Chapter 176 Adeline was Drugged and Yetta Sought Help from Logan
On her way, Adeline bought some pastries that Olivia liked and headed to the old house.
As soon as she entered the old house, she bumped into Yetta, Curtis' sister-in-law.
They hadn't had much contact privately, so Adeline didn't know what to say.
But Yetta, with her gentle and warm voice, greeted her affectionately, "Adeline, come here, and let's have cubilose together."
After saying that, Yetta brought out two bowls of cubilose from the kitchen. "Try it, it's coconut cubilose. I stewed it myself. It's delicious."
Her voice was soft and sweet, and it felt very pleasant to listen to.
"Okay," Adeline responded and ate the cubilose with Yetta, but soon they ran out of topics to talk about.
Yetta discreetly glanced at Adeline and tried to find a topic of conversation. "Adeline, I think your temperament suits ancient costumes very well. Have you ever worn the traditional dress before?"
"No." Adeline shook her head.
"Oh, what a pity! I think you would look beautiful in it!" Suddenly, Yetta had an idea. She took Adeline to her own room. She opened the wardrobe and showed her the traditional dresses she owned.
"Look, this one is from the Jin Dynasty, and this one is from the Tang Dynasty. Tang Dynasty clothes often have low-cut designs, which are sexy and elegant when worn."
Yetta took out a white embroidered dress and handed it to Adeline. "Try it on."
Adeline looked at it. This dress was from the Tang Dynasty series, exposing a large area of the chest. She felt a bit embarrassed, but the embroidery on the dress was beautiful, which made her somewhat tempted.
Seeing Adeline's hesitation, Yetta nudged her elbow. "Go ahead and try it on. It's just the two of us girls, and what's there to be afraid of? Besides, I have a complete set of accessories. I can help you with the styling later."
After saying that, Yetta also chose a Tang Dynasty chiffon skirt for herself. "I'll change too. We can take a photo together later."
Yetta was a fan of ancient-style traditional dress and loved playing around with them in her daily life.
Adeline was also influenced by her and quickly changed into the clothes.
When she saw herself in the mirror, she was stunned.
The low-cut design exposed her sexy and deep collarbone, while the waistband accentuated her slender waist.
At this moment, Yetta also finished changing and walked out, looking at Adeline in shock. "Oh my God, Adeline, you look stunning! If you were in the Tang Dynasty, you would definitely be a favored concubine."
Adeline smiled. "If I were in the harem of the Tang Dynasty, I would starve to death. Don't forget that the Tang Dynasty valued plumpness as beauty."
Yetta was momentarily stunned, then she quickly responded, "That's true. But maybe the emperor would change his mind when he sees you! Adeline, let me style your hair."
Saying that, Yetta stood in front of the mirror and helped Adeline let her hair down, creating a simple hairstyle.
She styled her own hair as well, and then she started taking selfies.
Bang, bang.
A servant knocked on the door. "Yetta, Mr. Riley has returned. He just went upstairs to his room."
"Oh." Yetta waved her hand dismissively. "Adeline and I are doing our hair. I'll greet him when my husband comes back."
After all, her husband wasn't here at the moment, so it would be strange for her, as the sister-in-law, to go and greet him.
Just as she finished speaking, the servant glanced at the cubilose on the table and hesitated, "Yetta, did you eat the cubilose?"
"Yes, I did! Is there a problem?" Yetta looked at the servant with a puzzled expression.
This servant was hired by her, and she was quite fond of her.
"Why didn't you ask me to bring it for you?" The servant pointed at the bowls and asked, "Yetta, which bowl did you eat from?"
Yetta's expression changed slightly, and she blinked innocently. "The white bowl!"
The servant's pupils suddenly contracted, and she pointed at the beige stewing bowl and asked, "Then... who ate from that one?"
Yetta's eyes widened, and she looked at Adeline and the servant. "Did you drug it?"Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
The servant swallowed nervously and nodded.
Yetta couldn't sit still anymore. She stood up excitedly. "Did you drug the package of powder I bought from the black market? It demands that the person who consumed it must engage in intimate activities, or else their blood vessels will burst and result in sudden death. Furthermore, they have to engage in intimate activities continuously for seven days and nights to detoxify that package of powder!"
The servant wanted to cry. "But you told me to do it! You said it was for your own use!"
Adeline's face turned pale.
Hearing that not engaging in intimate activities would result in sudden death, her face turned even more shocked.
Yetta patted her chest and reassured Adeline, "Don't be afraid, I'll call Logan. He should be on his way."
After saying that, Yetta picked up her phone and dialed a number.
