Forgive Us, My Dear Sister

Chapter 372

Chapter 372 Draining the Last Bit of Value

Simone could sense the frustration in the voice transmitted through negative energy, indicating that the

old man suffered another backlash and was growing desperate once again.

Upon glancing at the two people completely lost in the formation, Simone collected the seal, the knife

coin, and the arranged formation stones.

She directed all the remaining negative energy into the bodies of those two people, not only to punish

them but also to protect innocent bystanders from getting involved.

Without paying any attention to the two people, Simone drove to the airport and boarded the plane.

Meanwhile, in the courtyard of the geomancy association’s high-level members, the man who had aged

before spitting out a mouthful of black blood.

His face wrinkled even further, and age spots appeared on his hands.

Upon clutching his chest, his expression changed as he muttered through gritted teeth, “Simone, you

little brat, just you wait.”

For years, his schemes had never been disrupted like this before.

The backlash had caused him to lose a significant amount of lifespan converted from his luck.

Continuing down this path was not an option.

Simone was indeed a variable, and he regretted not eliminating her earlier. If he had done so, he

wouldn’t be facing so many problems now.

Shortly after, Jonas entered with Jane, followed by Jodie.

Respectfully, Jonas said, “Sir, I have brought them here.”

The old man replied, “Let them in.”

After Jonas brought the two in, he closed the door and stood guard outside.

Jane and Jodie stood at the door, observing the old man sitting not far away with blood at the corners

of his mouth.

A sense of panic arose within them, and they sought comfort by drawing closer to each other.

The old man smiled kindly and beckoned them, saying, “Come over here. Let me take a

O

look.”

However, they hesitated and took a few steps back instead of approaching.

Upon witnessing this, the old man’s eyes turned cold, and his expression instantly changed. He

reached out toward Jane.

A chain formed by negative energy pulled her toward him.

Jane asked in confusion, “What are you doing?”

She had been sent here by a trusted geomancy master to have her curse removed and return to her

normal self. She pondered, Why is there an ugly and terrifying old man here?

Before she could think further, everything went black. She fainted as she got closer to the old

man.

The old man grabbed her neck and used the curse he had previously placed to drain her life force and

luck.

Upon standing at the door, Jodie watched in horror as the old man, who had been covered in wrinkles,

gradually became younger,

She covered her mouth, afraid to make a sound, fearing that he would harm her.

After more than ten minutes, Jane aged significantly, barely breathing. The old man finally stopped.

He looked up at Jodie with desire and disdain in his eyes.

The desire was for the remaining luck and vitality in her body, while the disdain was for the disruption of

her luck caused by the backlash, which ruined his plan.

Originally, he had calculated that a lucky star would be born in the Gray Family of Cebros, blessed by

the heavens with great luck.

He planned to turn her into an outcast and find a girl with the same birth date and time to seize her

luck.

And the replacement girl could absorb more and more people’s luck, becoming a mature medium for it.

Then, he would absorb the luck from the replacement girl. This would greatly boost his lifespan and

give him a chance to reach the complete unity of the Divine State, potentially adding another hundred

years to his life.

However, Simone had disrupted his plan, and Jodie had become more foolish and useless.

O

Not only did he fail to absorb the luck, but he also suffered several backlashes.

He had to constantly clean up the mess for her.

If it weren’t for Jodie, whose destiny had been entwined with Simone’s since birth, dealing with Simone

would have required leveraging Jodie.

Without Jodie, if he had personally engaged in fortune usurpation, the divine order would have caught

onto his scheme, leading to karmic retribution and heavenly punishment.

In that case, he might have ended up losing his life.

Otherwise, he would have already depleted Jodie’s luck and life.

“You don’t have to be afraid; I will help you,” the old man said, resuming his kind and gentle

appearance.

“I just absorbed her luck. I will transfer it to you later.”

For some reason, Jodie felt a sense of closeness upon seeing the old man like this, as if he were her

own family.

However, she remained cautious and asked, “Why are you helping me like this?”

The old man replied, “Because your brother is my most valued disciple. Before he went into seclusion,

he asked me to take good care of you.”

Upon knowing that Jodie was incapable and might not be able to keep the secret, he decided not to

reveal the truth about being her biological father.

Jodie felt relieved. She pointed to Jane on the ground, who was in a life-or-death state, and asked, “Is

she okay? Will anything happen to her?”

The old man sneered, “If something happens to her, don’t you want her luck? If you don’t want it, then

leave now, and I’ll return it to her later.”

To him, these children were merely tools, and he didn’t care about their lives.

Jane had lost her stone gambling expertise and was marginalized in the Fordson Jewelry upon

returning to Cebros.

She no longer held any value to him, and he was now squeezing out her last bit of worth before her

demise.

After all, he had given her life, and she had enjoyed twenty years of blessings. It was time for NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

her to be content.

Jodie’s expression changed slightly upon hearing this.

She quickly said, “I want it.”

She wasn’t familiar with Jane, so as long as her own luck could be restored, she didn’t care about the

other person’s life or death.

Then she realized that she had been too hasty.

So, she added, “I cannot let my brother’s kindness be in vain.”

The old man sneered silently. Undoubtedly, she was his own flesh and blood, inherently selfish and

heartless.

He smiled at her and gestured. “Indeed, do not let your brother’s kindness be in vain.”

Jodie was no longer fearful of him solely for her own luck.

Instead, she felt a sense of familiarity.

She pondered that if he intended to harm her, she would not be able to defend herself like Jane.

With determination, she approached him.
