Chapter 362 Contempt

Maggie's mansion was in a forest in the suburbs, and it was furnished very lavishly.

Even though she was just staying in Nebula City temporarily, the Grant family was wealthy enough to buy a whole mansion for her.

In no time, Stefan and Alex arrived at her mansion.

At that moment, a middle-aged butler stepped out and Stefan hurriedly greeted him, "Mr. Green, is Ms. Grant home?"

The butler's name was Warner Green, and he was Maggie's assistant, Fabian's brother. He took a look at Stefan and asked in a monotonous manner, "Stefan, why are you looking for Ms. Grant?" The Jones family was one of the few remaining families in Nebula City, yet Warner still didn't see Stefan as anyone of importance.

Stefan also knew his place as well, and he understood that even though he was the head of a family, his status was lower than a butler from the Grant family, especially if they were in Lumenopolis. "Mr. Green, I heard that Ms. Grant is quite unlucky as of late, so I invited a Master Geomancer here. He is the real deal, so he will definitely solve her problems," Stefan explained hurriedly.

Warner gave Alex, who just came out from the passenger's seat, a sidelong glance, clearly indicating his lack of respect to him.

A Master Geomancer of such a young age? Preposterous.

Warner turned his gaze away from Alex and said, "Mr. Carter from the Mountain of the Beasts has already arrived, and he's performing a ritual for Ms. Grant. You should go back first since this ritual is not to be disturbed."

Stefan started to become anxious. "Mr. Green, Mr. Jefferson is already here, so just give him a chance. My Jones family had some issues related to geomancy as well, and Mr. Jefferson right here helped us solve them. Also, Mr. Jefferson knows Ms. Grant personally."

Warner chuckled and retorted, "Everyone says that. I've heard that sentence so much it hurts my ears. Even so, is he as powerful as the Master Geomancer from the Mountain of the Beasts?"

He was actually showing some respect for Stefan for asking that question, because if not, he would've just accused Alex of being a charlatan. Master Geomancer, more like Master Charlatan! Stefan was a little embarrassed so he asked, "Mr. Green, have you ever heard of Damian Kline before?"

Warner sang his praises, "Mr. Kline is the eldest disciple in the Mountain of the Beasts and a top-notch geomancer. Unfortunately, he seems to be overseas right now. If not for that, we would've invited him

over too."

Stefan laughed. "But Damian was defeated by Mr. Jefferson right here."

"What?"

Warner gaped in surprise and eyed Alex suspiciously. "Are you saying that Mr. Kline was defeated by this man?"

Stefan replied confidently, "That's right. I asked for Damian's help in geomancy, and I have to admit that he really is quite powerful. However, the geomantic studies from the Mountain of the Beasts are flawed." "How so?" Warner squinted at Stefan.

Stefan desperately wants to work with Breezeworth Hall, so I don't think he'll exaggerate.

Stefan explained, "My whole family was in peril because we were haunted by an evil demon, and the solution Damian gave us was to sacrifice my life to save the Jones family. I was about to be sacrificed to the demon when Mr. Jefferson stepped in in time and destroyed the demon while interrupting Damian's ritual. He saved my life and all the lives of the Jones family's members as well. Damian was enraged, so he wanted to compete with Mr. Jefferson, but he was sent reeling after only a few spells from Mr. Jefferson. In the end, he ran off by himself, leaving his junior behind. The entire Jones family knows about this incident, so if you don't believe me, you can ask them instead." D

Warner gaped in shock once he heard the story.

According to my knowledge, Damian Kline is a world-renowned Geomancer. Was he really defeated by this youngster over here?

Warner couldn't help but stare at Alex in admiration.
