Nelly fell on her knees without delay and started to slap herself dozens of times. Finally, she muttered an apology to Xynthia before turning tail and fled.It was obvious that after what had happened, she was no longer the queen bee of the advertising department. What Sawyer had said also meant that she would become a non-person in the entertainment industry. Someone like her would not have a good ending.However, Harvey was unaffected despite knowing how Nelly's life would end. Instead, he thought she deserved it. It was already quite lenient for her to end up like this for a woman who did not know her place and wanted to bully her juniors.-After it was all done, Marlee invited Harvey to a three-story office building that was only a couple hundred feet away.Xynthia and Journi followed them there. The two were similarly quite surprised when they saw Marlee's change of attitude toward Harvey.Marlee did not know who Xynthia was, but she was acquainted with Journi. They just di
Harvey squinted his eyes and whispered to Marlee, "I don't know who your family has invited to change the geographical features of your estate, but the worst thing he did was to move away the two statues at the gate."If I'm right, your grandmother's condition has already stabilized initially. After changing the geological features, she should be pretty energetic as well. However, she is starting to feel a little numb after the two statues have been moved. "In the beginning, all of you thought it was just because she was getting older. You also started to feel something was wrong during these few days, right?"Marlee was a little shocked. "Why does it feel like you've witnessed the entire thing?"Then, Harvey explained, "Everything leaves a trace, and it's the same for geomancy. Don't tell me you think I won't be able to see something has changed when you move the two statues that protect the fortune of your entire family?"If you ask me, the geomancer you've hired is either not
Veer cleared his throat and said, "Firstly, allow me to apologize on behalf of my nephew. He already informed me about Nelly and is now kneeling inside our estate's chapel. As he said, he will repent for three days and nights. Since he can't leave at the moment, he asked me to send you his apologies. "Other than apologizing for my nephew, please allow me to apologize to you on behalf of the Judds of Wolsing. The reason for all of this is because we aren't strict enough with our education and discipline. I swear in my family's name that things like this won't ever happen again in the future. We will also take full responsibility for cleaning up all the despicable acts that happen in the entertainment industry within Judd Entertainment."Veer was unsure how to feel when he said something like that. How could he not know that the sons of the Judd family had other women outside? But the problem was, it was fine for them to keep other women. But why did they allow those women to provoke
After a brief hesitation, Veer slowly spoke to Harvey. "Well… Let's start after you helped us deal with the problem haunting my mother. After that, all the seniors of the Judd family believed that there were some issues with the geomancy of this place. So, we were thinking of finding a new place to call home."However, the Judds are a big family. We have to make arrangements for many things. If we simply moved to another place, some might think that the Judd family is starting to fall. That's why we had to give up on moving, which meant the only other option left for us was to adjust the geomancy of this place."If you had asked me then, I would have asked you to help us with this since we shouldn't ask two persons to deal with the same problem. However, many elders rejected my proposal, saying you're too young and inexperienced."Ultimately, we asked Wolsing's top geomancer, Master Eridan, who has long stopped seeing any guests, to help us. Initially, everything went well. But afte
"It's your choice whether to believe it or not," said Harvey casually."Oh, come on," laughed Veer. "Since we've invited you all the way here, of course we believe you. Let's see… Please come this way."Then, Veer gestured and led him deeper into the estate. Harvey did not refuse and narrowed his eyes as he looked into the sky. He could already see a dark cloud gathering on top of the estate.In another courtyard, there was a huge lawn where a helicopter had landed. It was enough to show just how much wealth the Judd family had. But when Veer saw the helicopter, he was slightly surprised and asked, "Why is he back home?""He?" Harvey was quite curious. Veer was the leader of the Judd family. Could it be that someone else scared him within the family?When Veer saw Harvey's expression, he explained, "You probably didn't know this, but despite being the leader of the Judds of Wolsing, my father still has authority over me. However, he has been training in isolation all these years i
"Of course, you can. You're the leader of the Judd family!" Veronica said to Veer in a sarcastic tone. "However, to think that you've mistreated our mother… Aren't you supposed to resign already?"Veer coldly replied, "Don't worry. Even if I do resign, you won't be the next leader. So you can stop dreaming about it already."The corner of Veronica's lips twitched. She had wanted to say something else when an old man with white hair came out from the inner chamber at that moment. With a cold voice, he rebuked them, "Enough! Your mother is still unconscious in bed right now, but all of you argue amongst yourselves here. Where are your manners?"I have not been managing things for many years, but do I no longer have any influence within the family?"Veer narrowed his eyes a little when he saw the old man. Then, he stepped forward and bowed his head. "I understand, father."After seeing Veer's attitude, he turned his attention to Veronica and the others. "It's the same for all of you.
