Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 187

"The mansion that we're looking at right now is a mansion that was built by a rich businessman 20 years ago. But ever since the construction was done, the mansion was sold to five different people at different times.

"It was said that every owner had gotten into an accident or two right after moving into the mansion. Those who lived in the mansion would either sustain varying degrees of injuries or even lose their lives…"

When Percy reached this point, he lowered his voice on purpose in an attempt to make the atmosphere more mysterious.

"Dear cast members, your mission in this episode is to stay in this mansion for the next three days. You'll be divided into different groups, and you'll be tasked to find out the actual lore behind this mansion. The cast members who complete their missions in every episode will get to accumulate their points and be given additional rewards."

Once Percy was done speaking, he noticed the conflicted expressions on the cast members' faces. Olivia's expression, in particular, was the most contorted one.

"You mentioned that no one has stayed in this mansion for a very long time, right? Has it been cleaned? The mansion looks so scary from the outside."

Eddie looked rather uneasy as well. "Since we're supposed to stay here for the next three days, does that mean we're only allowed to stay in this compound? We can't leave the mansion and the courtyard at all, right?"

Soren pointed out, "This mansion is pretty big. Is anyone else staying with us?"

Vincent asked, "Do we need to fulfill any criteria in order to team up with each other?"

Percy answered all the questions hurled at him by the cast members.

"Don't worry, everyone. The mansion has been cleaned thoroughly beforehand. You won't be sleeping in rooms filled with cobwebs tonight. Also, you may leave the mansion during the daytime, but you must return before nightfall.

"This mansion has been prepared specifically for you. The crew members are free to enter and exit the mansion during the three days, but they won't be staying with you. As for the teams, the only requirement is that you must pair up with one other person.

"Now, you'll need to split into three groups. You may pair up with anyone you wish to work with."

After Percy was done speaking, Juniper, who had remained silent the whole time, finally took the initiative to speak up. "Soren and I will be on the same team."

Everyone turned to look at Juniper instinctively. Although the previous incident was quickly masked by the jokes, they knew very well that he was up to something.

After all, Juniper was the first one to declare his reluctance to film the show with Soren right from the start. Now, he changed his tune by claiming that he wanted to be on the same team as Soren. Naturally, everyone knew that Juniper was definitely up to something.

"Didn't that guy say something about not wanting to film the show with Ren earlier? Why did he change his mind all of a sudden?"

"Logically speaking, Shannon and I should be teammates. But if we're meant to look for clues in the near future, it'll be very difficult for us because of the stamina required.

"That's why I think I should pair up with Vincent. It only makes sense for men and women to be paired together due to their respective biological advantages," Olivia said cheerfully.

After that, she began making her way toward Vincent.

At that moment, everyone knew what she was actually planning. The thing was, Olivia had declared her purpose with a wide smile on her face. No one could really call her out on her scheming nature.

The reason why Olivia was known as Scheming Livy was because of her personality. The only difference between her and other scheming women was that she tended to be very blunt and straightforward about what she planned on doing.

Since Olivia had stated her desire to pair up with Vincent, no one would fight with her over that spot. That meant Shannon and Eddie would be teammates.

Just as everyone thought the cast members' teams were finalized, Shannon spoke up all of a sudden.

"Eddie and I can't be on the same team."
