Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 699

A thought crossed Caleb's mind. For a moment, it felt like his feelings had been reciprocated. With a smile, he said, "By the way, I've prepared a surprise for you. I bet you'll love it."

"Really?" Cecily seemed excited, then alluded to something. "Actually, I've prepared a surprise for you too, Cal."

Unaware of her ulterior motives, he instantly showed delight and stepped harder on the accelerator. Before long, he brought her back to his place in the city.

Caleb only visited the house occasionally but ensured it was cleaned every three days. Just before he returned yesterday, he had arranged for a housekeeper to tidy up.

When Cecily stepped inside, she was greeted by a spacious, well-kept interior bathing in sunlight, though the place seemed uninhabited for a long time.

Caleb subsequently brought the luggage into the house. Visualizing this space as their little private nook, he eagerly took a few photos with her to post on his social media.

Then, he pulled her into another room.

Cecily obediently followed him while clasping hands. When he opened the door, she was shocked.

The room was lined with glass cabinets filled with a variety of dolls, with many of them looking oddly familiar.

Had the other Jensens been present, they would've easily recognized these as a portion of the dolls she had claimed to have exterminated.

"Besides the ones you asked me to keep for you, there are also some I retained from when you discarded them. I remember these being your favorites."

"Of course." Caleb looked affectionately at her. "I'll grant you whatever wish you want."

A smile suddenly crept onto Cecily's face. She stared at him and softly uttered, "So, you promised me. If that's the case… I want all of your fortune."

Before he could comprehend what she meant, his mind felt like it had flipped on its head. In the blink of an eye, the very scene before him shifted dramatically.

Suddenly, it felt like he was trapped inside a cabinet, looking out through the glass panels as Cecily and "he" smiled gently at him. At that moment, his mind went black, unable to discern whether the scene before him was a dream or reality.

It wasn't after a while that he finally heard Cecily's sweet voice uttering the most chilling words. "Do you like my surprise, Cal?"
