Chapter 46 The Young Heir of the Shaws

Tina said, “We should contact the Shaws right now and tell them we found the heir.”

Thomas retorted, “Are you stupid? Are you trying to take credit from the Crawfords?”

The Crawford family came across the boy. Who were the Millers trying to fool by taking credit for it?

Tina anxiously uttered, “What do we do?”

The Shaws and Crawfords were two of the three giants of Clodston. They were the movers and shakers of the city compared to the Millers…

Now that an opportunity to kiss up to the giants was presented before them, they did not want to lose out on it.

Thomas fell into deep ponder before exclaiming, “I got it!”

There was a telephone number making rounds in their community amid the search for the Shaw family’s heir.

Thomas dialed the number and sounded concerned over the phone. “Hello, is this Mr. Shaw?

“I’m Thomas Miller… Yes, yes. Here’s the thing. The Crawford family’s heiress stumbled upon your son while running around the fields. Mr. Anthony told me to call you…”

After Thomas hung up on the call, Tina showered her husband with compliments. “Wow, that was smart of you! You have a way with words, pleasing both families all at once.”

Thomas was pleased with himself.

Through the examples of the adults around her, Cheryl believed she picked up on something…

Back in the Crawfords’ tent, Gilbert cleaned the boy’s face and changed his clothes. He finally had a good look at the boy’s face.

Looking solemn, he pulled Anthony to a corner outside.

Lilly got down next to the air mattress and stared at the boy lying there.

Pablo was showing Lilly the trick to summon souls.

“His soul is not complete. While our souls remain within our bodies for the most part, a piece of our souls tends to wander off, so it’s easy to lose it.

“The boy had a near-death experience, and now the piece of his soul is missing.

“Here. I’m going to teach you how to summon the soul back.”

Lifting her chin, Lilly seemed to be missing the point as her attention was elsewhere.

“Master, why can’t we chain the soul together if a piece of our souls tends to wander off?”

Pablo choked. He waved his arm and answered, “You’ll understand with time.”

Afraid of Lilly’s millions of questions, he added.
