Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 31

Shannon hoped for more jobs like this one. That way, she'd be able to gather the money she needed to repay the Grays for every single dollar they ever spent on her.

Thinking that she could soon completely cut off all ties with the Grays, she walked with a spring in her step.

Hector had noticed the way her eyes crinkled in joy after checking her bank statement. His smile deepened, but he didn't expose her.

Judging from her current mood, he figured she had forgotten all about the distress that had taken place back at the Jensen residence earlier today. With that in mind, his eyes darkened. He abruptly said, "I'm sorry, Shannon."

Shannon turned around to look at Hector, and he continued, "Although I saw how you dealt with Carla, I didn't fully believe you could resolve the Shaws' predicament. That's why I didn't stand up for you when Dad told you to stay out of it. I apologize for that."

Looking at her with a warm and gentle smile, he said, "But I'm now convinced that you, my little sister, are truly incredible."

Thus, after dropping her off at her apartment, he transferred three million dollars to her as well.

Shannon had just set her phone down after making a transfer of 1.5 million dollars when she received a notification informing her that she had just received another transfer of three million dollars.

Why would the money she just transferred over be returned to her in twice the amount? Did Thalia secretly bless her with good fortune?

Upon closer inspection, Shannon realized the three million dollars came from Hector. Seeing that he was rich enough to be this generous, she figured she was earning too little.
