Chapter 137 It's Not Impossible
- Simone glanced at the messages and discovered that Jodie had been in contact with this number ever since she left the Gray Family. Their conversation indicated that they would change the number after a certain period. They had previously used a different number to communicate. When Jodie left the Gray Family, she messaged this person. The person replied, telling Jodie not to worry about the Gray Family and not to take it to heart. After appearing on the variety show, Jodie messaged this person again, informing them that the Gray Family's attitude towards her had softened. The person then replied, instructing Jodie to find a way to return to the Gray Family. They also wanted to further damage Simone's relationship with the Gray Family, preferably to the point where she would be driven away by them. They had also instructed Jodie to keep a close eye on Simone and prevent her from becoming popular in the entertainment industry. Then, Jodie informed this person about the incident where she was hurt by Simone immediately after it happened. The person told Jodie to endure it for now and that he would make Steven voluntarily seek help from a master for them. They also instructed Jodie to make sure to help the master and obtain the blood of Titus, whom Simone had harmed. It would be even better if they could also get the blood of Harold. After that, there were the text messages exchanged today. In this person's phone, there were no contacts, only direct messages from phone numbers. The other messages were probably about arranging tasks for a few masters. Because the number would be changed every once in a while, there were not many messages, and they were not complete. Simone had implanted a virus in this person's phone. Even if they changed the number, as long as they still used this phone, she would be able to know if there was any activity. From the text messages between the two, it was evident that both Jodie and this person were plotting against her. Moreover, many of the things Jodie did might have been instigated or taught by this person. Simone was curious about who this person that Jodie referred to was. She didn't know if it was Skyler or someone else. However, she knew she needed to keep her guard up.
- The next day, during breakfast, Simone asked Gwen, "Based on your interactions with Skyler, what kind of person do you think he is?"
- Gwen replied, "I haven't spent much time with him. Whenever Mom treats us badly, he would come out and act like a good person. He is very friendly toward me and Leon, always acting like a brother and showing concern, but I just feel that he is fake. And in the end, he is the one who benefits. He looks decent, wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and appears refined and elegant, like a charming nobleman. But I think he is just pretending."
