The Heiress’ Return & Revenge

Chapter 323 After All the Twists and Turns, the Younger Sister

Is the Most Reliable

Sitting in the car on the way back, Simone asked Bailey, “Do association will punish Jodie after their

investigation?”

Bailey glanced at her and replied, “I can’t say for sure. Since she is not a geomancer herself, she

shouldn’t receive severe punishment. It depends on whether they can find the geomancer who assisted

her. That person will face heavy penalties.”

Simone smiled and asked again, “Do you think they can uncover the person behind her?”

Bailey countered, “What do you think? Can they uncover it?”

Simone replied, “There are two possibilities. If someone wants to protect Jodie Gray, they will find a

scapegoat to take the blame. This way, the responsibility can be shifted to the scapegoat, helping Jodie

escape punishment. But if they want to completely abandon her, then they won’t be able to uncover

that person.” In that case, Jodie would not fare well and would have to bear all the consequences, likely

ending up in prison.

She looked at him and asked, “Which possibility do you think it is?” It seemed unlikely that they could

expose Jodie’s biological father through this incident, but it was still necessary to give it a try to see

how deep it went.

Bailey replied, “I think the first possibility is more likely. After all, I can still see traces of luck on Jodie

Gray. Her fate is also peculiar, with many people connected to her.” He looked at her meaningfully and

added, “If she is finished, it may not be advantageous for you.”

Simone understood what he meant. “Because our fortunes are intertwined, right? Are you suggesting

that we need to continuously weaken her luck for it to be beneficial to me? Is that the only way to break

the curse between me and her?” Is he reminding or misleading me? Simone felt it was more like the

former. After all, she had doubts and suspicions about this before. The importance of the person behind

Jodie should be even higher than that of Skylar, the medium.

To completely suppress Jodie, it was necessary to continuously weaken her luck; only when it was

weakened to the point of no return could it be broken.

After experiencing this incident, as long as Bailey resolved it forcefully, Jodie’s luck could be weakened

by half and it will be much easier to weaken the remaining half compared to before.

Bailey smiled and said, “You are very clever.” He looked out the window, giving off an indifferent vibe,

and continued, “If you want to break the deadlock, just follow your heart.

Simone looked at him deeply. “Thank you for the reminder, Master Shawn.”

He chuckled. “You don’t need to test me. I have no connection with Jodie and don’t care about her.”

Then, he turned his head and looked at her with deep eyes. With a meaningful smile on his lips, he

said, “I’m more interested in you.”

Simone raised an eyebrow and laughed. “Is that so? Well, it’s quite a coincidence because I’m also

quite interested in you.” This person could become a key to breaking the deadlock.

They stopped discussing this topic and started chatting instead. Simone began asking him about the

practice of geomancy masters, seeking answers to some questions she still didn’t fully understand. He

didn’t pretend to know and answered each question, which gave Simone a lot more insights, so she

continued to seek his advice. Regardless of whether this senior was good or bad, friend or foe, she

would take advantage of him first.

At the hospital, Owen asked his wife to take care of their grandson before taking his son to the

geomancy association to file a complaint. The person in charge of handling such matters in the

geomancy association promised him that he would provide an explanation and also brought Jodie in for

investigation.

Then, Owen started complaining about how his grandson was suffering, asking this person to find two

masters to help him. He emphasized that this matter involved geomancy masters and witchcraft, and

the geomancy association couldn’t ignore it.

The person in charge had no choice but to invite two powerful masters from the association to

accompany him to the hospital. When they arrived at the hospital, Owen saw his grandson with a

severely swollen half face, and his face twisted in pain.

He asked, “What happened?”

Alice replied with a helpless expression, “He’s just really unlucky. Just now, a part of the bed that was

originally supported suddenly broke, and he fell onto the side table. His face hit the cabinet hard and

got swollen. After the anesthesia wore off, and with the twisting just now, he’s in a lot of pain.” She

pointed to Andrew’s leg and said, “And for some reason, it looks like got bitten by some insects. There

are many big bumps, and he says it’s very itchy. He can’t scratch himself, so he’s been asking Aaron to

help him scratch.”

Aaron was sitting by the bed, holding something to scratch the itch, helping out.

When Andrew saw his grandfather coming in, he seemed to see a savior. In a teary voice, he croaked,

“Grandpa, how did it go at the geomancy association? I’m about to lose it.”

After the anesthesia wore off, his upper body felt like it was being torn apart non-stop. After taking the

medicine, he finally felt a bit better. Little did he know that the unlucky bed had a problem and collapsed

to the side, causing him to roll down. It hurt him so much that he almost felt like he was dying. Then, his

legs broke out in a rash, causing both pain and itchiness, but he couldn’t reach to scratch them.

If this continued, he felt like he would eventually go crazy. At this moment, his resentment

towards Jodie reached a new high. He had never hated her so much before.

Owen didn’t feel sorry for his grandson’s suffering; it was all his own doing. As long as there was no

danger to his life, experiencing some hardship and suffering was a good thing. At least, he wouldn’t

make the same foolish mistakes again in the future.

He said to the two experts he had invited, “Gentlemen, please help me take a look at my grandson.”

Both men were elderly with graying hair, one dressed in religious robes and the other in coarse clothes.

The religiously-robed expert looked at Andrew and furrowed his brows, saying. “The energy on his

body is in such disarray; a lot of it has been drained by someone. No wonder he has been so unlucky.”

The expert in humble attire also took a glance and remarked, “It appears that the individual who

drained his energy has a strong connection with him. He must have willingly allowed it, so there is no

way to undo it. At least, I’m unable to undo it.”

The religious-robed expert also stated, “I am powerless in his current predicament. If we wish to

forcefully resolve it, only a master at the level of a celestial master can accomplish it. Within our entire

geomancy association, perhaps only the president, vice president, and Master Shawn can do it. The

president is in seclusion and will not emerge for a short while. The vice president is away on business,

and we are uncertain when he will return.” He inquired of the elderly man, “Are you familiar with Master

Shawn? At this point, you can only seek his assistance.”

Owen helplessly replied, “Master Bailey mentioned that he is currently busy and can only help later.”

No wonder Simone’s senior was so arrogant. It turns out that he holds such a prominent position in the

geomancy association.

However, the religious-robed expert was not surprised and emphasized, “Master Shawn is detached

and acts according to his own volition. It is already quite commendable that he agreed to help.

Typically, he would not readily take action.”

Owen had noticed Bailey’s indifference before, that he did not bother to engage with them at all. The

reason why Bailey agreed to help was probably due to Simone’s relationship with him.

He looked at Andrew and remarked, “Therefore, in the end, it is still the biological sister who is the most

dependable.”

Their family maintained a hands-off approach when it came to their children and rarely interfered in

their affairs, but they never anticipated that their son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren would treat

their own daughter/sister so harshly. Otherwise, they would have mtervened much earlier. However, by

the time they discovered it, it was already too late: they were unable to salvage the situation and lacked

the dignity to do so.
