Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 157

Jennie stared at her mother's sharp glare. She had also sensed the subtle gazes coming from the people around them. She had an embarrassed look on her face, and her ears turned slightly red.

"It wasn't much…"

When she said that, her voice had turned a lot weaker than before.

But of course, Hannah wouldn't believe her.

"How much is it exactly?"

Beside them, Jennie's father, Matthew Yost, realized that things weren't looking good for them. He didn't want the guests to mock his family, so he nudged his wife's arm. Then, he looked at Jennie and said with a serious expression, "Come with me."

With that, he smiled apologetically at Shannon and the guests nearby.

"Jennie doesn't know better. Shannon, please don't hold it against her. I'll have a proper talk with her."

With that, Matthew left with Jennie and Hannah in tow.

They were in the same social circle, so no one would go out of their way to shame them. Still, they couldn't help but be curious about this child who had recently reunited with the Jensen family.

When they heard her talking about astrological houses last time, those who deeply believed in mystic arts and astrology had expressed their curiosity.

Later on, they found out that the Shaws' case was solved by Shannon as well.

Emily, the mentally challenged daughter of the Shaws, almost lost her life on one occasion. Shannon not only saved Emily, but she also helped Emily recover.

But they didn't quite believe that last part. After all, those who knew the Shaws very well had met Emily a few days ago, but she still didn't look any smarter.

Still, after witnessing what just happened, they felt like Shannon wasn't completely making things up.

Scott already had his eyes on the scene when Jennie picked on Shannon. He was waiting for Shannon to teach Jennie a lesson.
