Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 568

After the production crew explained Lucy's condition, they decided to end the livestream early.

Steve decided to pause the filming considering her state.

As Shannon finally relaxed, a rare look of weariness crossed her face. The day had been draining.

She first dealt with the female ghost before moving on to the body takeover and soul-switching incident. She had used up a significant amount of spiritual energy.

Carlos saw her rare exhausted expression and ordered a car to take her back to the hotel to rest.

As the group was about to leave, Olivia pointed toward the street and spoke in a trembling voice, "Is… Is that a person over there?"

Given all the strange occurrences throughout the day and the rumor that the film studio was built on burial grounds, it was highly likely that she was seeing a ghost. It was quite normal for her to be terrified.

Everyone followed her gaze and saw a figure standing in the dim light on Costa Street. The man was holding an umbrella, and it was difficult to discern who it was.

Shannon recognized the figure immediately. Or rather, she recognized his blinding golden light.

No one would emit such a brilliant light at this hour except for Benjamin, but she was confused about why he would be there.

"It's someone I know. I'll go check it out."

As Shannon spoke, she took a nearby umbrella from a staff member and jogged toward the figure.

Behind her, Eddie muttered, "It's pitch black, so how did she recognize him?"

Olivia laughed and retorted, "That's none of your business. Shannon has sharp eyes, so how can they be the same as ours?"

Ignoring their playful banter, Shannon trotted up to the figure.

Benjamin watched her slow her pace as she neared him to avoid splashing rain or water on him.

Shannon believed his explanation and nodded. It wasn't his first time after all.

"Everything's settled here. I'll text Hector later to let him know I'm fine."

Benjamin frowned slightly at noticing the paleness of her face. He asked, "Are you hurt?"

Shannon didn't understand why he would ask that question, but she shook her head and replied honestly, "No, just a little tired. I used up a lot of spiritual energy today."

Hearing her admit to being tired made Benjamin realize how serious the situation must have been. His dark eyes narrowed slightly.

After a brief pause, he stepped closer and bent down slightly to come under her umbrella.

Before Shannon could process what he was doing, he placed his hand over hers and gripped the handle of the umbrella.
