Chapter 294 - Curtiss Abnormality (1/2)

Parker released his grip and hesitated for a second, but immediately tightened his grip on Bai Qingqing, saying to Harvey, “Try to be gentler.”

“Alright, I will,” Harvey replied.

Bai Qingqing wore a dejected face as she looked toward Winston, reaching out her hand toward him. “Winston, save me!”

Winston instinctively took one step forward, then forcibly rooted his feet to the ground. He spoke in a deep voice, “Bear with it.”

Bai Qingqing gave up hope completely, docilely allowing them to apply garlic on her as she kept on sobbing.

Bai Qingqing’s mood turned for the better after seeing Curtis’s back view sitting in the room. She walked into the room and said, “Curtis, what are you doing?”

“Clink clank—”

A mirror from Curtis’s hand flew into the grass nest, and at the next instant, Curtis turned into his snake form and slithered into the secondary bedroom with a “swoosh”.
