Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1695

It could be seen as a roundabout confession or a sharing of something personal.

Shannon glanced at the meticulously styled celebrity in the photo, then at the cool and composed Benjamin, and couldn't help but wonder, "How on earth are they alike?"

Seemingly aware of the confusion in her mind, Benjamin explained, "To avoid trouble, I used the golden light to conceal my true appearance."

In truth, he didn't need to make such an effort to hide. His golden light naturally obscured people's impressions of his appearance.

It was like how journalists had once failed to capture a clear photo of his face, and those who had seen him could never quite recall his true features.

However, for demons, they would unconsciously alter their perceptions, often processing his image based on someone or something they found most striking.

The person who wrote him the letter had likely imagined him to resemble that celebrity. Of course, this only applied to younger demons.

Powerful demons like Luke or Reuben were far less likely to be affected by the golden light. As for humans who had truly seen his face, there was, strictly speaking, only Shannon.

Shannon didn't press further on his explanation about concealing his true appearance. Instead, her attention was more focused on the motives behind the letter.

Ava and the grandaunt, Elena Beren, rushed to Fiona's room upon hearing the scream, only to be greeted by a chaotic scene.

The room was a complete mess—delicate photocards were torn apart and carelessly tossed around, while various figurines and collectibles lay broken, their arms, legs, and heads scattered about.

Even Fiona's treasured posters, life-sized idols, and mini figurines were no exception, all destroyed beyond recognition.

At the center of the wreckage stood the culprit, a tiny little troublemaker, confidently demanding an explanation from Fiona.

"Why do you have so many human things in here?" he questioned, his voice filled with outrage. "Lowly humans! Watch me destroy them all! Destroy!"

Fiona clutched the already damaged collectible figurine she had painstakingly fought to acquire, her entire being on the brink of collapse.

The little brat, Teddy Grizzly, prompted her eyes to turn red with fury. Supernatural energy surged around her as she glared at the youngling before her, her anger practically radiating off her.

Had Shannon been there at that moment, she would have noticed that amidst the powerful supernatural energy emanating from Fiona, there were subtle traces of dark, putrefied supernatural energy mixed in…
