Chapter 129 Thank You So Much Mr Jefferson

"Mr. Jefferson, does that mean my mother won't be possessed anymore from now onwards?" Jessica asked.

"Nope, but I'm pretty sure someone from your family has previously offended a mystic art practitioner. If it's possible, you should move and settle down elsewhere as soon as possible." Alex cast the puppet aside nonchalantly.

Jessica hesitated because it would involve another fortune if they were to move elsewhere since they had to procure a new property. She couldn't possibly afford a new house because she had recently spent all her mother's savings to purchase a new car.

Alex reassured Jessica as though he was aware of her concerns, "If you don't have enough money, I can always lend you some."

The woman felt extremely touched deep down. She raised her head, looking at Alex in the eyes as she said, "Can you please lend me three hundred thousand? That'll be all I need for the down payment!" "Sure. I'll transfer the money to you once you've made up your mind," Alex nodded before leaving the cemetery.

He was in a hurry to leave because he couldn't wait to get changed. He was soaked in mud due to the intense session he had previously had.

"Okay! Thank you so much, Mr. Jefferson!" Jessica felt a heartwarming sensation deep down and expressed her gratitude as she looked at the man's departing figure.

Once Alex brought Jessica home, she thought of asking him to stay the night, but she had to give up on that thought because her mother was around.

"Thank you so much, Mr. Jefferson. If it weren't because of you..." Suddenly, Jessica was at a loss for words before alighting from the ride. In the end, she looked at Alex with a grateful look, bidding farewell to the

man.

In return, Alex replied while smiling, "Hurry up and get going already. Take a few days' leaves to sort things out if it's necessary. I'll see you in the office soon."

Once he finished his sentence, he steered the wheels of his car and headed home.

By the time he reached home, it was already four o'clock in the morning.

He took a shower and shoved his dirty clothes into the washing machine before tucking himself into bed.

To prevent raising Heather's suspicion, he removed the talisman he had attached to the windows and doors of the house.

Since the vengeful ghost had been got rid of, he no longer had to worry about his family's wellbeing.

However, he still tossed and turned by his son's side on the bed. He had a hard time falling asleep as he kept recalling the incident Jessica and her family had gone through. That incident had allowed him to gain a whole new perspective of the world because he used to think martial arts practitioners were the only dominating ones in the world.

As a matter of fact, martial arts was the foundation of many prominent families from the Northern Territory.

Alex had always been a naysayer regarding mythical beings and mystic arts, but he had just encountered a supernatural being.

In fact, he had taken one of those said supernatural beings out.

Indirectly, he had been exposed to the existence of mystic art practitioners as well.

"It seems like there's a lot more going on in this world! Peace is merely superficial!" Alex sighed.

"I wonder how things are going on Charlie's end?" Suddenly, Alex recalled the existence of Charlie, who had been delaying Susan, his stepmother, on his behalf quite some time ago.

In actual fact, Charlie didn't possess the capability to stop Susan, but he had done Alex a huge favor for delaying her up until now.

Over the past few weeks, Alex spent a lot of time practicing the content of Nine Heaven Scrolls. Since his capability had improved drastically, he was certain he would be able to take them on even if the hitmen Susan sent her way found him.

I guess I'll call Charlie first thing once dawn breaks to check on his latest situation.

Soon, Alex fell asleep upon sorting all the things he had in his mind.

During the morning of the next day, he woke up in time as usual and dropped his son at school before heading to the company.

Once he reached the building, Alex saw Harry and Ginny the moment he stepped into the elevator.
