Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1597

"I know."

Benjamin didn't actually vanish. That was something Thalia had clarified.

Hector extended his hand, intending to stroke Shannon's head and tell her, "You shouldn't worry about that, too," but she shook her head.

Her expression grew more serious. "What I mean is I'll bring him back."

Even if, like before, the golden light faded completely, it would be enough for her as long as he could come back.

For her, it didn't matter whether he bore the title of National Dragon Vein or whether the golden light surrounded him—he was still Benjamin.

He had always been the one waiting for her return. This time, it was her turn to wait for him.

…

With that determination, Shannon no longer trapped herself in the loss of Benjamin.

She entered the car with Hector, but instead of heading home, they went to Caleb's villa—Rhodes' current residence.

Ever since his online store gained popularity and, with Hector's connections, he started collaborating directly with the mystic arts community, Rhodes felt that he had become a successful entrepreneur.

Having seen more of the world, he decided it was time to upgrade to a bigger studio.

In fact, Caleb had long been tired of cramped living in the small two-bedroom apartment he shared with Rhodes. When he saw an opportunity, he didn't hesitate and immediately offered up one of his own villas.

Like Rhodes, Caleb also felt that his achievements warranted a more fitting space. So, without second thoughts, he transformed the villa into a studio, leaving the old, modest apartment behind.

He initially thought of renting a proper office, but considering Rhodes' unique production technique, he decided to keep things low-key.

Since waking up, Shannon couldn't shake off her worry about Benjamin. After hearing Hector mention the others on the way here, she decided to check on them. By "others," she was referring mainly to Lexie and Heston.
