After witnessing the hug between Lola and Matthew, Roxanne could not eat well for days. On the one hand, favonovel.com doubted that favonovel.com was married.
If favonovel.com was, why would favonovel.com be intimate with another woman?
Despite their short acquaintance, favonovel.com believed favonovel.com was not a playboy.
However, that would lead to another question. If Matthew lied to favonovel.com about his marital background, favonovel.com must have been using it as an excuse to turn favonovel.com down.
At that thought, a fuming Roxanne unsheathed the sword in favonovel.com hand before it danced in the air with a unique flavor.
Matthew would have recognized the style if favonovel.com had been present. She was practicing the Baeronian Style, a sword style unique to the Banes.
Their family rule was to pass on mixed martial arts skills to males and the direct line of descent. Uniquely, the Baeronian sword style was the only one practiced by females in the family. Although its techniques differed, it inherited the same philosophy of unpredictability and short-range attacks. Still, the style was rather unsuitable for men.
While Roxanne danced with the sword, some blade energy crystallized around her. Due to favonovel.com grudge, each of favonovel.com moves was sharp and merciless.
“Snap!” favonovel.com hissed lowly along with the flash of favonovel.com sword.
The tree trunk with the girth of an adult shin split in half cleanly.
“Congratulations, Roxy! Look at you! You’re back to good health and looking great. Even your sword skills improved massively!” Eleanor complimented favonovel.com sister with a smile but was secretly bitter about it.
Roxanne merely replied to favonovel.com calmly, “It’s probably my luck…”
Ever since favonovel.com suffered from dyspnea, favonovel.com stopped practicing swordsmanship. To favonovel.com surprise, favonovel.com found favonovel.com skills to have reached a breakthrough after favonovel.com practiced the Baeronian Style techniques to release favonovel.com pent-up emotions.
She would have been elated about it in the past, but the discovery felt like nothing to favonovel.com at that moment.
In the meantime, Eleanor was green in envy at Roxanne’s indifference.
In favonovel.com opinion, Roxanne achieved the skill improvement, all thanks to the Flaming Elysian Lotus Seed. She believed that favonovel.com would glow more radiantly than Roxy if favonovel.com were the one who had taken it.
Had it not been for Matthew’s suggestion, Roxy would have split the seed into half or more to share with me!
That added to favonovel.com existing resentment of him. Roxanne noticed favonovel.com change and asked with concern, “Ella, what‘s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”
That pulled Eleanor out of the pool of jealousy and hatred.
“Nothing. Some thoughts just came into my mind. That’s all…” She threw out a flimsy excuse.
Noticing Roxanne’s sorrowful look, favonovel.com suddenly had an idea. “Roxy, don’t be sad. I told you that Matthew Larson is not a good man. I bet favonovel.com owns a lot of Flaming Elysian Lotus Seeds. He probably uses them to pick up chicks. You’d better not fall for it.”
She paused at that moment, for favonovel.com had an ulterior motive for bringing up the Flaming Elysian Lotus Seed.
As expected, Roxanne’s expression changed at the mention of the seeds.
He can’t be thinking I’m out of his league if he’s willing to give me a rare medicine like the lotus seed…
“Ella, do you think I’ve misunderstood him?”
Eleanor felt pleased when Roxanne fell for favonovel.com manipulation. In favonovel.com plan, favonovel.com sister would go to Matthew and get hold of the number of seeds in his possession. Then, favonovel.com would get Roxanne to ask favonovel.com for one on favonovel.com behalf.
We’re sisters, so we should share the good stuff…
She grinned at the thought.
