Destined Entwining: Capturing My Devoted Beau

Chapter 767 - 394: She Is the Evidence (Second Update)

Chapter 767: Chapter 394: She Is the Evidence (Second Update)

At this moment, Autumn Stetford was heard speaking: "Heavenly Master Peter, can you take a look at Betty? Is her condition due to physical reasons or something else?"

As expected of a Heavenly Master, obviously a "kindred spirit."

Lawrence Winters tilted his head slightly, silently observing the situation nearby.

The man referred to as Heavenly Master Peter was named Peter Grant.

He followed his master, Great Heavenly Master Grant, who was doing business abroad with great fame and a huge number of followers.

This time, his master sent him back to check on Ruby Sheldon’s situation.

Arriving beside Ruby Sheldon, Peter Grant bent down to kneel in front of her, first checking her pulse, then lifting her eyelids to examine her, before finally standing up and walking around the hall.

He took out an old-looking compass, walking as he looked, and kept pinching formulas with his right hand, muttering something as if searching for something or making marks, much like a dog marking territory.

Seeing the way this person conducted himself, Lawrence Winters finally felt at ease.

Not only was she not nervous, but she was also somewhat excited.

After all, this was truly her expertise!

She had been studying this profession under Nick Zeller for more than ten years!

Peter Grant walked around the hall used as a ballroom, watching the direction the compass pointed, finally stopping where Lawrence Winters stood.

He looked up and said to Autumn Stetford: "Mrs. Sheldon, today is Miss Sheldon’s birthday, but among the people in this room, someone not only has a horoscope conflict with Miss Sheldon but also has the suspicion of a nightmare town."

The people in the room uneasily looked at one another.

Horoscope conflict is passive, but having a nightmare town implies active harm.

Lawrence Winters: "..."

It turned out this Heavenly Master’s main job was exorcism.

She scoffed disdainfully.

Autumn Stetford urgently said, "...Someone has a horoscope conflict?! Who is it? Can you calculate it?!"

Peter Grant stood not far from Lawrence Winters, not looking at her but glanced at everyone in the hall, saying: "Approximately, it’s a woman whose birthday is close to Miss Sheldon’s, differing by a day, either earlier or later, wearing garments and accessories that all have a restraining effect."

Lawrence Winters snorted inwardly, thinking here it comes...

She was not nervous, but rather secretly excited, with her palms sweating.

However, she still stood silently beside Mrs. Foster’s circle, watching curiously as the little Heavenly Master Peter put on his act.

Autumn Stetford stood up from the ground, swept her eyes around the hall, calmly saying: "Which of the ladies here has a birthday one day apart from our Betty’s, either earlier or later, please step out."

The people in the room glanced at each other, and finally, only Lawrence Winters stepped forward.

Her birthday was a day later than Ruby Sheldon’s.

Peter Grant stopped in front of Lawrence Winters, compass in hand.

He scrutinized Lawrence Winters carefully, from her tied-up bun to her high-heeled shoes.

Finally, his gaze moved upwards and rested on the necklace around Lawrence Winters’ neck.

He put away the compass, cupped his hands towards Lawrence Winters, and said coldly: "Miss Winters, I’ve heard of you for a long time! — No wonder! I wondered who had such audacity, daring to stir up trouble with me, Peter Grant, present!"

"Miss Winters, what grudge do you have against Miss Sheldon to harm her like this?!"

Lawrence Winters feigned a shocked expression, pointing to herself, saying, "Are you talking about me? Why would I harm Miss Sheldon? Have you been looking at Feng Shui so much that all you have in your brain is wind and water?"

This was a subtle jab at Peter Grant, implying he’s crazy.

Peter Grant did not mind her taunt, still maintaining his high-profile demeanor, chuckling: "Miss Winters, you don’t need to quibble. Why you want to harm Miss Sheldon, you have to explain it clearly to everyone yourself!"

He raised his hand, gesturing to the crowd in the hall.

Lawrence Winters stood there alone, her antique Dior dress accentuating her delicate figure, bright and splendid.

Evan Stetford and Edward Foster exchanged glances, quickly stepping forward, standing on either side of Lawrence Winters.

Evan Stetford looked serious, saying to Peter Grant: "Sir, Heavenly Master Peter, right? I know your master too, is this how he taught you? Accusing Miss Winters of harming Miss Sheldon, shouldn’t you provide evidence? Why make this young lady prove it herself?"

Edward Foster also said indignantly: "Exactly! I might as well say you harmed Miss Sheldon! Show the evidence that you harmed her then!"

Peter Grant was very polite to Evan Stetford, hurriedly bowing, saying: "Mr. Stetford, please don’t interfere, I do have concrete evidence."

"What kind of bullshit evidence?! Show it then!" Edward Foster shouted arrogantly.

Peter Grant pointed at Lawrence Winters’ face: "She is the evidence!"

Then pointed to the Jadeite Jade Pendant on her neck, saying: "That is also evidence!"

Evan Stetford: "..."

Edward Foster: "..."

"Are you blind? She is the evidence? Her necklace is evidence?—Then I say you’re the culprit! Your compass is also evidence!" Edward Foster was very angry.

What’s all this nonsense!

Edward Foster actually didn’t believe in this Feng Shui and face reading stuff either; he crossed his arms and sneered: "We are all successors of socialism, and you’re talking about these weird supernatural things, might as well just give Ruby Sheldon a shot of adrenaline to see if she immediately starts jumping around!"

Lawrence Winters’ lips slightly curved, her face had a faint smile, still silent and not panicked, very composed.

Peter Grant was angered by Edward Foster’s arrogance, pointing back at Ruby Sheldon lying on the sofa, sneering: "Fine, then I’ll tell you clearly how Miss Winters’ horoscope conflicts with Miss Sheldon’s, and how she’s harming her!"

"First, according to the Celestial Path Sect rules, people with birthdays within three days of each other should not appear at each other’s birthday celebrations, as it can cause a huge impact on both parties’ fortunes!"

"Having a birthday later than the other person will adversely affect yourself."’

"Having a birthday earlier than the other person will adversely affect the other person!"

"Miss Winters, you are also from the Celestial Path Sect, knowing your birthday is a day earlier than Miss Sheldon’s, you still deliberately attended Miss Sheldon’s birthday party, what is your intention?!"

"Also, the necklace Miss Winters is wearing is identical to the one Miss Sheldon is wearing, just in a different color."

"Miss Sheldon’s is black, black belongs to water. Miss Winters’ is yellow, yellow belongs to earth. Earth overcomes water, this is the second point!"
