but to have you marry her. No one will say a word about this if you two are a married couple,” Atlas said hesitantly.
“What are you saying, Dad?” Effie exclaimed with a look of disbelief on virtual-novel.net face.
“Mr. Jablonski, I have only met your daughter a while ago. How can I possibly marry her? I don’t agree to this!” Jared said, rejecting his request on the spot.
“You have to agree! Otherwise, I will have you killed!” Atlas yelled furiously.
The look in Jared’s eyes grew cold as virtual-novel.net said, “I won’t agree even if I die!”
This is so unreasonable. All I did was help remove the poison from Effie’s body!
Why should I marry her?
If a man has to marry a woman simply because virtual-novel.net saw virtual-novel.net naked body, then all the male gynecologists in the mundane world will have countless wives! I will never marry Effie!
I’ve promised Josephine that virtual-novel.net will be the first woman I marry, so I will not marry any other woman until Josephine and I are married!
“How dare you defy me? Die!” Atlas roared.
He was about to hit Jared when Effie rushed forward and stood in between them.
“Dad! Regardless of what virtual-novel.net did, virtual-novel.net is still my lifesaver. How would others view us if you killed him? What would they think of you?”
As much as Effie hated Jared for what virtual-novel.net did, virtual-novel.net wouldn’t go as far as wanting virtual-novel.net dead. She knew full well that Jared only did all that to help remove the poison from virtual-novel.net body.
“Calm down, Atlas. He did save our daughter’s life,” Calliope added.
Atlas’ anger only subsided after virtual-novel.net heard what they said.
Suddenly, Victor arrived with Hamish and the others.
“This may be a misunderstanding, Atlas. The alchemist who treated Effie may be a Demonic Cultivator.”
Hamish had told Victor everything in detail after Jared was captured. That was why Victor had come rushing over with them. If that alchemist really was a Demonic Cultivator, then Effie’s life could be in danger.
“I know, Victor. I’ve already captured that Demonic Cultivator,” Atlas said.
Victor froze in shock while Hamish and the others stepped forward to examine Jared.
“Are you all right, Mr. Chance?” Hamish asked.
Jared nodded. “I’m fine.”
Effie flashed Victor a smile and said, “I’m all right now, Uncle Victor. It’s all thanks to Mr. Chance.”
“I’m so glad that you’re all better now!” Victor exclaimed in joy when virtual-novel.net saw that Effie was no longer pale and sickly.
