Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 605

George's attitude was the reason why Shannon had stayed. Otherwise, she'd have left the moment Marie started her tirade.

If she had known things would turn out so complicated, she wouldn't have had Benjamin suppress the news. It would have been better to clear up the misunderstanding right away.

Shannon really wanted to clarify that she wasn't in a relationship but…

She glanced to the side and saw Leah, who had changed into a dress. The latter was floating nearby and chattering incessantly. "18 may seem young, but back in the day, girls were already mothers at this age.

"Having a mystic partner is completely normal. Your family is even more old-fashioned than I am.

"That young man is remarkable. You'd all feel inadequate in his presence.

"Ms. Jensen, just let them meet him. Let's see what they have to say afterward." Leah had changed the way she addressed Shannon after confirming her status as Shannon's phantom helper.

Shannon felt a headache coming on as she half-listened to Leah's endless chatter and Marie's chiding.

She figured that since she'd signed a binding contract with Leah, the latter wouldn't dare act out even if she knew the truth.

Shannon was ready to spill the truth and get it over with. But before she could speak, Hector who'd been silent the entire time suddenly put his phone away and said with a smile, "Let's have him over then."

Shannon immediately turned to look at Hector as did the rest of the Jensens.

Scott eagerly blurted out, "Hector, do you know who Shannon's boyfriend is?"

Hector smiled without saying a word, while Adam felt a twinge of jealousy.

What was going on? As Shannon's father, he hadn't even met Shannon's boyfriend, but Hector already had. Was Shannon playing favorites?

Cecily, who had been silent from the start, couldn't help but look up in curiosity. She refused to believe that Shannon was in a relationship since she couldn't imagine what kind of man would fall for someone like Shannon.

But since Marie was throwing a fit, she'd like to sit back and enjoy the drama. Caleb and Hank had similar thoughts.
