Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 63

To Connor, even though the bangle was something Rose had left behind, it would be better off broken. After all, Shannon went against the Gray family just because of it.

Besides, if it was broken by Scott, Connor could use that as an excuse to lash out at him for ruining Rose's heirloom. By then, Shannon would have to take responsibility for it, even if she didn't want to help.

Better yet, the Grays could even demand compensation from the Jensens.

It would be perfect to ask the Jensens to reinstate and compensate them for all the terminated business contracts for the past two days, which had happened because of the Jensen family itself.

It was such a shame.

Why did he not smash it?

Connor looked at Scott rather regretfully.

Shannon saw his expression. With a cold face, she said, "You should leave if there's nothing else."

Hearing that, Connor turned around to look at her. He looked helpless. "Shannon, I really see you as a part of our family. Do you have to do this? Are you going to ignore your brother's request, too?"

Connor's words grated on Scott's nerves. His anger rose again, and he was about to chide him.

But Shannon beat him to it.

With a nonchalant tone, she asked, "Do you still have the emerald pendant I gave you?"

Scott and Connor were taken aback when they heard her random and unrelated question. Connor had to think for a second before realizing what pendant she was talking about.

Two years ago, she had started learning lapidary out of nowhere. She even gave him an emerald pendant that she carved.

He remembered she said, "Make sure to carry it everywhere with you."

Connor had said okay. But the next moment, he merely tossed the pendant aside. The quality of that emerald was nothing special either.

He never saw it anymore.

Now that she asked him about it, he didn't feel guilty. Instead, he asked her with a frown, "Why are you suddenly asking me about it?"

But Shannon's eyes rested on his arm, which was in a sling. Smiling, she already knew the answer.

Shannon added, "That's my last advice for you. It's up to you guys whether you want to listen."

After that, she couldn't be bothered to wait for him to leave. She took the bangle and left the family room. She went upstairs.

Yes, she took the bangle. That was considered her payment for giving him that advice.

Connor didn't expect her to leave just like that.

To his surprise, he was about to chase her when Scott went over and blocked his way. He then said loudly, "Thomas, see him out!"

Thomas appeared almost immediately. Looking at Connor, he put on a professional smile.

He was too good at seeing guests out.

Connor was forcefully ushered out of the Jensen residence. When Scott saw that the annoying Connor had finally left, he immediately stomped back upstairs.

He still had to settle some scores with Shannon!
