Chapter 20

The Heiress’ Return & Revenge Chapter 20 Is She Joking? Simone and the others heard the

notifications and opened the chat group. When they saw Zac’s messages, they burst into laughter. Eric

and Keira shared the same thought. “He’s not just a cheeky young master. He’s deliberately provoking

the other team and hitting them where it hurts. That’s cheeky, but as his teammates, we find it

satisfying. I can only imagine how irritated Aaron must be,” they said. Smiling at Zac, Simone

remarked, “Well done. He really gets under Aaron’s skin because he doesn’t like him. Good job.” Zac

raised his head smugly. “I know.” After enjoying themselves, Deuce took Simone and her team to the

apple orchard. There were other helpers there as well. Upon arriving. Deuce gave Simone and her

teammates a pair of gloves each and said, “Help us pick the fruits.” Simone and her team put on the

gloves and replied. “Sure.” They donned their straw hats and joined the other helpers in harvesting the

apples.

Eric, Zac, and Keira started with great interest, but as time passed, their arms grew sore, their necks

stiffened from constantly looking up, and their backs and legs began to ache from standing for too long.

On top of that, the scorching sun was shining down on them. Keira sighed. “Thank goodness Simone

made these straw hats, or our faces would be burned.” Eric and Zac agreed. “We’re lucky to have

Simone.” Despite being guys, as celebrities, they had to take care of their faces. They had to admit that

Simone was meticulous. As they harvested the apples, they chatted. Simone’s teammates had never

done this kind of work before, especially under the scorching sun. If they weren’t live streaming, they

might have given up. However, they saw Simone smiling and happily picking the apples, and they

thought, “We can’t let her down.” So, they gritted their teeth and persevered. A while later, Deuce

returned from the concession stand with a few bottles of mineral water and gave them to Simone and

her team. Simone accepted the water and looked at Deuce. “Thanks.” It was then she noticed that

Deuce’s philtrum was getting darker, as was the area around his mouth. She asked, “Where’s your

son?” Deuce smiled. “He ran out first thing this morning.” His son was only seven years old, so he

couldn’t help out. He was still at an energetic age, running around the village freely. Simone frowned. “I

know physiognomy, and I think your son might be in danger.” Deuce froze. ‘What kind of danger?’ he

wondered. “This pretty celebrity knows physiognomy?

Is she serious?’ Simone examined the darkening area around his mouth and confirmed her suspicions.

“From what 1 can see, he might drown.” She quickly made a prediction and ran towards the orchard’s

entrance. “Hurry! We don’t have much time.” Everyone was taken aback by Simone’s sudden sprint.

Zac put his apples in the basket and said, “We’ll 1/3 check it out too.” He followed Simone. At first,

Deuce didn’t believe it, but for some reason, he panicked and followed the two of them. Everyone else

and the cameraman also joined. ‘Simone knows physiognomy?’ ‘Sounds like nonsense to me. Is she

joking?’ ‘She didn’t even ask where Deuce’s kid went. Can she really find him running around like that?’

‘I think she’s just trying to get attention. ‘If it’s fake, then she just cursed that guy’s kid.’ ‘That’s too

much. I’m blocking her. ‘No one ever said she knew physiognomy. I think it’s fake. ‘Let’s wait and see.”

Everyone stared at the screen without blinking.

Even viewers from other livestreams came over to watch after hearing about the situation. Aaron and

Leon’s fans mocked Simone, not believing her at all. They flooded the chatroom with negative

comments, annoying everyone. Simone tapped into Deuce’s aura and made a prediction based on his

physiognomy, determining the general location of his son. Ten minutes later, she arrived at the dam

built to water the fields. Standing on the edge, she saw two boys swimming and playing happily in the

middle of the dam. Unbeknownst to them, danger was approaching. Their philtrums were getting

darker, a sign that they would soon die. Simone quickly took off her hat and gloves, tossing them onto

the ground. Then, she removed her shoes, leaped into the water, and swam towards the boys. The

people who followed her found this strange. The viewers thought the same.. “What is she trying to do?

Play around?” “Yeah, it’s not safe to swim in a dam, but Deuce’s son is fine, right?” “I’m impressed.

Simone is making it look real.” “The kids are fine, but why is she jumping in to save them?” “Is she

trying to get more attention? This seems desperate.” “I’m speechless. Jumping in just to save them

seems unnecessary.” When Deuce saw his son in the water, he sighed with relief but shouted, “Get

back up here, you brat!” Deuce’s son looked at him and instead of swimming back up, he went further

away. “No. I want to stay here longer.” 2/3 His cousin followed suit.

Zac noticed Simone still swimming towards the kids. He had only known her for a few days, but he

thought she was a woman who knew what she was doing. Seeing the boys swimming further away, he

also took off his hat and gloves, tossing them onto the ground. Then, he kicked off his shoes, leaped

into the water, and swam towards the kids. The people on the shore were stunned by his actions.

“What is he trying to do?” The viewers had the same question. “What’s Zac doing?” “He didn’t have to

get into the water. Just let the kids come back on their own.” “They think they’re helping, but they’re

actually hindering.” “The kids swam further away after they arrived.” “Simone is desperate for fame. Of

course, she came up with this to get more attention, but why did Zac do this?” “Maybe he’s mad too?”

However, a tragic incident occurred. Suddenly, the water from the dam surged forward with the force of

rampaging horses. Enormous waves crashed over the surface, pulling the startled boys beneath the

water. Keira gasped. “The water has dragged them under!” Deuce’s expression turned horrified. “Oh

no! Who opened the gates?” He was familiar with this scenario, as it would happen every time they

needed to irrigate the fields. Deuce could only watch helplessly as the water carried his son towards

the gates, causing his legs to give way. Situated on the hill, the dam stood nearly 100 feet above the

fields. However, what was more concerning was the powerful rush of water that would occur whenever

the gates were opened.

Once the children were pulled into the undercurrent, their chances of survival were uncertain. Deuce

was on the verge of diving into the water to save his son, but his companions held him back. “Stay

calm, the two of them are already reaching the kids.” “Yes, it’s too late for you to jump in. You might

even impede their rescue efforts.”
