Chapter 324 We Should Go Find Simone
Upon hearing their words, Andrew, who had originally harbored hope, felt even more devastated. “Grandfather, I know I was wrong.” He now truly understood that his foster sister was not only unreliable but also harmful. Although his younger sister had a tough exterior, she was more dependable. He deeply regretted his actions.
Owen let out a sigh. “What’s the use of knowing you were wrong? It’s already too late.” He then looked at the two masters. “Masters, if it can’t be directly resolved, can you help suppress his misfortune? For example, drawing talismans or using some mystical tools?” They couldn’t just ignore this foolish grandson, even if they were angry with him.
Both masters were in a difficult position. “We don’t have the ability to suppress it by drawing talismans. For this matter, you’ll have to find Master Shawn. As for mystical tools, as long as you find a mystical tool nurtured by the natural auspicious energy, it can help suppress his misfortune for a while, but we are powerless in this regard and cannot lend it.”
They had one or two of these mystical tools, but it was impossible to lend them out. Even if they were offered a high reward, it was still impossible.
Owen understood their meaning. “May we borrow this thing from other masters in the geomancy association? We are willing to pay a high reward.”
The master in the religious robe shook his head. “No master will be willing to lend this thing.”
The master in plain clothes suggested, “Master Shawn has quite a few of these things. Why don’t you ask him?”
Owen smiled bitterly. “He won’t lend it.” He would already help with drawing talismans or borrowing tools before if he wanted to, and he knew that Bailey didn’t like his grandson. If it weren’t for Simone’s involvement, he would not bother with them.
Both masters expressed that they had no other options, and Owen had no choice but to send the two masters back to the city and then find the person in charge to make a fuss. He claimed that if the geomancy association didn’t take action, he would not only report to the special department but also sue the top management.
He would also sue the geomancy association, accusing them of sheltering Jodie and her geomancy master. Owen believed that since Simone had suggested this, there must be some reason behind it. The person in charge was driven to the point of helplessness and could only take the initiative to contact the higher-ups.
Finally, they discussed at the management level and had the person in charge lend out a natural nurturing tool stored by the geomancy association. So, the person in charge took something and went to the hospital with the old man. When they arrived at the hospital, Andrew had another stroke of bad luck

Chapter 324 We Should Go Find Simone
After the surgery, he couldn’t drink water, but he accidentally choked on his saliva, almost suffocating, which accidentally led to pulling at the wound and causing excruciating pain.
Seeing him in such a miserable state, the person in charge understood that he really needed a magical tool to temporarily suppress the situation. He handed a smooth, colorful stone to Owen. “This stone can help with the suppression. His condition is not only affected by bad luck but also by the loss of luck, so it’s quite serious. One magical tool has limited suppression effects. It can only prevent his misfortune from doubling due to the backlash, but it can’t stop it completely. It would be best if you could find another magical tool to try dual suppression. This way, he can temporarily avoid being so unlucky.”
He had to be frank about the situation; otherwise, relying on just this one tool wouldn’t be enough to suppress it, causing more trouble. Then, he emphasized, “Lending out this magical tool is already the bottom line for our geomancy association. You’ll have to find a way to get another magical tool yourself.” And then he reassured them again, “Rest assured, we will investigate Jodie Gray and the geomancy master who helped her.”
They had to investigate thoroughly; considering today’s situation, the Gray Family definitely wouldn’t back down.
Only then did Owen stop causing trouble and politely sent the person in charge away.
Alice placed the colorful stone in a small pouch and put it on Andrew. With the pouch on, Andrew did feel a bit more comfortable, but the misfortune continued. As the
person in charge said, his misfortune was too severe, and one magical tool couldn’t suppress it at all.
Owen couldn’t do anything, so he had to use his connections to borrow from others, but he couldn’t find one.
Time passed, and it was already evening when Steven and Salma rushed to the hospital. Steven felt guilty for his elderly father, who had been running around all day. “Dad, Mom, you’ve worked hard today.”
Owen didn’t have a good expression on his face. “It’s all because of you. After we return to the capital, you
and your wife will kneel in the family ancestral hall for three days.”
This statement made Steven and Salma’s faces change. Kneeling in the ancestral hall was a punishment for committing a serious offense, not to mention how uncomfortable it would be to kneel for three days; the main issue was embarrassment.
But since Owen had spoken, they didn’t dare to refuse. “Yes!”
Just then, Andrew, who was finally able to eat, choked on something and couldn’t help but cough violently, once again almost being sent away due to the pain. After recovering, he weakly gasped for breath. Grandpa, Dad, Mom, I really can’t take it anymore. If this continues, it would be better to just die.”

This was simply inhumane torture.
He was already in so much pain that he couldn’t bear to live or die, and every hour, he would inexplicably have bad luck, aggravating his wounds even more. At this point, he felt that being alive was more painful than death. As a result, his resentment towards Jodie reached new heights. She had truly ruined him.
Steven and Salma were heartbroken when they saw their son like this. “You can’t take it, and we can’t do anything about it.”
Steven sighed. “Tomorrow, I’ll try to find more people and see if we can find a way to borrow another mystical tool. Your situation is more complicated, and you need a tool that is nurtured by the natural auspicious energy. Not only is it difficult to come across, it’s also extremely difficult to borrow.”
