Chapter 269

Penulis: Subtle Light
After Jenny returned to her apartment, she shared the conversation with Lindsay.

Lindsay wasn't really shocked. She'd already noticed that Mitch wasn't as head-over-heels as he seemed. It turned out he had figured out what was going on and had been putting on an act the whole time.

She had also guessed there might be a plot to steal money; after all, it didn't make sense to go after so many rich families for no reason.

Jenny asked, "Linds, do you think Madam Abby was also cursed by that bastard?"

Otherwise, how could she do such brainless things?

Lindsay replied honestly, "I met your mom once before, but I didn't find any signs of a curse on her. Your dad isn't really lovestruck, but your mom might truly be."

Jenny sighed. "I figured as much. I always thought she wasnโ€™t very smart, so it makes sense she was easily deceived by that bastard. I'm not sure if you can break the curse on my dad."

Lindsay answered, "Once my skills improve a bit more, I should be able to help your dad break t

    Jenny was puzzled. "Used as a medium?"Lindsay explained, "The person behind this wants to directly steal the Ford family's fortune, which harms their karma and could backfire on them. By using a medium to first transfer the fortune onto, and then absorbing it from the medium, they reduce the risk of backlash.โ€œUsing someone who should have died at sixteen as a medium is exploiting a loophole in the natural order. The person behind this would use dark arts on the medium, allowing him to absorb part of the stolen fortune and convert it into life force. In case of a backlash, it would all fall onto the medium."Jenny understood immediately. "So, Casey might be this medium."If his biological father used him as a medium, then Casey's situation was indeed tragic.Lindsay nodded. "I also think he is most likely the medium."โ€œThis just goes to show how careful the mastermind is, and how long he has been planning this.โ€Jenny agreed. "We need to be careful too."She deleted the photo from her

    The two brothers happily agreed on their plan to set up their younger sibling. After hanging up, Edmund spoke with a major shareholder, suggesting this course of action. Raymond, who held some shares in the entertainment company and was considered a minor shareholder, was approached by the major shareholder. Not only did Raymond not oppose the idea, he eagerly agreed, taking on the task himself. He had been worried about finding an excuse to talk to Lindsay on the show, and now the opportunity presented itself.When Edmund and Oliver found out, they both sighed, lamenting that their younger brother was truly foolish. He was so dumb that tricking him felt less satisfying.The next day, Lindsay and Hector got into the show's car heading to the airport, starting the second episode of the live variety show. Due to Harper Entertainment's previous investment, this episode was set in Country S.Once all the guests arrived at the airport, they would fly together.Lindsay and Hector were

    Olivia smiled outwardly at Justinโ€™s words but felt uncomfortable inside. What did Justin mean? Did he not want to team up with them? Hmph, regardless of what he wanted, she was determined to team up with him again this time. She wanted to restore their once good relationship, or even take it further.Today, Olivia was not wearing a long dress but a white shirt and knee-length shorts, showing off her fair, slender legs. With a sweet smile, she greeted everyone. Lindsay ignored her. Elric also didn't spare her a glance. Justin sat down expressionless. Wendy gave a faint smile, clearly distant towards Olivia. Leslie smiled perfunctorily as a greeting. Hector, siding with Lindsay, played with his phone, pretending not to see her. George smiled but didn't speak, noticing that Elric didn't like Olivia, so he naturally kept his distance.Olivia's smile stiffened, feeling extremely wronged. These guys were unbelievable, all ganging up on her like this.Alex knew he wasn't exactly Mr.

    Raymond stood there, stunned. He looked at Lindsay in disbelief. โ€œYouโ€™re actually speaking to me like this.โ€Lindsay rolled her eyes. โ€œHow should I speak to you?โ€With a hint of impatience, she added, โ€œCan you stop bothering me? Isnโ€™t it annoying?โ€Raymond's chest heaved with anger. โ€œYou, you!โ€For a moment, he was at a loss for words.Across from them, Alex was holding his phone, the camera aimed at the scene. On the other end of the video call was Edmundโ€™s office. Oliver, holding the phone, and Edmund were watching the situation unfold.Seeing Raymondโ€™s predicament, both brothers had a look of exasperation on their faces.Edmund commented, โ€œRaymond is brainless.โ€Approaching with such a cocky attitude, it was bound to get him reprimanded.Oliver agreed, โ€œExactly. Heโ€™s completely oblivious to his position in Lindsayโ€™s eyes.โ€He added, โ€œActually, he doesnโ€™t have any position in Lindsayโ€™s eyes.โ€Alex overheard and couldnโ€™t help but retort, โ€œAs if you have any standing in Lindsayโ€™s eyes.

