The Heiress’ Return & Revenge

Chapter 244 It’s Ridiculous

Andrew had been experiencing a string of unfortunate events in the past few days

Today, in particular, his bed collapsed for no apparent reason.

This reminded him of the warnings and reminders from his other two brothers.

He felt a sense of loneliness in the house, as if he and Jo were the only ones there.

There was also an indescribable feeling of unease.

So, he called Luca and Aaron, asking them to come back and keep him company.

Just like Titus, Luca and Aaron had instructed the servants to keep an eye on Andrew and Jodie.

When they found out that Andrew was experiencing misfortune, they were relieved that they had

escaped it and felt sympathy for him.

After receiving the call from their fourth brother, they both comforted him, but when they heard that he

wanted them to come back and stay with him, they both hung up

the phone without hesitation.

They had finally managed to get away, and now they were foolishly going back to deliver groceries to

Jodie.

Especially considering the recent reactions and state of their fourth brother, they were frightened by the

feedback from the servants.

It was just too eerie.

They needed to keep their distance to feel at ease.

Andrew felt lost and heartbroken as his own brothers hung up on him one after another without any

mercy.

He felt abandoned by his brothers.

He suddenly felt like moving out. What should he do? In the following days. Andrew would continue to

experience misfortune even if he didn’t leave the house.

For example, he would choke on water, and even when he didn’t order takeout, he would tid bugs in

the meals prepared by the servants

It was simply ridiculous

He would trip while walking, accidentally bump into walls, or knock over vases.

Not to mention that the location he had arranged for a meeting was canceled, and even the male lead

he had agreed to sign a contract with also canceled the appointment.

This made Andrew want to go crazy,

That day, while having a meal, he was lost in thought and suddenly choked on his food,

He almost couldn’t catch his breath.

Jodie immediately went to pat his back when she saw this.

Her voice was gentle as she said, “Andrew, take it slow.”

However, her eyes betrayed a hint of guilt, as if she thought Andrew losing a third of his luck. was his

own fault for being unlucky.

It was terrifying that he could choke on water or food.

Fortunately, her luck had improved a lot.

Otherwise, if it continued to weaken, she was afraid she would end

up like Andrew.

After Andrew recovered, he felt like he was on the verge of a breakdown. Why was everything going so

wrong lately? He also remembered the reminder from Luca.

Having bad luck once or twice was fine, but these past few days, there wasn’t a single day without

misfortune, and it was just too ridiculous.

So, he drank a few sips of water carefully, feeling a bit more comfortable, and then looked at Jodie. “Jo,

you said before that you wanted to borrow my luck. You didn’t actually take it, did you? That’s why I’ve

been so unlucky lately.”

Jodie laughed. “Andrew, what are you thinking? There’s no such mystical thing in this world. I was just

joking with you, and you took it seriously. If there really was such a thing, you could go find someone

else to borrow luck from and see if it works.”

It’s useless if you haven’t practiced curses.

She couldn’t possibly admit it in front of Andrew.

Andrew was half-believing, half-doubting, “Maybe.”

He still had doubts, though. He himself had noticed that ever since he promised Jodie to give her his

luck, he had been feeling a bit off

Her appearance and skin had already recovered, but her luck was still not as good as it was before

Simone left.

If she could borrow one-third of the luck from the other two brothers, her luck would be overflowing.

If it were before, Andrew wouldn’t have thought much about it, but now, looking at Jodie, he always felt

that when she mentioned Luca and Aaron, it was like talking about two delicious pieces of meat.

He couldn’t help but shudder and immediately dismissed this inexplicable thought. “I told them, but they

said they’re busy and won’t come back for now.”

Jodie was a bit disappointed. “Oh, I see! Then, ask them again after you see Luca.”

Andrew nodded. “Okay!”

He was afraid that Luca wouldn’t take him in, so he packed his things and prepared to go over without

permission.

As Andrew carried his suitcase downstairs, preparing to leave home.

He heard Reuben and Jodie talking in the living room, so he put down the suitcase and walked over.

Just as he reached the doorway, he heard Jodie complaining about how unlucky she had been

recently, and she also mentioned that he had been unlucky too.

He felt that these words sounded familiar.

Then, he heard Jodie say to Reuben, “Reuben, I’ve been having a rough time lately. Can you lend me

some of your luck?”

Andrew was stunned. No wonder he thought it sounded so familiar; this was the same thing Jodie had

tricked them with before.

His heart tightened, and he felt that Reuben wouldn’t agree, so he prepared to go in and stop

them.

Then, he heard Reuben say, “Why should I lend you my luck? Our luck is different.”

He also stopped in his tracks, wanting to hear what the two of them would say next.

In the living room, Jodie looked at Reuben with anticipation and a hint of coquetry. “Reuben, I heard

that if things aren’t going well for you, you can borrow some luck from someone who loves you. And

then things will go more smoothly. Maybe it’s just a psychological comfort, but I want to give it a try.

Maybe I’ll really feel luckier.”

She had already figured out how to coax her brother.

It just so happened that her brother came back today, and they were the only ones in the living room.

She was afraid that if she didn’t quickly borrow her brother’s luck, Titus and the others would

accidentally mention the idea of borrowing luck from her brother.

Her brother would become wary, and it would be troublesome if he didn’t lend it to her, but Reuben

wasn’t so easily fooled.

The Gray Family had invited a geomancy master and the elite believed in geomancy.

Naturally, Reuben also believed in it. He was sensitive to such matters..

He smiled and said, “You… You’re really naive. How can you believe in such a joke? If you feel that

things haven’t been going well recently, I’ll contact Master Gordon in a few days and ask her to take a

look for you.”

Despite Jodie’s disappointing actions, after being spoiled for so many years, he still had some sibling

affection for her.

If he could help, he would.

Jodie was stunned. What’s the point of asking Master Gordon? He’s even more unreliable.

The last time her face hurt, it hurt even more after that bogus master helped.

“There’s no need to ask Master Gordon.” She reached out and hugged Reuben’s arm, shaking it. “I just

want some emotional comfort. Besides, if you lend me some luck, it won’t affect you.”

She continued to act spoiled. “Just indulge me.”
