HappyNovelChapter 145 ---- I touch the hidden vialstheyre still in place.
I walk quickly back to that witchs house, unsure of how much thas passed.
"T have the payment for MadAugusta," I tell her guards at the door, and they signalto go inside.
I follow the stone path, and before I can knock, she appears at the entrance.
I mobilize my power to conceal the magic within the potions so she wont detect them.
"Did you bring the payment?" she asks harshly.
"Yes, will you accept this hairpin?" I pull out the exquisite ornament, and she snatches it with her plump hands.
Her eyes gleam with greed.

"Well, it barely covers the f*e, but III accept it, just so they dont say Im a cruel woman. Here," she pulls a vial from her cleavage and tosses it through the air into my hand.
I catch it nervously.
Even though I dont plan to use it, still...
how can she just throw such an expensive medicine like that?! Damn witch! "Follow that path.
Your friends are in the back.
Give her the medicine and leave within fifteen minutes I dont want you lingering around my house," and with that, she slams the door in my face.
I curse her entire past and future family under my breath, but I have to swallow my words and hurry down the narrow path that circles the house to the backyard.
Celine and Quinn were crammed into a rundown wooden shed, like sstorage space at the edge of the yard.
I push the rigid wooden door open and step inside the cramped space.
"Valeria! Thank the Goddess you re okay.
If youd taken one more second, I wouldve gone after you!" ---- Quinn jumps up from an old chair.
Beside him, on a low cot, Celine lies with her eyes closed, her face twisted in pain.
"Calm down.
Everythings going to be fine, Quinn.
I need you to watch the doorquickly," I tell him, and though he looks hesitant, he doesnt ask questions and immediately presses against the wall to peer outside through a crack.
I sit beside Celine and pull her into my arms.
Her body trembles, her skin flushed and feverishher temperature is dangerously high.

I pull out Alondras vial and stare at it for a second, deciding to trust her because I have no other choice.
I bring it to Celines pale lips and pour the dark liquid into her throat.
"Con, Celine, drink it, drink it," I hold her mouth shut, not letting her spit it out.
She chokes a little, as if shes about to cough, but I force hen and in the end, she swallows it with a grimace of disgust.
"Ts that the medicine from that woman? Did that damn King give you damin a the money?" Quinn asks in a low voice, his frustration more than obvious.
"No, Quinn, something far more extraordinary happened," and in his mind, I recount everything that "EM happened concisely. "Now I dont know what to do with this.
Im afraid it might be poisonous...
will we be found out if we throw it away?" I pull out the vial Augusta gave me, considering my options.
"Give it to me," he takes it from my hand and holds it. "Hows Celine?" mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
