Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1414

On the other hand, Benjamin received Hector's call the day after Shannon's group disappeared from Antique Village.

An hour later, Hector arrived at Antique Village with Adam under the escort of personnel from the Special Security Agency.

Unlike a routine mission, Shannon had abruptly traveled to the alternate world, and her return date was uncertain.

Neither the Special Security Agency nor Benjamin could keep this a secret from the Jensens, which was why Adam and Hector rushed over.

Antique Village was under repairs, and it was common for outsiders to be around. But Adam and Hector's arrival still drew the attention of many villagers.

Adam surveyed the village's architecture and the curious villagers with a thoughtful expression.

Hector ignored the villagers entirely and headed straight for Benjamin. There was a rare display of seriousness on his face as he demanded, "Benjamin, you need to promise me that Shannon will return safely."

He understood that Shannon must have her reasons for doing this, but as family, he couldn't just sit back and wait without reassurance.

Since he couldn't contact Shannon directly, he held Benjamin accountable as the latter was her fiancé and had been present at the scene.

Adam glanced at Hector with a grave expression before addressing Benjamin, "I understand this situation isn't entirely your fault, but I hope you can understand that Shannon is very important to us."

They didn't know much about alternate worlds or mentors. All they knew was that Shannon had gone to a place beyond their reach.

Though Shannon often traveled in the past, they could always reach her and ensure she was safe. That gave them peace of mind.

But this time was different.

Benjamin stood silently for a moment before responding in a steady voice, "I promise you that she'll be back within a week."

Seven days was the timeframe he'd agreed upon with Shannon. If she didn't return by then, he'd venture into the alternate world to bring her back.

Hearing Benjamin's reassurance, Hector's expression eased a little. He and Adam didn't leave the village immediately. Instead, they stayed with Benjamin in Antique Village.

The villagers initially felt uneasy about hosting more outsiders, but they welcomed them after learning they were Jensens.
