Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 112

Hank had never felt this frustrated in his life. Beside him, Scott got the silencing talisman he wanted after transferring the money. He put two and two together when he saw the look on Hank's face and recalled Hank's bet with Shannon.

Hank clamped a hand over Scott's mouth, effectively cutting him off. "Shut up!"

Shannon looked at Hank matter-of-factly and repeated, "We had a bet. I won."

Hank looked dejected. He hated to admit it, but he'd lost. Shannon didn't waste any more time on him. She stood up and said, "Don't let me hear you say a word for the next week."

Hank's expression darkened at her words, but he still answered grumpily, "Don't you worry about that. I'm a man of my word."

Shannon nodded, looking satisfied. She left Scott's room. As she walked out, Scott and Hank heard her muttering, "I should've asked for a month."

Hank was rendered speechless, while Scott couldn't help snickering. Hank glared at him. "What's wrong with you nowadays, Scott? Why do you keep helping an outsider?"

Scott held his head high. "Who says she's an outsider? She's my cousin and yours too! If you say something like this again, I'll tell on you to Uncle Adam!"
