Don't Fall For Me, CEO-Chapter 983: Safe Return

Susan Carter wished countless times to ruin the meals and do the housework poorly, hoping July Quinn would find it intolerable and drive him away.

Today, his dream just about came true.

But unexpectedly, he found himself reluctant to leave July Quinn...

Susan Carter didn’t know why he had such a ridiculous thought, but when he came to his senses, he had already said to July Quinn, "I don’t want to leave."

"I’m not taking you with me anyway." July Quinn tucked the Nine Lives Resurrection Grass into her pocket and then took out the first-aid supplies Liam Monroe had given her earlier to tend to the wound on her wrist.

The wound was inflicted when she was having hallucinations and needed to clear her head.

Though not large, it was quite deep.

Seeing this, Susan Carter quickly came over to help.

In no time, the two of them had the wound bandaged.

As they descended the mountain together, Susan Carter pleaded with great internal conflict, "I promise I won’t betray you again. Just let me follow you."

July Quinn ignored him and continued to hurry down the mountain.

Susan Carter could only keep finding reasons and excuses for himself, "Besides, you got me used to a leisurely life, lying at home, enjoying streaming series and online shopping for fun. Now you want me to return to a life of conflicts, and I can’t adjust."

"Not being able to adjust is your problem, not mine. I don’t need you now."

In fact, having Susan Carter leave had been part of July Quinn’s plan for some time.

Because in the coming days, she planned to leave here to find her mother.

Susan Carter’s identity abroad was rather sensitive, and taking him along would probably cause some problems.

However, Susan Carter thought his recent behavior had annoyed July Quinn, prompting her to want to drive him away.

"No matter what, I’m sticking with you."

As they descended the mountain, neither of them looked well, both sticking to their own points of view.

But for Liam Monroe, who came to pick them up, all that mattered was that they returned safely.

"So, was there really a rumored beast on the mountain? Was it terrifying?" 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

During their time on the mountain, Liam Monroe had been searching the dark web for information on Mount Vorlag.

According to the descriptions from people there, the mountain was full of beasts, incredibly fierce, with few survivors.

But seeing July Quinn and Susan Carter return so quickly and safely made him doubtful about the accuracy of the descriptions he had read.

"Yeah, super terrifying."

"If you saw it, you’d probably be scared to tears."

Both July Quinn and Susan Carter tacitly agreed not to tell Liam Monroe the truth, as it was nature’s way of protecting itself.

After obtaining the Nine Lives Resurrection Grass, July Quinn met Collin Wright again and received a few other herbs needed to break the love curse.

"As the saying goes, ’he who ties the knot, must untie it.’ Even if you have the Nine Lives Resurrection Grass, you still need the heart’s blood of the one who cast the spell."

Collin Wright was doubtful of July Quinn, even though she had acquired the Nine Lives Resurrection Grass.

After all, such bloody deeds were generally beyond the capability of ordinary women.

But July Quinn remained indifferent, "Just tell me whether I need Bianca White’s heart blood or Tina Drake’s."

"A love curse is fed with the blood of the one the afflicted loves deeply, so of course, it requires Miss White’s heart blood to break it."

Having received Collin Wright’s answer, July Quinn took the herbs and immediately headed to the White Family, even though it was already late at night.

Susan Carter, determined to follow July Quinn for life, quickly followed her as she left.

Watching July Quinn’s departing figure, Collin Wright couldn’t help but feel some concern.

"Is it really okay for her to go like this? I’ve heard that the White Family holds a special status in Esteria, and if caught, they surely wouldn’t go easy on her."

Liam Monroe, however, just laughed at him, "You worry too much. If the White Family sees her now, they’d be scared enough to offer her stinky tofu on the spot!"

A while ago, Liam Monroe had just learned about how July Quinn had made the head of the White Family make stinky tofu for a whole night as a wicked prank.

But Collin Wright didn’t know any of this and just looked confused.

Stinky tofu?

What the heck?