    He had always been irritated by Raymond's arrogance and conceit, so watching Lindsay render him speechless and furious was immensely satisfying.George was shocked once again, wondering what kind of show he had joined. These guests were more ruthless and audacious than he had ever seen. Seeing a A-list singer being humiliated like this was a first for him. It was exhilarating!Raymondโ€™s expression turned even darker. He couldnโ€™t hold back. โ€œLindsay, youโ€™re teaming up with an outsider to ridicule me. Do you still want to return to the Harper family?โ€Lindsay found his words amusing, โ€œNot only is your face big and oily, but your ears must be deaf too. Iโ€™ve already said I have nothing to do with you all and I will never return to the Harper family. You must lack a brain; your head is empty.โ€Both Oliver and Alex silently agreed. Their third brother was such an idiot. Couldn't he see that Lindsay had no respect for him? Trying to threaten her was pure foolishness, just pushing her further

    Alex stepped forward and gently tugged on Raymondโ€™s arm. โ€œRaymond, itโ€™s almost time to board. Come over and rest for a while.โ€Raymond was fuming from Lindsay and Elricโ€™s words but couldnโ€™t outargue them. He also realized that Lindsay wasnโ€™t giving him any respect. Unsure how to gracefully retreat, Alex provided him with an out.He looked at Lindsay and said, โ€œA real man doesnโ€™t argue with a woman.โ€Lindsay laughed out loud. โ€œIf youโ€™re backing down, just admit it. No need for excuses. If you really want a fight, Iโ€™m happy to oblige.โ€Raymond was taken aback. โ€œYouโ€™re unreasonable.โ€His sister had become increasingly infuriating. Besides, he didnโ€™t dare fight Lindsay. The painful lesson Oliver received was still fresh in his mind. He would be a fool to let Lindsay get physical with him.He turned and followed Alex to a seat across the room. As he sat down, he noticed Alex was on a video call with their other two brothers. His expression darkened instantly. โ€œAlex, what are you doing?โ€H

    Did Raymond really think Lindsay would suddenly be more agreeable during a live broadcast? He was too naive. After all, Alex was frequently teased by Lindsay and Elric in the first episode.The three of them spoke quietly, but Lindsay overheard them. She found Olivia amusing, always engaging in these little schemes. Of course, it was only because Raymond was foolish enough to fall for them. She resolved to help him grow a brain at some point.Lindsayโ€™s gaze landed on Olivia, noticing the red agate bracelet on her wrist. The energy from it was strong, comparable to the prayer charm Jenny wore. It seemed Oliviaโ€™s backers were quite formidable. With this bracelet, Lindsay had a chance to capture its energy signature. If she ever encountered the person who gave Olivia the bracelet, she could identify them based on the energy.Olivia quickly sensed Lindsayโ€™s gaze on her bracelet. She touched it and returned a smug look to Lindsay. Even if she couldn't completely counteract Lindsay'

    Charles was already aware of what had happened in the lounge. Thus, he looked at Raymond with a wide smile. Replacing Sharon with him was definitely the right choice. This was going to be entertaining, and the show would be filled with topics.Raymond felt puzzled under the director's gaze. Did he have something on his face? He also sensed a bit of malice in Charles' eyes...Charles greeted the guests with a smile. "Welcome to S, everyone, for this episode of the variety show. The theme this time is 'fun.' Youโ€™ll be divided into three groups among the ten guests. Our team will give you some check-in points, and youโ€™ll visit these spots daily. In other words, youโ€™ll be taking the audience on an adventure."Alex's eyes lit up. "This is great."He really didnโ€™t want to work hard just to earn a meal again. The last episode had left him with a significant psychological shadow regarding food.He asked, "Does the show cover the expenses for all the fun activities?"Most of the guests loo

