Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 96

Cecily turned her head away irritably.

In the next second, a voice suddenly echoed in her mind, "Cecily, Scott's affection level has dropped to the passing line. To ensure the successful extraction of fortune, please increase his affection level."

"Got it," Cecily replied in her mind.

She felt annoyed and added inwardly, "If you hadn't said that reducing one's positive energy would make it easier to extract their fortune, I wouldn't have taken Scott there. You said ghosts wouldn't harm me, so what was with those threads?"

If it weren't for those threads that rushed at her, she wouldn't have been so scared that she left Scott behind and ran away. And if that hadn't happened, Scott wouldn't have been so angry with her, either.

When Scott left angrily earlier that day, she didn't think much of it. But right after he left, the system suddenly issued a warning that his affection level had plummeted and showed no signs of recovery!

It had taken her three full years to increase Scott's affection level to above 85 points. Now, it had suddenly dropped by 20 points. Cecily was utterly frustrated.

"The system doesn't make mistakes. The system can ensure that you aren't harmed by negative energy. However, those were threads driven by grudges, so they were not ghosts in essence."

The system's monotonous tone irritated Cecily even more.

She had obtained the system by chance after she came to live with the Jensens. With the system, she gained beauty, a great figure, and even intelligence easily. Along with the fortune she later extracted, her life had been smooth sailing.

Therefore, she always trusted and relied on the system's words. Who would have thought she'd mess up so badly this time?

"Fine. Anything you say. Fortunately, Scott is easy to appease. Don't worry. Once I'm discharged and back home, I'll quickly get his affection level back up," Cecily said inwardly.

Though things didn't go as she wished, she wasn't too worried. Scott had a quick temper, but he was also a forgiving person. Over the years, Cecily had come to understand the personalities of the young men in the Jensen family thoroughly.
