Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1238

As Luke rolled his sleeves up, ready to witness the potential of the girl who had impressed Benjamin, he suddenly felt a gaze locking onto him from behind, followed by an overwhelming sense of pressure.

Immediately, his initial motive was crushed into pieces. His gaze, locking with Shannon's, soon transformed from provocation to a friendly smile.

"Just kidding. We're all civilized. What are we even fighting for? I hate fighting the most," Luke said, waving in dismissal at Shannon.

She looked at him without letting her guard down, questioning, "Who are you?"

"Luke Bray," he uttered his name confidently, waiting for the girl before her to look surprised and show him respect.

To his surprise, Shannon fixed her stare on him, her face not a hint of emotional fluctuations. Instead, she solemnly asked, "From the Demon Control Agency?"

Her suspicion was justified; just earlier today, she met someone with a powerful energy field, someone she could neither deduce was a man nor a demon. Therefore, when in doubt, everyone would be categorized as a demon.

Shannon's question prompted a look of disdain on Luke, who immediately corrected her, "From the Special Security Agency!"

He pointed at himself, making a solemn introduction. "It's me, Luke Bray, the chief of the Special Security Agency!"

Once the words left his mouth, he realized he wasn't the real chief. Feeling a bit uneasy, he stole a glance at the person behind him.

Upon confirming no objection, he pretended to be calm and turned to Shannon. "Have you never heard of my name before?"

"No," Shannon answered without second thoughts.
