Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1070

"You can surely eat," Kai complained.

Shannon turned to glance at him. She figured that when it came to eating, Kai should be the least qualified to complain.

From what she knew, Julian had even set up a dedicated snack cabinet for him ever since he moved into the Cooper residence. The Cooper residence had never had any junk food before his arrival.

Sensing Shannon's gaze, Kai raised an eyebrow and leaned in to ask. "How did you figure out that his human form wasn't a child?" He hadn't picked up on it.

Shannon explained, "Because Sonia and the others who bought the medication described him as an adult male."

Though mini demons could transform into other human forms through supernatural energy, they consumed energy and often gave away clues in behavior.

For example, juvenile demons like Kai spent most of their time gaming, snacking, and dreaming about evolving into a dragon. They wouldn't fret over humans having babies like the Fenris jerboa.

After briefly explaining to Kai, Shannon turned her attention back to the Fenris jerboa. "You need to pay for the food you ate, but that's not what we're really concerned about."

She gestured to the box of chocolate behind him and continued, "I know you mixed sylphdeer's fur into the chocolate and sold it to humans. Why would you do that?"

The Fenris jerboa tensed. He hadn't expected this to be the reason for his capture. "Are you with the Demon Control Agency?" he asked.

"No, but they've issued a mission because your actions have disrupted the normal rhythm of human reproduction."

After taking on the mission, Shannon had researched the women who were expecting multiples. Some of them were fated to have children.

For example, one woman carrying triplets was destined to have three children, but only one at a time across several pregnancies.
