Ethan Sterling took the newspaper without even needing to unfold it, as he could see the photo occupying half the page right on the front page headlines.
The protagonist of the photo seed to be a Daoist, holding a horsetail whisk and a calligraphy brush, his mouth half-open as if reciting a spell.
[Conducting a Soul Suppressing Array at midnight in the courtyard, what is Representative Jonathan Redgrave up to?]
"Soul Suppressing Array?" Ethan Sterling looked at the newspaper with a stern expression.
"Ignorance." Nathan Ayers didn’t believe in it but still dutifully explained to Ethan Sterling the information he had just found: "It is said that this array can permanently suppress all ghosts within its boundary under the array’s focal point, making their souls dissipate after going through forty-nine trials, never to reincarnate, which is considered a very vicious array."
"What guilty deed has the Redgrave Family done?"
"I’ve contacted almost all the dia that reported this, and a few leading reporters claid they seed to hear the old Daoist muttering a na while performing the ritual." Nathan Ayers paused for a mont: "Seraphina Redgrave."
Upon hearing this na, Ethan Sterling’s calm, dark eyes grew dim, and he spoke, "Se-ra-phi-na Redgrave."
The three ordinary words were slowly uttered by his deep voice, adding a touch of ambiguity.
Ethan Sterling rely repeated Seraphina Redgrave’s na, yet Nathan Ayers couldn’t help but tremble slightly.
After a long while, the malicious aura around Ethan Sterling dissipated, and he chuckled softly: "Nathan Ayers, if I were to die, there would probably be soone who’d set up an array to suppress underground, never to reincarnate either."
Nathan Ayers replied dismissively, "That won’t happen."
"But now there are already quite a few who ardently wish for my death." Ethan Sterling said.
"Those people hate you, resent you, yet can do nothing about you. Before they can act, you’ve already obliterated those pests."
Nathan Ayers’s expression was serious, as if stating an undeniable fact.
"You’re right."
A flicker of approval passed through Ethan Sterling’s eyes as he stood up, buttoning his suit jacket slowly, speaking each word deliberately: "I’m the one who suppresses others, no one can touch , and no one can touch my people either."
As soon as the words fell, Ethan Sterling stepped out of the villa door.
Nathan Ayers hadn’t reacted yet, standing in place, savoring what Ethan Sterling had just said.
President Sterling’s people?
Did President Sterling recently acquire so important subordinates? Or was President Sterling referring to him?

By the next morning, Mia Redgrave was close to collapse.
She was wearing expensive silk pajamas, yet her hairstyle was disheveled from just sitting up from the bed. With trembling fingers, she opened her Weibo, where the latest post was flooded with malicious comnts.
Those comnts were all unseemly personal attacks.
[The good persona you built up before has completely collapsed, ugh.]
[Setting up a Soul Suppressing Array in your own yard, it’s obvious you’ve killed soone and fear the victim turning into a ghost for revenge.]
[Is Mia Redgrave still alive today?]
Previously, her Weibo was full of fans showering her with praise!
Mia Redgrave was so furious she threw her phone to the ground, her face twisted with anger.
"Bang!"
The sound of glass breaking ca from the window.
Mia Redgrave jumped from the bed to the floor in fright, looking towards where the sound ca from, where a sizable stone had smashed through the window, even breaking the glass.
These maniacs...
Mia Redgrave hastily tidied her hair and went downstairs, finding Jonathan Redgrave with a grim expression on the sofa and Lena Lynch on the verge of tears.
"Daddy, what’s going on?" Mia Redgrave looked pitiable, "Why did those netizens suddenly start attacking ?"
"I’ve already held a press conference, saying we were just trying to pray for the people’s welfare, but misplaced our trust in a charlatan."
Jonathan Redgrave’s face was livid: "I clearly paid off all the dia attending the press conference, but the trend isn’t declining at all, instead it’s getting worse, as if soone’s trying to sabotage our Redgrave Family behind our backs."
"Is it your political enemies, Daddy?" Mia Redgrave asked.
Representatives often fight tooth and nail due to differing opinions.
"It probably is." Jonathan Redgrave said with a grim face, "These opportunistic worms."
