Chapter 124 Nine Heaven Scrolls

When Alex left Desecrated Court, he went to the market to prepare for the night after tomorrow. He was determined to solve this matter for the Saflin family.

He had also purposely delayed for two days so that he could study the Nine Heaven Scrolls better.

After gathering everything that he needed, Alex went to the office. He then stayed in his room and started to learn how to draw talismans.

According to the Nine Heaven Scrolls, he could turn the Stacked Thunderstorm Spell into a

Thunderstorm Spell by drawing it on a talisman. The disadvantage of it was that the power of the talisman wouldn't be as strong as the spells cast out.

The advantage of the Thunderstorm Spell, however, was that it wouldn't drain him of energy.

After he had drawn the Thunderstorm Spell, Alex started to study the topic of geomancy.

He didn't believe that ghosts and spirits existed in the past.

But after what had happened today, he knew that ghosts and spirits really existed.

What's more, some mystic art practitioners would even use these ghosts or spirits to harm others.

Thus, it made him even more interested in geomancy now.

Later in the afternoon, Alex went to pick up his son and bought some groceries in the market. When he reached home, he realized that Heather wasn't back yet, so he cooked dinner himself. Heather and Carmen only came home when it was almost dinnertime, while the good-for-nothing Lucas was only back when Alex was done cooking.

"Sis, did notice that there's a new R8 in our neighborhood? That car costs up to two million! I wonder which family bought it," Lucas said while eating. Heather glanced at Alex without saying anything.

On the other hand, Alex was serving Stanley some dishes and ate in silence with the little one.

Under normal circumstances, he wouldn't join their conversation.

"That car is so classy. How great would it be if our family has it?" Carmen sighed and glanced at Alex with a look of disappointment.

If only my son-in-law is a rich second generation or someone more capable, then our family wouldn't be in such a situation.

"Heather, didn't you say that you were going to meet with the chairman? Did you meet him yet?" Carmen suddenly asked.

"No," Heather said as she stole a glance at Alex. Her mind was in a mess for some reason.

She was furious at first when she heard that Alex had laid his hands on Dylan's girlfriend. But then, the figure of the Four Seas Corporation's chairman came to mind, and she felt an indescribable sense of anticipation.

To be honest, her emotions were all in a jumble.

Sometimes she wanted to get divorced from Alex. But there were times where she felt that he was a great

man.

She had been meaning to talk to Alex about it, but the words would get stuck in her throat every time, and she would give up in the end.

"The chairman has been great to you. Why are you still hesitating? Did you forget that the chairman. promised that he would give you ten percent of the company's share? Our family will be relying on that ten percent!" Carmen exclaimed in disappointment.

"I know. I'll replace time to meet with him."

Heather nodded and added, "Let's just cat. I don't want to talk about this now."

She had indeed been meaning to set up a meeting with the chairman.

But she couldn't make up her mind as her emotions were all tangled up recently. She was especially confused when it came to her relationship with Alex.

Should I divorce him?

Alex obviously didn't know about Heather's train of thoughts.

As usual, he took a shower and put his son to bed.

When his son was finally fast asleep, Alex started to study the Nine Heaven Scrolls once again.

Around midnight, Alex lay beside his son and quickly fell asleep.

All of a sudden, Alex heard the laughter of a little girl.

It was an especially merry laughter.

Alex instantly opened his eyes and saw the little girl in red at the foot of the bed.

The little girl looked about seven or eight years old. Her face was extremely pale, and there was a bloody

hole on her forehead. She was staring unblinkingly at Alex with her bloodshot eyes.
