Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1228

"Is there anything you want to tell me, Benjamin?" Shannon didn't question what had happened to him.

Her instincts told her he would stay secretive even if she asked, just like before. She knew there were secrets about him; he wouldn't tell her, and neither did she want to bug him with constant questions.

She also wouldn't use the truth talisman on her friends, as everyone had matters they wished to keep to themselves. Truthfully, she didn't care about his secrets—no, she had been curious, but she was more concerned about his well-being now.

Benjamin was met with her clear, limpid eyes, which reflected his own image. He seemed to know what she was thinking. "You can see my face clearly now, can't you?"

Shannon nodded. He asked, "Do I look good?"

Dazed, she gave it some thought and nodded, agreeing with the simple truth that he was good-looking.

He smirked, and after a pause, he lowered his gaze and said, "I can't tell you much about my golden light for now."

He had intended to let her in on the truth, but after the incident with the Divine Power, he knew he had to be cautious. Some things were better left unknown for now.

"All I can tell you is I'll be fine. Even if I lose my golden light, I'll still be me." His tone was solemn and firm, causing Shannon to furrow her brows.

She was ready to say something when he changed the topic. "Aside from this, there's something else I want to tell you today."

She looked at him, slowly drowning in his deep, pitless gaze. There was an emotion she couldn't quite decipher; it was faint yet deep.
