Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 2293

"No garlic or spices, please."

At that, Shannon also chimed in. "No garlic or scallions for me."

The way the two of them clearly weren't treating him like an outsider actually caught Adam a little off guard.

It wasn't the first time he had felt this strange mix of newness and familiarity, like meeting someone for the first time but somehow already knowing them.

Maybe that was why Thalia felt so special to him from the very beginning.

In any case, he didn't find it rude. He didn't mind it at all.

He was just about to agree and tell his assistant to make arrangements when Shannon looked at him and asked, "We've got some relatives back at the villa. Can they come over too?"

They still didn't know exactly what they would find in that dark web livestream, and they would need Fennec and the others nearby just in case.

Adam didn't hesitate to say yes. Before long, from the villa next door came one, two, three… five people and an alligator snapping turtle.

Thalia looked a bit apologetic at his bewilderment. "The turtle's Shannon's. It has separation anxiety."

She then gestured toward the five others. "Don't worry about feeding them. They just need access in here."

Adam quietly pushed down the question of why exactly she had brought so many "relatives" with her and simply nodded. As for food, he wasn't stingy enough to count a meal or two.

With everything set, Shannon and the others quickly gathered in front of the oversized computer screen and entered the account Adam had given them.

Finally, they saw it—the infamous dark web livestream room.

The moment Shannon entered the livestream, she felt the darkness and malice so dense, it was almost tangible.

That overwhelming malice seeped through the screen, saturating every account that logged into the broadcast. Only she and Fennec could clearly sense the full weight of it.
