Chapter 2 Hello, Mr. Bryant

In her previous life, Thea was an orphan whose parents died in a car accident not long after her birth. She grew up in an orphanage.

At the age of five, she was taken away by a geezer.

Then her life changed drastically... She became a disciple of the Mystic Sect. With her enlightened Inner Eye, she could see people's past and the future.

Later the geezer and her adopter passed away, and she inherited his legacy and lived on fortune-telling. Some people called her oracle while others called her feng shui master respectfully.

Thea hadn't expected a mother in this life. When she just learned it, however, her mother jumped to her death before her eyes.

The memories of her 'host' flashed across her mind. Mrs. Jordan was such a gracious woman that she took care of the sick 'Thea' and David, apart from tolerating Andrew, her cheating husband...

Mrs. Jordan's blood flowed all over the ground and reached Thea's feet, making her sick.

The guests were all screaming while some timid women passed out. The entire Jordan family was in such chaos that even the bodyguards failed to control it.

"Quickly call an ambulance!"

"Two ambulances!"

Thea drew back her feet, only to find her white high heels stained with Mrs. Jordan's blood.

"Throw her out! She's a jinx!" That young married woman snapped her order to the bodyguards.

Thea was soon picked up and thrown out of Jordan's house.

Now, most of the guests had left... Those higher-ups didn't like to see such kind of bloody event and certainly scurried away as fast as they could.

The rain started to patter down.

Standing lonely under a tree that couldn't keep out the wind and rain, Thea saw two ambulances roaring past. David and Mrs. Jordan were carried away.

Even though it was only a glance, she knew that Mrs. Jordan was dead and could not be revived.

The moment when she was kicked out of Jordan's house, Thea noticed that her Inner Eye remained.

All the members of the Jordan family went to the hospital, leaving Thea standing alone outside Jordan's Mansion.

She was well aware that people would not allow her to enter the hospital. People in this world were snobbish. Regarding her status as a 'fake phoenix', probably no one was willing to help her.

After a moment of pondering, Thea turned around and headed to the downtown in her memory.

It was getting dark, and she should find a shelter. Luckily, her host had an apartment in downtown, and she could stay there.

A black stretched limousine followed her quietly.

After walking for a while, Thea halted, turned her head, and looked at the limousine curiously. Looked like she was followed?

The car window was rolled down, revealing a handsome yet icy face of a male. He had bushy brows, dark eyes, and awful air. There was a tinge of penetrating coldness in his gaze.

"Get in." The man said slowly and then rolled the window back up.

Not a masochist, Thea calculated the distance according to her memory and knew there was a long way to go from here to the downtown. Therefore, she got in the man's car without hesitation.

At a glance, she confirmed the identity of the man... Shawn Bryant, the helm of the Bryant Group and the current CEO of the company in Central Region.

This man was cold, and his style was vigorous and resolute. In the business world, he was known as the ruthless 'Shawn Wolf'.

Knowing her distance, Thea told him the address as soon as she got in the car, "Thank you, Mr. Bryant. I'm going to Flora International Apartment."
