True Tycoon Her Empire, Her Rules

Chapter 147

Gentry’s words, at first blush, seemed innocuous, but there was a whiff of a humble brag beneath his resigned tone.

He claimed that his spirits were above mundane concerns like the fortune of all things, implying that he was too exalted for such trivial matters.

Kane and Candace, veterans of showbiz, quickly read between the lines of his statement.

Mervin and Winnie exchanged a knowing glance. Winnie chose not to expose Gentry in front of the audience, saying, “Among the spirits, the fox is the most temperamental. It’s true they aren’t easily called upon for trivialities.”

Gentry was pleased with Winnie’s tactful response, his ego swelling a bit as he said,

“That’s right. That’s why I handle what I can on my own. In our last encounter, I noticed the problem with the house, but I decided it would be better to let you youngsters take the lead…”

In the midst of speaking. Gentry effectively elevated his status.

Granted, he was the eldest among the guests. But what he might not have realized was that in the Mystical Sects, prowess mattered more than age.

Mervin frowned at his words.

Gentry, too, worried he might have come across as too full of himself. Lately, he’d been scrolling through online comments, and many were focused on Mervin and Winnie’s abilities to see through deceptions, overshadowing his efforts to channel his patron spirit, which hadn’t made much of a splash.

Gentry was not satisfied with this outcome.
