Chapter 368 Any Results?

The Johnston Family consistently favored their daughter, Salma.

Their anger flared upon learning about Melinda’s shameless and excessive behavior.

They reassured Salma that the Steward Family was of little worth, making retaliation against them a

manageable task.

The Johnston Family was formidable; even Mr. Foster’s personal intervention wouldn’t easily resolve

the matter.

Their daughter was exposed in a video, depicted as a vulgar woman, causing her to lose her reputation

and bringing shame to the Johnston Family.

They comforted Salma and encouraged her to confront Melinda, assuring her of their support.

After ending the call, Salma felt much better.

Previously, she had believed that her parents and Nicholas no longer loved her, leading to her request

for help being rejected. Nicholas even suggested she go see a psychiatrist.

Now, it seemed they didn’t refuse to help because they didn’t want to, but rather to fully understand the

situation.

A family that could produce an offspring like Melinda was not one to be associated with, especially with

so many problems exposed, tarnishing the entire family. They believed the Johnston Family deserved

their misfortune.

Upon looking at her husband, Salma said, “Honey, you should join forces with my family to suppress

the Steward Family.”

He shouldn’t resist or decline this time, right?

Indeed. Steven nodded and said, “Even if you didn’t say it, I would do the same.”

Melinda had crossed boundaries. She instigated conflict between his wife and daughter and hired a

warlock to harm them.

If he didn’t fight back, his position as the chairman of the Gray Group would be at risk.

Salma smiled and said, “Good. Let that woman suffer.”

After the Steward Family was destroyed, she planned to instigate others to confront Melinda.

She aimed to ensure that Melinda endured daily mockery within their social circle.

After arranging for a private plane, Steven felt uneasy.

He decided to go to the geomancy association to invite two geomancy masters to escort them back to

Callington.

As long as there was enough money, there would be no problem.

Before he could go, Owen called, saying the geomancy association had notified them of Jodie’s case

investigation and asked him to come.

Owen was in Cebros. He didn’t want to deal with it, so he assigned it to Ste.

Steven asked Salma to rest at the hotel and went to the geomancy association. Upon thinking about

the retaliation against Melinda that would follow, Salma returned to the hotel in a good mood.

In the stairwell, she encountered a friendly and chubby foreign man.

When she went out, she accidentally bumped into him.

He repeatedly apologized, but she didn’t pay much attention and returned to her room.

She rested in the room for a while before going into the bathroom to remove her makeup.

Unbeknownst to her, a small white worm fell from her onto the water while she was washing her face.

The worm quickly burrowed into her nose.

At this time, the warlock had returned to the inn and started his ritual.

He used a doll with a photo of Salma attached to it.

To avoid exposure, he planned to activate the venom inside Salma’s body three days later.

In Cubilis, besides the geomancy association’s courtyard protected by formations, Bailey could detect

anyone or anywhere using unnatural powers.

This was a power he gained after being bound by Cubilis.

Now, he was sharing a meal with Simone, drinking coffee, and discussing matters related to the

practice of mystical arts.

When he sensed it, he looked at her and said, “The warlock has successfully cursed Madam Johnston

and completed his ritual. Based on his actions, Madam Johnston will only

experience the effects three days later.”

He asked, “Are you going to intervene?”

After all, Simone was Salma’s biological mother, and he wasn’t sure if she would care after Salma was

successfully cursed.

Simone shook her head. “No, I won’t. I had already warned her before that getting involved with Mrs.

Foster would bring disaster. From her physiognomy perspective, even if she doesn’t get affected this

time, there will be a next time. Besides, I want her to experience the consequences herself. So, I won’t

intervene. Based on her previous mindset, she won’t die anyway, so the harm is limited; it’s nothing.”.

Let’s see if she still maintains this mindset after being affected by the curse.

A smile appeared in Bailey’s eyes. “They will most likely come to you for help in lifting the curse.”

Simone said, “I won’t help either.”

Salma being cursed didn’t affect the overall situation, so she wouldn’t bother like she did with the few

sc*mbags.

She only hoped that Salma wouldn’t die.

If Salma hadn’t insisted on getting involved with Melinda, there would be no negative

consequences.

Bailey smiled and said, “That’s good; you two don’t have a mother-daughter bond anyway.”

He appreciated Simone’s approach, and he wouldn’t interfere either if he were in her shoes. Then, his

mind shifted. “Mr. Gray has arrived in Cubilis.”

Simone smiled and said, “He must be here to invite the geomancy master to accompany them back to

Cebros.”

As soon as Steven learned that he had been targeted by the warlock, he would seek a safer option.

Bailey continued to be perceptive. After a moment, he smiled and said, “You only guessed half of it.”

Simone thought for a moment and said, “For the other half, does it mean the geomancy association

has results regarding the investigation of Jodie?”

He gave her an approving look. “You are so clever.”

She smiled and asked, “So, what’s the result? Who is being blamed for Jodie?”

Upon seeing that Jodie was able to walk around Cubilis freely, it was clear that someone had decided

to protect her.

So, to clear Jodie’s name, they could only find a scapegoat.

Bailey replied, “It’s related to Master Gordon and the Gray Family.”

Simone had a confirming look on her face. “Indeed. It’s Master Gordon. He deserves it.”

They were all involved, so it wasn’t unfair for someone to be pushed forward to take the blame. She

had already guessed that someone would make Master Gordon the scapegoat.

They must have also realized that Steven suspected something was wrong with Master Gordon.

By sacrificing Master Gordon this time, not only could they shift the blame, but they could also directly

solve the problem.

She inquired, “What about Jodie?”

Bailey responded, “According to them, Master Gordon placed a spell on Jodie, exerting control over

her. So, that explains why Jodie engaged in activities such as manipulating people’s luck. In the end,

Master Gordon would absorb the luck.”

Simone cynically smiled. “So, Jodie has transformed from the wrongdoer to the victim. Once again, she

has become an innocent lily. The people responsible for this are truly shameless. And it appears that

they have no fear of exposing the issues within the geomancy association.”

Not only did she find this hard to believe, but even Steven and the Gray brothers would also find it

unbelievable.
