Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1095

Things continued that way for a few more times. Once she finished her third glass of water, preparing to yell again, she felt the chilling presence finally vanish.

She waited for another while, and there were no longer thuds on her door.

After confirming the other party had left, Olivia heaved in relief. She was ready to rest on the chair when another series of knocks sounded again.

Instantly, Olivia shot up like a spring and cursed at the door, "You little bitch! I'm gonna pull out your nails and—"

The door knocks stopped, followed by a stoic male voice. "Olivia, it's me, Skylar."

Her eyes widened in surprise. Once she regained her composure, she reflexively went to open the door, though her rationality stopped her.

"H-How are you going to prove you're not the ghost?"

Outside the door, Skylar stayed quiet for a moment before chanting, "O' heaven and earth, heed my call. All ill intents, rout the abyss…"

The deep male voice carried a familiar, righteous tone—the same as the one she had heard all night. More importantly, no ghost would ever chant the Golden Decree.

Without waiting for him to finish, she slid to the entrance and opened the door. When she confirmed it was Skylar standing before her, she lunged into his embrace with reddened eyes and a choked voice.

"Skylar! What took you so long?" Her demeanor shifted drastically from when she lashed out at the ghost earlier.

The sudden embrace made Skylar freeze, his hands instinctively raised but unable to move. Even his usually sharp and stern brows betrayed a clear crack in his composure.

Luckily, Olivia released him a second later. She wiped away the tears from her reddened eyes, her fear unmissable.
