Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 773

Shannon decided to wait until Marie acted up again before revealing the truth. It wouldn't be long given Marie's temper.

After Elliot had "treated" Marie, she immediately felt her legs lighten. Though she couldn't stand right away, the improvement was already a pleasant surprise.

"Thank you, Elliot. Thank you so much."

Marie had to be mindful of her dignity as a grandmother when it came to Shannon, but she had no such reservations when it came to Elliot. She could naturally express her gratitude.

Elliot replied a little embarrassedly, "No need to thank me. Actually, Shannon…"

He was about to explain that Shannon had probably done something to help. He'd sensed the spiritual energy of talismans from Marie that might have probably been Shannon's work.

But Shannon didn't give him the chance to continue. "Elliot charges for his services. It's all good as long as you pay enough."

Marie gave Shannon a barely noticeable grunt. Of course, she knew the deal. Along with the 30 thousand dollars from Alex, she transferred a million dollars to Elliot.

Elliot didn't react much to the amount. He wasn't one to spend too much money anyway, so there was not much difference between a hundred and a million dollars to him.

But Mike's eyes widened. Once Shannon sent the Jensens off to the family room for a rest, he eagerly scooted over to Elliot. "Elliot, you see, I did help with reading Zane's face. Perhaps the payment…"

He trailed off and hinted that he could perhaps get a share.

Halfway through his words, Shannon glanced over sharply and cut him off, "Speaking of which, you haven't paid for the talismans you took from me on credit. Why don't we settle that now?"
