Chapter 121: A Hug of Love Always Comes Out of the Blue
Her pale, flawless face was completely expressionless
Dat Brooke was close enough to see the terrifying danger in her eyes!
In that instant, it felt like he saw a shadow of Mr. Cassius in Genua
Hissssssss…
The small black snake was killed, but the others didn’t seem to care.
However, after the giant python fell, the rest of the snakes suddenly stopped attacking.
Instead, they circled the fallen python.
Though they couldn’t understand snake`s language.
It was clear they were agitated.
Gemma gripped her medicine bag tightly and walked forward.
Brooke instinctively tried to stop her.
Earlier, within their protective circle, even if a poisonous snake load attacked, they could’ve sluelded her.
At least, before they fell, no one could hurt her or Mr. Cassius.
But once they left the circle, they were on their own
Their primary mission was still to protect Mr. Caius,
Dat to his shock!
Mr. Cassis was acting just as recklessly.
He was following Gemma, walking forward with her.
It felt like a scene from the old romantic movies, where the leads decide to clope.
Brooke was losing his mind.
This wasn’t a soap opera–don’t go getting yourselves billedl
The python seemed to see something-
It raised its head quickly, its cold vertical pupils flashing with cold light as opened its massive jaws.
Cassius kept his face impassive, not even blinking.
He seemed confident that these poisonous snakes couldn’t get close to him.
And the pythons all gathered together, as if they had agreed on something, quickly moving towards them.
Gemma kept her eyes locked on their movements. Just before they made their move, she tossed every medicine pack in her hand.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
The explosions rang out, one after another.
White smoke filled the air, thick with the sharp scent of orpiment
When the smoke cleared.
The ground was littered with the bodies of poisonous snakes
The two giant pythons had vanished,
Everyone inside the villa froze in stunned silence.
Cassius waved his hand, signaling Brooke and the others to take action
They didn’t immediately kick down the door.
Instead, they picked up the dead snakes and slammed them against the glass.
“Bang!”
“Bang! Bang!”
Each hit felt like it was pounding on the heart.
The blood from the snakes streamed down the glass, creating a shocking sight.
Cassius ordered, “Smush the window, then throw them in ”
Brooke understood, loading his weapon, and with a sharp “bang“, the glass shattered.
Shawn, wearing white gloves, threw the giant snake’s body at the broken window:
Stop!”

Finally, a voice came from inside the mom
The door opened –
Derick stunned out.
Behind him were a sobbing Pamela and a fearful William, looking like a quail.
Gemma couldn’t help but laugh in disbelief,
“I thought this place was a limited house, but it tunes out a few ghosts still wander around.”
Before, she thought Cassius probably didn’t get along with his family, just like her own.
She though they didn’t care about him, maybe treated him like an outsider.
But she hadn’t expected this
These blood relatives were trying to use a snake swarm to attack Cassius
If she hadn’t been here today.
If she hadn’t grown up in the mountains where she knew how to deal with snakes and pests, who knows how bad things could’ve gottent
Instinctively
She stood in front of Cassius, watching the false people carefully..
Cassius, towering and still visible behind her, had a strange feeling inside him.
It was just —
After nearly thirty years, aside from his aunt, this was the first time someone had protected him so openly.
The feeling was… strange.
It made his heart waver for a moment
Derick glared at them, face red with rage.
“Well, well, look who thinks they’re big now–coming back and showing off in front of your old man!”
“What, now you dare smash windows? What’s next, bum the house down?”
Gemma sneered
So this was Cassius‘ father.
Just like her own father back in the village if anything, even worse.
Just as repulsivel
Her suppressed emotions bubbled up to the surface.
“Maybe you should’ve stayed quiet. As soon as you open your mouth, the scum just spills out almost suffocating me.”
“Do you even know what public decency is?”
Derick, who had always been the top dog in the Raven family’s business, was used to everyone buttering him up.
This was the first time he had ever been scolded like this
“You you
Furious, he raised his cane.
If not for the distance, it would’ve struck Gemma hard.
*Pamela quickly stepped forward, gently panting the old man’s back,
Then, she shot Gemma a quick look
“Why are you so rude, girl!”
“My husband was trying to give you an out. You didn’t take it, but why are you turning the tables on him?”
Gemma had no patience for her. “Are you selling stairs! So many steps to climb?”
Pamela, ever the hypocrite, loved to put on a facade, especially when it came to undermining others.
This time, her plan had worked–she had succeeded in riling up the old man.
But when Gemma thot back, it shattered the whole atmosphere.
Pamela was left speechless..
Gemma hadn’t expected her to be so weak in this kind of fight.
Compared to Mabel, Pamela was no match.
So she decided to change the topic.
“When we came here earlier, the yard was full of poisonous snakes. That wasn’t a coincidence, was it? You raised them!”
Pamela quickly denied it.

“That was my laband’s pets. They must’ve gone wild for some rrason, that’s all.”
“Little girl, you’re for, aren’t you? You killed so many makes, and we didn’t plan to hold it against you. But now, you’re making it into a big deal.” “Don’t think just because Cass is backing you up that you can do whatever you want.”
Cassius‘ voice was cold as ke
“You think these snakes escaped!”
The words sent a chill own everyone’s spine.
Pamela didn’t know what awful memory had resurfaced, but her body shook uncontrollably.
Derick, feeling protective of his wife, was furious
“Cass, you’ve crossed the line today! You’ve shown no respect for your elders, and now I’m seriously considering whether or not I should leave the family fortune to you!”
“Oh, really?”
Cassius looked up his gaze full of malice:
The intensity in lus eyes was like a thousand arrows, making Derick freeze, not daring to speak another word.
William, who had been avoiding attention, narrowed his eyes and made a gesture towards the bushes
He slowly and cautiously started backing away.
The sound of makes slathering echoed in Gemma’s can
She instinctively turned around, eyes widening in shock
“Cassius, watch out!“.
He was already full of poison he couldn’t afford another injury!
Otherwise, her reputation as a healer would be shot.
That was the excuse her brain came up with as she stepped in front of him
But instead of the expected pain.
She found herself falling into Cassius‘ arms.
The man gently patted her back.
“Don’t worry, I’m fine.”
