Chapter 422: Side Effects

Location- Sky Blossom City, Guild Association Mall, Warehouse no. 234

*Slap* *Slap*

“Wake up, little girl. How am I supposed to answer to your parents if you die right in front of me?” Anna, who was quietly eavesdropping on the conversation of Susan and Corey, came to help Susan when she saw her panic as Corey entered a trance-like state.

*front hand Slap* * Backhand Slap* *front hand slap*…

“Wake up, Corey! Wake up!” Anna panicked as she felt an eerie aura emitting from Corey and enveloping her body. It was as if death itself was hugging Corey. Without knowing the cause of Corey’s condition. Anna did not know how to treat Corey even though she had a bunch of medicine occupation-based cards. Therefore she chose the stone age method to wake Corey from her trance-like state, loud and resounding slaps.

“Princess, if you slap her any harder. We might have to hold a funeral for the girl. Please let this old man try.” Lorenzo, who had returned to the warehouse to talk with Anna about the ambush on his sister-in-law seeing Anna slapping Corey to wake her up from her trance, feared that instead of waking up Corey, Anna might kill her with her slaps.

“Be my guest.” As Anna made way for old Lorenzo to check Corey’s condition, Corey’s lifeless eyes suddenly turned bright. Before she could utter a syllable, she cried in pain, “Ah!”

“Corey, you are awake. What happened just now? It almost seemed like you were going to die.” Susan hugged Corey in relief.

“Awh..Ah,” Corey wanted to answer Susan, but her swollen cheeks, aching gums, and loose teeth made it hard to say anything but cry in pain.

“…” Susan did not know how to explain to Corey about her swollen cheeks. Lorenzo and Clown Mask chose to stay quiet too.

“Girl! If not for my treatment, you would have died right now. Sore mouth, Swollen cheeks, aching gum, and loose teeth are its side effects. Bear with it.” Saying that Anna used her healing card on Corey, healing her sore mouth.

“Thank you!” Thanking Anna for healing her, Corey then turned to Susan and said, ” which University is Wyatt joining? I will join that! Then we can work together at his card boutique. I am doing this because I do not like to be indebted to others and for no other reason.”

“He has not decided yet!” Susan only knew how much Wyatt told her, and she did not hide anything from Corey.

“What? Then why is he closing the card boutique so early? There is still so much time for the start of University.” Having calmed down, Corey finally reached the real question.

“About that, we are moving to Heatsend Royal palace in a few days for the creation of a massive order of cards that Emperor Luna will soon be placing.” Having informed the complete truth finally, Susan felt relieved.

“Why have I not been informed about this? I am an employee of this Card boutique too.” The thought of being apart from Susan for months didn’t sit right with Corey.

“Sweetie, you are no longer part of the Card Boutique, remember?” Susan reminded Corey that she was not a part of the Card boutique and had started her own Card Studio.

“I do. But I lost the bet with Wyatt, and since then, I have become this Card boutique’s employee. As an employee, I demand to go to the Royal palace with you guys.” Corey requested Manager Susan as an Employee.

“Honey, Wyatt did not approve of your return. Even if you do return, it is not in mine or Wyatt’s hands to take you to Royal Palace. You can come with us only if you have the appropriate security clearance and an invitation.” Susan explained how Corey couldn’t tag along to the Heatsend royal palace.

“What if I get an invitation? Then can I tag along with you?” Corey asked Susan.

“Nope, you still need to get Wyatt’s approval to return to the card boutique. Corey, do not be stubborn.” Susan did not want to recruit Corey without Wyatt’s permission.

“No problem, for now, I will get an invitation to the Royal Palace.” Corey accepted Susan’s rejection positively and turned to Anna, saying, “I remember you!”

“What?” Anna did not understand what Corey was talking about.

“You attend my first birthday party.” Corey decided to help Anna remember by dropping a hint.

“Yes, I did. How do you remember? You were about four weeks or a month old back then. You still remember that day.” Anna was surprised to hear that Corey remembered memories dating back a few weeks since her birth.

“Yes, I do. I remember you throwing a tantrum because my father and mother did not choose you as my Godmother. But do you remember that night you visited my crib? I guess you don’t. After all, you were pretty drunk that night.” Corey recalled all of her memories thanks to her origin card. Even the ones when she was a toddler.

“Where are you going, girl?” Anna understood what Corey was trying to do.

Corey’s mouth spoke, “You know what I want,” and her eyes told the rest, “give it to me, and I will stay quiet.” Yep, Corey was blackmailing Anna with the embarrassing memories she recalled about Anna.

Anna glared at Corey and said, “Fine, you are invited to the Royal Palace as a guest for an extended stay. Old man, arrange everything.”

“Ms. Corey, when will you visit the Palace? If you give me a date, I can make appropriate arrangements for your extended stay.” Old Lorenzo asked Corey for a date for her arrival.

“I will tag along with them. And make sure to give big sis Susan and me adjoining rooms.” Corey did not shy from stating what she desired. She dared to blackmail the Southern emperor. This was nothing. Thanks to Anna’s invitation, she could live in the palace, unlike Wyatt and Susan, who are invited based on their work. This way, even if Wyatt denied her from rejoining the card boutique, she could still visit the palace as a guest and stay close to Susan.

“Sigh! Corey, I have no time to play with you. I have to procure the ingredients Wyatt ordered and arrange them. See you later.” Saying that Susan turned to Anna and said, “Royal Highness, if you need anything, please give me a call. I will be at your service.”

“Sure” Anna nodded in agreement and headed to the couch.

“Big Sis, wait up! Let me help you.” Corey hurriedly followed Susan offering her help.
