Dom hurriedly said, "It's not that I don't believe you. I just wanted to make sure because it's important."
"Don't worry. I totally understand why you're being careful. The jade statue is expensive, after all. Did you bring the necklace?" asked Wilbur with a smile.
Sammy hurriedly took out the necklace from her purse and passed it to Wilbur. She did not dare to wear the necklace anymore ever since Wilbur confirmed there was something wrong with it.
She wanted to throw it away, but she considered how troublesome it would be if she needed the necklace to break the curse, so she kept it far away from her.
Wilbur took the necklace and transferred his spirit energy into the red ruby pendant.
A curse immediately fought back with negative energy. However, it was instantly overpowered by Wilbur because of his strong spirit energy.
When his spirit energy infiltrated the curse, he also saw something in his consciousness.
He saw a girl in red clothes kneeling in front of a middle-aged man while holding the necklace.
The middle-aged man had a face full of beard and a slim body. He took the necklace and recited a curse. A gray spiritual energy was transferred into the pendant after some time.
The girl in red clothes kept thanking the middle-aged man, and she instantly transferred money to him. Then, she left looking excited.
Wilbur retrieved his spirit energy and looked at Sammy. He asked, "Is your best friend Ria Quinn?"
Sammy hurriedly replied, "Yes. She's a top-tier singer now, but I…"
Wilbur sighed and asked, "You two were probably competitors back then, right?"
Sammy was baffled before replying slowly, "We were just starting out back then, and we signed with the same agency at the same time. Things were going well for both of us, I was only doing slightly better than she was."
Wilbur said calmly, "That's it. She was afraid you were going to outshine her, so she came up with this cruel idea to curse you with bad luck."
"That's outrageous! She's my best friend! How could she do this to me?" cried Sammy while covering her face.
Wilbur said, "I've seen countless families turn against each other over greed. What you're experiencing is nothing compared to that."
Wilbur nodded and said, "That's what I thought. Infiltrating the soul wouldn't be easy either."
"But he must be hard to find. I could look for Ria, but I'm afraid she won't admit it," said Dom.
Wilbur smiled and said, "I discovered Ria Quinn, so of course I'd know the name of the person who placed the curse. I'll handle it."
"That's awesome, sir. We'll entrust everything to you," said Dom in a respectful tone.
Wilbur smiled and took out his phone to call Beverly.
"Hello, Deacon Penn. This is your handler, Beverly Torres. How may I help you?"
"Please help me find someone named Moose Chet. He's a slender person with a beard, and he should be Maudian too. I want to know his location."
"Alright. I'll look for him right away."
