Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 121

Jim muttered, "She's fierce. Too fierce."

He had suffered a huge loss because of today's incident. God knew how long it would take for him to recover after shedding blood—those few droplets had been filled with his life energy!

He sensed that the fierce ghost had seemingly disappeared from the room, but this didn't relieve him. He didn't think his blood had scared it away.

Jim turned to look at Francis, and his gaze landed on the emerald pendant hanging from the latter's neck. He slowly widened his eyes.

Then, his expression morphed into one of rage as he shouted, "I thought you were being earnest in inviting me over, Mr. Gray. Why have you kept so many things from me?"

Connor had barely escaped death. His expression was a little ugly as he looked at Jim. "What's that supposed to mean?"

Jim pointed at the emerald pendant. "Since you know a geomancy master who's capable of creating a protective instrument of such quality, why did you come to me? Even without me, the emerald pendant would've been enough to keep you safe from malevolent spirits!"

Connor and Francis were taken aback by his words. They both looked at the emerald pendant, which Shannon had earlier gifted them.

They hadn't been sure whether Shannon had been telling the truth, but they'd still dug out the emerald pendants after listening to her words. Sure enough, less misfortune had befallen them.

Connor had even asked the geomancy master who'd helped Rachel change her astrological house in the past. The latter had verified Shannon's words.

Jim spoke the truth; he didn't notice the ugly looks on Francis' and Connor's faces. How were they going to tell him that they hadn't bought the emerald pendant?

If not for the things that had happened recently, the one Francis currently wore would've been gathering dust in some unknown corner.

Francis knew Connor had been plagued by nightmares lately and hadn't been against him hiring a geomancy master to cleanse the house. Still, did this mean they had no choice but to go to Shannon for help?

Connor didn't say anything. His thoughts mirrored Francis'. After what had happened, he wasn't sure if Shannon was still willing to help him. Besides, Rachel would probably be vehemently against him asking Shannon for help.

If he couldn't find a reliable geomancy master to help resolve the issue, there was only one alternative left for him—he had to get the emerald pendant back from Rachel.
