Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1277

The familiar person was none other than Vincent, whom she hadn't seen in some time.

Since Sixth Sense wrapped up, Olivia became the only person Shannon had stayed in touch with.

As a recipient of the Best Actor award, Vincent had gotten so busy with filming that the only way to hear about him was through updates online.

Shannon still remembered the last time she searched for him on the Internet. What stayed on the top trending topic was a recent picture of his finalized costume and makeup photo for the role of a young female protagonist.

The photo only prompted a word from her—stunning.

At that time, Olivia sent the photo to the group chat to make fun of him.

Shannon also recalled how he was ready to start filming for a new production. To her surprise, he had come to ask for her help.

"I heard from Olivia that you were participating in a college tournament in Jamborough. I didn't want to trouble you at first, but the circumstances have led me to you." Vincent appeared helpless. "I think… I encountered a ghost."

Shannon wasn't that surprised by his words. From the moment she saw him, she had already detected the faint negative energy around him. Amid the negative energy was a trace of ghastly energy—a sign that he had been marked by a spirit.

Before she could inquire further, he recalled all the peculiar incidents he had run into lately. "A while ago, I'd just secured a project. I returned to Jamborough for a break, and the day I touched down, I saw someone among the crowd of fans at the airport.

"That person… used to be my best friend when we were little. We probably hadn't seen each other in about a decade. The reason why I recognized him immediately was because… he looked just the same as when I last saw him as a kid."

"He's come to me now, so he must be seeking my help. I want to help him, but I can't reach him. So, I was thinking… Maybe you could help me find him?"

Vincent explained his situation solemnly, yet Shannon's expression only grew increasingly complicated. It seemed that what she saw in him differed greatly from the situation he was describing.

Just the ghastly energy marked on him alone was enough to indicate it was at least a century-old powerful spirit. In other words, Vincent's childhood friend couldn't possibly be the same ghost.

And if what Vincent said was true, what he had encountered might not be just one ghost but… two.

Of course, aside from this, there was also another possibility.
