Jone felt a chill run down his spine when he heard what Kate said. Before he could say anything, a snake came slithering over from the living room.
Kate was so frightened she almost passed out. Delilah was panicking so much that her face lost all color .
Jone had no choice but to clasp his palms together in prayer. He said to the snake, “Master, don’t worry. I will keep my promise. I’m going to see Budd to make things right. My daughter is still young, please don’t get mad. I’ll teach her a lesson!”
Kate thought that her father had gone insane. Little did she know that many other families had snake
attacks in their homes too.
Since they were the offerings of Sothoth, it was easy for Sothoth to find them just by tracking the
resentment.
At the same time, in an old apartment building, no one dared to go near the Wilson family’s unit.
Their neighbors avoided their unit. They pitied them, but at the same time, they were afraid they would
catch bad luck.
Of course, there were kind people as well. A kind old lady knocked on their door. “Leanne, have some food. We made extra today You need to eat. Don’t listen to what others are saying”
The person who opened the door was Budd’s wife, Leane. She was a beautiful woman, even with minimal
makeup on.
She looked quite distressed as she had not been resting well. Her lips were cracked, and her hair was in a
mess.
“Thank you, Mrs. Kierson.” Leane thanked her but did not accept the food from her. “But you should take that back. It won’t be good if your daughter–in–law sees you here.”
Ethel Kierson sighed. “How is Budd? Is he better?” Ethel thought that since Leanne would not accept any food, she could at least talk to her and offer her some comfort.
At that moment, the door to the next unit swung open. A woman with a child in her arms came out and
sneered.
“She’s not eating, but you still want to give her food. Those who don’t know might think that she is your daughter–in–law.
“If you’re not going to serve me, you can just go back to your own place. Your son has been ogling her all day. I see where he gets it from!
“Mary, what nonsense are you on about?” Ethel pulled Mary along.
Mary snickered. “Everyone In this building knows what kind of character she is. Her daughter took after her which was why she-

The sound of a chair being kicked interrupted Mary. She jumped and shuddered.
Before she could say anything, an ice–cold woman’s voice rang out. “One should watch their tongue when they are still alive. Don’t gossip or bad–mouth others. If not, when they end up in hell, they’d have to have their tongues pulled out.”
Wynter looked at Mary with an overbearing aura. She gave off an authoritative air that meant that she was not to be messed with.
Mary took a step back and muttered, “Who the hell are you? Why are you interfering in other people’s matters? What day and age is this where one is still so superstitious about hell?”
“Oh, so you know a thing or two about this.” Wynter said slowly, “Then do you know that insulting the family members of the military could make you end up in prison?”
Mary hesitated a little while. She knew that Budd used to be in the army, but he was retired. Leane was no family member of the military. She was just a man–stealing whore!
But Mary did not say these things out loud. She was afraid that Wynter might be quite powerful.
Wynter took one glance at Mary and instantly knew that Mary only liked to bully others who were weaker
than her.
Dalton arrived two minutes later. His gaze darkened. “What is going on here?”
