Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 589

While saying that, Shannon added, "I'll make a binding contract with her later. Without my permission, she can't get near you."

Benjamin lightly grunted in response and said, "It's nice for you to have a phantom helper anyway." At least she wouldn't have to face any crises alone.

She thought he meant having a phantom helper would make her look cool, so she explained the issue surrounding phantom helpers.

Having a phantom helper meant she would also oversee their cultivation. That was the main reason she repeatedly rejected Leah, seeing as she could barely manage her own cultivation.

Learning that having a phantom helper required sharing one's spiritual energy for their cultivation, Benjamin, without a second thought, asked, "You have me, don't you?"

He meant using his spiritual energy. Yet, when it came out of his mouth, it sounded rather ambiguous.

Shannon, too, distinctly felt it, especially when their "dating life" had been exposed this morning.

A subtle quiet enveloped the back seat of the car, and it wasn't moments later that Shannon vaguely responded. Then, they stopped talking.

Once they arrived at the airport, she was surprised to see that Benjamin, whom she thought was only here to drop her off, got out of the car with her and entered the departure hall. "You're going back to Seastone with me?"

He glanced at her and nodded. "I'm done with my matters here."

In reality, a dinner gathering awaited him tonight. A government official, responsible for negotiations in his project, was the one who organized the meeting, to which Benjamin agreed to attend.

Unexpectedly, Leah suddenly came looking for him, saying Shannon was in a rush to return to Seastone. Assuming something urgent must've happened, he handed over the socializing role to the project's co-manager and booked the same flight as her.
