Chapter 385 Is Simone Deliberately Avoiding Me?

Simone quickly learned about Salma’s situation because Titus would always discuss it in the group.

Even though he didn’t mention her name, it was clear that he intended for her to hear it. However,

Simone paid no attention to it and had no intention of intervening.

Today, she saw Titus mention in the group that the master from the ancient city couldn’t help. They

were planning to invite Master Caddel to their home, and if that didn’t work, they would have to invite

Master

Bailey,

Simone didn’t know if Master Caddel would help, but she was certain that Master Bailey wouldn’t. She

had already realized that Bailey preferred to avoid getting involved in worldly matters, especially

because of her. He had a dislike for Salma and would intentionally avoid helping if he could.

However, Simone didn’t mention this in the group. Instead, she mentioned Titus and said, “Master

Caddel is very powerful. If he intervenes, there is still hope.” She also wanted to see if Caddel would

help.

Titus was surprised by Simone’s reply. He replied, “Dad has already gone to Cloudmist Observatory

today, hoping to invite Master Caddel. He looked terrified and felt a torment that was itchy but couldn’t

be scratched, making him uncomfortable.

That night, Simone heard a message notification sound and opened it to see that it was a message

from Titus in the group. He said, “Master Caddel is in seclusion and not receiving anyone. Dad’s

attempt to hire someone failed.”

Simone saw this message, and a playful smile appeared on her lips. She wondered if it was really

because he was in seclusion and not receiving anyone or if it was intentional. She thought it was the

latter. It was very likely that he didn’t want to confront the powerful sorcerer from the Wocron by helping

Salma. Or maybe there were other reasons. Three days ago, Caddel had sent her a message asking

her to visit. Cloudmist Observatory when she had time.

Simone replied. “Then there’s no way.”

Titus asked tentatively, “Do you think there is a chance to invite Master Bailey to our home?”

Simone replied. “I can’t say for sure about that. You can try it yourselves. However, she knew that if

Bailey refused. Salma would probably blame her again. Of course, she didn’t care.

Steven came back from Cloudmist Observatory without hiring anyone, and Salma was very

disappointed. So, they decided to invite Bailey. Simone also knew that if she went to invite him, he

probably wouldn’t pay any attention to her. There was nothing else Steven could do but swallow his

pride and contact Bailey.

But as soon as he mentioned Salma’s situation, Bailey decisively refused. Steven didn’t want to give up

and kept saying that they could fulfill Bailey’s demands, whether it was money or goods. But Bailey still

refused and impatiently hung up the phone. He even blocked Steven, clearly indicating that he didn’t

want to deal with the Gray Family.

Steven had actually guessed the outcome. Helplessly, he said to his wife, “There’s nothing we can do.

We’ll re to wait for the president of the geomancy association to come out or for the vice president to

Late of mind collapsed. And when will that be?” she asked. “I feel terrible every day, and I can’t.

If this continues, it will harm my health and lifespan She couldn’t help but wonder

aloud, “Is it because of Simone that he’s intentionally refusing?”

Steven immediately reassured her, “It shouldn’t be. Masters with such extraordinary abilities have

peculiar personalities to begin with. He probably just doesn’t want to intervene.”

But Salma shook her head. “You don’t have to lie to me. It’s definitely because of Simone. The

resentment she had suppressed towards her own daughter resurfaced. In a sharp voice, she shouted,

“She doesn’t help me herself, and she won’t let others help me. How can she be so heartless? She

only finds joy in seeing me

suffer.

Titus saw his mother lose control and said speechlessly. “Mom, it shouldn’t be like this. Simone is

straightforward. If she doesn’t want Bailey to help you, she would have said so directly.”

But Salma couldn’t listen. “How can it not be like this? She’s definitely doing it on purpose. Just

because I spoiled Jodie in the past, she wants to retaliate against me, her own mother. And all of you,

seeing me like this, don’t even think about sharing my worries. You all just stand there and talk without

feeling any pain. I should have just thrown you away when I gave birth to you.”

With her eyes turning red, she shouted again, “No, I shouldn’t have given birth to you b*stards.” From

her son to her daughter, none of them were considerate, only infuriating. This made her think of Jodie.

If it were her adopted daughter, she would have been comforted and consoled long ago.

Unable to hold back, she began to vent her anger on her sons. Titus and the others didn’t expect the

conflict to turn towards them. They glanced at each other and immediately slipped away. Only Andrew,

sitting in a wheelchair, couldn’t escape and continued to endure. Andrew muttered, “D*mn it, these

brothers are not good people.”

Salma just wanted to find someone to vent her anger on. So, when the other three sons ran away, she

didn’t dare to scold her husband. Instead, she scolded Andrew fiercely. After venting, she felt a little

relieved. Then, she was still worried about the parasites in her body. Unable to resist, she picked up

landline at home and called Simone. She wanted Simone to talk to Bailey and ask for his help.

the

But when she made the call, she realized that the landline had also been blocked. Salma became even

more furious. “Simone is intentionally avoiding me. Why did I give birth to your rebellious children?”

Andrew was already feeling depressed and annoyed from being scolded. Unable to hold back, he

retorted. “It’s all because of what you did, Mom. Jodie truly lives up to being raised by you; she’s just

A few days ago, he received a voice message from Jodie filled with harsh and malicious words,

constantly blaming him for trying to curse her. Of course, Simone was also scolded along with him.

Seeing his mother like this today, he couldn’t help but think of Jodie.

You know, the two of you have a relationship more like that of a mother and daughter than Simone and

e quickly grabbed a broom and started hitting Andrew with it.

His arms were struck a few times,

He groaned, “I only hit where it hurts. Do you really have to hit me like this?” Then he was hit a few

more times, instinctively trying to avoid the blows, and ended up twisting his back

The sudden pain almost made him lose consciousness.

His state of mind was also on the verge of collapsing as he shouted, “Mom, I’m your own son. If you

want me to be paralyzed for the rest of my life, then go ahead and keep hitting me.”

Salma was indeed affected by Andrew’s words.

He actually compared her to Jodie; what did he think of her? Coupled with the torment of being cursed,

she was starting to lose her sanity.

Just as she raised the broom to strike again, Steven, who had reacted quickly, got up to stop her.

,

Disapprovingly, he looked at his wife and said. “Enough, can you stop this behavior?”

Salma shouted in despair. “Am I behaving badly? How am I behaving badly? I’ll die, and then you’ll be

happy, right?”

Seeing this, Steven finally suppressed his anger and reached out to embrace her.

“Don’t overthink it: we just hope you can get better.”

“I’ll find a way to quickly find someone to help you break the curse.”

While comforting her, he led Salma upstairs.

To prevent her from venting her anger on their son again.

And so, another ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

Jodie was released from the geomancy association and returned to the Gray Family.
