Chapter 128
The Heiress’ Return & Revenge
Chapter 128 It Shouldnât Be Like This!
Steven refused to let his son drip his blood onto the compass just so the two geomancy masters could
deal with his biological daughter.
He turned to Master Shane and asked, âMaster Shane, can you sell us two mystical tools?â Master
Shane was surprised as he hadnât expected this to be the final outcome after hours.
What was the point of my previous actions then? Moreover, I came here today to obtain the Gray
brothersâ blood and use it against Simone.
He sighed. âThis mystical tool was passed down to Gordon by our master, so I donât have it. In addition,
our sect has regulations prohibiting the lending or selling of inherited items. So, Mr. Gray, I apologize if I
have offended you!â Steven didnât insist. âIt was presumptuous of
1.
No problem. I can always ask the other geomancy masters if I can borrow or purchase one for Titus to
use.
Seeing that his plan wasnât working, Master Shane suggested. âIf you want to alleviate their pain, itâs
best to resolve the spell by dripping blood. Donât worry; I definitely wonât harm the one who cast this
spell.â
He added. âOnce the retaliated pain from the negative energy subsides, its effect will weaken, and the
other party will recover in a few days. It wonât cause any harm to the body.â
Steven quickly grasped the key point. âSo, youâre saying that my son will only experience pain but wonât
be physically harmed after getting cursed by the negative energy?â His question surprised Master
Shane.
Initially, he didnât intend to speak the truth. However, he feared Steven would worry about Simone and
become even less willing to resolve the spell.
After thinking for a moment, he decided to be honest. âYes, this is a type of negative energy that
resembles punishment. It will cause pain, but it wonât harm the body. In fact, such pain isnât physical
pain but more like the concept of phantom pain.â
Then, he emphasized. âSo, the retaliation wonât harm the body either.â
Of course, what Iâm saying is partially true and partially false.
Generally speaking, retaliation will indeed cause pain to Simone, but it wonât cause much harm to her
body.
But I will further use Mr. Titus blooil to cast a spell
Then, I will use blood to nourish the spell. When the time is right, Simone will be severely injured.
Steven could tell that Master Shane was telling the truth. Since the negative energy on Titusâ body isnât
harming him, that means Simone is still not so heartless as to harm her biological brotherâs health.
Therefore, he let go of his worries. âAs long as it doesnât harm their bodies, itâs fine for them to suffer for
a few days.â
I have doubts about these two masters, so I certainly wonât let Titus offer his blood.
Besides, I donât know if Master Shane is being truthful when he said the retaliation would pose no harm
to Simone.
And even if itâs not happening now, will they use Titus blood for something else in the future? Master
Shane and Master Gordon were speechless. It shouldnât be like this! Mr. Gray should have agreed to
let us resolve the spell after hearing that it wouldnât harm Simoneâs body!
Titus wasnât surprised that his biological father would make this choice.
After all, blood is thicker than water. A family is still a family, no matter how much we quarrel.
Outsiders have no right to interfere in our family affairs.
Growing up. Dad was busy with work, so he allowed us siblings to do as we pleased.
Even though he wouldnât meddle or interfere in our lives, he would prohibit us from doing as we
pleased regarding important matters.
Jodie didnât expect her adopted father to be so biased.
He doesnât even care about his son in order to protect Simone from harm.
I, on the other hand, have been the Gray Familyâs adopted daughter for over a decade. Even if Iâm not
close to him, there should still be some affection.
Yet, I canât believe he would be so indifferent.
Since he didnât care about us before, why is he interfering now? Somehow, I regret following Titus to
the Gray Group today.
Tshould have encouraged Titus to ask the two masters to treat us at the Gray Residence.
That way, Steven wonât be there to interfere in this matter.
Refusing to give up, Master Shane looked at Steven and said, âBut Gordon and I no longer have any
mystical tools to alleviate their pain.
At the same time, he silently cursed Master Gordon for being foolish and lending out the mystical tool
to alleviate their pain.
