Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 965

Shannon would constantly remind herself that Hector and Benjamin were different from her. They were ordinary people.

Though Benjamin was special, he was still only an ordinary person at the end of the day. But that thought shifted slightly after Benjamin had torn open the spiritual realm with his bare hands.

She thought about it and decided to come clean with Benjamin about everything tonight. She also recounted parts about Ziva that she hadn't shared with Caleb.

Firstly, she had a direct confrontation with Ziva tonight. And secondly, she wanted to gauge Benjamin's reaction to these matters. Roscus' words still lingered in her mind.

To her surprise, Benjamin did not show much of a reaction when he heard Ziva possessed the power of words. His expression remained icy and devoid of emotions.

But when he learned that Ziva had used her power on Shannon, his voice turned cold. "Did she use it on you?"

"She seemed more like she was demonstrating her abilities and testing whether I'd be restrained by her power of words."

Shanno paused. There was a smug arch on her brows as she added, "But I sent it right back at her."

Benjamin's gaze softened at her demeanor, and an imperceptible smile tugged at the corner of his lips.

When he asked about Caleb blocking her at the gate, Shannon's expression grew subtly nuanced. She took a moment to say. "If I'm not mistaken, Ziva must've likely influenced him."

Caleb's behavior tonight was unusual. Though he wasn't the sharpest, he wasn't that foolish to fall into the same trap repeatedly.

But his over-the-top defense of Ziva tonight reminded Shannon of how he'd blindly defended Cecily while berating her, so she figured Ziva must've influenced him.
