Chapter 396

Chapter 396 We’ll Start With Him, Then

Courtney only felt sick to the stomach as she clutched the corner of the table for support, retching up nothing but stomach acids.

Just then, she heard a strangled, intermittent cry from the bed behind her. When she looked back, she saw Poppy biting into her arm with all her might. Her eyes were bloodshot, and she showed no signs of relaxing her bite even when her arm started bleeding.

“Are you crazy?” Courtney hurried toward Poppy and grabbed her arm. “Hurry up and stop biting your arm! You wanna die here?”

If Poppy broke the main artery, no one would treat her in this wilderness. Only one thing awaited her then—death.

However, Poppy wasn’t swayed by Courtney’s words. She was still biting into her wrist as hard as possible, causing her wrist to bleed nonstop.

In a moment of desperation, Courtney lowered her voice and chided, “You’ve done so many things for Britney, yet you try to kill yourself now that you’ve gotten in her way. Keeping her interests in mind, eh?”

Poppy’s expression changed. Stunned, she stared blankly at Courtney and loosened her bite on her wrist.

Courtney continued, “There are many ways to die if you want to. Well, all your troubles will end when you die, but the living are gonna live on. If you think your death can bring any change to the living, I’d say such a price is too heavy. And besides, someone like Britney will just have you disposed of in the mountains to feed the wolves if you’re dead.”

Poppy’s face turned pale at her words. Trembling, she said, “S-She’s not human.”
