Jasmine was at a loss. How could she be facing such a massive issue when Master Lennard had already worked to change her fortune?

Suddenly, the voice on the other end of the phone said, “Miss Moore, there’s nothing we can do right now. The other party is insisting on immediate compensation, and they refuse to accept any of the goods.”

Jasmine quickly responded, “Are you absolutely sure? Can you confirm this with them once more?”

The representative replied promptly, “I’ve already asked them for clarification. They’ve checked the products twice and maintain that they fall far short of their expectations.”

Without hesitation, Jasmine exclaimed, “I need you to review our export records right away and identify who was responsible for this batch of goods! I want answers, and I want them now!”

Next, she instructed, “As for our partners in the United States, I want you to delay any actions as much as possible. Send a few people over there to investigate the situation thoroughly.”

“Understood, Miss Moore,” came the reply.

After ending the call, Jasmine wore a puzzled expression as she turned to Master Lennard. “Master Lennard, it looks like I’m facing yet another unfortunate event. If I can’t resolve this, I might lose over five hundred million dollars! Didn’t you say you had reversed my fortune?”

Master Lennard averted his gaze and replied vaguely, “You need time to shed your bad luck and misfortunes. This isn’t something that changes overnight.”

Feeling unconvinced, Jasmine pressed on, “Even if it takes time for my fortune to improve, how could I receive such terrible news right after you claimed to have changed my fortune?”

In that moment, her phone rang. It was Mr. Lambeth, her business partner from Hong Kong.

“Hello, Mr. Lambeth!” Jasmine answered quickly.

“Miss Moore,” he responded coldly. “We’ve discussed it and decided to end all collaborations with the Moore family. We want to unilaterally dissolve our partnership.”

“Dissolve our partnership?!” Jasmine exclaimed, panic rising in her voice. “Mr. Lambeth, surely you can see we’re superior in every way compared to the other party! Continuing our partnership would be far more beneficial for you…”

Mr. Lambeth chuckled before replying, “Honestly, my father consulted a Feng Shui master regarding our fortune. The master indicated that the Moore family’s fortune is incompatible with the Lambeth family’s. Continuing our partnership would jeopardize our fortune. Therefore, we must terminate our relationship. I’m sorry, Miss Moore.”

With that, he hung up.

This was unexpected…

Jasmine had hoped to leverage this opportunity to elevate the Moore family’s status, but instead, she was met with disheartening setbacks.

Meanwhile, Master Lennard felt a rising sense of panic. His initial intention had been to deceive Jasmine for his own gain and then leave quickly. Now, just moments after his ritual, Jasmine was beset by even more misfortune.

Realizing the urgency of his situation, he thought it best to leave immediately. “Miss Moore,” he began, “you must understand that changing one’s fortune takes time. Please remain calm. I assure you that tomorrow will bring improvement. If there’s nothing else I can assist you with, I’ll take my leave.”

With that, Master Lennard moved towards the exit.

However, Jasmine called out, “Wait! Master Lennard, there’s clearly something wrong here. Why am I facing two major issues right after your ritual? I demand a proper explanation!”

As she spoke, a sharp pain shot through her lower abdomen, nearly causing her to scream in agony as she struggled to maintain her balance against the wall.

She was barely able to stand, relying on the television for support.

Confused, she wondered what was happening. Why was she…

Before she could process it, another wave of pain hit her abdomen, so severe that her legs felt weak, forcing her to grip the television even tighter to stay upright.

Suddenly, a loud noise erupted as the metal bracket holding the television to the wall gave way!
