Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 989

At the Jensen residence, when Caleb descended the stairs, he couldn't help but sneeze a few times. He quickly scanned his surroundings and made sure his sneezes didn't pull him back into another dream.

Despite confirming he had returned to reality, he couldn't shake off the feeling of how real the dream was. Even then, he remembered what it was like to survive on only corn while suffering gastritis at the subway entrance.

Not to mention how he delivered food under the harsh weather and occasionally got picked on or scolded by the customers… It was truly brutal.

After taking a seat, a maid served him a glass of fresh orange juice, as usual. He looked longingly at his glass of juice and was ready to take a sip when the familiar sound of a robotic vacuum cleaner echoed.

Frightened, he trembled and spilled his juice. Scott, in the living room, was startled by the noise. "What's going on, Cal?"

Caleb ignored him and stared unwaveringly at the other end of the hallway. Soon enough, he saw the vacuum cleaner in the distance, slowly making its way toward him.

He lost his cool again, jumping up from the couch as if meeting his enemy. "Who let it out? Thomas! Thomas! Turn it off and keep that thing away from me!"

Hearing the commotion, Thomas quickly came over. Though confused, he quickly switched off the robotic vacuum cleaner and concernedly asked, "What's wrong, Mr. Caleb? Are you feeling unwell?"

Scott, too, was confused. "Yeah. It's just a Roomba. It's not like you haven't heard it—"

He was ready to make an excuse to return to his room when Annalise suddenly stopped him to admire the custom-made gown she had prepared for Shannon's birthday.

"This is a haute couture piece I commissioned from three renowned international fashion design teams, who worked tirelessly for two months to create it. It's one-of-a-kind in the world and won't be released to the public."

Then, she suddenly turned to Caleb and said, "Hey, Cal. I remember you also commissioned someone to make a necklace. I haven't been able to find a matching set of jewelry for this gown. Why don't you lend us the necklace for Shannon's party tomorrow?"

Her words instantly made his heart drop. That necklace!
