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.

So, he stopped talking to Skyler and closed his eyes, pretending to rest.

In reality, he used a special secret technique to imprint today’s events into the ring.

Skyler glanced at the gemstone ring that emitted a cold light, closed his eyes, and didn’t stop him.

Jodie was puzzled when she saw her own brother suddenly run away.

Isn’t this guy usually very fierce? He actually has moments of fear.

She wasn’t worried about his safety.

She just remembered what her brother said and what she had to do.

Jodie touched the obsidian bracelet on her wrist, and her face was no longer in pain.

The pain in her forehead and her broken hands and feet also decreased significantly.

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.
