Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1389

At first glance, the patterns seemed unremarkable. But as Shannon carefully transferred them onto paper, she couldn't shake the subtle sense of resistance that arose with each stroke, reminiscent of when she first learned to draw a talisman.

It felt as if hidden within these intricate lines, there were indeed sigils—symbols with a purpose—waiting to be uncovered.

It took three hours for her to complete drawing the entire pattern of the Emeralda Stone. Seeing the beads of sweat on her forehead, Emeralda commented, "You should take a break."

Shannon shook her head, then held the Bentrix Stone on her collar. Before long, the exhaustion she felt vanished.

Emeralda had similarly sensed the spilling spiritual energy from the Bentrix Stone. "The spiritual energy from that stone feels so special. It came from that person, right?"

Shannon knew she meant Benjamin. "It was a gift from him."

"He likes you," said Emeralda.

Shannon's heart trembled. This was the first time anyone had so blatantly stated the fact that Benjamin liked her. Neither of them had ever proclaimed their feelings for each other despite confirming their engagement.

Did Benjamin like her?

"I guess so," she thought.

Shannon nodded, looking awkward yet pretending to be calm. "Yeah."

"And you like him, too."

Shannon didn't respond this time. Deep inside in her heart, she also nodded in agreement.

Emeralda wasn't bothered by her lack of reaction, asking, "If you two like each other and are already engaged, why aren't you married yet?"
