Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1901

Then, Shannon thought of one person—Vlad.

According to what Erick had mentioned, Vlad was likely abroad right now. If he was the one who took Hector…

Shannon's first instinct was to fly abroad and search for them. If Vlad was as difficult to deal with as Benjamin had described, especially with the backing of the vampire clan, facing him abroad could put Thalia and the others at a disadvantage.

Hector's disappearance clearly unsettled Shannon. Sensing her emotions in turmoil, Benjamin placed a steadying hand on her shoulder.

After she regained her composure, he said, "Thalia is already abroad. If she's telling you about this, she might not want you to search abroad.

"She might be hinting that you should investigate from within Crisea."

After all, people tended to overlook things right under their noses.

Sure enough, after Benjamin's reminder, Thalia confirmed that she'd continue searching abroad while hoping Shannon would stay in Crisea. She had a strong feeling that Hector's disappearance wasn't that simple.

News of Hector's disappearance could not be kept secret for long as the Jensen family received word.

First, Adam and George were informed, while the younger generation was temporarily kept in the dark.

But despite these efforts, Zane quickly picked up on the abnormality from Adam's tense expression and Thalia's unusually brief messages as they texted daily.

Realizing something was wrong, he hesitated for a moment and called Hector, who was abroad. His call went unanswered.

After pushing Adam further, he confirmed that Hector was indeed missing, and even Thalia had failed to locate him.

Zane returned to his room in silence and ignored Alex as they crossed paths. He knew that while Thalia was kind to him, Hector and Shannon would forever come first.

She'd spend 18 years in the alternate world just to save Shannon. And now that Hector was missing, she must be utterly desperate.

Zane refused to see Thalia suffer that way again. So, as if making up his mind, he walked up to his full-length mirror.

She took a red string and wrapped it tightly around her index finger. Then, she pulled it taut until a bead of blood welled up.

With one hand, she formed a mudra and chanted, "Three realms shine, seek and track. Lead the way."

At her command, the blood-marked string lifted, only to fall limp suddenly as if caught in an unseen force.

Shannon's gaze darkened. Someone had used a spell to mask Hector's soul energy. There was no trace of Hector's soul anywhere, just as Thalia had warned.

Since she couldn't track his soul remnant through their bloodline, she had to find another way…

Then, as if recalling something, Shannon retrieved a supernatural talisman infused with Bianca's supernatural energy and chanted a different spell. "Seek Marilyn Wynthorpe."

The supernatural energy on the red string glowed with a flickering supernatural light.

At the same time, in a barrier, Hector's wrist, wrapped in a similar red string, began to shine as if in response.
