Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 2062

At a shopping mall, Kai and Rhodes now occupied the spots where Shannon and Trevaris had once stood and stared at each other in awkward silence.

Shannon and Trevaris hadn't returned, and they had no idea when the two would. All they could do was continue holding their position.

Just as Kai wondered if he should report the situation to the Special Security Agency and request backup, Shannon and Trevaris' energies suddenly emerged from another direction.

Almost at the same time, both Kai and Rhodes received a message from Shannon. She said she'd returned safely and told them to head home for now.

Upon hearing that she was fine, Rhodes obeyed and decided to go home, but Kai wasn't as obedient. He had to see her with his own eyes before he could relax.

So, he grabbed Rhodes and rushed back to the Demon District.

When they got to the courtyardthe in Demon District, Kai instinctively reached out to push the gate. But he suddenly paused as if remembering something and quickly withdrew his hand. Then, he knocked on the door.

Fortunately, someone from inside heard his knocks and said, "Come in."

Kai swaggered into the courtyard with Rhodes. When he saw Shannon and Benjamin standing in the yard, he was about to demand an explanation for why she'd suddenly dragged Trevaris into her domain.

That was when he spotted a child wrapped tightly in vines under the maple tree. Only his head was left exposed as he lay quietly within a golden maple tree barrier.

Kai was utterly dumbstruck. "Shannon… d-did he do something bad that we don't know about?"

After all, with Shannon's personality, she wasn't someone who'd "discipline" a child that harshly.

Even if Trevaris did something wrong, dragging him into the domain to lecture him was enough. Coming out yet and wrapping him up like that was going too far.

Worse yet, his malice could devour a weak soul and turn them into his source of food.

As Shannon and Benjamin's close friend, Kai knew full well what kind of threat Vlad posed. He now shot Trevaris a complicated yet wary gaze.

Honestly, he couldn't tell how such an innocent and harmless-looking kid could be one of Vlad's clones.

After all, this same kid had been the first to spot the domestic abuser's malice and teach him a lesson.

Kai had just seen a post about it. After being dumped, the man had furiously tried to assault his ex-girlfriend in public, only to mysteriously catch fire.

Later, tests run by the hospital showed he was unharmed, but the guy kept rolling on the floor, screaming and claiming to be burned.
