Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 88

"I shouldn't have incited Hansel to bully you just because you have a similar name as me. At first, I was just making fun of you. I didn't expect that Hansel would fall for you.

"He used to follow me around all the time. Suddenly, he said he liked you. I couldn't accept it.

"I didn't mean to do anything to you that day when I asked you to meet me on the rooftop. I knew you were pregnant, and I just wanted to scare you. I didn't expect you would have a miscarriage.

"It wasn't me who caused your death."

Rachel tried to make light of her actions initially. As she continued "repenting", the inexplicable chilly sensation returned. However, the coldness gradually subsided when she began revealing her true intentions.

Upon realizing that no one else would hear her words, she decided to confess all her thoughts and dark intentions to appease Rachelle's ghost.

Shannon stood by and listened expressionlessly.

She had seen some scenes between Rachel and Rachelle in the dreamscape. Besides that, she had also felt the emotions from the vengeful infant spirit and Rachelle's soul fragment. Still, she hadn't known the truth behind those emotions.

Rachel's confession didn't come as a surprise to her. Bullying another innocent girl over a name was indeed something Rachel would do.

When Rachel finally finished, Shannon raised her hand. The small paper lantern made of talismans flew back into her palm. She then kept it in a small bottle.

Rachel watched her movements with a hint of hostility in her eyes. "You can guarantee that Rachelle's ghost won't come after me anymore, right?"

Shannon gave her an impassive glance. Then, she responded earnestly yet perfunctorily, "Yes. You have my word."

After all, Rachelle wasn't dead. Even without Rachel's repentance, Rachelle's "ghost" couldn't come after her again.

"You also need to guarantee that I won't be as unlucky as I am now!"
