Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 2547

Benjamin took Shannon's hand gently, his eyes resting on the golden marks glowing faintly in their palms.

For a long moment, he said nothing. Then, barely a whisper, he asked, "Do you regret it?"

If it weren't for him, she could've become the next Divine Power. He knew she didn't regret her choice now, but time moved differently for people like them.

Centuries could pass in the blink of an eye, so would she someday look back and wonder what might've been? Would she ponder the what-ifs like Elowen did?

Shannon didn't answer right away. Instead, she looked at him and asked in return, "Do you think Elowen ever did?"

Benjamin stilled, the question catching him off guard. But before he could reply, Shannon gave the answer herself.

"Our souls touched in the domain once. The version of her in the past might've had regrets, but she never once felt regretful."

She paused, turning fully to face him with an unwavering gaze. "Neither do I."

She would never regret it, not in a century or a thousand years. Even now, she was still grateful she had come back—back to him, back to all the people who loved her.

Benjamin's chest tightened at her words. His dark eyes, always so still and quiet, grew deeper as he leaned in toward her without thinking.

However, she beat him to it. She leaned close to his ear, her voice soft and playful, before solemnly whispering, "Did you know? A heart with attachments can never become the Divine Power."

Just like Elowen once had, and now Shannon.

From the start, they had made their choice. Meanwhile, the late Lucan, Benjamin, and everyone in the domain today were all her attachments.

Instead of living in regret, she wanted to live her life to the fullest.

As her words fell, her lips brushed lightly against his cheek. A kiss, feather-soft, like a memory, gently descended.

Benjamin stilled, then turned to her, eyes locked, gaze unreadable for one fleeting second. Then, without hesitation, he pulled her close, arm firm around her waist, and brought his lips to hers.

As their breaths mingled, golden light flickered softly around them, drawn in by the closeness of their shared heartbeat.

Behind Shannon, her ten tails unfurled. The great fox tails swayed gently behind her, resonating with her spirit.
