Female Novel
Chapter 253
That same night, Alex returned to Nebula City. The first thing he did was to deliver the alligator meat toFlynn and the others.
At the same time, he got Flynn to buy him an alchemy pot before heading home.
A short while after he returned, a knock on the door was heard,
However, Mrs. Jennings was watching TV in the hall so he didn’t get to the door.
“Who are you looking for?” Carmen asked curiously when she opened the door and saw Stefan,Autumn, and Desmond.
As the three of them looked like influential people, Carmen didn’t dare to be rude.
“Hello, I am Stefan Jones. May I know if Alex is home?” Stefan smiled politely.
“Are you the head of the Jones family, Stefan Jones?” Carmen looked at Stefan in shock.
The Jones family was famous in Nebula City as antique collectors. Everyone from the antique circleknew who they were. So, what do they want from that piece of trash?
“Yes, that’s me.” Stefan maintained his smile.
“Ah! So you are really the head of the Jones family. Please come in.” Carmen quickly welcomed themin.
Inside the house, Stefan and Desmond scrutinized the living room’s decoration. After that, they had aneven lower opinion of Alex.
Meanwhile, it was especially tough for Desmond to accept that he had to apologize to a live–in son–in–law. The thought of it made his blood boil.
“Mrs. Jennings, may I know where is Alex?” Autumn asked.
Just when Carmen was about to shout for him, Alex came out from his room.
“Mr. Jefferson,” Autumn quickly greeted.
“Mmm.” Alex nodded as he looked towards Stefan and Desmond.
“This is my father,” Autumn introduced. As for Desmond, she didn’t need to do any introduction as Alexalready knew who he was.
As Alex was looking at him, Stefan smiled. “Mr. Jefferson, recently, the Jones family have been havinga lot of problems. So, we would like you to conduct a purification ceremony at our home.”
“I’m not free. Please look for someone else,” Alex replied plainly.
As Autumn knew that Alex was still angry at Desmond, she shot a glance at him.
Despite being extremely reluctant, Desmond frowned and stepped forward. “Mr. Jefferson, I’m sorry. Iwas being impulsive that day,”
When Alex saw that Desmond’s apology didn’t even contain an ounce of sincerity, he sneered, “Whoare you? I don’t know you. Please leave my home or else don’t blame me for chasing you out.

As his expression darkened, Desmond said in a grim voice, “Aren’t you just a live–in son–in–law? Whyare you being so arrogant? Uncle, please believe me. This man is a fraud, for he’s not a geomancer atall.”
He looked at Stefan as he spoke. As long as Stefan stood on his side, he wasn’t afraid of Alex.
“You think I’m a fraud?”
Alex smiled as he took a quick look at the point between Desmond’s eyes. All he saw was an AuraCloud condensed with evil. He sneered, “Last night, you must have seen a ghost, am I right? In fact, it’sa female ghost.”
Autumn and Stefan turned towards Desmond.
“H–h–how did you know?” Desmond cried out in shock and he looked like he had just seen a ghost.novelbin
He couldn’t believe that Alex knew about the matter as he had never told anyone about it, including hisparents.
How did Alex know?
At that moment, Desmond’s eyes were filled with horror.
