Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 2182

Although Thalia cried often, she wasn't the type to do so without a proper reason.

Shannon had considered that Thalia was simply worried because she and Benjamin couldn't return in time due to the space-time chaos, but that wasn't convincing enough.

With Reuben's appearance alongside her, Shannon couldn't help but recall the incident she had recently witnessed, where a certain thousand-year-old powerful demon made his three-year-old sister cry…

Naturally, she assumed he was the reason again.

Frankly, Reuben felt wronged. He had done nothing but had been told off earlier.

Louise watched as Thalia clung to Shannon, crying like a child. Emotions flickered in her eyes, and although she wanted to step forward, she knew all too well that Thalia no longer welcomed her.

Neither she nor Reuben moved. Instead, it was Hector, arriving in haste, who finally cleared his throat and helped Shannon soothe their emotional mother.

Thalia had only been overwhelmed for that brief moment. After confirming Shannon was safe, she soon calmed down.

A few of the clan elders within the manor noticed the couple's presence and hastily made their way over.

They had learned from Trevaris that Shannon had met the Ten-Tailed Elythune and that the latter had even revealed all ten tails.

Their gazes toward Shannon oozed with anticipation. They couldn't believe she had actually manifested ten tails in less than three years!

Due to their excitement to find out the answer, one of the clan elders promptly asked, "Shannon, I heard you obtained the Ten-Tailed connection. Is it true that you've manifested your tenth tail now?"

The other asked, "When you were caught in the space-time chaos, was the divine soul of the Ten-Tailed Elythune harmed in any way? Say, would you let us examine it?"

Their tone was drenched in impatience and concern, yet none of it was directed toward Shannon's well-being.