When Marlee heard what Veronica had to say, Marlee snorted. "If that Master Eridan is really as good as you claimed, none of this would have happened at all."After hearing that, Reginald's expression turned dark before Veronica could even reply. "Marlee, there are some things that you can't just make offhand comments about. Master Eridan and his school served the royal court for centuries since the 12th century. Even when it was during the Braided Dynasty and the modern era, they still possess incredibly high status."Usual families wouldn't even be able to ask for their assistance. How can you be so ungrateful and talk behind his back after he was willing to help us a second time? I will let it pass this time, but if there's a second time, you'll be punished for this, understand?"When Veronica heard what Reginald had to say, she nodded, full of pride. "That's right. Someone like you shouldn't be questioning Master Eridan. What do you know? I'm your aunt, and I have much more expe
Originally, Veer had more faith in Harvey. But seeing that Eridan was already here and had helped deal with the problem, he had to show the geomancer some respect no matter what because he was the family leader. Especially when it was something huge like this when everyone within the Judd family who was of age would have half their body become numb. If they all fell, the Judd family would be halfway ruined.When Eridan noticed Veer, who had been so serious before, was forced to smile, Eridan smiled back at him and said, "You're welcome. Your father and I are old acquaintances, and I've come to change this place's configuration. However, now that your mother has become ill, everyone is saying that it's because of my insufficient skills."That is why I have to come to your residence one more time, whether out of my own accord or the Judd family. However, it's a little late to say this, so I think I should reveal everything so that you won't have any misunderstandings toward me!" Eri
"That's enough, Veronica!" Marlee's face hardened. "No matter how good Master Eridan is, that's not a reason to treat Master Harvey like this. Not only did he heal Grandma in the first place, but we also have to respect him because he's willing to come to our family this time. We…""Enough!" Reginald was getting slightly annoyed, so he immediately made the decision. "It looks like I have no say in this despite being your grandfather, Marlee? Since you have so much to talk about, you can leave too. Otherwise, you'll take full responsibility if your grandmother's rest is interrupted!"Someone like Reginald knew how to humiliate someone without even pointing his finger at them. While he was scolding Marlee, he was actually humiliating Harvey. Since someone of his age hated the youths, who were so energetic and thought highly of their capabilities.Perhaps he did have some talent, but how could his talents compare to a true expert? It was as if he was the only one who could deal with th
"How dare you!" Eridan bellowed, his body shaking with anger. "You have a sharp tongue and like to make things up! I'm willing to bet on the reputation of the School of Astrologers that she will be fine for six days and nights!"I will use the Cleansing Technique in the arts of Geomancy to cleanse the evil spirits within her one more time. Then, I will slightly change the configuration before demolishing that mountain shrine! Everything will be solved then!"Then, Eridan pointed his finger at Harvey's face and said, "Stop criticizing my expertise when you do nothing, boy!""That's right. Stop being so proud over nothing," Veronica said to Harvey, having no liking for him at all. "Don't think I don't know just what kind of personality plebeians like you have. Do you think you can do anything you want, and will your status rise once you're acquainted with my family?"In the end, you're just making nonsense that won't be able to solve the problem and make it even worse. Only a piece o
"I'm willing to swear upon my School's name, Ms. Marlee, that I’m the only one who has the power to help the Judds of Wolsing," vowed Eridan with a puff at Marlee."Of course, if someone within your family doesn't trust me, it's fine. Have someone else deal with this, and I shall immediately take my leave. From now on, our school will never step into the Judd family residence, so you better think twice!" said Eridan coldly.It was apparent to all that Eridan was forcing the Judds of Wolsing to make a choice. If there were anyone who believed in Harvey, he would leave. The School of Astronomers had its pride to consider! His reputation as the best Geomancer in Wolsing was not something that was made up either. Whoever dared to question him was to challenge his entire school."Tell your daughter to leave with that charlatan!" Reginald stared at Veer without letting Veer have a chance to say anything. "Otherwise, everything will be too late if Master Eridan leaves because of his bad mo
"Don't worry. Once I'm done here, naturally, I will visit the mountains behind your residence. Once I've settled everything, all of you will be fine as well," Eridan spoke wisely to those from the Judd family.Reginald smiled and nodded. "While I am no longer the leader of the Judds of Wolsing, I can promise you that you will be the Judd family VIP if you can help us settle these problems. We will give you everything you want, whether money, prestige or something else!"Reginald knew how big the issue was. If Eridan could help them stop the looming danger, then whatever price they paid was worth it.Veer noticed how relaxed Eridan was, and he said nothing. Then, he even gave Marlee a look and told her not to say anything. Marlee upsettingly bit her lip, but in the end, she said nothing.Veronica smiled when she looked at Veer and Marlee, who had both taken a step back. "Father, Veer, don't you worry. With Master Eridan's help, I'm sure our family will be as prosperous as ever. Also
