Chapter 377: Plans In Motion

Jess swirled the wine in her left hand as she used her right to draw the tray she was going to place the glass on closer. Knowing that the queen wasn't looking at her and was distracted by the wicked thoughts in her head, Jess bent her head forward a little,  making sure her movement would not be easily noticed -- even if she was being looked at from behind.

She gathered saliva in her mouth, grunting subtly as she fetched the deepest and thickest sputum from the back of her throat. Then, Jess released the gathered saliva into the glass of red wine. She swirled it some more as a sinister smile appeared on her lips. She bent her head to the side as she wiped the corner of her mouth absentmindedly on the shoulder of her dress. Jess waited a little -- patiently waiting for the wine and her saliva to mix and blend.
