Chapter 128 It Shouldn’t Be Like This!
Steven refused to let his son drip his blood onto the compass just so the two geomancy masters could deal with his biological daughter.
He turned to Master Shane and asked, “Master Shane, can you sell us two mystical tools?” Master Shane was surprised as he hadn’t expected this to be the final outcome after hours.
What was the point of my previous actions then? Moreover, I came here today to obtain the Gray brothers’ blood and use it against Simone.
He sighed. “This mystical tool was passed down to Gordon by our master, so I don’t have it. In addition, our sect has regulations prohibiting the lending or selling of inherited items. So, Mr. Gray, I apologize if I have offended you!” Steven didn’t insist. “It was presumptuous of
No problem. I can always ask the other geomancy masters if I can borrow or purchase one for Titus to
use.
Seeing that his plan wasn’t working, Master Shane suggested. “If you want to alleviate their pain, it’s best to resolve the spell by dripping blood. Don’t worry; I definitely won’t harm the one who cast this spell.”
He added. “Once the retaliated pain from the negative energy subsides, its effect will weaken, and the other party will recover in a few days. It won’t cause any harm to the body.”
Steven quickly grasped the key point. “So, you’re saying that my son will only experience pain but won’t be physically harmed after getting cursed by the negative energy?” His question surprised Master Shane.
Initially, he didn’t intend to speak the truth. However, he feared Steven would worry about Simone and become even less willing to resolve the spell.
After thinking for a moment, he decided to be honest. “Yes, this is a type of negative energy that resembles punishment. It will cause pain, but it won’t harm the body. In fact, such pain isn’t physical pain but more like the concept of phantom pain.”
Then, he emphasized. “So, the retaliation won’t harm the body either.”
Of course, what I’m saying is partially true and partially false.
Generally speaking, retaliation will indeed cause pain to Simone, but it won’t cause much harm to her body.
But I will further use Mr. Titus blooil to cast a spell
Then, I will use blood to nourish the spell. When the time is right, Simone will be severely injured.
Steven could tell that Master Shane was telling the truth. Since the negative energy on Titus’ body isn’t harming him, that means Simone is still not so heartless as to harm her biological brother’s health.
Therefore, he let go of his worries. “As long as it doesn’t harm their bodies, it’s fine for them to suffer for a few days.”
I have doubts about these two masters, so I certainly won’t let Titus offer his blood.
Besides, I don’t know if Master Shane is being truthful when he said the retaliation would pose no harm to Simone.
And even if it’s not happening now, will they use Titus blood for something else in the future? Master Shane and Master Gordon were speechless. It shouldn’t be like this! Mr. Gray should have agreed to let us resolve the spell after hearing that it wouldn’t harm Simone’s body!
Titus wasn’t surprised that his biological father would make this choice.
After all, blood is thicker than water. A family is still a family, no matter how much we quarrel.
Outsiders have no right to interfere in our family affairs.
Growing up. Dad was busy with work, so he allowed us siblings to do as we pleased.
Even though he wouldn’t meddle or interfere in our lives, he would prohibit us from doing as we pleased regarding important matters.
Jodie didn’t expect her adopted father to be so biased.
He doesn’t even care about his son in order to protect Simone from harm.
I, on the other hand, have been the Gray Family’s adopted daughter for over a decade. Even if I’m not close to him, there should still be some affection.
Yet, I can’t believe he would be so indifferent.
Since he didn’t care about us before, why is he interfering now? Somehow, I regret following Titus to the Gray Group today.
Tshould have encouraged Titus to ask the two masters to treat us at the Gray Residence.
That way, Steven won’t be there to interfere in this matter.
Refusing to give up, Master Shane looked at Steven and said, “But Gordon and I no longer have any mystical tools to alleviate their pain.
At the same time, he silently cursed Master Gordon for being foolish and lending out the mystical tool to alleviate their pain.
Steven smiled gently. “It’s alright. Let them learn a lesson. Master Shane, Master Gordon, thank you for your help today.”
