Chapter 142 Something Below
Upon hearing Romeo''s words, Eliza''s eyes lit up with joy. Harlow, on the other hand, looked
frightened and said, "Dad, no... you don''t mean it too?"
Romeo''s face turned cold as he red at Harlow and warned him, "Harlow, you better not go
around bbering! If your grandmother dies, it''ll be because of Miranda and Willis'' scheming! Do
you hear me?"
Harlow shuddered before nodding fearfully, "Y-yes... I hear you!"
In the next moment, Romeo took a deep breath before dialing a number.
As the second son of the Lowe family, he naturally had trusted confidants within their n.
"Rohan. Get rid of Dr. Hughes who saw my mom today! Make sure it''s clean!"
After hanging up the phone call, Romeo pondered for a while before saying in a low voice, "We
need to find an expert medicine practitioner for this matter - someone who is discreet."
Eliza interjected with an idea, "Oh honey? I heard that Dale Hall from Slocmore came to Ednd
recently. He was even practicing at Lifecare Clinic just days ago. Why don''t we try contacting him?"
"Dale Hall? Would he do something like this?" asked Romeo skeptically.
"It is said that this renowned doctor is very greedy for money - anything can be done if enough cash
is offered," Eliza replied with a cold smirk.
"Alright then... let''s give it a try," agreed Romeo with a nod.
His eyes gleamed with anticipation and sharpness as he continued speaking, "For now though... we
need to deal with Mason first over these next few days! We''ll use Victoria to our advantage by
having those skilled family members assigned to Mason work for us instead. Then we''ll find an
opportunity topletely ruin Mason!"
...
That afternoon L received Sam''s call,
"Mr. Willis, do you have time? Our Reid Group has started construction on one project recently;
would you minding over and checking out its geomancy?" The young master of Reid Group
politely asked.
Actually they already invited another geomancy master but Sam always felt uneasy about
something when working on site here.
Remembering Vincent telling him that L could help if needed; Sam decided to contact him for
assistance.
The boy actually listened to his old man''s words... The key was L''s method of detecting the
curse that night, which made Sam greatly admire and trust him.
L readily agreed and set off after getting the specific address.
The destination was the new development zone in Ednd''s south, where Reid''s Group nned to
build a shopping mall. The project was contracted to McLaughlin Construction.
The McLaughlin family was also a powerful n in Ednd. Otherwise, Darwin could not be friends
with Liam. Only those with simr background strength could y together.
Especially in Ednd''s construction industry, half of the projects were contracted by the McLaughlin
family.
Upon arrival at their destination, Sam greeted L from afar, "Mr. Willis, thank you! I heard this
ce used to be an unmarked grave site before. I''m not too sure about it and wanted your help."
L nodded, "No problem at all!"
As he spoke, he used Dragon Gaze Heavenward Technique''s "Energy Observation" skill to
investigate this ce''s geomancy energy field.
Just then two people walked over quickly.

Leading them was a young man who turned out to be Darwin himself. Beside him stood an elderly
man dressed in yellow robes who looked like a wise sage.
"Hmm? Mr. Willis? Mr. Reid, why is he here?"
Darwin saw L and his face shed with displeasure.
Although L indirectly helped the second-generation group by telling them how to break the
curse that night, Darwin still held grudges against him.
Especially when L teased him with those words while drinkingter on; it made Darwin hold
onto resentment even more tightly.
"I asked Mr. Willis for help checking out the geomancy," Sam said with a smile.
Hearing this statement caused Darwin''s eyebrows furrowed, "Mr. Reid, you can leave this project
matter up us at Mughlin family; you don''t have to worry about it yourself."
"I''ll keep an eye on things," Sam replied calmly.
"Mr. Reid do you distrust me?" Darwin became somewhat unhappy immediately.
At that moment, the wise-looking old man wearing yellow robes coldly snorted heavily as well.
Darwin introduced Master Soidho as one of Ednd''s most famous geomancy masters, "This is
Master Soidho - our renowned geomancy master here in Ednd! Before my family starts any
construction projects, we always ask for Master Soidho''s advice."
"With Master Soidho here, there''s no need to bring in some amateurs. Mr. Reid, you should take Mr.
Willis and leave quickly," Darwin said with a sneer at L before waving his hand.
Master Soidho nodded arrogantly and said, "I''ve already inspected this site. The geomancy is good
and the energy is auspicious. We can start working confidently without any worries. I have already
dispelled all the negative energy left behind by the previous burials."
"Great! Thank you for your help, Master Soidho," Darwin smiled and bowed.
However, at that moment, L looked towards a certain direction of the construction site and
noticed a strand of ck energy lingering there.
"This ce isn''t clean!" he eximed as he walked towards where the ck energy was thickest
before stopping and pointing to a specific spot saying, "Dig down from here!"
Sam, Darwin, and Master Soidho followed him over with different expressions on their faces.
"Mr. Willis what''s going on?" Sam asked curiously.
"There''s something down there!" L replied coldly.
"Something? Kid, are you questioning me?" Master Soidho''s face turned dark as he angrily
questioned him.
"I''m not questioning you; I''m just being cautious in case anything goes wrong because even wise
men make mistakes sometimes." L replied calmly.
"Nonsense!" Darwin sneered, "L, don''t think too highly of yourself;pared to Master
Soidho you''re nothing but an amateur!"
"Master Soidho has been doing this for so many years without ever making any mistakes."
L chuckled softly but didn''t bother arguing with him anymore while Sam''s eyes flickered
slightly before he yelled out to the workers, "Start digging! Dig from here downwards!"
"What do you mean?"
Upon seeing this scene unfold before his eyes, Master Soido became so angry that his face turned
red feeling insulted by their behavior towards him. He snorted coldly then was about to leave while
saying, "Mr. Mughlin, since you don''t believe me then I''ll take my leave."
Darwin quickly apologized saying, "Master Sohido, please don''t be angry! This is Mr. Reid who runs
the Reid Group if I may tell it like it is... this project belongs to them after all."
"He''s just a rich young master ying around with an ignorant friend; why bother arguing with
them? Let them y if they want."
"I''ll double the fee for this consultation, consider it a favor to me," said Darwin. He couldn''t afford to
offend Master Soidho, whose Mughlin''s Constructionpany would be needed for future
projects.
But Sam was insistent on digging, leaving Darwin in a difficult position. He had no choice but to use
money to appease Master Soidho.
However, he was even more annoyed with L, who caused trouble.
"Hmph! I hate these young people who pretend to know everything!"
Master Soidho snorted coldly but didn''t object when he heard about the extra payment. He walked
away calmly and approached L with a stern expression.
"Kid, if you don''t find anything today, you''ll have to apologize andpensate me for damaging my
reputation!"
L raised an eyebrow in response. "And what if we do find something?"
