Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 335

Gerald walked over and pulled Hazel into a tight embrace. His voice was hoarse as he said, "I'm so sorry, Hazel. I've been so wrapped up in other things that I completely failed to notice your emotions. Please don't leave me, okay?"

His voice trembled as he held her closer. "I've already lost Maggie. I can't lose you too, Hazel."

Hazel started crying again with Gerald as they held each other tightly.

It was unclear how much time had gone by when the doorbell suddenly rang.

Gerald roughly wiped away his tears, mumbled something about getting the door, and left the room.

A moment later, he suddenly called for Hazel. "Hazel! Can you come out here for a sec?"

Hazel came to her senses and went to the door. She saw Gerald standing at the doorway with a young man dressed in all black, including a black hat.

"There's an express delivery for you that requires your signature," Gerald explained gently.

A look of bewilderment crossed Hazel's face, but then, as if she recalled something, she took a few steps forward.

After glancing at her, the delivery man reached into his bag and pulled out a wooden box.

"I'm here with the package for Ms. Nuttall. It contains two spirit-seeing talismans that Ms. Jensen had sent over using our express delivery service."

As the delivery man opened the wooden box, two gray talismans came into view.

Upon seeing that they were two ordinary people, he kindly explained, "You should either burn the talisman or stick it on your body. It'll only last for two hours."
