Zachery saw it all.
He even felt the urge to kill Wilfred!
He said gently, “If someone has too much good luck, it can turn bad. I’ll give you half of mine.”
As he spoke, he raised his right hand and placed it on Josephine’s shoulder.
It felt like comfort, but also as if he was really transferring some luck to her.
His palm was very warm.
Josephine could feel an irresistible heat spreading from her shoulder and back throughout her body, as if all the dispirited cells inside her were being set alight.
Zachery withdrew his hand and said mysteriously, “You’ll have good luck very soon.”
Josephine was amused by his childish gesture.
As she laughed, her eyes drifted toward the distant sea of city lights.
Zachery observed her. “Did you go see any apartments at Opal Heights?”
Josephine shook her head.
After all, the money from Mr. Z would have to be repaid. She had already spent enough without knowing his true intentions, and Opal Heights was something she really didn’t dare

Josephine’s expression was calm, but deep inside, it felt as if a bubble had burst.
She ignored that strange feeling and turned away first.
Zachery called out to her and tossed something over.
Josephine caught it with one hand, right on target.
It was a gold bell shaped like a persimmon.
“Give it a shake, and something good will happen.” That was what Zachery said.
Before going to bed, Josephine picked up the gold bell with a sense of reverence.
She even bowed devoutly. “Bless me! May all my wishes come true!”
Then she gave it a few vigorous shakes.
Her fingertips trembling slightly, she opened the app.

There were too many comments for Josephine to reply. She just quietly liked a few of them.
She turned off her phone, picked up the lucky persimmon bell, and the corners of her lips lifted slightly.
Tonight, she would finally get a good night’s sleep.

President’s office at Novo Tech.
Wilfred irritably loosened his tie. He had already spent five million to limit Josephine’s account traffic.
Unexpectedly, the operations director of the social platform refunded the five million.
