Chapter 415: An Eye for an Eye
Jesse Jennings opened his mouth, wanting to retort but was powerless.
He was just a bit shocked, wondering how Thea Shaw knew about Mr. Moody.
The fact that Regina Shelby sought fortune telling from Mark Moody was also kept from others, only he and Regina Shelby knew.
Thea Shaw: "See, no wonder you’re just an agent, your acting is way worse than Regina Shelby’s."
A slight probe and he was exposed.
Of course, there was also the fact that Jesse Jennings was naturally nervous seeing Thea Shaw.
Jesse Jennings’ fingers subconsciously clenched into a fist, he stared intently at Thea Shaw, and after a long moment of frustration, he spoke: "How did you know?"
This matter with Mark Moody was supposed to be secretive, and Thea Shaw had never even met him, so how did she deduce his dealings with Mark Moody?
Thea Shaw didn’t hide anything, solving everything in four words: "I have wide connections."
Jesse Jennings: "..."
He was left speechless.
Thea Shaw smiled as she patted Jesse Jennings on the shoulder: "Just like Regina Shelby could tell you about me doing her fortune-telling, someone told me about Mark Moody doing hers, it’s not surprising, right? Tell me, how did you think teaming up with Mark Moody could ever deal with me? Didn’t he remind you that people in The Mystic Circle aren’t to be trifled with lightly?"
"Aren’t you even scared I might use your birth chart for something? Even without using that, there are countless ways in this world to make someone unlucky."
Thea Shaw seemed genuinely puzzled: "I have no grudge against you, was it necessary for you to join forces with Mark Moody to go against me?"
"..."
If he had known this earlier, he wouldn’t have helped Mark Moody with this kind of thing.
Jesse Jennings could only say bitterly: "Mr. Moody has a taboo against doing fortune-telling with others."
In other words, he simply didn’t want himself and others to be called in for fortune-telling together.
Doing so would allow comparisons.
It was also regarded as a sign of disrespect from the client.
"Just because there’s a taboo in fortune-telling, you think of dealing with peers?" Thea Shaw scoffed, "That only proves he’s not capable enough, that’s why he thinks of squeezing others out. That’s the kind of tactic villains use in dramas, don’t you have the slightest clue?"
Jesse Jennings was startled.
He didn’t dare suspect Mr. Moody.
Jesse Jennings so easily selling out Mark Moody undoubtedly had no other concern, he merely said: "Mr. Moody wouldn’t admit it."
Since Mark Moody dared to hint, he was definitely confident he wouldn’t be exposed.
Even if Jesse Jennings betrayed him, it wouldn’t be able to deal with him, ultimately there’s no evidence.
Even Jesse Jennings’ admission is pointless.
Mark Moody didn’t even mention Thea Shaw’s name during his hint.
Thea Shaw chuckled: "I don’t need him to admit it, I’m here today mainly to see you. With Regina Shelby dead, the police are suspicious of me because of what you did, how do you think I should handle this situation?"
The whistleblower was Jesse Jennings.
Jesse Jennings shuddered: "What do you want to do?"
Before facing Thea Shaw, he thought Thea Shaw was just average.
But now, after one reminder from Thea Shaw, he realized what he had done.
They’re both people of The Mystic Circle, if Mark Moody could have means of threat, Thea Shaw naturally could too.
And Jesse Jennings was just an ordinary agent.
His previous reliance was merely on thinking Thea Shaw didn’t know it was him, but now she’s found him, hiding anything was meaningless.
Thea Shaw’s smile spread, looking sweet and charmingly deceptive: "I’m a kind-hearted person, what could I possibly do to you? I just want you to return the tactics you used on me back to Mr. Moody."
