Chapter 373 She Will Be the One to Expose It Now
After an unknown period, Jodie came out of the room.
Her hair, which initially turned gray, had returned to its jet-black color, and her skin had regained its fair complexion.
The wrinkles around her eyes disappeared, and the freckles on her hands vanished.
She
got rid of her previous despair and wore an even brighter smile on her face.
Meanwhile, inside the room, the old man appeared even older and more exhausted.
I should have chosen Tina instead of Jodie in the first place, but that stubborn girl grew rebellious. Moreover, she always has her own principles. That doesn’t align with my requirements.
In fact, she behaves nothing like my offspring.
Hmph! Tina will face the same consequences as Jane once she becomes worthless.
Shortly after, he drew a talisman and pasted it on Jane’s back before concealing it with clothes.
Next, he carved a wooden puppet that resembled her.
Then, he took strands of her hair and drops of her blood. He bound them onto the and cast a substitution spell.
After a while, Jane walked out with a somewhat vacant look in her eyes.
“Send her back and make sure no one notices,” the old man commanded.
Upon receiving the order, the man outside nodded and replied, “Yes, Sir.”
Then, he escorted Jane away.
On the other side, Simone arrived at Cebros Airport.
Zac came to pick her up in his car.
After spotting Simone’s figure, he walked over to assist her with her luggage.

Upon noticing that her complexion was somewhat oddly pale, he couldn’t help but express his concern. “Simone, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell? You don’t look too good.”

Zac can tell something is amiss just by looking at my complexion.
Hence, she flashed him a smile and replied, “I didn’t sleep well last night, so I’m not feeling great today. I just need to go home and get some rest.”
That old brute is indeed mighty.
His previous attack had also injured me a little.
Zac nodded. “Alright. I’ll take you home.”
Once they arrived at the apartment where Simone lived, Zac handed her a wrapped box from the backseat.
“I heard that the president and vice president of the geomancy association are interested in items like these and secretly collect them. I happened to come across one, and I thought you might need it. So, I brought it for you.”
Simone didn’t refuse his kindness and accepted the box.
“Thank you. That’s very thoughtful of you.”
She planned to open it and see what it contained after she got inside her place.
With concern written all over his eyes, Zac said, “Rest well when you get back, and we’ll stay
in touch.”
“Okay!” Simone nodded, exited the car, and returned to her apartment.
As Gwen had gone on a vacation trip, she wasn’t home.
Simone took a shower first before opening the package.
Inside the package was an exquisite wooden box
Then, she opened the wooden box and discovered a palm-sized green stone inside.
She was a little surprised when she saw this stone.
As she reached out to pick it up, a wave of energy emanated from it.
It’s actually an essence stone. This is a rare find. It can only be formed in the lode, and the chances are extremely slim. Geomancy and mystical arts practitioners can use it to cultivate and enhance their cultivation power. Moreover, with this essence stone, I can break into the Divine State today.
