Chương 783: For old times sake

[ FORBIDDEN MANSION ]

Aries's coughing echoed across the chambers. She coughed and coughed until she was spitting out blood, clutching her chest tightly.

"Hurts…" came out of her lips, slumped on the floor near the bed. 

Aries snapped her eyes at the glass of water placed on the bedside table. The heat and pain that suddenly struck her made her entire body boil, constricting her lungs as if something slashed deep across her body. However, there was no blood on her body aside from the drop of blood on her palm because of her intense coughing. 

"Hah…" her breathing grew heavier with each passing second. Soon, her vision started to blur. Droplets of sweat formed on her forehead, drenching her back and nape. 

Even before Aries could speak, act, or even think, she lost consciousness. Her body landed on the floor with a thud, passing out on the cold floor with her palm open, revealing the blood on it.
