Chapter 488 The Expected Has Arrived
Simone remained motionless. So, Reuben had no choice but to seek assistance from the geomancy association.
However, this issue was given to Jodie by Mr. Lewis, and it could only be resolved by achieving a Divine
Starc
Despite attempts by other skilled masters, all of them failed.
After receiving advice from a master, Reuben went to Cloudmist Observatory, hoping to seek help from Master Sage.
The person who greeted Reuben was the senior apprentice of Master Sage.
He examined Reuben.
The senior apprentice said, “Mr. Reuben, I can solve the venom on your body
“But I will need a small sample of your blood.”
Initially, the senior apprentice expected he would agree without hesitation. However, he hesitated for a
moment
The senior apprentice was curious and asked, “Mr. Reuben, what concerns do you have? Reuben returned to reality and replied, “It’s not that I have concerns, but I suddenly remembered that there is something very important at the company today that I have to take care of.”
Upon hearing the request for blood, he suddenly recalled the incident where Master Gordon also wanted his brother’s blood.
He also remembered the dream his stepmother had after returning from a business trip.
She mentioned that Simone had the same dream. They killed her in the dream.
He asked with a sense of urgency, “Can I go to the company first to handle the matter and then come back here to seek the master’s help?” The senior apprentice smiled and replied, “Of course. No problem.”
Reuben hurriedly left.
The senior apprentice’s smile turned into a frown.
After returning to Cebros, Reuben used his new assistant’s phone to call Simone.
Simone was currently on set filming for a fantasy drama.
The role of the female lead in this drama changed, and the character previously played by Jodie became. the second female lead. A talented young actress who often played the role of a malicious supporting female character in the industry took over the part.
The original male lead became the supporting male character, and Leon duin’t withdraw from the drama. He insisted on continuing to play the role.

After finishing her scenes for the day, Simone sat down I
When she saw an unfamiliar number, she answered the call.
Then, she heard Reuben’s voice, “Simone, it’s me.”
Simone asked, “What’s the matter?” According to Sc’mbag No. I’s character, he shouldn’t be forcing her since she had previously rejected him.
He explained, “Today, I went to Cloudmist Observatory to seek help in resolving the venom. However, the senior apprentice of Master Sage mentioned that they require a small sample of my blood.”
“I’m concerned that if they take my blood, it will have an impact on both of us. So, I want to ask if be willing to provide it.”

will
Although he was unhappy that Simone didn’t help him, he didn’t want to harm her again because of himself.
And even if he gave his blood, he didn’t know if the people from Cloudmist Observatory would use it against him in the future.
Simone was somewhat surprised.
It wasn’t a coincidence that the senior apprentice wanted Reuben’s blood, but it was surprising that he came to ask her.
Of course. She also understood that besides not wanting to harm her, he should also be afraid that his blood would be taken away, which would be detrimental to him.
He was much smarter than the other four sc*mbags.
If it had been Sc*mbag No. 2 or 4, they should have been given away then.
Sc mbag No. 2 was also cunning, and Se mbag No. 5 should have considered her as well.
Simone said, “It’s okay. You can give it to them.
Reuben thought for a moment and asked, “What if they take my blood to harm you? I know your birth time, and whoever wants to harm you will know, too.”
Simone smiled indifferently. “I know what I’m doing. You can give it to them.”
Her birth time was now equivalent to that of a dead person, completely useless.
The one who could harm her was the thine of her rebirth.
Apart from herself, no one else knows about it.
And how could the tiger’s cub be lured out of its den without entering it? How could the snake be enticed without giving blood? Reuben felt relieved after hearing Simone’s words. “Okay. I understand.”
After ending the call, Reuben icturned to the company, signed an important document, and returned to Cloudmiu Observatory.

After Master Sage’s senior apprentice took a few drops of Reuben’s blood, he
“Since Jodie isn’t present, the venom is only partially removed.”
“It will not harm your body anymore, but some lingering effects remain.”
“If you want to recover fully, you’ll have to wait for her to be present, and then I’ll remove the remaining part.”
Reuben frowned and asked, “What are the lingering effects? The senior apprentice replied, “You won’t be able to have intimate relationships with other women.”
He was speechless. So, he would have to live like a eunuch to overcome loneliness. He questioned his mind but didn’t show it on his face. “Okay. I’ll wait for Jodie to return and then ask the master to help remove the remaining part.

The senior apprentice nodded. “No problem.”
He saw Reuben off.
Reuben felt frustrated and contacted Simone again, informing her about the situation.
He also asked if it was necessary to bring Jodie back from abroad.
Simone calculated and said that Jodie would find an opportunity to come back.
She told him to wait for Jodie to return on her own.
She also said that if Master Sage’s senior apprentice messed up later, she would help him.
Seeing that Reuben didn’t immediately give blood and came to consult her, she was also unwilling to let Jodie succeed.
With Simone’s assurance, he finally felt relieved.
Only a short time after, Simone’s movie was released.
She posted a promotional Facebook post, and Zac and others shared it.
Many negative comments stated that such a niche movie would only attract a few viewers.
However, Simone’s popularity was too strong, and directors and actors from half the entertainment industry followed suit and reposted it on Facebook.
After all, she was not just a top-tier actress but also the leading star of the most promising star studio.

This piqued the curiosity of many passersby, who were captivated by Simone’s acting and touched by the uplifting storyline.
Word-of-mouth for the movie continued to improve, and the box office numbers soared, making it the year’s surprise hit.
Neither the director nor the other actors had anticipated such an explosive success for the movie.
Initially, the director had set his sights on awards, but he never expected the film to receive such high praise and achieve box office success.
Simone won the Best Actress award at the country’s most prestigious film festival, thanks to this movie.
The following months were peaceful.
Simone also completed filming the fantasy drama.
On that particular day, she suddenly noticed dark clouds gathering over the outskirts of Cebros, signaling an impending heavy rain.
Opening the window, she was taken aback by three interconnected clouds.
As expected, the storm was approaching
She reached for her phone and dialed Bailey’s number but couldn’t get through.
Bailey certainly knew how to make an impression.
She called Joseph first and then drove to the Cloudmist Observatory.
The Cloudmist Observatory was still bustling with pilgrims.
As the rain started to drizzle, the pilgrims sought shelter in a few buildings under the guidance of the spiritual leader’s apprentice.
Simone entered the Cloudmist Observatory with an umbrella as the rain grew heavier.
At that moment, no one was nearby, or else they would have indeed been surprised.
Despite the heavy rain, not even her shoes got wet.
Just then, Master Sage’s senior apprentice appeared, also holding an umbrella.
Surprisedly, he looked at Simone and asked, “Junior, why are you here?”
