Chapter 233 We Were Oblivious Before
After hastily exiting the room, Titus was reluctant to be alone. He was fearing another encounter with Jodie.
Therefore, he headed to Luca and Aaron’s door, where he knocked and asked them to join. him in the garden.
Once they were seated, Titus finally let out a sigh of relief.
Luca observed Titus’ sweaty forehead and anxious demeanor, expressing concern, “Titus, what’s wrong? You look like you’ve seen a ghost.
Upon opening a bottle of water he had brought from home, Titus took several big gulps before responding, “It’s even scarier than encountering a ghost.”
Just then, Harold’s voice emanated from his phone, inquiring, “Titus, are you okay? What happened just now? We almost bought into it.”
Upon recalling the recent video chat with Harold, Titus took out his phone from his shirt. pocket and turned the camera back to himself.
Terrified, he explained, “It’s really strange. If I hadn’t experienced it myself, I wouldn’t dare to believe such a thing exists. You all saw or heard what happened after I entered the room.”
He continued, “No wonder she wanted me to hold her or support her. It turns out that after she touched me, she could use some kind of sorcery on me. Just now, she grabbed my hand and asked me to share half of my luck with her. In my heart, I wanted to refuse, but my mind only had one thought-I could give her anything. And then I couldn’t help but say that I agreed. Fortunately, I bought the talisman from Simone painted with Harold. Before I finished speaking, my chest suddenly felt hot, and I instantly regained my clarity.”
Titus remembered the talisman. He reached out to open the collar of his shirt, revealing at red string.
He touched it, finding his hand covered in black ash.
“Look, the talisman worked. It broke Jodie’s spell on me and burned itself into ashes. Fortunately, I ran fast. Otherwise, I don’t know if I would have been affected again.”
While Titus had believed Simone’s words before, the firsthand experience heightened the impact.
Harold looked at him with an expression that conveyed, “I knew it,” and “We sensed something was off with you.”

Leol furrowed his brow and asked, “Does she have this kind of ability, too?” He had witnessed a different side of Jodie today compared to her previous innocent and obedient self.
Not to mention her revealing outfit, the things she said to Titus were simply shocking.
Titus said, “I don’t know if she has any special abilities.”
“Did any of you watch the video just now?”
Harold replied, “I did. As soon as you entered the room. I found Jodie lying there dressed like that. So, I felt that something was off and quickly clicked on the video.”
Titus gave him an appreciative look. “You’re quick-witted.”
“Send the video to the other group so Simone can watch it.”
He added, “I don’t dare to go back to the room anymore. I want to find Simone and buy two more talismans.”
The talisman’s effect was clearly good. He needed to have one more on him to feel safe.
He used to think Simone was charging too much-five million dollars for a talisman. It was the first time he had heard of it, but he had accepted it. Now, he felt it was worth it.
Harold touched the talisman on his chest, feeling a surge of security. “This thing is indeed. useful. Thankfully, I was wise at that time. Luckily, you followed me and bought it that day. Otherwise, you would have lost your luck by now.”
He sighed again. “Your precious sister is really ruthless. How can she directly ask you for half of your luck?”
In the past, the Gray brothers were indeed very fond of Jodie.
Whenever they went out together, they would bring her gifts.
Whenever she had a problem, the Gray brothers would protect her nervously. To receive this kind of betrayal, in the end, was quite pitiful.
Titus’ face darkened. “Indeed, although I’ve been suspicious of her lately, I haven’t done anything to her. I loved her for more than ten years, but I got this result. It’s really ridiculous”
She asked for half of his luck for granted. She never thought about what would happen to him after he lost so much luck.
Judging by her appearance, she holds a lot of resentment toward me.”

Harold said, “She treats you guys like friends turned enemies.”
“She believes she deserves your love and efforts. Once you withdraw it, she feels owed an apology and resents you.”
In a joking manner, Harold remarked, “She even left you with half of the luck. Is she planning to raise you again and then betray you later?”
In response to this, Titus was irritated and retorted, “Get lost! You’re the one who should be betrayed.”
It appeared that he took Simone’s metaphor about raising pigs to heart.
He added, “Stop talking nonsense. Quickly send the video to that group. I’m hanging up.”
Being serious about important matters, Harold affirmed, “Alright!” Then, he promptly sent the video to the group after the call ended.
On Titus’ side, Luca and Aaron were both fixedly looking at him.
They questioned, “Titus, what’s really going on?” After having heard Titus and Harold’s conversation, they already had a rough idea.
Titus did not hold back and recounted the entire incident that had transpired in the room.
After finishing, he received the video sent by Harold in the group, which he then clicked on and allowed Luca and Aaron to watch.
Upon viewing it, both Luca and Aaron shivered.
The video from the moment Titus entered the room revealed Jodie’s seductive. catching them completely off guard.
