Chapter 134 "It's nothing serious, just that the butler saw you heading into the woods after leaving the party and was a bit worried, so he sentto check on you. The backwoods are vast and it's getting dark. Even though there are street lamps, it's easy to get lost since you're not familiar with the area, Ms. Nightshade." "No worries." Xanthea brushed off her hands and stood up. “I'll just take a quick look at the flowers and head back." "Alright!" Linda smiled, her eyes twinkling mischievously. "Do you have a favorite type of flower, Ms. Nightshade? I can help you look for it here in the woods." "Yes, but it's quite rare. I love irises." "What a coincidence!" Linda clapped her hands excitedly. "Just a few hundred yards ahead, there's a cliff, and right at the base, there's a patch of wild black irises!" "Really?" Xanthea looked at her, surprised and delighted to find wild irises in the woods, especially rare black ones. "Let's go take a look then." "Sure, I'll cwith you, Ms. Nightshade!"

Anthony Marlowe finished signing a contract and stood up, shaking hands with Orion, smiling. "Mr. Lockwood, it's a pleasure to work with you. Here's to a successful project!" "Likewise." Orion, with his typically cool demeanor, seemed unusually congenial today.

"You seem in good spirits today, Mr. Lockwood. Any particular reason?" "Is the company of a beautiful lady reason enough?" Leonard chimed in from the side, causing Anthony to look at Orion in surprise, 'Really? Mr. Lockwood, do you have a girlfriend?" Orion glanced at Leonard, "Not exactly." Leonard laughed, sensing that it might just be a matter of time, especially with his own meddling.

"How about a gof golf, Orion? It's been a while since we played together! "I'm busy." "Expected, but you're too blunt! Ditching your friends for a lady, huh? Well, I always believe in returning a favor. Xanthea at the party in the backwoods. Don't thanktoo much when you see her later!" In the backwoods.

Xantfiea walked about four or five hundred yards and cupon a steep cliff, but there were no black irises at its base.

Chapter 134 Perhaps the plants were too sparse or hidden among the bushes? She moved closer, parting the bushes, searching thoroughly but found nothing.

"I can't see them." She turned, curious to ask Linda, but found that the servant had vanished without a trace.

A rustling sound cfrom the bushes, and a strong sense of foreboding suddenly overwhelmed Xanthea.

She was about to leave when she saw a cluster of snakes with m menacing pattern's Slithering out, their heads peeking out and tongues flicking red. In an instant, her eyes widened in utter terror, and she screamed at the top of her lungs..

Orion had just arrived at the party when he heard a familiar scream from the backwoods. His expression turned grave, and he ran swiftly towards the sound.

Terrified, Xanthea screamed and ran, zigzagging along the path. Snakes, with their poor vision and patience, struggle with sharp tums due to their linear bodies. She should have been able to lose them with a few twists and turns, but she still felt them closing in, about to wrap around her ankles. Chapter 135
