Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 282

When Madeline fished out the bracelet, her hands began to tremble slightly.

To answer Shannon's earlier question, Madeline had seen a pair of gold bracelets inside the satchel. At first, she didn't plan on keeping one for herself. She was a popular actress, after all. There was no need for her to vie for gold accessories.

It was just that she liked the bracelet's design. She wanted to show one of the bracelets in order to strengthen her lucky charm persona. The other one was meant to be melted down into a gold bar so that she could present it as a wedding gift to her cousin in the near future.

Little did she know that the bracelets came with their own set of problems.

Madeline felt extremely uncomfortable when she saw Shannon scrapping the ashes out of the first bracelet. She had the other bracelet in her pocket, after all.

Truthfully speaking, Madeline really wanted to give the second bracelet to Shannon and have her deal with it too. But she was also worried that her image would be ruined because she had chosen to keep a bracelet for her own gain, so she had to endure the discomfort.

Now that Madeline knew that the bracelets were problematic, there was no way she'd keep the second bracelet.

Although she couldn't have the bracelet destroyed in front of the viewers, she still possessed another repel talisman that Juniper had drawn. She could always destroy it herself.

Madeline thought the destruction process was relatively easy, mainly because Shannon made it look easy.

She put the bracelet carefully on the ground and destroyed it with a rock, just like how Shannon did. After that, she scraped out some of the ashes before pulling out Juniper's talisman. She imitated Shannon's actions by throwing the talisman onto the ashes.

Unlike the first talisman, this talisman didn't combust on its own.

Fear and anxiety rushed through Madeline's senses immediately. She was worried that someone might come across her, so she quickly used a lighter to burn the talisman.

Flames began licking at the talisman. Madeline placed the burning talisman onto the ashes. Soon, the ashes were burned into nothing.

After the talisman was reduced to nothing, Madeline quickly buried the second bracelet. She had asked Shannon earlier on how to deal with the bracelet.

Now that Madeline was done with everything and dealt with the bracelet properly, she let out a deep breath out of relief. She vowed to never pick up any valuable things from now on.

Such things were extremely creepy and dangerous.

Upon returning to the room, Madeline walked over to her bed nonchalantly and began gathering her stuff so that she could wash up in the bathroom.

"I'm already used to it," Shannon replied. She wanted to use the opportunity to see what was wrong with Mount Solara as well.

Olivia just clicked her tongue. Once she was done washing up, she began styling her hair and doing her makeup.

It was almost time for the livestream to start. Olivia spared a glance at Madeline, who was still asleep.

No matter how much she disliked Madeline, she couldn't be obvious about it. So, she walked over and began pushing Madeline while telling her to wake up.

"It's almost time for the livestream. You won't make it if you don't get up and do your makeup now."

Although bare-faced celebrities had always been popular in variety shows, everyone still preferred to put on makeup whenever possible. Female celebrities were especially mindful of their looks.

Olivia heard Madeline groan impatiently to indicate that she had woken up.

Madeline sat up on the bed lazily. Olivia was right in front of her at that time. The moment she saw Madeline's bare face, she couldn't help but widen her eyes.
