Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1115

Aside from the luxury bus, the Jensens had arranged for a private jet at the airport just for Shannon.

But on the day before their departure, the lecturer noted that it was an inauspicious day for flying, so the whole group had to switch to a train at the last minute.

The eight-member group boarded the train and closed their eyes to rest. The journey from Seastone to Jamborough would take hours, after all.

But just as they settled down, the peaceful atmosphere was soon interrupted by the wailing cries of a child in the compartment. "I want to play! Let me play!"

The sound came from a child nearby who had his eyes on a young lady's gamepad and insisted on having it.

The young lady, Lainey Winters, felt her head throb from the noise and was unwilling to give it up. It was something she'd bought with months of saved pocket money and had barely used it herself.

She turned to the child's parents and hoped they'd keep the child under control, but the mother simply said, "Young lady, my child wants to play with it. Could you lend it to him for a bit?

"He's very well-behaved and won't break it."

Lainey refused. "No, I bought this to keep it in my collection. I've hardly played it myself."

"Oh come on, why are you being so petty? It's just a child wanting to play. See how you've made him cry."

Lainey was indignant. "Made him cry? He's throwing a tantrum cause he can't have my stuff, and why should I hand it over? You should control your child instead of blaming me!"

"How dare you talk like that! There's nothing wrong with what my child did. It's just a stupid gamepad, and we'll buy you one if he breaks it."

Lainey lost her temper and held out her hand. "Fine, my gamepad costs 30 thousand dollars. Pay up, and he can play all he wants."

"30 thousand dollars? That's daylight robbery!"