    In the vibrant district of the historic town, the streets were lined with vintage boutiques and various artisan stalls. Lindsay's group visited the townโ€™s administration office and rented a temporary booth.Alex and Justin eagerly borrowed a table and chairs, setting up the booth. Following Lindsay's instructions, they also bought a piece of white fabric and worked together to create a simple sign. The production team provided markers and other supplies.Lindsay glanced over at Benedict and said, "Benedict, Iโ€™ll let you handle writing the banner."She was eager to observe his writing and the energy he gave off while doing it.Benedict sighed inwardlyโ€”this girl was constantly trying to test him. After a momentโ€™s thought, he nodded. "Alright, Iโ€™ll write it."He grabbed a marker, uncapped it, and wrote in bold letters across the white fabric: โ€œFortune Telling, Divination, and Tarot Readings.โ€Lindsay watched him closely, noticing the fluidity of his movements as he wrote, his posture exud

    Justin added, "My momโ€™s been trying to get me to help Olivia and distance myself from Lindsay. Sheโ€™s also said plenty of nasty things about Lindsay. This time, not only did I ignore her, but I even pushed back. It probably pissed her off, and now sheโ€™s taking it out on Lindsay."Alex, clearly upset, said, "You should talk to her and tell her to stop fixating on Lindsay. Lindsay hasnโ€™t done anything to provoke her. Itโ€™s ridiculous."He was frustrated that Justinโ€™s mom had been stirring up trouble, making Grace even more difficult to deal with.Justin nodded. "Alright, after the show is over, Iโ€™ll have a talk with her."He also felt his mom was acting out of line. Back when he liked Lindsay, her disapproval at least made sense. But now that Lindsay had kicked him to the curb, his momโ€™s continued obsession was baffling.Although they were speaking softly, Lindsay and Benedict, walking ahead, heard every word.Lindsay found the situation with Abby baffling as well. A woman who fawned over

    After Lindsay left, the other guests quickly followed, leaving only Alex standing there awkwardly. He spoke briefly to the production staff, and they soon shifted the cameras away from that area. Alex then walked over to Grace, saying, "Mom, since Lindsay wonโ€™t lend it, letโ€™s just drop it."Grace shot him a cold glare, her expression dark. "How can you be so heartless? The one lying in bed is your fourth brother. Are you hanging around Lindsay all the time just to learn how to be cold and ruthless?"Unable to contain her frustration toward Lindsay, Grace directed it at Alex instead.Alex sighed in exasperation. "Even if we need help, it has to be something sheโ€™s willing to do! Weโ€™ve wronged Lindsay enough as it is, so why do you keep trying to guilt-trip her? Brandonโ€™s situation isnโ€™t Lindsayโ€™s fault. Why donโ€™t you go find Olivia? Sheโ€™s the one who caused all this, maybe she can fix it. After all, whoeverโ€™s behind her is no easy target."Right now, all Alex felt toward Lindsay was gui

    Grace held back her anger and said, "It'll only take a few minutes. I have something important to discuss with you."Lindsay sat back down in her seat. "Fine, go ahead."The livestream was on, and Lindsay was fully aware of itโ€”she was doing this on purpose.Grace was about to speak when her assistant whispered something in her ear. Her expression changed, and she subtly shifted her body to turn away from the camera.Then she looked at Lindsay. "Can we talk outside?"In her rush to find Lindsay, she had almost forgotten that this was a live-streamed variety show. She didnโ€™t want to be on camera, much less discuss such personal matters in front of an audience.Lindsay, however, refused. "If it's important, say it here. If not, then donโ€™t say anything."Graceโ€™s expression darkened. "Itโ€™s because itโ€™s important that we need to talk privately."She emphasized, "Itโ€™s not appropriate in front of the camera."Lindsay just smiled. "Unless it's something shady, whatโ€™s wrong with saying it on cam

