Chapter 189 Play the Long Game

Skyler realized that Ernest was testing him.

He replied, “Not very likable.”

That was indeed his impression of Jodie.

Even though he knew that she was his half–sister from the same father, his feelings remained the same.

On the other hand, Skyler found the twins from the Foster Family much more appealing.

Seeing Skyler’s expression, Ernest seemed to still be unaware of the relationship between Skyler and Jodie.

He let go of his worries and said, “It seems like you two are not meant to be.”

Skyler laughed. “I don’t want to have any connection with your sister, let alone be involved with her. Otherwise, I might be unlucky. You’re an example of that.”

Ernest choked, unable to say anything. The conversation for the day ended there.

These things were indeed useful.

She couldn’t help but complain to herself, Why didn’t my brother teach me even though he is good at geomancy? Otherwise, I won’t have to worry about dealing with Simone.

Thinking of Simone, Jodie felt a lot of anger.

Today, she clearly felt that her luck had been significantly weakened.

It meant that she might have lost a lot of fans.