He settled the matter and handed them two checks as compensation for their hard work today.
The three of them stood and talked.
Unwilling to accept this outcome, Jodie tugged on Andrew’s sleeve again when she saw Steven with his back turned to them.
Harold noticed this movement and immediately nudged Titus, signaling him to look.
Titus looked over and saw Andrew turn his head while Jodic mouthed to him with her eyes reddened in tears and face as pale as a white sheet. “Andrew, I’m in so much pain.”
Feeling extremely heartbroken, Andrew reached out and touched her head.
Then, he turned back and walked to Steven’s side, whispering, “Dad, why give up when there’s a way to break this curse? Titus and Jo are still in pain. How can they continue with. their work like this? Plus, there aren’t enough mystical tools for everyone. They won’t be able to endure the pain for the next ten days to half a month!” Steven, who had just dealt with the two masters, could barely maintain his smile when he heard Andrew’s words.
He gave him a warning look. “Shut up.”
Dissatisfied, Andrew said, “Dad, you never cared about us before. So, why do you care now? Simone is your daughter, but so are Titus and Jo. If she can be so ruthless toward Titus and Jo now, who knows if she will target you and Mom in the future?! I think it’s only fair for us to retaliate and let her face some consequences for her actions. After all, it won’t cause any physical harm. Simone won’t be aware of your kindness, let alone appreciate it.”
Steven was at a loss for words. Suddenly, he realized that he had neglected his role as a father all these years.
I hadn’t truly taken care of my son or daughter.
In the past, it was because I was busy with work. Later, as they grew up, I assumed they were adults with their own lives.
But now, I understand that I was mistaken.
I can’t believe my son has been led astray like this!
Emaged, Steven reprimanded, “Jodie is your sister, but isn’t Simone too?” Due to spending less time at home before, he truly wasn’t aware that his sons would go to such lengths to support his adoptive daughter.
Andrew said, “She is also my sister, but this whole thing started because of her. The one at fault should face the consequences, shouldn’t they?” If Simone hadn’t inflicted negative energy on Titus and Jo, things wouldn’t have escalated like this. Since it’s Simone’s fault, she should face the consequences herself.
It’s just a little pain and won’t harm Simone anyway. Why is Dad being so stubborn?
Realizing that he couldn’t communicate with Andrew at this rate, Steven said, “Titus isn’t worried, so why should you?” Before Andrew could respond, Titus chimed in, “Neither Harold nor I want to break. Andrew, being jumpy like this makes you look like a clown.”
If Harold hadn’t urged me to look just now, I wouldn’t have noticed that Jodie is so scheming and has plenty of petty tricks up her sleeve.
wants to break the spell, she should come forward herself. Instead, she asks Andrew to take the fall because she’s afraid of upsetting Dad. She’s quite something.
At the same time, Titus felt somewhat embarrassed, as seeing Andrew like this reminded him. of his
past.
Back then, Jodie had also used similar tactics on me to attack Simone multiple times.
How embarrassing! Now that I think about it, it was extremely embarrassing.
Master Shane was annoyed. I haven’t achieved my goal today, and I even got injured by Simone’s retaliation.
Hence, he looked at Titus and Harold, asking, “Are you sure you won’t resolve the spell?” “I’m leaving Callington tomorrow, so I won’t be able to help you if you change your mind and want to resolve it.”
Titus and Harold exchanged a glance. “Thank you, Master Shane. We won’t resolve it.”
Suddenly, Master Gordon spoke from the side, “My mystical tool is a gift from my mentor, so I can’t let you take it home. Please return it to me.”
In other words, he intended to force them to choose to resolve the spell.
Meanwhile, in the studio, Gwen said to Simone, “Simone, for some reason, I feel like something’s off with those two old men. It’s like they really want to force them to break the spell. Such control freaks!” Simone nodded and said. “They must be targeting me.”
Squinting her eyes, she continued. “Since that’s the case. I’ll let them make their own choice. I
