Upon hearing Titus' words, Jodie's attention shifted away from herself as she became consumed with anger. Titus was growing increasingly disrespectful; he even treated her this way in front of Steven. Feeling unjust, she sat back down and tightly gripped her bracelet. She wondered how she could regain his favor in the future. Titus felt the pain in his chest and stomach intensify. He looked at Steven and said, "Dad, Master Gordon is quite cunning! After he finished helping us, I felt even more pain." As he observed Titus' pale face and the sweat on his forehead, Steven felt a twinge of sympathy for his son. However, he also saw this as an opportunity to teach his second son a lesson. He sighed. "Endure it for now; let's see how he is when he returns." If the condition hadn't improved, the only solution would be to locate Simone. Titus had an urge to hit the wall. After a moment of contemplation, he tightly grabbed Luca's hand. Since his younger brother had just acted so despicably, he would fulfill his wish. Luca didn't expect Titus to be serious. He was momentarily stunned before screaming in pain. "Ah, Titus! Be gentle!" Titus not only didn't go easy, but he exerted all his strength, venting his pain. He nearly dislocated Luca's hand. Luca screamed in agony and tried to shake off Titus' torment, but he couldn't. So, he called out to Steven, "Dad, do something about Titus. He wants to harm me." However, he only received a cold glance from Steven. "Wasn't this what you asked for just now? Titus is simply fulfilling your wish." He had never expected much from his third and fourth sons. Even if they were just idle playboys who only knew how to eat, drink, and have fun, they couldn't be foolish enough to be led astray and not realize it, or even foolish enough to not distinguish between family and outsiders. Luca was speechless. His own father was biased. He was angry, but he didn't dare to show it in front of Steven. He could only endure the torment inflicted by Titus. Unable to bear it any longer, Freya took the initiative to ask Harold for the jade pendant, but Harold seemed to be asleep and didn't respond. Feeling embarrassed, she apologized to Steven and rushed out of the office in tears. She went to the secretary outside and requested an ice pack to soothe her face.After Freya left, Titus looked at Harold and said, "Harold, I didn't expect you to be so heartless! You made the little beauty cry and run away." Only then did Harold open his eyes and say indifferently, "What does it have to do with me?" He glanced at Jodie, who still had tears in her eyes. "Didn't you also make Jo cry? Look at how pitiful she is. You didn't even hug and comfort her." If you want to hurt me, let's do it together! Let's see who can hurt the other one harder. When Harold said this, the expressions on Titus and Jodie's faces changed. They both looked at Steven, whose face became even more displeased. Titus released his foolish younger brother and went to help Harold to his feet, supporting him with a hint of gritted teeth. "Come, let's go to the restroom." Harold didn't resist and informed Steven before they both left.However, they didn't go to the restroom; instead, they went to an empty balcony. Once inside, Titus had a serious expression and asked, "What did you mean just now? Were you deliberately saying it for my father to hear?" Harold saw the pain in his eyes and handed over the jade pendant he was holding. "Take this to ease the pain for now." Titus was momentarily stunned, but without hesitation, he took it and held it in his hand. The pain did indeed alleviate significantly. Harold said, "So, you realize that your relationship is far from normal?" Titus frowned. "Still, you didn't have to mention it deliberately in front of my father." The Gray brothers had been scolded by their father before because they were too close to Jodie. Harold thought for a moment and decided to speak his mind. "This adopted daughter of your family is not ordinary. If you can see that now, don't get any more involved, or else your family will be ruined. I'm just warning your father. After all, your two younger brothers seem to be enjoying it." No matter what, they had been childhood friends for so many years, and Harold didn't want the Gray Family to be destroyed because of this adopted daughter. Titus rubbed his temples and said, "Don't mention those two idiots. I can't stand them anymore." Harold raised an eyebrow. "Weren't you also one of those idiots before?" Titus was at a loss for words as he glared at Harold. "Can't we have a civilized conversation? Although I spoiled Jodie before, I haven't reached the level of those two idiots." Because she was an adopted sister and not a blood relative, she was usually obedient and well-behaved, so he spoiled her like a beloved pet.Just like how he took care of a favorite pet. When the pet was bullied, he, as the owner, would help, but now that he realized the pet wasn't as well-behaved as he imagined, he quickly withdrew. Harold felt waves of pain coursing through his body. Unable to suppress his pain, he commented, "Your sister is truly ruthless!" Titus held the jade pendant and felt helpless. "Indeed, she has a bad temper now, and I can't afford to provoke her! You deserve it too. Instead of mistreating someone else, you had to mistreat her best friend." Harold sneered. "I didn't mistreat Gwen. You were the one who was harsh toward your own sister. No wonder you two are blood siblings." Titus didn't want to discuss this matter. If he had known it would turn out like this, he wouldn't have treated his own sister that way for Jodie. He changed the subject and asked, "That beautiful girl by your side, is she just for fun?" Harold retorted. "Do you think I'm as foolish as you and your brothers?" Titus found himself at a loss for words. This guy's mouth is really irritating, as he always hits where it hurts. He chuckled. "Then, why did you hang around with Gwen?" Harold helplessly said, "I didn't hang around with Gwen." Then, he added with a deeper meaning, "She's just useful, that's all." Titus playfully remarked, "Is she there to warm your bed?" Harold's expression turned dark as he retorted, "Get lost. I don't have such poor taste." Intrigued, Titus inquired, "Then, why is she useful?" Harold gave him a disdainful glance and responded, "Knowing too much won't benefit you."He then took out a cigarette and offered one to Titus before lighting his own. Titus also lit his cigarette. As he observed Harold's serious expression through the smoke, he sensed a hint of hostility that he had never seen before. Deciding not to inquire further, he remained silent. The two of them smoked several cigarettes in succession before returning to the office together. Before entering the room, Titus handed the jade pendant back to Harold. Upon their return, Freya had already arrived. When she caught sight of Harold, a trace of resentment and hurt flickered in her eyes. However, Harold did not acknowledge her presence. After a while, Master Gordon arrived with an elderly man wearing a gray robe. He introduced him to Steven and the others, saying, "This is my senior, Master Shane." Steven and the others greeted him in turn. Master Shane nodded and glanced at Titus and the others. He then took out a compass and instructed, "The four of you, place your hands on this compass." Titus was the first to place his hand on the compass, causing it to move slightly. The other three followed suit. Master Shane carefully examined the four of them. "It seems that you were affected by negative energy on the day of the injury. However, the negative energy dissipated quickly from your bodies, leaving no trace but causing you unbearable pain." Steven asked, "Were you able to detect the negative energy, Master Shane?" Master Shane shook his head and replied, "No, I made the judgment based on my experience." He added with significance, "The geomancer who caused the negative energy is very cunning, leaving no evidence but inflicting excruciating pain." Titus inquired, "Can you help us resolve it?" He was not interested in anything else; he simply wanted to alleviate his suffering.
