Carmen rushed out too. But when she saw that no one bothered about her, she left it at that.
Holding the exquisite box in her hands, she quickly closed the door and opened the box.
The moment Alex and the group reached the ground floor, Desmond rushed to open the door of theirX7 for Alex. He wanted to demonstrate his change in attitude to Alex.
After shooting Desmond a glance, Alex took out the keys of the R8 parked beside, unlocked the car,and got in.
Seeing what just happened, Stefan, Autumn, and Desmond gaped in disbelief.
Isn’t Alex the Jennings family’s live–in son–in–law? How can he afford a car as expensive as the R8?
It costs more than two million!
However, when they remembered how Alex donated away the ten million reward the city councilawarded him, driving a car that cost two million wasn’t so unbelievable.
Besides, the R8 might have been his wife’s.
But wait, wasn’t the Jennings family business bought over by the Four Seas Corporation?How can hiswife still afford such a luxurious car?
Autumn had done her homework on Alex’s background. Both Alex and Heather were not valued withinthe Jennings family. Hence, there was no way they could afford such an expensive car.
“It appears that Mr. Jefferson has a secret identity,” Autumn remarked.
“Of course. I know the Jennings Corporation well. Even Demi Jennings only drives a four hundredthousand Volkswagen. The rest of the Jenningses drive cars that cost less than five hundredthousand.”
Therefore, he did not believe that Alex was purely a live-in son-in-law.
“You guys should head home first. I’ll drop by an occult shop to get some supplies,” Alex instructedafter winding down the window.
“Oh, alright. Sorry for the trouble,” Autumn replied with a nod.
However, Stefan quickly tugged at her sleeve and gave her a look.
Realizing what he meant, Autumn quickly walked towards the R8 and suggested with a smile, “Mr.Jefferson, why don’t I come with you. I can show you the way to our home later.”
Alex nodded as he didn’t know where the Jones family mansion was anyway.
After Autumn got in, Alex started driving.
“Mr. Jefferson, what are you going to buy?” Autumn asked.
“Items for exorcism,” Alex replied.
Raising her eyebrows, she smiled wryly in her heart.novelbin

Autumn wasn’t aware that although Alex knew geomancy, he was not a Master Geomancer and didn’tdo it for a living. Hence, he did not have those supplies ready.
When he saw Autumn’s expression, Alex could guess that she was having some doubts but he didn’texplain.
Strength could only be conveyed by actions instead of words. There was no point in being vocalwithout showing any results.
Soon, they arrived at an occult shop. After grabbing a bunch of holy paper, cinnabar ink, and otheritems, he returned to the car.
“Do you have cocks at home?” Alex asked.
“A few,” Autumn replied with a nod.
Ever since their house was haunted, someone suggested to them that cocks could help drive awaydemons. Hence, they bought a couple of them.
Little did she expect they would actually come into use now.
“Alright, let’s go then.” Alex nodded and drove towards the Jones family villa.
Along the way, Autumn gave him directions and they arrived in half-an-hour.