Steven smiled gently. âItâs alright. Let them learn a lesson. Master Shane, Master Gordon, thank you for
your help today.â
He settled the matter and handed them two checks as compensation for their hard work today.
The three of them stood and talked.
Unwilling to accept this outcome, Jodie tugged on Andrewâs sleeve again when she saw Steven with
his back turned to them.
Harold noticed this movement and immediately nudged Titus, signaling him to look.
Titus looked over and saw Andrew turn his head while Jodic mouthed to him with her eyes reddened in
tears and face as pale as a white sheet. âAndrew, Iâm in so much pain.â
Feeling extremely heartbroken, Andrew reached out and touched her head.
Then, he turned back and walked to Stevenâs side, whispering, âDad, why give up when thereâs a way
to break this curse? Titus and Jo are still in pain. How can they continue with. their work like this? Plus,
there arenât enough mystical tools for everyone. They wonât be able to endure the pain for the next ten
days to half a month!â Steven, who had just dealt with the two masters, could barely maintain his smile
when he heard Andrewâs words.
He gave him a warning look. âShut up.â
Dissatisfied, Andrew said, âDad, you never cared about us before. So, why do you care now? Simone
is your daughter, but so are Titus and Jo. If she can be so ruthless toward Titus and Jo now, who
knows if she will target you and Mom in the future?! I think itâs only fair for us to retaliate and let her
face some consequences for her actions. After all, it wonât cause any physical harm. Simone wonât be
aware of your kindness, let alone appreciate it.â
Steven was at a loss for words. Suddenly, he realized that he had neglected his role as a father all
these years.
I hadnât truly taken care of my son or daughter.
In the past, it was because I was busy with work. Later, as they grew up, I assumed they were adults
with their own lives.
But now, I understand that I was mistaken.
I canât believe my son has been led astray like this!
Emaged, Steven reprimanded, âJodie is your sister, but isnât Simone too?â Due to spending less time at
home before, he truly wasnât aware that his sons would go to such lengths to support his adoptive
daughter.
Andrew said, âShe is also my sister, but this whole thing started because of her. The one at fault should
face the consequences, shouldnât they?â If Simone hadnât inflicted negative energy on Titus and Jo,
things wouldnât have escalated like this. Since itâs Simoneâs fault, she should face the consequences
herself.
Itâs just a little pain and wonât harm Simone anyway. Why is Dad being so stubborn?
Realizing that he couldnât communicate with Andrew at this rate, Steven said, âTitus isnât worried, so
why should you?â Before Andrew could respond, Titus chimed in, âNeither Harold nor I want to break.
Andrew, being jumpy like this makes you look like a clown.â
If Harold hadnât urged me to look just now, I wouldnât have noticed that Jodie is so scheming and has
plenty of petty tricks up her sleeve.
wants to break the spell, she should come forward herself. Instead, she asks Andrew to take the fall
because sheâs afraid of upsetting Dad. Sheâs quite something.
At the same time, Titus felt somewhat embarrassed, as seeing Andrew like this reminded him. of his
past.
Back then, Jodie had also used similar tactics on me to attack Simone multiple times.
How embarrassing! Now that I think about it, it was extremely embarrassing.
Master Shane was annoyed. I havenât achieved my goal today, and I even got injured by Simoneâs
retaliation.
Hence, he looked at Titus and Harold, asking, âAre you sure you wonât resolve the spell?â âIâm leaving
Callington tomorrow, so I wonât be able to help you if you change your mind and want to resolve it.â
Titus and Harold exchanged a glance. âThank you, Master Shane. We wonât resolve it.â
Suddenly, Master Gordon spoke from the side, âMy mystical tool is a gift from my mentor, so I canât let
you take it home. Please return it to me.â
In other words, he intended to force them to choose to resolve the spell.
Meanwhile, in the studio, Gwen said to Simone, âSimone, for some reason, I feel like somethingâs off
with those two old men. Itâs like they really want to force them to break the spell. Such control freaks!â
Simone nodded and said. âThey must be targeting me.â
Squinting her eyes, she continued. âSince thatâs the case. Iâll let them make their own choice. I
