Son-In-Law Gets an Upgrade novel Chapter 115

Chapter 115 Leave of Absence 

Alex had already calmed down when he pulled up at the traffic lights

He opened the car window and had just lit a cigarette when his phone rang

Alex didn’t answer right away. He took a drag on his cigarette before taking out his phone to see who was calling

Mr. Jefferson, something’s cropped up at home. I need to go back and take a look!Jessica’s anxious voice was heard as soon as the call connected

What happened?” 

Jessica hesitated for a moment before replying, My house is hauntedMy mom has been possessed by a ghost” 

Haunted?Alex sounded surprised

Are there really ghosts in this world

Yes. It’s not the first time my house has been haunted. It was only after a priest had done a ritual that it became better,Jessica answered

Okay, I’m reaching the office in a minute. Come out, I’ll go with you,Alex said

The theory of ghosts, demons and evil spirits had a certain relationship with the art of geomancy

Although he had never encountered ghosts or other demonic beings, he was skilled in geomancy and should be able to figure out what was going on

The ancient book, Nine Heaven Scrolls, was too comprehensive

It covered and contained everything, from martial arts practice to alchemy, to geomancy, and so on. It was simply allencompassing and allembracing

He had been busy studying during this period of time. Although he had yet to apply his geomancy skills, he believed that he could make a name for himself if a ghost were really found in Jessica’s house

Jessica agreed, thinking Alex wanted to follow because he was afraid of her telling lies

She thought she could use the extra brain to figure out the situation as well

Jessica was already waiting at the entrance in her A6 when Alex arrived

Alex had her lead the way, and he followed after her

Jessica’s home in as a twostory rural housing building with a courtyard of over two hundred square feet

When the two arrived, the courtyard was being surrounded by villagers. Some villagers had even got on their knees and were praying at the side

Upon seeing Jessica return, a middleaged woman stepped forward and said, You’re finally back, Jessica. Your mother has been possessed by that thing again. Hurry up and ask the master of the Desecrated Court to come and do something about her.” 

How’s my mom, Aunt Wendy?Jessica asked worriedly

No one dares to go in and take a look. You know, it’s bad luck to go in at this timeWendy trailed off

Why don’t I go in with you first?Alex suggested

Although he had never encountered such a thing, he thought it shouldn’t be too difficult to solve

Forget it. Let’s just ask Mr. Miller of the Desecrated Court,” Jessica suggested

Seeing that Jessica was disbelieving, Alex didn’t insist on it. He nodded and said, I’ll take you there. My car is faster.”
