Damian’s expression darkened as a dangerous glint flashed across his eyes. When Stefan saw it, a cold fear crept upon him.

Right then, Desmond, who was beside them, said, “Uncle Stefan, I told you that Alex is a fraud. He has taken the family money and gone to enjoy his life. You have to get the money back, or we’ll sue him for fraud. We’ll send him to jail for the rest of his life!”

Stefan turned to shoot a glare at Desmond, but the latter was fearless. He continued, “Uncle Stefan, I don’t think you know about this, but Alex had used the credit card you gave him today to buy many items for his personal use at Breezeworth Hall, He even spent one hundred million to get the Monoceros bone that Mr. Kline has set his eyes upon. Alex provoked Mr. Kline! You have to take back the card. Otherwise, even one billion isn’t enough for him to spend.”

Stefan froze, realization dawned on him about why Damian was helping the Jones family.

So Mr. Kline is after the Monoceros bone too.

Mr. Jefferson has said that the Monoceros bone could be used to get rid of my family’s bad luck. It seems like he has stuck to his words. He must have bought the Monoceros bone to resolve my family’s trouble.

Yet, while Mr. Kline is upset with Mr. Jefferson, he can also resolve my family’s trouble. I’m at a loss as to what I should do!

Stefan was conflicted. These two geomancers were the real deal, and he did not dare to offend either.

Beside them, Autumn was frowning. She did not know why but she felt that Damian was the fraud instead.

Other than the odd fact that Alex was the live–in son–in–law of the Jennings family, he did not seem like a bad person. He often gave off a mysterious aura. His eyes, especially, were like murky lake water, and no one could see what was in them.

“Shut up.”

Stefan glared at Desmond, frustrated by his words. Why can’t my nephew understand what I’m trying to do?

He turned to respectfully say, “Mr. Kline, M–Mr. Jefferson has also helped the Jones family.”

“You still don’t believe that he’s been fooling the Jones family?” Damian sneered.

“What do you mean?” Stefan frowned.

Damian replied, “I heard that he bought the Monoceros bone to resolve your family’s trouble. Is that right?”

Stefan nodded.

“The auction was in the afternoon. It’s already night now. Why isn’t he here yet?” Damian queried.

“I…” Suspicion began to rise in Stefan’s heart.

That’s right. It’s been hours since Alex bought the Monoceros bone. Why isn’t he here yet? Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

Is Mr. Kline right? Is he really lying to us?

Damian glanced at Stefan and smirked. “Monoceros bone is the remnants of a mystical creature. It’s a rare treasure, and it benefits those who practice martial arts. Every martial artist wants it. However, it can’t ward off evil. Hence, I’m sure that Alex is actually a poor man. He must’ve somehow found out that Breezeworth Hall was going to sell a Monoceros bone, that’s why he set the Jones family up so that he can get your money to buy the Monoceros bone.”

Stefan was bewildered. The more he thought about Damian’s words, the more reasonable he found it.

“Uncle Stefan, Mr. Kline is a well–known geomancer from the Mountain of the Beasts. You can’t possibly compare a fraud like Alex with him. Everybody’s problems were solved by Mr. Kline, and he didn’t even ask for a cent! On the other hand, not only did Alex cheated lots of money from our family, but now he has our family’s credit card. He’s been using it to buy things he likes at the auction. If that’s not fraud, I don’t know what is! And you, you’re at fault too. How could you possibly give him so much money? If words of this spread to the public, the entire Nebula City will say that the Jones family are a bunch of fools!” Desmond complained.

“B*stard! How dare he fool the Jones family. This is unforgivable!” Stefan fumed as he stomped his foot. Now, there was no doubt in Stefan’s mind that Alex was a fraud.
