Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 2430

2430 /2430

Though some viewers still felt it was unfair to Juniper and Eddie, thinking Shannon was playing favorites, the people involved accepted it without issue.

The audience might not know, but they knew well enough that Kai was a genuine dragon, forged through the trials of the heavenly lightning. Ordinary spirits naturally fled at his presence.

This episode's case clearly had deeper secrets, so Shannon had to hide Kai's energy from the start to prevent whatever was behind the scenes from sensing and hiding itself.

Of course, if it did hide, she had other means to deal with it. But that would be troublesome and blunt, wouldn't it?

Perhaps to test Shannon's statement, that very evening, the guest and the Callaghans shared dinner.

Caitlin, who had only peeked from the stairway earlier, finally appeared. Unlike the sharp, probing gaze Shanon caught on the stairs, she now seemed like a normal five-year-old child—innocent, naive, and well-behaved.

It was clear that Vance and Laura loved their daughter deeply, but just as clear was the subtle caution in the way they treated her, like they were walking on eggshells around her.

Naturally, the internet wasted no time letting their imaginations run wild.

"Something's off with the way they treat that kid… What if all the weird stuff happening in the villa is tied to her?"

"It's possible. They say children's eyes are the purest, but that purity can attract impure things."

"Didn't Juniper say the Callaghans' troubles kept coming back, like some kind of curse? Maybe the kid has some kind of negative-attracting constitution that draws spirits in…"

One thing was for sure—the viewers of the show had leveled up greatly over the last two years.

Back then, most of the chat was just a chorus of wows and gasps. Now, they had grown up just like the cast, becoming much more "professionally superstitious".

That night, Shannon and Olivia got ready to sleep after washing up.

According to the show's usual live broadcast rules, the stream would be cut during sleeping hours. Right as the clock struck midnight, however, a strange wave of ghastly energy pulsed through the villa.

A loud boom followed the next second, as if the entire premise had shuddered violently.

Shannon sat bolt upright in bed the moment she sensed something was wrong. In a flash, she threw on a robe and turned to Olivia. "Stay here and don't open the door."

She quickly drew a talisman and sealed the room with a few practiced motions, barely taking more than a few seconds.
