Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1061

Sonia had no illusions about marrying Bradley through the child, but she thought it might serve as a bargaining chip to get 200 thousand dollars.

Shannon got up to leave after seeing she'd made up her mind. She came here with Benjamin to follow a lead on the demon, and she'd offered Sonia help after seeing how pitiful the latter was.

It was a pity different from what Shannon had felt for Ziva, but they were strangely similar.

Ziva had broken free from her shackles but had chosen to delve deeper into a path of obsession. She'd even used her power of words to act recklessly.

Though Sonia had resorted to unscrupulous methods to achieve her goals, Shannon couldn't see her as truly evil. Perhaps the former might turn out on a different path if given the same chance Ziva had to break free from her cage.

Before leaving, Shannon handed Sonia a talisman. "Keep this with you. It'll protect you from malevolent spirits."

Even if Sonia succeeded in changing her name, her birthdate and astrological house on the marriage contract might attract lingering spirits.

Sonia's eyes welled with tears as she held the talisman. Shannon, who she'd just met, was willing to go out of her way to help her, but her family who should love her most never stopped plotting against her.

As Sonia carefully tucked the talisman away, she suddenly thought of something and asked, "If I manage to change my name, the marriage contract bears Janel's name. Could the spirits end up targeting Janel instead?"

Her expression was unreadable as she asked this. Shannon gave her a long meaningful look and replied, "That might be possible."

Then, she pulled out another talisman. "You could buy another talisman for Janel, but I'll have to charge you for that."
