Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 2192

It was the first time Thalia had heard about her mother's past with her father from Louise's own lips.

Unlike Shannon's point of view, Louise's tone was calm. But it was impossible to hide the fact that, even after more than four centuries, she still vividly remembered that person from her past.

"Your father, he… appeared to be a dignified man. But in reality, he was the most rebellious of them all."

Others would be terrified at the sight of a demon, running away in fear. Yet he, knowing full well that Louise was a demon, still approached her willingly.

Relying on the fact that she wouldn't harm him, he grew increasingly bold.

Even when he saw her true demon form, he was unfazed. He would cling to her, asking her to tell him stories about demons and ghosts, and even took those tales, twisting them into his own versions and writing them into books.

She didn't want to put Edmund or Thalia in danger, so she returned to the clan alone. She thought she could settle everything and then come back for them.

Louise said, "When I left, I set up a barrier around the estate where you and your father were staying and across the entire mountain. As long as you didn't step out of that mountain, no one would be able to find you, let alone harm you."

To her surprise, Edmund left the mountain, despite her warnings.

Thalia lowered her gaze slightly upon hearing this. She wasn't an ignorant child, so she remembered those events clearly.

"Father and I waited at the estate for five years. When the war broke out, his family wanted to take us away to seek refuge, but he refused.
