Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1055

Just as Shannon was going to sidestep Bradley and leave, the latter had a wounded look on his face when he saw her remaining silent. There was even a tinge of anger.

"How could you be together? He's not right for you. His age…"

Halfway through his words, Shannon's eyes turned icy. She raised her hand without hesitation and struck him with a silencing talisman.

Bradley's mouth seemed forcibly sealed in an instant. He could no longer say another word.

Benjamin observed her decisive act and tilted his head slightly. The cold glint in his eyes melted away and was replaced by a hint of amusement. "Why waste your spiritual energy?"

"I don't want to hear him talk. I have no patience for stupidity," Shannon replied briefly. That was especially the case for people who refused to listen to reason and enjoyed spouting nonsense.

The two of them talked as if no one was around them. They completely ignored Bradley.

When Bradley realized he'd been silenced by Shannon with mystic arts, he looked at her in disbelief. That was when he recalled that she wasn't just any ordinary girl.

For a moment, retreat flashed in his heart, but he stubbornly approached. He'd decided to give her up after seeing a full house of spirits. He couldn't handle a girl with strange and powerful magic no matter how perfect Shannon's family background and looks were.

But when she showed an impressive performance on Sixth Sense and earned constant praise and admiration from others, his dormant feelings were rekindled.

Given the Jensen family's prestige, he couldn't find an opportunity to approach her in private. And now that he finally had the chance to run into her, he wouldn't let her go that easily even with someone else standing by her side.

Benjamin might be impressive, but he was significantly older than Shannon. Unlike Benjamin, Bradley was just a year apart from Shannon, and they had some common ground.

"What are you doing hitting him? You…"

Janel had intended to take this opportunity to make a good impression on Bradley, but before she could finish her righteous accusation, she caught sight of Benjamin's face and was utterly stunned.

Shannon was uninterested in arguing and cut straight to the point. "Janel Harris, I'm here for you."

Then, she glanced at Bradley and added, "As for him…"

Before she could finish, Benjamin gave her a subtle nod and reached for his phone. Then, he dialed a number and issued a command in a cold voice.

"Come upstairs and take him away."
