Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1174

Fingen was struck dead by a bolt of lightning as he stepped out of the courthouse.

He smugly decided to return home and teach his wife a lesson, but a sudden bolt of lightning descended under the clear sky and struck him with pinpoint accuracy.

Fingen was instantly charred to death on the spot, and the lawyer who'd defended him was pale with terror.

What went around came around indeed. Good and evil would be repaid, and it was just a matter of time.

Fingen's crimes including beating his mother to death and attempting to evade punishment were so heinous that even the heavens couldn't take it any longer.

When Myla mentioned the heavens, Shannon's eyes flickered. Her thoughts turned to the Divine Power, who'd created the Malignant System. It seemed that the Divine Power had a penchant for smiting people with lightning.

But to be so decisive about punishing the evil didn't seem like something the Divine Power would do.

Shannon dismissed the thought and took out her phone to search. A man struck by lightning for killing his mother was a sensational incident, so the media surely would've covered it.

Indeed, she found news reports about Fingen being struck by lightning. The articles detailed his crimes, and the comment section was filled with applause and satisfaction.

Some commenters decided to be better people and treat their elderly better.

While Shannon attentively read the news, Mike glanced over at her screen. He saw the headlines, and his eyes widened in shock. He slammed the table and shot to his feet.

"I knew it! That's how you managed to dig up so much of his backstory in such a short time. You cheated!" It was no wonder their team had won so easily since they had news articles covering the incident.

Myla hadn't expected the news to be dug out in such a short time. Her face flushed, but she tried to defend herself. "Though the news helped, we uncovered the initial incidents like the dog attack and the beating of the owner."

After confirming Fingen's identity, they found more details online reverified with the victims of the incident. Unfortunately, those involved ended up in an equally sorry state.

For example, Fingen's wife thought she could finally start anew after his death, but Fingen returned as an evil spirit. She became his first victim and had her soul devoured.
