The Author's POV

Chapter 438

"...If you don't want to die, you need to stop her from curing her mother."

Angelica's words echoed throughout the room, and my body froze as a result of her words. Following which, my head snapped in her direction.

"What are you talking about?"

I will die if Amanda cures her mother? What in the world was she on about?

Sitting back down on her chair and crossing her legs, Angelica nodded her head. A heavy solemness descended upon the room.

Sitting up straight, I waited for her to speak.

After a short pause, Angelica opened her mouth and asked.

"Do you remember when we signed a contract?"

"Yes."

How could I forget?

It was a couple of days after I managed to defeat her and wanted to make her join my group. But why was she suddenly asking about this?

Pursing her lips, Angelica's delicate brows knit together before she finally let out a long sigh.

"I'll cut straight to the point, the person who has cursed Amanda's mother was me."

"...huh?"

My eyes instantly opened wide upon hearing her words. Out of nowhere Angelica suddenly dropped a bombshell on me.

My mouth opened and closed repeatedly, as I struggled to find the right words to say.

I finally understood the meaning of her previous words.

[In no way shape or form can Party A harm Party B and viceversa]

This was one of the clauses in the mana contract that we signed, and me giving Amanda's mother the cure would be a direct breach of the contract, as it would directly harm Angelica.

This clause was also the reason why Angelica told me about the situation. If she didn't tell me, she would also be breaking the clause.

"This..."

I had many questions that I wanted to ask. However, I knew that I couldn't let my emotions get the best of me.

Closing my eyes and calming my uneven heartbeat, I opened them again and looked around.

Then, glancing at Angelica from the corner of my eyes, I spoke inside of my mind.

'In case someone overhears our conversation, it's best if the two of us telepathically talk.'

[Okay.]

Angelica nodded her head. After which, demonic energy suddenly sprung forth from her body as she once again returned to her cat form.

Jumping onto the bed, she once again made a move for the ledge of the window. Once she settled down, she proceeded to look out of the window.

While this was happening, taking another deep breath and trying to calm my mind which was currently in shambles, I proceeded to question Angelica.
