The Heiress’ Return & Revenge

Chapter 238 Astonished

Simone cried for an unknown time before getting up to freshen up. She walked into the living room and casually picked up a doll from the cabinet. Opening the back of the doll, she took out an ancient key from inside.

Her master had given her this key before he passed away. He had said that one day, she would need it. Presumably, besides the seal, what the duo mentioned earlier was that this key was needed to access what her master had left behind.

The geomancy association had a dedicated storage facility for mystical tools, antiques, and other items for geomancy masters or wealthy elites. Each storage cabinet required a specific method to open. Anyone who tried to open it forcefully or cleverly would face a backlash from the ancient formation outside the storage facility.

Therefore, it was considered the safest storage place in the country. Of course, the storage fee was also astonishing.

Simone pondered for a moment. She decided to wait until the next episode of the variety show to take out the items and have a look.

The headquarters of the geomancy association was located in Cubilis. She had a feeling that she was under supervision now. There was no need to go there to retrieve the items, and she was not short on time either.

She caressed the ancient key and stuffed it into the doll along with the seal. She also attached. a talisman to conceal the aura inside the doll. Carrying these two things with her at all times. was inconvenient, and keeping them in a safe at home or a drawer was even less secure. By placing them in the doll, she could openly display it as a decoration on the cabinet in the living room, and it would not attract attention or reveal that hidden things were inside.

Simone calmed her emotions and then left for the set of the Republican Era drama she was filming. She played the third female lead, while Ethan played the second male lead.

The third female lead had fewer scenes and could be filmed in half a month. This drama had a large investment from the production company.

After receiving her payment from the variety show, she also invested millions. When she arrived at the set, filming had not started. The director was talking to Zac, and she was surprised. Why is he here?

At that moment, both the director and Zac noticed her entering. Zac raised his hand, smiled, and waved at her. “Simone!”

She walked over. “What are you doing here?”
