Bound by Magic, Married by Fate novel Chapter 122

Sonia eventually came to Azure Bay under the pretense of thanking Lucius.

To avoid displeasing him, she explained at the outset that she had indeed traced the whereabouts of Phantom Healer. However, she just hadn't found a way to contact them yet.

Afraid that Lucius would press for more details, she hurriedly changed the topic. "I heard that you're quite interested in one of my family's old properties, Mr. White. If you're considering buying it, I could ask my father about the price he'd be willing to sell it for."

Those words did succeed in catching Lucius' attention. "Where exactly is this old property you mentioned located?"

Sonia gave the precise address.

Hearing that answer caused Lucius to frown slightly.

The news that he wanted to acquire that property hadn't been made public. Only a few of his close friends knew about it.

Funnily enough, the one who had first suggested the idea was none other than Gustavo.

When his father had just passed away, Gustavo had given him some advice.

Although the White family was wealthy and powerful, its power had begun to fade over the past century.

Gustavo had analyzed the White family's fortune and predicted the family would lose its former glory within three generations.

The Harrington family was the perfect example.

If not for the disruptions in their estate, Dale would have been one of the most powerful figures in Windmere.

But their luck waned, and their prestige deteriorated. The once-glorious Harrington family started to fall behind the other rising families.

Gustavo said that if the White family didn't want to follow the same path, they needed to obtain that old property.

That mansion was over a hundred years old, and its original owner had spent a fortune hiring a geomancy expert to set up a wealth-gathering array within the property.

Whoever owned it would supposedly guarantee generations of wealth, but only if a proper ritual was held to create a resonance between the house and its owner.

Unfortunately, the Woodward family didn't know how to make use of it. They had sat on this treasure for over 20 years, leaving it abandoned and wasted.