    Lindsay thought about it for a while and figured that if Grace was coming to find her, it was probably for Brandon. The only thing she could want would be the artifact in her possession.Alex saw her reply and couldnโ€™t help but smile wryly. His sister was indeed sharp and saw right through it.He sent a voice message, repeating what the head of the Divination Association had told them. "Mom just wants to borrow the artifact from you to suppress Brandonโ€™s condition."Lindsay replied, "Tell her not to waste her energy."Seeing that message, Alex knew right away that she wouldnโ€™t lend it out. It didnโ€™t surprise himโ€”his sister could be ruthless when she wanted to be."We canโ€™t convince her otherwise, not even Dad can stop her... sigh," Alex added. When their momโ€™s temper flared, she wouldnโ€™t listen to anyone.Lindsay didnโ€™t seem to care. "Then let her come. Iโ€™m not going to do her any favors."Alex recalled the conversation between their parents at the hospital and decided to warn her, "M

    Recently, Grace had been spending more time with Abby, often meeting up for outings. Over time, Richard noticed that Grace's anger towards their biological daughter had deepened. Abby had always disliked Lindsay and showed more favoritism towards Olivia. She must have been stirring up trouble and egging Grace on whenever they met. With time, Grace was bound to be influenced.Grace, clearly annoyed, said, "You even want to control who I make friends with? Aren't you going too far? What's wrong with me getting along with Mrs. Ford and spending more time with her?"Richard felt cornered. "I just think there's something off about her. Her intentions in getting close to you don't seem good. That's why I'm trying to give you a heads-up."Grace didn't believe him at all. "I think you're overthinking it. Weโ€™ve always had a decent relationship. Weโ€™re just closer now, thatโ€™s all.""What do you men know about womenโ€™s matters? Don't interfere." She now had plenty to talk about with Abby. Jenny wa

    Richard glanced at Grace with clear disapproval. โ€œThis whole mess was caused by Olivia and Brandon. What does any of it have to do with Lindsay?โ€He could tell that recent events, and the embarrassment caused by their sons, had left his wife feeling bitter. It seemed she had begun to project that frustration onto Lindsay, despite the situation having little to do with her.Grace crossed her arms defensively. โ€œIf it wasnโ€™t for her ongoing fight with Olivia, Brandon wouldnโ€™t have gotten involved. Heโ€™s her brother. Doesnโ€™t she owe him some consideration now that heโ€™s in this condition?โ€Richard frowned. โ€œWhat exactly are you trying to say?โ€Valarie, who had been quietly listening, finally spoke up, her displeasure clear. โ€œI see it differently. Itโ€™s Olivia and your son who started the trouble, and all Lindsay did was defend herself. Are you really looking to embarrass yourselves even more?โ€Grace shifted uncomfortably, feeling the sting of her mother-in-lawโ€™s words. โ€œIโ€™m just thinking abou

    Given the Harper family's persistence, there was no way the Divination Association could avoid a thorough investigation. Seeing that Randolph wouldnโ€™t back down, the official left, courteously escorted out by Randolph, who, for the moment, had ceased his protests.Valarie carefully placed the multicolored stone inside a small protective pouch before securing it around Brandon's neck. Though he felt a slight relief after putting it on, the bad luck continued. As the official had warned, his misfortune was too severe for one artifact to fully contain.Randolph tried every connection he had, attempting to borrow a second artifact, but came up empty-handed. Time slipped by, and evening approached before they could find any further solutions.By the time Richard and Grace arrived at the hospital, they were met with the weary faces of their parents. Feeling guilty for everything his father had gone through, Richard bowed his head. "Dad, Mom, I'm so sorry you had to go through this today."

    Hearing their words, the hope that had briefly flickered in Brandonโ€™s eyes quickly faded, leaving him more devastated than before. "Grandfather, I know I was wrong," he muttered, finally realizing the truth. His foster sister had been nothing but troubleโ€”far from trustworthy, she had been a constant source of harm. Meanwhile, his real sister, though harsh and distant, had proven to be far more reliable. Regret gnawed at him deeply.Randolph sighed, his voice heavy with disappointment. โ€œKnowing youโ€™re wrong doesnโ€™t change anything. Itโ€™s too late now.โ€Turning back to the two mystics, Randolph asked, โ€œIf you canโ€™t break the curse directly, could you at least help suppress his misfortune? Maybe with a protective charm or some kind of mystical object?โ€Despite his frustration with his grandsonโ€™s foolishness, he couldnโ€™t just leave him to suffer.Both mystics exchanged uneasy glances. โ€œWe donโ€™t have the ability to suppress his bad luck with charms.โ€โ€œFor something like that, youโ€™d need t
