The Heiress’ Return & Revenge

Chapter 446 Who Calerated Whom in the End

That warlock glanced at Simone, his eyes filled with complexity. “Thank you for saving me,” he said.

Although Simone had rescued him, he still held a grudge against her for the events that had transpired

fore. After all, if it hadn’t been for her, he wouldn’t have been captured in the first place. He understood

that he had saved in to prevent her master from misunderstanding, but despite his grudge, he didn’t

dare to provoke Simone again.

The jade pendant carved by Simone had the power to dissolve the death curse imposed by a celestial

master. Even though he was still injured, the fact that she had saved his life indicated that her power

was likely comp: rabir to that of a celestial master. No matter how many more years he practiced, he

Then, he shamelessly asked, “Um, can you give me another defensive weapon?

Simone gave him a disdainful look and replied, “Carving one of these things takes a lot of time and

effort. If it weren’t for being afraid that you would be killed and taking the blame for you, I wouldn’t have

given it to you. So, don’t even think about it. Don’t worry, you’ll live,” she assured him.

However, he would become a useless person who could no longer practice, which would stop him

from. causing trouble. For a mystical arts practitioner who had always been superior to ordinary people,

this was the greatest pain. This was why Simone deliberately weakened the protective jade pendant;

she wanted him to get injured so that she could counterattack and frame Lewis instead.

The warlock smiled awkwardly and said, “Alright, forget it then.” Simone didn’t want him to die because

she didn’t want to take the blame. As long as he kept himself alive, he could find a way to ask his

master to save him and get him out.

Simone walked over and took out a talisman, placing it in her palm. Reaching out to the warlock, she

said, “Give me those powders. Otherwise, if those people find out, they might suspect that you’re not

dead.”

Knowing that he needed to be cautious now, he transferred all the powders from his hand onto the

talisman in h hand. Unbeknownst to him, a faint aura drifted out of the red jade bracelet Simone was

wearing and quickly entered his body. Simone noticed it. Earlier, when she visited Elbert and

ransferred the powder, he delibemtely avoided touching Simone. Thus, he had no suspicion or

mecessary thoughts.

As Simone left, she also took the flying mini surveillance camera that she had controlled in the corner

of Le corridor. Because she had anticipated that the old man would take action, she bought a seven-

star ladybug-sized flying needle-eye surveillance camera, which flew to the corner of the corridor

ceiling when Joseph noticed that Todrick’s men were acting suspiciously. The purpose was to let the

warlock see for himself the person who had harmed him. In addition, she saved the video as evidence

to show his master in the future.

While the external surveillance was still malfunctioning, Joseph ordered someone to quickly move the

His temperament and modus operandi were even more cruel, and he liked to torture the people he

killed, which was why lie special department used his body to pretend to be the warlock. The

malevolent energy on his body was just a smokescreen. As long as it wasn’t Lewis and his disciple who

came to check, no one would notice anything wrong.

Half an hour later, Joseph reported that the warlock had been cursed and killed, and Todrick started

causing trouble. He insinuated that Joseph and Simone had killed the warlock and asked the minister

to hand over the investigation to him. As long as he was in charge of the investigation, even if there

was no evidence, he could create the evidence.

However, Joseph had already discussed the arrangements with the minister a long time ago, so the

minister naturally wouldn’t agree to Todrick’s mischief and even mentioned the higher-ups to pressure

Todrick, indicating that this matter had come to an end. Now, it was time to explain to Philip and the

others.

Secretly, Todrick resented that the minister was covering up for Joseph. Although he had always known

that he anted Joseph to succeed him, this was unacceptable as he had long considered the Minister’s

positio as his own. So, he had to find a way to use this matter to bring Joseph down.

He is men to inspect the warlock’s body. To his surprise, as soon as they approached, they sensed a
