Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 844

Due to Adam's assertive attitude, the police dared not ignore him or contact Shannon directly. As such, she was unaware of Diego and Connor's involvement with the authorities and their insistence on seeing her.

After leaving the accident scene and handling Eddie's matter, she soon arrived at the Jensen residence. The sky began drizzling at some point.

Since Shannon's attempt to cast rain previously during the livestream, the weather in Seastone seemed to have returned to normal, and it had rained quite a few times in the following days.

Meanwhile, Benjamin remained motionless in the backseats. Usually, the chauffeur would alight from the car, open the umbrella, and steadily escort the passenger out, ensuring that not a single drop of rain would touch anyone in the backseats.

Both he and Shannon shared the same thought.

Indeed, Nick swiftly descended from the car and took two black umbrellas from the trunk. However, he didn't go to Shannon's side of the car door but to Benjamin's instead. After opening the door, he politely signaled. "Mr. Cooper."

Benjamin was rather confused by Nick's action. The latter signaled him with his eyes, and upon confirming the former was still confused, he gestured with his other umbrella.

Benjamin seemed to have understood his meaning at last. He alighted from the car, took the umbrella from Nick, and under Nick's hopeful gaze, escorted Shannon.

It wasn't Benjamin's fault that he lacked such an awareness as he had never been the one to do something like that. Usually, he was the one getting escorted out.

Shannon was rather surprised at Benjamin's gesture. She stayed silent, assuming his action was a result of his OCD to make their relationship seem real. Most of the time, she had a feeling that they were actually dating.

She carefully lowered her witch's hat, lifted her dress, and descended the car. The two stood under the same umbrella.

Suddenly, she recalled when he picked her up from The Flourishing Age film set. They were so close that she felt like his golden light had enveloped her.

Before she could say anything, Benjamin fished out a handkerchief from his pocket and patiently wiped off the raindrops on her hair.
