Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 275

"That bracelet is pretty valuable, isn't it? Shouldn't she hand it over to the police?"

Madeline must have known that some of the viewers would ask that question, for she continued, "I wanted to hand the bracelet over to the police, but I wanted to bring it over so that the production crew could get a recording of it.

"Maybe the bracelet's owner might see it on the livestream and come over to claim it."

As she spoke, she motioned for a cameraman to give the bracelet a close-up shot.

The reason why Madeline chose to display the lucky satchel was to strengthen her lucky charm persona. After all, not everyone got to come across valuable accessories while they were walking on the street.

The moment Madeline discovered the satchel, she had an inkling that it'd be a great way to boost her popularity. That way, the marketing accounts would be able to write new articles about it.

Madeline's manager didn't object to the idea. So, Madeline brought the satchel to the livestream right away. She even showed the bracelet to the guests and the viewers.

While Madeline fantasized about the viewers showering her with praises and compliments, she heard a melodic female voice ring from the guests.

"Has no one told you before not to pick up valuables and money from the street, especially when they're placed into red satchels?"

Shannon sounded impassive as usual. She didn't sound confrontational at all. If anything, she sounded like she was giving sage advice.

Madeline subconsciously turned to look at Shannon. Since she had already decided to accept the production crew's invitation, it was only natural for her to research all the guests.

Shannon, in particular, was her target.

In the previous episode, Shannon gained over a million fans overnight. Very few people in the entertainment industry could achieve that effect.

Back then, Madeline paid close attention to Shannon. She had a feeling that Shannon was more capable of stealing the thunder in comparison to Olivia.

See? Her prediction came true.

Caleb was speechless at first when he received the message. He was so angry that he almost smashed his phone on the spot.

He already told Scott that he didn't hire any trolls. Heck, his assistant was the one in charge of his bank account right now. As if he could hire more trolls without money!

Rarely was Caleb this upset and aggrieved. Scott just loved framing him for the things he never did.

…

Shannon had no idea what was going on in the comment section. She gazed at Madeline, who pretended to look sincere.

She replied lightly, "There's a saying in the mystic arts world that people only wrap their valuables in red cloth and leave them on the street just so they can buy two things—life and luck. Once you pick it up, it's your way of giving consent to the thrower that they get to take the thing they want from you."

The bracelet was similar to the contract that Emily was tricked into signing back then. But they weren't entirely the same. Based on Shannon's initial observation, the one who threw the gold bracelet intended to buy something special.
