Chapter 187 Is She Deceiving Me?

The man noticed how Simone recognized him, and he smirked at her. “I knew it. You still remember

me.” Simone walked over and took a seat, looking at the man as she responded to him. “Of course, I

remember. Among all the men who pursued me, you were the least attractive, and you had the most

cliché way of expressing yourself.” Little did she expect that this person would be Jodie’s brother.

During her college days, he had pursued her relentlessly. He even bothered her by standing downstairs

outside her dormitory every day with a bouquet of roses each time. What was even more absurd was

when he lit candles downstairs in the shape of a heart. He even brought a guitar and sang love songs.

She was disgusted by his actions, and she called the security department back then.

He was forced to clean up the mess on the ground before he was taken away by the security. guards.

Every Friday, she would leave the campus. He would wait at the school gate, and he would insist on

taking her out for a meal. His actions annoyed her, and she found it very unpleasant. Leon found out

about this, and he often came to pick her up from school during that time just to assert his dominance

over this person. Gradually, this person stopped coming.

Right then, the man was stunned as he apparently found it hard to believe that she described him in

such a manner. He questioned her with a serious look on his face. “How am I ugly? My way of

expressing love is unique. How am I cliché?” Simone rolled her eyes at him. “You are simply

unattractive, and your attempts at romance are exactly what netizens would call cheesy. Could you

please have some self–awareness?”

It seemed to her then that he pursued her not out of love but with a hidden agenda. No wonder I found

this guy so annoying at that time, Simone thought. She rarely hated someone s much, but her intuition

told her to stay away from this man. In her previous life, her abilities in geomancy and mystical arts

were not very advanced, so she didn’t manage to identify what was wrong with this man. But right then,

as she looked at him, she felt an indescribable disgust.

She could tell that he didn’t just have issues but that they were also quite significant. The man was

taken aback by her response, and his face turned even more sour than before. “You-!”

Simone waved her hand to brush him off. “Alright, enough with the nonsense. Why did you want to see

me?” She had a strong impression of this person because, in her previous life, she happened to see

him on the day that she was kidnapped. She could even recall how he had intentionally bumped into

her on purpose on that day. Then, he apologized first before trying to initiate a conversation with her.

She ignored him and headed off to the parking lot, where she fell into the trap and was kidnapped.

Looking back, it seemed like that was not a coincidence at all. From this new perspective, it also

confirmed her previous suspicion. The ones who kidnapped her and Jodie weren’t really

enemies who wanted to extort the Gray Family, but rather, people who worked with Jodie. It was

proven that Jodie was indeed not innocent.

The man could sense that Simone didn’t want to talk about the past. Yet, he couldn’t help but ask her a

few questions. “Do you remember what my name is?” he asked. Simone had a good memory, so she

naturally remembered his name. But there was no need to tell this guy the truth. “I don’t remember

what your name is. I only remember how unattractive and sleazy you were.”

The man was infuriated again. He considered himself a very charming person, and he had played with

countless women in the past. Many of them fell deeply in love with him. Yet, with Simone, he became

unattractive and sleazy. What kind of taste does this woman have? Is she blind?

Although he pursued her with a hidden agenda, she was so beautiful that he naturally wanted to have

her completely. He hadn’t expected that she would ignore him and avoid him. It was the first time he

had failed so miserably in pursuing a woman, and this made him very unhappy.

He looked at Simone before speaking in a clear tone. “My name is Ernest Wilson. Remember it from

now on.” Simone was speechless. “Why should I remember your name? Can’t you stop being so

sleazy? If you have something to say, then just hurry up and get to it. Otherwise, I’ll leave.

In the

past, this person didn’t tell her that his surname was Wilson. Perhaps he had been afraid that she

would associate his last name with Jodie. After all, Jodie Gray was originally surnamed Wilson before

being adopted by the Gray Family.

When Ernest saw that she really wanted to leave, he spoke hastily. “I just want to ask, what method did

you use to counterattack against me?” He had been stalling all along just to observe Simone’s aura.

But he found that he couldn’t see through her aura at all.

Her aura was still very normal, just like when he pursued her in the past. But he couldn’t determine how

powerful of a geomancy master she was. He wasn’t just unable to resolve his confusion–his doubts

grew even bigger than before.

Ernest didn’t know that Simone had figured out a lot during their conversation. In addition to

intentionally teasing him, she was also observing his aura and sensing his energy. Therefore, from the

moment Simone entered the room, she had already noticed many things. She sneered. “Do you think

I’m foolish enough to answer that?”

Ernest shrugged. “If you don’t want to say it, then forget it. What level is your current strength at? Are

you still in the acquired realm, or have you already entered the innate realm?” he asked curiously.

Simone looked at him and smiled. “Take a guess!”

to say.

Ernest was speechless. This woman is so irritating. He changed the subject. “I have nothing else.

Do you have any questions for me?” He couldn’t get anything out of Simone, and she wouldn’t tell him

anything. So, the only option was to trick some information out of her. He reached out and caressed the

ring on his thumb, attempting to capture Simone’s aura. He figured that he could find an opportunity to

pass the ring to someone after that. Therefore, he made excuses to delay his time with her.

Simone had been observing Ernest all along, and she naturally noticed his subtle actions. She glanced

at the ring he was wearing and sensed that something was amiss. She could discern that it was

capturing her aura. However, she could tell that it would take some time. Despite using a talisman and

employing a secret technique to conceal her aura, she had to be cautious. She couldn’t allow the other

party to detect her aura.

She began counting the seconds in her mind. Then, she gazed at him inquisitively. “Are you and Jodie

full biological siblings?” Ernest was momentarily taken aback before he grinned and responded to her.

“Certainly. But this time around, Jodie isn’t involved at all. I simply couldn’t bear to see you mistreat my

sister, so–I wanted to teach you a lesson. Who would have anticipated that it would backfire?!” This

was the last outcome he expected, and it left him frustrated.

However, even if given the chance to choose again, he would still come to the country and do the same

thing. While Ernest was feeling dejected, Simone made a sudden remark. “But… I can discern from

your facial features that you and Jodie do not share the same mother!” His lie about being full siblings

is merely a facade, huh?He and Jodie have the same father but different mothers, just like Skyler and

Freya. Kids like these sure have womanizing fathers. These men aren’t just extremely fertile; they also

manage to find different women to bear their children.

Of course, Simone didn’t believe this was merely the man being promiscuous, but rather that he had a

purpose in fathering these children. Ernest’s eyes narrowed as he stared at Simone. Then, he put on a

perplexed look. “What are you talking about? How could we not have the same mother? And how can

you decide that just by looking at my facial features? I don’t believe it. He was a cultivator of the innate

realm and had utilized secret techniques to conceal others from using physiognomy on him. How can

Simone possibly see through it? Is she deceiving me intentionally?
