Jodie’s expression changed upon seeing the people entering the room. Why did these two elders comehere? Ever since she arrived at the Gray Family, they had always been cold towards her, believing thatshe did not possess the Gray Family blood.

Now, it seemed that the visitors were not here for a pleasant reason! Andrew and Aaron were alsosurprised, “Grandpa, Grandma, why are you here?”

Owen had already consulted the doctor about his grandson’s condition and spoke with a seriousexpression, “You have caused such chaos and brought shame to the Gray Family, yet you still cannotresolve the problem. If we don’t come, who will clean up this mess?”

The room door had been slightly ajar, and they had overheard the conversation inside. They glaredangrily at Andrew. “I truly don’t understand how we raised such an indecisive fool like you.”

Andrew choked, “I was deceived.”

Owen sneered, “You lack intelligence and still shift the blame onto others.” He then turned to hissecond son and instructed, “Go to the geomancy association in the city, report and file a complaintabout Jodie Gray’s use of witchcraft to harm people. Bring her along.”

His second son nodded. “Yes, Dad!” He then instructed the bodyguard to seize Jodie and attempt toremove her from the room.

Jodie struggled relentlessly, “No, you can’t do this. Grandpa, you’ve misunderstood, I didn’t harmAndrew, I-”

Owen looked at her with disgust and interrupted, “Don’t call me grandpa; I am not your grandpa.”

Witnessing the cold and ruthless gaze of the old man, Jodie could only cry and turn to Andrew andAaron. “Andrew, Aaron, I don’t want to suffer at the geomancy association. Please, beg Grandpa not tosend me there, I beg you.”

Before they could respond, Owen furrowed his brows. “Silence her and take her away!” hecommanded, and a tall bodyguard covered Jodie’s mouth with his hand before forcefully escorting herout of the room.

The ward fell silent as Owen turned to his two grandsons. “In the future, act more decisively. Whywaste so much time talking to her? Do you believe she hasn’t caused enough trouble for your Andrewand Aaron cowered and immediately replied, “Yes, Grandpa.” They were not close to their grandfatherand had always feared him.

Owen glanced at the others in the room; his previously serious expression softened, revealing anapologetic smile. “Everyone, I apologize for subjecting you to this spectacle.”

Everyone noticed that he was resolute in his actions, and after exchanging a few polite words, the

group bid their farewells. As Owen had personal matters to attend to, he did not detain anyone.However, when he saw Simone about to leave with the others, he spoke up, “Simone, could you andyour senior spare a few minutes?”

He addressed his granddaughter in this manner because he understood Simone’s personality. Sinceshe no longer acknowledged the Gray Family, she naturally did not recognize him as her grandfather,either.

Aware of this fact, he wouldn’t shamelessly exploit their so-called family ties to manipulate her morally.In his heart, he couldn’t help but curse his son and daughter-in-law for their

nonsense.

Simone glanced at Bailey and asked, “What do

you

think?”

Bailey shrugged indifferently. “It’s up to you.” Meaning, if she stayed, he would stay; if she left, he wouldleave, too.

After contemplating for a moment, she asked Zac and the others to go back first. When they had left,she turned to Owen and asked, “What do you want to say, Old Mr. Gray?”

She didn’t harbor much affection or resentment towards Owen and Alice. Since being acknowledged aspart of the Gray Family again, their attitude toward her had been decent. On the other hand, due totheir emphasis on bloodline, their treatment of Jodie was relatively cold, and they didn’t even includeher in the Gray Family’s genealogy.

But to begin with, she had grown up outside, and the elderly couple resided in the old mansion, so sherarely visited, and their relationship wasn’t close. The Gray Family’s tradition was to grant freedom totheir children who weren’t the heir, let alone their grandchildren.

But it must be said that Owen’s personality was at least more likable than the others in the Gray Familyand at least not as hypocritical. When she severed ties with the Gray Family, the elderly couple hadalso attempted to persuade her to stay. Upon hearing her firm stance, they recognized their son’sfamily was in the wrong and did not press her further. They only mentioned that if she ever wished toreturn to the Gray Family, she would be welcomed at any time. If she required assistance, she couldalso turn to them, but she declined, and they were sensible enough not to pester her any longer.

Hearing her address, Owen understood her attitude and sighed. “That good-for-nothing grandson ofmine brought this upon himself. Although he deserves it, we are still concerned about what might

happen to him. So, I wanted to ask if you have any means to help him through this difficult situation. Ofcourse, we will offer any reward you ask for

It was somewhat awkward for him to negotiate with his granddaughter, but he couldn’t simply disregardthis foolish grandson.

Simone shrugged and straightforwardly replied, “I dislike them. Even if there is a way, I won’tintervene.”

She would caution and attempt to prevent those scumbags from being manipulated by Jodie. It wasn’tthat she still harbored feelings for them but just that she feared they would foolishly get themselves intotrouble and cause even more problems for her.

They brought this upon themselves, and she wouldn’t kick them while they were down. It was alreadyenough that they were in this situation, but she wouldn’t care for or assist them.

Andrew and Aaron stared at Simone in disbelief. She was truly heartless! But at this point, they had noright to blame her.

Owen was not surprised. Simone was more like a member of the Gray Family than these foolishgrandsons. If they had to sever ties, they should do so cleanly without hesitation. It’s a pity.

He knew that Simone wouldn’t intervene, so his real target had always been Bailey. He politelyinquired, “Master Shawn, you previously mentioned that you can forcefully resolve this issue for myfoolish grandson. Can you still do so now?”

Bailey responded in a meaningful tone, “It depends on whether your grandson is willing to let go ornot.”

Owen gazed at Andrew and inquired, “Are you ready to let go now?” If this fool hesitated and worriedabout Jodie’s fate after the matter was resolved, then he would give up on his grandson.

He no longer wanted this grandson and didn’t care whether he lived or died anymore.

Andrew could sense that as long as he expressed his willingness to let would leave immediately. Thistime, he didn’t hesitate any longer. “She has repeatedly

go, his grandfather harmed me, so I won’t hesitate anymore.”

As for the consequences, he didn’t care. The more ruthless she was to him, the more severe theconsequences would be. It was the result of her actions.

Owen nodded with satisfaction upon hearing his words. Fortunately, they hadn’t reached the point of noreturn yet. He turned to Bailey and said, “Master Shawn, he is now willing. When do you think you canhelp resolve this issue?”

Bailey smiled faintly and replied, “He was unwilling before, but now I am temporarily unavailable. Wecan discuss it when I have time.

These words left Owen and Andrew feeling a bit choked up. Despite that, they had no choice

but to accept it. After all, Bailey was the only one who could help Andrew at the moment.

Owen maintained a smile and said, “Alright, we will wait until you’re available, and then we will seekyour help in resolving this issue. His bracelet that suppresses bad luck has already broken. Will hecontinue to experience bad luck in the future?”

Bailey nodded. “That is certain.”

Owen asked, “Is there any way to temporarily suppress his bad luck? If he continues to experiencesuch bad luck in his current condition, I don’t know if he will be able to survive.” At his age, he had toswallow his pride and seek help for his grandson. It was truly difficult for

him.

It was his son and daughter-in-law’s fault that his grandson wasn’t raised well. When they returned, hewould teach them a good lesson.

Bailey looked at Simone. “You don’t have to take action, but you can offer them some advice.” Theitems he had couldn’t be given to Andrew for protection because he was not deserving and did nothave that fate. Since Simone had previously passed the problem to him, he was passing it back now.

Simone realized that her senior was rather petty. She pondered for a moment and said to Owen, “Yourgrandson was harmed by Jodie together with a geomancy master. I think you should go to thegeomancy association to seek justice and let them replace a way to suppress your grandson. All of thisfalls within the responsibilities of the geomancy association. If they fail to address it, then you can file acomplaint with the special department. There are many capable individuals in both organizations, and Ibelieve there will always be someone who can assist your grandson.”

What she wanted was for the Gray Family to make a scene and observe the attitude of the geomancyassociation and the special department, whether the individuals behind would protect Jodie or not.

Being the cunning old fox that he was, Owen understood Simone’s intention as soon as he heard it.This was shifting the responsibility to the geomancy association and the special department, allowingthem to take the lead in dealing with the Gray Family.

Once again, he sighed. Simone, his granddaughter, was a pity. He nodded, “Alright!” For the sake ofhis foolish grandson and the person behind them who plotted against the Gray Family, he had nochoice but to accept it.

Then. Simone and Bailey took their leave. After they departed, she smiled at Bailey and asked, “Bailey,are you being lenient toward Jodie?”

He raised an eyebrow. “Aren’t I helping you?”

Simone also raised an eyebrow. “Helping me?”

He explained, “Don’t you dislike him very much? Let him experience some misfortune and graduallyresolve it. I am helping you vent your anger!”

Simone was speechless. He certainly had the gab of tongue, and she was defeated by him.
